I bet Ward Cunningham is really good at using Claude, he is a big believer in pair programming. I even did a session with him in Frontier, doing stuff with the outliner.

Bij de Open State Foundation (waar ik voorzitter ben) zoeken we een nieuwe directeur! Herken jij je in het profiel (PDF), en ben je net zo bevlogen als ons team om digitale transparantie bij de overheid te bevorderen en onze democratie te versterken? Dan horen we heel graag van je! Nadrukkelijk ook als je vindt […]

Here is a little marketing pop quiz for you: the company you work for wants to increase the prices of its products across the board urgently — and by a significant amount — because key components are suddenly more expensive. Which strategy do you choose? Wait until there is a good time, like the next […]⌥ Permalink

Claude is a brain, very different from ours and when we work together we humans have access to capabilities that work really well with building large software products. And that's a huge understatement. Most remarkable thing. I am a programmer with 50+ years experience. Most of the discussion between people who use the AI tools and those that condemn them are not productive because the opponents of AI don't have understand how these things actually work, or if they do that understanding is not reflected in their arguments. I recommend starting an academic dialog, among people who don't have conflicts of interest, to accurately record this discussion based on facts, for the record, so when people ask how we did this transition, there will actually be some footprints to follow.

Good morning sports fans!

The Bear season 5, the show's last season, premieres on Hulu at 9PM EST today.

In reply to Setting up Webmentions by Alex Hyett It’s always good to see a blogger adding Webmentions to their site. Cross-blog conversations are to me what blogging is about. And Webmentions are a useful piece of plumbing to make it so. If your set-up works, then this should show up at your end. Blog […]

Jeff Johnson: Several weeks ago, John Gruber of Daring Fireball asked me whether I could reproduce an issue he was seeing in Safari: when a web page is focused, the Copy menu item in the main menu is always enabled, regardless of whether there’s anything selected in the ...

Wednesday waves. Photo + video. From the viewpoint on Highway 101, so more traffic sounds than ocean sounds. It’s neat to see the fog receding after being blanketed the last 24 hours.

The WebKit blog (back during WWDC): If you look through the lists of features and fixes in Safari 27, you’ll notice that, although there are 58 brand-new features and 525 fixes — the largest pile of fixes in any Safari release in recent memory — most of what is released ...

When an AI agent tries to complete a task that requires a new account, it hits a wall: the sign-up form. There’s no standard for how an agent registers a user with an app on their behalf.

auth.md is a file you host at your domain that tells agents how to register your users, which flows you support, what scopes you expose, and how credentials get issued. Think robots.txt, but for agent registration. It composes existing OAuth standards.

Cloudflare, Firecrawl, and Resend have already adopted it.

Timing is extremely important in photography, that's why we should always be ready. Just in case the conditions we were waiting for finally happen.

Austin in the 1950s. I saw the premiere of Malick’s A Hidden Life at the Paramount in 2019. Congress looks a little different now. 

Speaking of title sequences, here’s a post on Disney’s. 

For anyone who has spent time at Penn Station — and, for my sins, I’ve spent a good bit of time there over the years — it’s always a shock to be reminded what it used to look like. 

When writing code with Claude you really have to be skeptical when it says it just found the problem, but you have no idea what it's saying, chances are pretty good it's just a word salad excuse for not reading all the code necessary to have an opinion that matters. Actually debugging software isn't about opinions, it's about proof. When you start clutching at straws until one works you just added another level of bug that will eventually bit you in the butt and you'll still have to solve the original one. Uncorrected I'm pretty sure you wouldn't want to trust the code it writes, but I guess that's why people have two or more instances playing different roles? For now I'm the one that questions its sanity, more politely though. ;-)

Kickstarter campaign from Jason Snell and Myke Hurley to fund a 50-episode narrative podcast on Apple’s 50-year history. (Actually, with stretch goals, more than 50 episodes.) The campaign has already hit its primary funding goal but there’s a week left in the campaign and more stretch goals to hit. Jason and I spoke at length about Designed in California on the latest episode of my podcast, and like I said there — if you enjoy podcasts like The Talk Show and Upgrade and aren’t backing this campaign, you’re not hooked up right. Really looking forward to this when episodes start dropping.
