Another little corner of the internet. Anything using fixed-width fonts and without pictures has surely got to be promising in this day and age, surely...

Gave up on github after the acquisition. Very glad I did, given the unsurprising decline since then.
github.com/Aeres-u99
I have created a small tool, codeatlas, that basically generates an index to codebase that your llm can lookup syper quick, github.com/Aeres-u99
there is also a cbz->pdf converter that I wrote for eink devices which is nice
My friend won 2nd place in the pc demo competition at Evoke in Kรถln this weekend, with his ascii-inspired demo Glyphnosis. Really happy for him! ๐ฅ
I find myself building bespoke tooling for my own and workflows these days, not only because of the obvious reason of software being so much cheaper to build, but also because there are SO MANY options for solving any given problem that it feels impossible to evaluate all of them.
If it's not a crucial piece of tech for a work problem then it often feels like paving my own way is both cheaper mentally (kind of amazing that's true these days) and probably a better fit.
It will become increasingly harder to find niche markets for software when those people can just build it themselves exactly how they want it. In the end, people want to accomplish tasks, and the AI is going to be building the software on-the-fly exactly for that task, why do we need generic software that may or may not be a fit?
Yeah. It makes me think that protocols for exchanging data between apps will become even more important in that landscape. But maybe, not - maybe each exchange is another bespoke AI-driven implementation?
Protocols, infrastructure, containers, those kinds of things. I was actually playing around with an idea for a minimal markup language + runtime that can be utilized by AI to spin up apps more easily, and brainstorming it with ChatGPT, I have a feeling something like that will appear soon to complement MCP.
"If you don't think of yourself years ago as an idiot... Perhaps it is because you still are one."
In that spirit I started to write down my own thoughts. I think I am meant to call it a blog. Years from now I can read my old words and cringe at them.
