Lamb of God, a true classic, This album takes me back to high school. I don’t think I listened to the sacrament album as much, but “The Ashes of the Wake” was my jam for awhile, particularly hourglass.

💭 Jonathan Blow Made Me Quit My Job | Prime Reacts - YouTube

damn Johnathan Blow is not afraid to give you the cold hard opinions. If you want to be good you need to spend your early most formative years doing hard things, because you will not do it later, then goes on to say you should not do anything related to web development during that time as it will rot your brain.

💭 Why Agent Harness Layer is DYING - YouTube

-

Thorsten is always a great listen with well thought out answers. I thought the advice “all you have to be is good” from his is so great, so many people focus too hard on credentials and certificates, they miss the time in the saddle and raw, just being good at what you do. They talk a lot about industry trends and that ai/llms have been here long enough to see that they are the new iphone. In some way you need to learn to work with them. Much of the minutia is churn, it will change and we will forget about it in six months. Working at amp right now is really trying to focus on releasing exactly the right thing and not everything. We’ve been given these great models that can churn out poc very quickly, it is our job to focus on what the right thing to adopt is.

"All you have to be is good"

Not sure if this is a quote from somewhere but thought it was some interesting advice that @thorstenball received when he was starting into web development. He asked a friend already in the industry if he thought he had a shot. He had no degree, no credentials, no experience at the time.

remember rule 4 #

I almost for got Rules 4 today, rollout when smooth late in the day right before a vacation day (terrible time to deploy I admit not my clearest plan). Race conditions are a b****, all around on this one. The app I was concerned about won the race to deploy first and was fine by itself, then another app had a race condition inside itself that killed it

almost left tokens on the table #

Almost didn't get through those gippity tokens this week, woke up yesterday with 50% and a day to use them, cut full 5.4 loose on a big project that needs a lot of work an it gobbled em right up throughout the day ran out just before bed.

Can You Feel the Slop #

Do you ever vibe code out a POC, and you can just feel the shitty code underneath? Every change causes 3 things to break and wires get crossed all over the place. Sometimes I just want to write the code again. Maybe its time to slow down.

approve rm #

Hot take, if you are unwilling to approve rm you should rethink your workflow, git state, or backups.

Note

This is meant for normal project work with an agent working in the context of a single project, with directory level access to the project.
