Another night at the OPERA

I'm not exactly sure what this kink is, but count me out

I whipped up a ChatGPT clone for my mom, who still thinks it is called ChatBGD:

For endless entertainment, give it instructions like "you are a professional seductress", turn reasoning up to "High", and watch it wrestle with inner turmoil about how to respond. Relatable 👍

I do not have SOCIAL MEDIA so this is the closest you're gonna get to me live-tweeting Mozart's The Magic Flute

I asked Claude to design a dating app, TuranDATE, based on Puccini's opera Turandot, in which suitors must solve three riddles or be executed. The dream!

PS: even before vibecoding, everyone and their goldfish thought they had a new idea to revolutionize online dating. It's probably about to get even stupider out there. MAYBE we can all make our OWN dating apps (à la Bojack Horseman)? Then, once you match with someone on [Match-owned dating app of choice], you invite each other to your personal dating apps? And THEN ghost each other 👍

PPS: Turandot is only 90% complete because Puccini died before he could finish it, meaning the final 10% is left as an exercise for the producer. Does the prince get the girl? Or does she turn into a dragon and devour him? we report you decide

And here it is: your moment of Zen.

OK Claude,
hey, you know the game Hypnospace Outlaw? How do I make websites that look like the sites in that game?

I am working on an AI Agent for my shitty and weird Cutty app. Session isolation actually seems to be non-trivial (probably a skill issue), so the entire public internet can access the same chat logs with my comically unhelpful cuttlefish chatbot here. lol 🦑

It does use my Anthropic API key, but I'm not too worried. How much could a token possibly cost? Twelve dollars?

✅ Finally wrote a BIOGRAPHY lmao

If I enjoyed coding one fifth as much as I enjoy vibecoding, I'd probably be in a crypto sex cult in SF making a trillion dollars an hour (for disrupting things obviously) boofing ketamine and patting myself on the back for planning to one day give money to charity. Bummer!

People told me "Google Oauth is hard" but they just weren't vibing hard enough. And to think I trusted them!

Goobl OAuth 4 dumdums (this could be you!)

I started asking Claude to "spawn cute subagents" and prefix all commit messages with their names.

[Pinkie] has been hard at work adding 1326 failing unit tests. Slay

I posted a SWE job posting recently and have been utterly inundated with AI-generated applications. Y'all WILDIN. So I'm vibecoding a tool using the Recruitee API and AI to root out the AI candidates. Game recognize game... I hope.

Recruitee's API also makes it very easy to bulk auto-apply to jobs. Why????

I added Google sign-in because I thought it would be funny. Lol lmao

FLY MY PRETTIES

Claude Code reviewing its own pull requests be like

Big day! I finally hit the usage limits for Claude Max. I have achieved this important milestone by getting Claude massively confused about whether chesscom-helper is a Django app or not.

I have been descending rapidly into madness and degeneracy with Claude Code.

And now ➡️ you can too! ➡️

I would clip my toenails more if my feet weren't so damn far away

I don't have ex-boyfriends. I have legacy romance ❤️

Just launched esquie.org because I have lost control of my life. (Github).

Mon ami!

Thinking today about my disastrous first date in October 2024 with an Iranian immigrant with a PhD and a quantum physics startup who was also somehow an "undecided" voter. Good heavens! So anyway I started blogging

Summer begins with a relentless and vengeful sun. Few other cyclists are out today; I guess they know better.

As I crane my neck to let the wind bring the slightest relief, I feel a psychic resonance with my primordial ancestors. I picture them sweating and surviving in the Serengeti, as I now sweat and survive on US Highway 36. This primal kinship with those who came before me stretches back from generation to generation, centuries stretching into millennia, fading into an endless and unfathomable past.

I turn on my smartwatch to check my heart rate and skip to the next song. Pulsating through my bone conductance headphones, Sabrina Carpenter sings about coffee or some shit.

I used AI to create self insertion smut about two men who fall in love with me and then end up marrying each other instead and I'd do it again

Testing out the new image carousel feature! Multiple images should display in a nice carousel with navigation. And if they don't then I am DELETING YOU CLAUDE

I put on deodorant before getting on video calls. It's called having STANDARDS

This is a test. Remember, it was your choice to read it.

Wake up SHEEPLE!! The sun is up, you really should get out of bed
