Saying LLMs are worthless/pernicious because they sometimes make mistakes & is causing a general decline in reading skills (true) is like saying Google Maps is worthless/pernicous just because it sometimes gives you bad directions & has caused a general decline in human navigation skills (also true)

how has AI code-gen changed your team’s approach to collaboration? how have you adapted your team workflows? what are the second order effects?

kinda messed up that steve jobs is known for the "bicycle for the mind" metaphor when it was bill atkinson who built hypercard and steve jobs who killed it

I am building end-user programming for AI agents because limiting what gets built to the tiny group of people with technical knowledge limits us as a species.

I love the way this book vaguely feels like it was written for grade school students at the same time that it’s a universal reference point for the most intelligent people I know

how to design for emergence

1. become intimately, brutally familiar with the real world problem space—develop an in situ fingerfeel for it, dunk your whole body in it

what if "you can just do things" was an app?

Whole Earth AI is a project-based learning tool

I built it to explore 2 questions:
1. what new ux patterns do LLMs enable?
2. what might the montessori method applied to software for adults look like?

here's what I learned

please dm 🫶

I like it over here and I don’t blame anyone for wanting to be here but i’m also not totally convinced that all the sane people cordoning themselves off in a separate smaller network is helping the insanity of our overall situation

who is exploring what end-user programming means in the AI era?

I want to find the folk thinking beyond vibe coding

It's too easy to censor scientific data. We should decentralize scientific data somewhat.

I'm building a simple tool for censorship-resistant data archiving. It uses the same tech as Bluesky. github.com/gordonbrande...
