I'm on a big #ClaudeCode kick this week. This interchange felt really sci-fi to me:
"I don't have enough information to answer that question."
"Well, make a tool to get it!"
"I don't have enough information to answer that question."
"Well, make a tool to get it!"

I've been experimenting with Claude Code a lot this past week. I think you'll agree, I've nailed the fine art of prompting.

There's something about #Rust execution model I clearly don't understand. Help me out Rust people - why does this test case pass if I wrap some code in an `if true` block, and fail if I don't?? 😵💫

This is the best recipe instruction I have ever seen in my life. If you need me, I'll be having a nap.

I’m getting far to hung up on the operator precedence of ‘and’, ‘or’ and comma. I can just about guess what they mean, but I don’t *know* what they mean, y’know? 😅

I’m spending the day at a #Snowflake event in west London. I’m told I will NOT get a dollar for every time someone mentions AI, but I will get the chance to get my hands dirty and cut some code, so I should be in the right place. 😁

I'm writing this little machine/conveyor belt simulator in #PureScript. I'm not 100% sure why I'm writing it, but it's a fun little thing to hack on. 🤔
Ah yes, that's why - because it's a fun little thing to hack on. 🙂
