This a hilarious and insightful read. It shows what actually happens when current LLMs with a fair degree of autonomy are put into a setting with a group of capable intelligent humans.

We Let AI Run Our Office Vending Machine. It Lost Hundreds of Dollars.
An AI agent ran a snack operation in the WSJ newsroom. It gave away a free PlayStation, ordered a live fish—and taught us lessons about the future of AI.

The complete Bayeux Tapestry has finally been released and proves that Bishop Odo had absolutely nothing to do with the illegal Norman invasion of England.

Thank, that’s an interesting insight. I’d assumed from media coverage of Trump rhetoric, that Americans would be less supportive of providing assistance to Ukraine than the British. Yet, it would appear that they could be, if anything slightly more supportive.

I had a series of layout issues with Safari producing different results to Chrome and Firefox with model overlays. Rather than using Playwrite I gave Claude Opus 4.5 screenshots with instructions drawings that I’d written on them. It iterated through working out fixed very reliably.

I had a reminiscent walk through the forest with Coco (sock eater), listening to all your Who discussions and letting them bring all that British SciFi story telling back into my thinking. Then ended up talking about it with my BBC mate, when out running with our dogs. Thanks Mate!

I came across this lovely #app to play via your #Bluesky account, it works with other #Atmosphere logins too. #Sidetrail is by @danabra.mov, who'd also worked developing on Bluesky itself. Sort of short guided #storytelling. Something to make you smile!

Yes, I've felt that Plex was beginning to function as a thing to drawer you in to connect into somewhat unnecessary paid services too.

Absolutely they have. I'm currently section naming a CAD drawing in part of my screen while Claude Code iterates through an ATProto project I'm working on to the side. It's enabled me to bring together a wide range of moderate level dev skills, to build at a much deeper level.

The image from the outside of the box that my new saw arrived in feels rather like a set of #StarWars #DesthStar plans.
