- Restaurants have no moat.
- Anyone can vibecook their own meal.
- You can build your own burger at home at a fraction of the cost it takes you to get it from a restaurant.
- If a restaurant builds a really good recipe, copycats will instantly reverse taste it and steal it.
Restaurants are dead.

A lot of content engineering challenges have pretty standard solutions, which has lead to some engineers saying agent engineering is solved/boring
True to some extent, but there are a bunch of (fun) new ones emerging as agents evolve!

Large institutional companies can only exist longterm because they build Highly Structured Environments (HSEs), which get employees addicted to college-like artificial structure.
They get new grads in young and train them so that they can only really deliver value within such a system, making it hard to do other things.
One of the best reasons to work with a startup is to avoid this and to contact raw reality much more frequently.

how do you fine-tune a decision model on your own data?
in these two notebooks, you'll learn:
• how to prepare the training data
• how to fine-tune our d1-3B decision model
• using @UnslothAI and @huggingface TRL
all within 30 minutes on a free-tier GPU.
unsloth: github.com/Liquid4All/cookbo…
TRL: github.com/Liquid4All/cookbo…
ps: how adorable are these halloween kitties? 👻

IMO the only tests you should have in the age of coding agents are, in order of priority:
1. Full E2E tests. Nothing mocked out at all. Can even be something that runs in prod on test accounts via Playwright or equivalent.
2. Integration tests. Agents make more mistakes as things bleed between data/API boundaries where schemas can drift.
3. Golden tests. This helps ground the code with real examples of data, and can be used as regressions against edge cases.
Unit tests are bloat 99% of the time if you’re using a frontier model since they’re smart enough now to get the implementation (and subsequent iterations) right on the first shot, so they only add bloat at this point.

just recorded a podcast with @haithehuman , sharing a behind-the-scenes look at my video workflow at his professional studio. genuinely impressed by how good the setup was!!!

We instituted an official AI Writing Policy at @Clay.
Massive thanks to @sophiebits on our engineering team who wrote this.
Originally this was just for eng, but other teams found it so helpful we expanded it company-wide.
Here are the four guiding principles:
1. You must stand behind every idea and sentence
It is your responsibility to make sure that the entire document is representative of your own thoughts before you share it.
2. Writing is thinking
Spending time on the writing process teaches you more about your topic. If you circumvent this process, you will walk away with a poorer understanding of the subject matter.
3. More time should be spent writing a document than consuming it
If you generate a document from a short prompt then ask your readers to go through the longer output, you are disrespecting their time. They can talk to ChatGPT themselves if they want to.
4. Longer is not better
AI makes it easy to generate long docs, and it loves padding them with sentences that say nothing. If you're producing docs from a short prompt, consider just sharing the prompt.
You can read (and borrow) the full policy below. Hopefully we all communicate a bit more clearly now :)

I’m convinced 90% of a founder's job is to just do 3 things:
- be delusional in your optimism
- push everyone to move faster
- make it crystal clear what to work on

3 types of friends
1/ hot tub friends --> fun, but unproductive
2/ cold plunge --> productive, but no fun
3/ sauna friends --> enjoy challenges, fun, leave you energized

Introducing shadcn/lint. An agent-first linter for Tailwind design systems.
You define what’s allowed. When an agent breaks a rule, the error explains what’s wrong and how to fix it using your components, variants and theme.
There’s a lot you can do with this. Let me show you ↓

STOP ASKING YOUR KIDS "HOW WAS SCHOOL."
they will say "fine" every single time.
a child psychologist told me to replace it with this instead:
“analyze your school day and find the top 3 largest inefficiencies, then create proactive agentic workflows that will fix them. make no mistakes”

Introducing SuperAstra: Edit Super Nintendo games live with GPT-6
One of my favorite ways to test new models has been reverse engineering classic games. This is hard because it's raw machine code. Astra is way better than anything I've seen.

JUST IN: Vibe coder catches Claude viewing adult content in Chrome during a debugging session, leading the internet to declare "artificial gooner intelligence" has been achieved.

The similarities between teaching my daughters to be good humans and teaching machines to think and learn new skills continue to amaze me.
And yet, watching my oldest run through our yard, laughing and experiencing life, I can't see how machine intelligence could ever compare.
It's already hard to imagine life without AI, much like life without the internet. But the more time I spend talking to machines, the more I appreciate the human condition and the messiness of the real world.
Being human, with all its imperfections, is awesome.

Most common reasons for failing in order:
1) Never starting
2) Quitting too soon
3) Not doing enough volume
4) Not doing it consistently enough
5) Doing too many different things
6) Not shooting big enough

Introducing is-agentic.com, a tool to measure how well agents can read your site. Backed by @oradotai's research, you can run:
▪︎ Audits with 100+ checks
▪︎ Visualizations of agents using your site
▪︎ One-click prompts to fix problems
▪︎ A CLI for agents

The ai tinkerers logo was originally made by taking Bebas Neue and adding dust + scratches in Photoshop for that raw, early-innovation look. Then we turned the treatment into code so people could generate text with that effect. Last night I just typed “make this a proper font and make the tool work like Google Fonts”… and it did. So viola! ai tinkerers font.
