programmer by day, programmer by night.
If all your time is spent watching output tokens, where do your input tokens come from? Letting an agent rip on full auto is basically doom scrolling. Even worse if you're doom scrolling while the agent runs. We humans love frying our dopamine receptors. This feels great until you realize what you were offloading: the struggle. The part where you fail. Failure is the entire point. You don't make…
Glimpse v1.0 Glimpse can now build call graphs, showing you exactly how functions relate to each other in your codebase. # what does main call? glimpse code main.rs:main # what calls this function? (reverse call graph) glimpse code requests.py:process_request --callers # limit the depth glimpse code :build --depth 3 This works by parsing your code with tree-sitter, extracting function definitions…
This is a general devlog covering what I’ve been up to over the past few months! Haskell Hakyll is a Haskell library for generating static websites (yes, you do not, in fact, need Next.js for your personal site). The previous iteration of my website was written with Go + templ, and it was not static. I wrote everything myself, and it was, quite frankly, a horror to maintain. The templ LSP actually…
tin·ker /ˈtiNGkər/ to make small changes to something, especially in an attempt to repair or improve it. In Hindsight Growing up, I never stuck to a single thing, be it guitar lessons, art school, martial arts – I tried them all. when it came to programming, though, I never really tinkered. I was always amazed with video games and wondered how they were made but I never pursued that curiosity. My…
Look everything up Pretty much the best way to learn that I have found is to refrain from suprressing your innate curosity and let it go wild. Most of the time, you will encounter a term or concept that you do not know, instead of glancing at it briefly, go all in. Google it, read the wiki page, found someone's blog post? Read it. Watch that youtube video (I only do this if it's not 3 hours like…
I built a website (twoweeksisallyouneed dot com) with just Claude 3.5 Sonnet, zero lines of code written by me. Why I did this So a couple weeks back I had a computer vision midterm and i was allowed a single page of notes. I decided to use Claude to generate a cheat sheet in LaTeX. It was crazy lol, I was able to cook up something usable in 15 mins. claude is the best, this was made in 15 minutes…
Zig Psyop Before this weekend, I was a plebeian who used JavaScript for 80% of my tasks. Now I am an esoteric plebeian who has used zig once. Anyway, I decided to give zig a shot and try to build a game with it. There was really only two libraries I wanted to learn (sokol and raylib), I went with raylib. Initial References I went through the official raylib docs to get a feel for the API, then I…
