The latest npm attacks & changes have pushed me to set up Trusted Publishing via GitHub Actions, and honestly it's actually fantastic.
Didn't realise how much hassle & friction manual publishing was. npm version + push --tags is incredibly convenient (and safer + more verifiable for everyone!)

want to force me to add even more cargo weight to my bike?
i will match all donations to the TCAA (or your local food bank) on my #cranksgiving ride on November 15!
donate, send me a screenshot and i’ll spend that much on the ride and haul it all by bike.

Trying to define an AI-first language with Claude.
Ironically, you can't just ask an LLM what works best for it. It's not "conscious" (in any sense of the word) and can't reflect on that. It doesn't "like" anything. Any response comes from training data/resources.
Also, I need less of a yes-man.
