Up until recently I've felt that unit testing was only worth the effort for critical code paths you could isolate and verify thoroughly. Once you moved beyond that, end-to-end tests and complex environments seemed like overkill with rapidly diminishing returns.

I enjoy having an AI write system design docs that need to be critiqued and then I critique them and get feedback on what I missed

Did you know you can connect a Livebook notebook to a running Phoenix app?
Apparently, many of us don't.
Useful for:
- internal tools
- runbooks
- and engineering support
Here's how you can do it. 👇

1/ A longtime Wired editor just wrote a mush-brained essay about how he totally missed the political rot of Silicon Valley (& still doesn't get it).
But in the late 1990s, a Wired journalist warned of a toxic ideology bubbling up from tech. Paulina Borsook has largely been erased. Let's change that

The NeXTlevel was NeXT Software's first handheld device, eagerly awaited but canned just two weeks from release when Apple purchased NeXT and chose not to pursue gaming. All 250,000 release devices were pulled from channels and unceremoniously rolled into landfill out northwest of Dubbo.

I used Claude Code to search through my entire @obsidian.md for certain phrases (and include common variants and misspellings) in both path and node contents. Then I told it to send the entire list of matched files to a running neovim instance in another tmux window as an arglist. Amazed.

A friend has noticed that AI agents don’t like the word “chonky.” Several times now they’ve tried to remove it from the code unprompted, both during code review and locally.
