The number one reason to make a company is so you can make swag. I haven't bought clothes in 3 years.

Folks...just build your software. If it's good, people will pay you for it. I don't need to hear about your AI workflow anymore. I get it, you have the bot write it.

A lot of people, when presented with a problem, think "I know, I'll use AI". Then they just stop thinking so...ya know.... problem solved.

@bcantrill.bsky.social @ahl.bsky.social do you have a canonical list of books about companies to read?

I'm glad AI is finally making the startup capital requirements for software non-zero. The software industry can mature into a real industry where incumbents can solidify their position by making it unnecessarily expensive to compete with them. Next? Regulation requiring software written with AI!

Do you think one day they will invent a PA system for an airport where you can understand what they are saying?

This has made my code much better for me, as a human, because when I don't like how a API looks I can quickly make it how I like it. Yes, it might generate a lot of lines of code in that refactoring, but that count isn't really the point.

For me, a huge value is not really measured in how many lines I generate, but that I can do these really intrusive refactorings that before I couldn't because I would be spending too much time modifying every usage to fix it for the refactoring.

Almost all the LI posts I see about AI and coding are about how many lines are generated with it. "I write 100 gazillion SLOC last night while high on lead paint, everything is changing!"

Most people salt their fries. But here's a little trick I picked up while backpacking the Okavango: salt your ketchup instead. It will stick way better.

Has AI made me more productive? Absolutely, yes. I can do the same amount with way less time so I can finally catch up on watchin' mah stories without my boss knowing.

Have you ever tried to use a keyboard while wearing socks on your hands? It's really hard. Probably why nobody does it...hrmmmm...

3. If you're using Terraform remote state data source, Stategraph treats all of your infrastructure as one giant state file, following cross-state dependencies.

2. Did a plan against a 100 meg Terraform root module (100 megs of HCL) in 70 seconds. It takes Terraform almost 3 hours to do the same thing.

We just did the Stategraph Velocity demo. Highlights:
1. Showed two users applying changes to the same state file at the same exact time and BOTH SUCCEEDED. No overlapping resources? No problem!

I'm all for using LLMs to go faster if they help you go faster, but as CTO, I am responsible for ensuring we can develop the product, which is why I still find it important that my LLM produce output for human consumption and not for itself.

Local models may change this one day but they don't really work well on my laptop, it takes longer for a local LLM to do a change than me.

As a business owner, if Anthropic decides to ban my account for some unknown reason, or has a serious outage, I still need to be able to ship changes. I still need to be able to understand the code.

Like everyone in the world, my feeds are full of posts by AI Maximizers. I do use AI but I am not a Maximizer for the basic reason: I am responsible for the code, at the end of the day.

Plur1bus is a vision of our LLM future. A sycophantic unibrain pretending to be personalized to each one of us.

If your business is built on top of another company's model, you're probably dead-man-walking.

For me, a big impact of LLMs is not production code gen but testing code gen. I really...really..really hate to write tests, so being able to have the LLM do it and I spot check it is great for me.
