@brianmcentire.bsky.social@brianmcentire.bsky.socialThat's a lotta cope
@brianmcentire.bsky.socialEvery problem seems easy to those who don't understand it
@brianmcentire.bsky.social"The global economy has become dependent on the AI industry" Lost me with the first sentence. Bold claims demand bold evidence. Most research shows little to no business value from AI yet. If authors mean bets on AI are propping up the S&P500 that's one thing, and that's not the economy.
@brianmcentire.bsky.socialThat's just the price of oil right? Does it take markets longer to factor in fertilizer shortages, increase in cost of goods etc?
@brianmcentire.bsky.socialDegrowth across all categories
@brianmcentire.bsky.socialLife after cars is going to be so good
@brianmcentire.bsky.social"Arm AGI CPU" 🤦🏻♂️
@brianmcentire.bsky.socialClick of death Zip drives. Good times

@brianmcentire.bsky.socialIt's unbelievable how resilient our stonks are 🚀
@brianmcentire.bsky.socialOpenCode is really powerful and feels faster than Claude Code. I go back and forth between them in the same project. Sometimes using CC until reaching a quota, then switching to OC and often don't switch back until starting a new feature or hitting a snag I think Opus would be better at solving.
@brianmcentire.bsky.socialAre there strong studies linking downward trend in alcohol consumption to widespread infections?
@brianmcentire.bsky.socialDoes evidence support that subsequently severe flu and rsv seasons have been due to Covid damaged immune systems (or immunity debt still unpaid in year 5)
@brianmcentire.bsky.socialGreat free tools for making / working with bike routes: • Move the start point of an existing route. Trim, reverse, or merge routes too - www.therideatlas.com/tools/ • Overlay routes to compare them, edit courses with or w/o routing - gpx.studio Thanks and kudos to the authors! #cycling #gis
@brianmcentire.bsky.socialTrump said when the price of oil is up we make more money. Maybe both sides aiming for $200/barrel 🤷🏻♂️
@brianmcentire.bsky.socialDo you have a favorite prompts library or set of steering docs you use as a starting point for new utilities?
@brianmcentire.bsky.socialSeems widely assumed that if AI speeds up part of a system by 2/5/10x then it has similar impact on the overall system. But see Amdahl’s Law. Like, it can produce code 10x faster doesn't mean software companies will be 10x more productive or people will order 10x more grub hub.
@brianmcentire.bsky.socialPun!
@brianmcentire.bsky.socialWe aren't. He is.
