Gosh yeah I can't even glance at my phone now without getting nauseous. It's awful. I hate car journeys now 😂

Yeah going to theme parks isn't nearly as fun as it was when I was younger 🥲

Oh certainly, they're extended only for a limited time! They certainly wouldn't keep the sales going by Monday

I would check this out and play with it a bit:

There's a little guide for it here: atproto.com/guides/appli...

And also if you want to get a little taste of it we chatted about it with @ngerakines.me in this episode! overcommitted.dev/ep-19-at-pro...

Yikes 😅 yeah that is a lot. You'll do great! Reach out if you have any questions or want gear suggestions. Prep for NICU time just in case 😁 my twins were in for 3 weeks and it was a stressful time but ended up being nice for getting them on a schedule.

Are these your first kids? I've got a 4 year old and 2 year old twins now. It's hard at first but gets so much easier over time!
November 28, 2025 at 4:54 AM
Ahhh fellow twin parent here! That will be a magical (and very, very busy) time 😁
November 28, 2025 at 2:32 AM
Thank you! That's awesome feedback 😁

Woah I didn't realize that! So much to learn about the early internet days.

I guess that makes "browsing the internet" a 90s kid.

Not to be a huge shill (sorry) but I recently wrote about coding agent usage here based on some of the things you put in your Vibe Engineering article, if it's at all interesting @simonwillison.net 😁 there's some very cool stuff happening in this space!

I was surprised by how much pushback there was on this 😅

There's a ton of work being done now and in the near future defining how folks work with AI, which is a great spot to have some realistic moral conversations about the right and wrong way it's done. Missing out on that is a shame.

It me

As appealing as that sounds.... 😆
November 27, 2025 at 8:29 PM
Thank you for sharing, I've been meaning to pick up a course and will do so now!

I bet this is a tired subject but I think AI is here to stay. I bet an AI course by developers for developers on the practical "here's how to use this and not suck" things might be refreshing and beneficial. ♥️

Yes, please. To all of that.

That's such a cool poster!!
