starting to think maybe "being willing to talk confidently for four hours continuously despite not knowing the first thing about literally anything" is not expertise.

I find it difficult to believe that the party that’s been rolling back environmental protections nonstop suddenly cares about water testing. 🙄

@cheeaun happy birthday phanpy! I use it every day! Love it! I don't use the catchup feature. I just use it as a "river of news" reader and writer!

Nobody ever accused Jonathan Gold of identity politics. It’s not fun being a not default person in American food media

If you want to spend $80 on a single roast chicken that’s great. But people who don’t want that aren’t trying to push an agenda. They just don’t want $80 roast chicken

I love the Indonesian food words.
‘Jajanan’: Jalan Jalan + Makanan (food you eat when you are walking around, like at a night market)

For my last few days of my Advent of Agentic Humps, I blended 50 different language ecosystem's HTTP clients to brew an OCaml Requests library. Agents figured out the random quirks needed for a client by getting advice from our friends in Java, Haskell, C, C#, Python https://anil.recoil.org/notes/aoah-2025-13 And tied it all together today by letting an agent code up a Karakeep OCaml API against a live instance with an API key, using jsont/requests to make quite a clean bit of code. https://anil.recoil.org/notes/aoah-2025-14

Here's Emil's 17 step guide to how he used VS Code agent mode plus Claude 3.7 Sonnet, Gemini Pro 3 and Claude Opus to build the new library - it's a fantastic case study in using LLMs for serious, prediction quality code (vibe engineering, not vibe coding) […]
