Just used Claude Code and the Chrome devtools MCP to identify a gnarly CSS/HTML bug that has plagued me for months.

I'm still not letting CC touch any of my real code—everything runs in a sandboxed account in placeholder fake projects—but it can sometimes be really useful.

This is a lesson to all of you: *talk to people*. Teach yourself to ask. Being annoying is free. Rewriting a month-worth of code is not. There is no better way to level up as an engineer than code review. It starts from how well you're able to plan out the feature and split it.

To Bluesky, Telegram, Signal, and every single software/app developer ever, from now until the end of time:

No. I do NOT want to import my contacts. I will NEVER want to import my contacts. My contacts have my phone number so they can call/text me - that's it, full stop, the end.

I prefer an [error, data] over { error, data } for async operation results. Why? Because a tuple guarantees the order. Put the error first, which reminds the consumer to handle it. Object keys are order-insensitive and it's easy to forget to check for the "error" key.

To me, the whole idea of managing scope is antiquated and not particularly useful. It assumes a fixed up-front plan from which you can deviate. It assumes a schedule based on that up-front plan. However, scope defined upfront does not work, and it never has.

The wildest part of the South End isn’t the brownstones… it’s that Boston built something beautiful, loved it, and then spent decades making sure no one could ever do it again anywhere in Massachusetts.
