Did some work on my own website, happy with the new look πŸ˜… trying something different style wise. Love how easy it is to turn some random idea, theme to code. #ai #webdev

Performance paranoia, that thing you feel when using claude while wondering if it has been quietly lobotomised. May be just me but it feels like claude opus has become dumber over the last couple of days... πŸ˜žπŸ€– #claude #agents #agenticlife

Does anyone else find it odd that two influential engineers at competing AI labs are all hyping agent β€˜loops’ that burn massive tokens?

Using @PlanetScale database for a side project, was an interesting onboarding experience, got a bit lost to start. No idea if I am holding it correctly with AWS lambda. Appreciate not having to set up pgbouncer! Dashboard is easy to understand, not that I am stressing it πŸ˜…πŸš€

Had a great time at @aiDotEngineer Melbourne last week, lots of inspiring talks, especially enjoyed the notion talk by @sarahmsachs and started building an agent after talking to @GeoffreyHuntley Hung out with @buildkite colleagues and caught up with many familiar faces.πŸ˜…πŸŽ‰πŸ€–

Used up all my API calls for GPT 5.5 on @cursor_ai sub and now using composer 2.5, and I am still working away fine. πŸ˜…πŸš€

Was using @testcontainers with a fresh container per integration test. 🐒 Switched to a single shared container resetting the DB between tests using a Postgres template: CREATE DATABASE test_db WITH TEMPLATE test_template; 9x faster tests. πŸš€πŸ˜… #postgres #testcontainers

Cleanroom v0.10.0 is out. Shared Cleanroom servers are a lot more usable now: OIDC auth, owner-scoped access, DeepSec hardening, and suspend/resume with automatic wake-on-use. github.com/buildkite/cleanro…

The Cursor CLI is quite good to use however it seems to be stuck at 1.0.0, with some overlap with latest cursor 3.x features, but not all. History and some MCP features seem borked, even though they share the same config path... Seems disjointed or just me? @cursor_ai #ai 😞

Currently learning Rust so I can hack on MCP, and Agent related projects. Biggest challenge after getting the basics is just building momentum enough to start using the language day to day on a project. Once I get over that hump it should be fine. #rust

It still blows my mind when I get an agent to run a security review, and it switches seamlessly to destroying my service and providing a curated list of issues. Especially given it just wrote this code, feels like I am getting farmed here. AI treadmill life.πŸπŸ€”πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ #ai #agents

Sunday has evolved into coffee, baking and learning new programming languages. Currently rewriting the same thing in Rust, and Zig, really interesting comparing solutions, build tools while using an LLM to learn rather than just produce. #AI #sunday
