Opinions on things I know nothing about.
Tests show what works, not how it works I've been using LLMs mostly for side projects for over two years. These range from rather complex (logic-wise) "multiple-screen, multiplayer, multi-device, score-driven, timer-synced, multiple-media displayed, real-time controlled" pub quizzes to simple "list videos from my home plex server, and run them with mpv". And I try to read as much code that LLMs…
The New Apple Finally Begins to Emerge It’s official. Apple’s added Steve Lemay and Molly Anderson to their executive leadership page. After much drama following Alan Dye’s departure, the company has decided to not only elevate the two designers but give them the kind of platform that they deserve.

With the proliferation of AI models and tools, there's a new industry-wide fascination with snake oil remedies called "prompt engineering". As of July 2025 the term is now "context engineering" or "context prompting" or "context manipulation".
