Claude code is by far the most fun way to vibe code something, and the quickest way to burn through money - spent 20 mins at the airport vibe coding a UI and API for myself, and managed to burn through $5 doing it 💸

It's always refreshing being back in Sweden, knowing I can be on-call while driving through forest and open landscapes in the middle of nowhere, because there's still perfect 5G coverage here

Absolute nightmare happened this evening: my watch wasn't charged and I had to do a workout without tracking it. Worse yet, it meant I couldn't upload it to Strava so everyone I know can see how much better I am

All you need is Postgres
Inspired by the post on HN yesterday about running graph queries on Postgres with recursive CTEs, my coworker installed the SQL/PGQ patches locally and ported all the examples to this native graph query language coming (eventually) to Postgres!

I can finally forget tar -xzvf
Such a great idea. Now I can finally let my brain forget the many different tools and flags for working with disparate compression formats.

The problem with "move fast and break things" is that most people underestimate the cost and probability of "break things" occurring. Works well when you're a startup, I suspect less so when you're the literal government processing a few trillion dollars annually, but let's see

I really wish Strava's Athlete Intelligence was better. They have all my training data across ~10 years. Yet, all it can tell me is that I had consistent pace in my run?
Feels like a tool that has so much potential to become great, but which right now is quite useless

Naming a wine bar with clear Italian inspiration and then serving mostly French wines feels wrong. I feel cheated and happy at the same time - I would've wanted French anyway, but walked in expecting Italian. Someone tell me how to feel.

Been spending some time this holiday season creating a project from scratch using Cursor. 90% of the code is written by me chatting to the IDE, and a core part of the workflow has become to update the `.cursorrules` file when I want to change how code is written!

I'd highly encourage everyone to do some coding with AI this holiday season - it's like when you have a couple drinks with a coworker and tell them how to build an app, except the coworker is sober and know what they're doing.
Perfectly suited for these Swedish winter ales is all I'm saying 🍻

Playing with Cursor a bit more this holiday and it really is a delight to tell it a really big thing like "build an admin dashboard to view all orgs", and watch it go off and run like 30 prompts on its own

AI to refactor and duplicate code is *so good*. We have an interactive command that's been a bit flaky due to state management. I'll definitely fix that, but my first step is to build a non-interactive version of the terminal UI, and AI is great at "write a non-interactive version of this" 🏎️
