I’m about to add an MCP server to my latest project before or possibly instead of an API.

This is why I am a software engineer and not a hardware engineer.

I have been using Notational Velocity since at least 2012.

Vibe coding is a bit like I imagine crack to be.

Child 1 doing god’s work.

I love my @trmnl and I am very much looking forward to my X, but having an order tracker that shows less than 1 order a day progress is a bold move.

From time to time my wife will ask me “do you have ADHD?”

Tik Tok woke up and chose violence.

If this is happening to @siracusa, I can only assume it's driving him insane.

Thanks Barclays.

Every time I make my daughter a cheese toasty I wonder if the George Foreman marketing department physically attacked the product designers for missing the opportunity to brand everything cooked on their grill with the company name.

My family is hard on phones.

It’s like an episode of fucking Masterchef.

Anyone who doesn’t like LLMs hasn’t had to do mandatory training modules for their job.

Is this ironic?

Having finally started using Cursor properly, this blog post has inspired me to try agents a bit more. https://allenpike.com/2025/coding-agents So far so good.

My Trmnl arrived and I’m in love!

I've used Cursor for ages, but just for much more expansive autocomplete.

Annual upgrade.

It is now 11 years since I wrote my podcast catch-up service Recast.

Went to cast my futile vote.

Enjoy it, but accept that you just lost it.

I’m listening to @siracusa compare LLM vibe-coding to 4GLs on @atpfm Hard to believe 4GLs were going to be the next big thing.

I don’t have favourite children but if I did, this is the kind of behaviour that would get you bonus points.
