@lexfridman And those first drafts are improving at an astounding pace. So are the AI ergonomics. Working with @opencode, which gives the agents full bash, web, and LSP powers, has been a blast. Watching the thinking models nail a difficult bug is a revelation. What a time to love computers!

I've written a version of this rant several times, but I didn't write this version. This prompt did: "Write a 6 paragraph essay in the style of DHH about why microservice architectures are bad for small teams."
I followed up with 2x "Make it more polemic", but I didn't change a comma. The emdashes gave it away for some, but without those, I think even fewer would have been able to tell.
And here's the kicker: It's actually pretty good? Take this point: "Instead of reasoning about code, teams reason about failure modes, retries, timeouts, message queues, and versioned payloads. The cognitive load compounds with every new service." Spot on, nicely framed!
What does that mean? Is AI still slop when it makes good points? Or when it produces an essay that resonates with thousands of people in just a few hours?
I've locked the tweet, because I do feel ambivalent about humans unwittingly interacting with AI writing, but why do we? It's not at all clear this isn't just a transitionary phase, like when it felt scary for most to enter this credit card on the early internet.
Here's the the full interaction with the versions produced before prompting for "more polemic": https://t.co/z7lBti14di

Five thousand criminal complaints! Including one for calling Merz a "filthy drunk", which lead to a house search! Such free speech, such strong leader. https://t.co/9SxDcT6LTm

"A majority of French people (54%) and half of Italians (50%) believe the EU is generally heading in the wrong direction... Just 21% of French people and 30% of Italians believe that membership of the EU has made their countries better off." https://t.co/y2mB2RNMRA

This also wouldn't be the first time those angry at X would seek to punish Musk directly, though. Brazil fined SpaceX(?!) when they couldn't collect on X. https://t.co/sKZMedStWq

Now it's possible that both the person receiving the fine (Musk) and a politician responsible for the fine (Loiseau) is confused about who has to pay, but you'd think both would have more insight than most!

Government party just declared support for Denmark stepping out of The European Convention on Nationality from 1997, so criminals with dual citizenship can have their Danish passport revoked upon conviction. Remigration politics are moving fast! https://t.co/x2AoIvGjZ4

The concept of limited liability companies was pioneered by the Dutch in 1602. Fining Musk PERSONALLY for the supposed crimes of X completely undermines this key pillar of capitalism. Insane what the EU is willing to destroy in its zest for speech control.

Apple exodus set to continue. This is the price of keeping a bean counter at the head for so long. Cook's legacy will not improve by dragging his own departure out any longer. Maybe he should do like Ballmer and buy a basketball team?

Remigration is shaping up to be the hottest political topic for the next Danish election. 7/10 Danes want anyone convicted of even minor crimes sent home. Half of the Danes want anyone on social welfare out. Opinions change gradually, then suddenly. https://t.co/041ulHz2Nu

Europe can't fine or regulate its way back to technological relevance. Monopoly interventions must be based on simple economics. Having Brussels design the color of the checkmark is retarded. The DSA, DMA, and even GPDR has got to go. Full reboot required.

The EU slaps X with a $140m fine for "confusing users with blue checkmarks" while its citizens choose to trust X as their news source. Meanwhile, traditional media outlets there will write befuddled stories about the mystery of falling trust in the old institutions.

Apple was overdue a full executive reset. Just need to add Cook to the list. And for a replacement, Forstall is only 56. Time for a comeback?

Fizzy isn't just for us software nerds. It's for everyone with issues. And issues are everywhere, all the time, all over the places. Capturing them, tracking them, and dealing with them really couldn't get much easier!

As much as I wish it was otherwise, the EU's engagement with American tech giants is no longer rooted in a legitimate antitrust interest, but is now equal parts a union-wide censorship operation and a proxy trade war.

If you make open source software, you are the bearer and bringer of gifts. Don't let anyone tell you how to define "open" or "source". Just pick a license, stick to the terms, and tell people they can accept the code with gratitude or they can fuck right off.

Open source is amazing in all it's many shapes and sizes. I use a lot of GPL software, even if I don't care to use that license for my own work. And lots of folks are already contributing to Fizzy under O'Saasy terms. Accept the gifts or don't 🤷♂️ https://t.co/XlaJRj1w31

Open source is when the source is open. Simple as that. The license then determines what rights are given or reserved. The lion's share of my open source work is under MIT, the most permissive license. Love it. I've done none under GPL, because I don't need code dump charity.

It takes a particular kind of hybris to think you can narrow down the definition of "open" and "source" to match your pet interpretation, and believe everyone else just has to bow to that dominion. No.

Love how calling Fizzy open source is triggering some because our MIT-derived O'Saasy License reserves SaaS monetization rights to us as creators. Same nerds will demoan lack of "sustainable OSS" or argue that handing over all changes under GPL is akshually freedom. Hilarious. https://t.co/MGAjCxQnaz

Musk nailed this with his "did you think I was going to be a chill, normal dude" quip on SNL. Big breakthroughs more often than not come from maniacal obsession, unadjusted personalities, and/or arrogant delusions. America nurtures these seeds best. https://t.co/BOjEbK7TU3
