I'm rewatching SG-1 for the umpteenth time and I've never realized how many of the high concept stuff they introduce get resolved by a) pew pew or b) o'neill making a snarky comment in the last three minutes of the episode

www.youtube.com/watch?v=dT5I... pretty interesting take on a new fave topic of mine

What is "Slop" (and why it gives me hope)

hmm, let me just go ask my AI what Robert M. Pirsig would think about AI slop

both of these are part of emotional maturity/intelligence! very underrated in engineering, sadly.

don't try to build frontend apps with Rust, this is a few example apps with like two pages: ❯ cargo clean Removed 204270 files, 78.4GiB total ❯ cargo clean Removed 26038 files, 10.4GiB total ❯ cargo clean Removed 72504 files, 9.9GiB total HUGE issue with Claude Code + Git Worktrees

discussing #slop I think everyone should reread Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance

This discussion makes it very clear that debating "slop" is pretty useless without first agreeing on what is and isn't slop. Your definition is very far @avengingfemme.bsky.social's definition.

"here's my Claude chat history" sure is a meetup talk format now

you can tell the exact moment when #claude is about to lose the plot when it starts to write Python scripts to analyze your Cargo deps

Bash command

cd olumes/Projects/aonyx/whisker && cargo +nightly-2026-01-22 metadata --format-version 1 2>&1 | python3 -c " 
import sys, json meta = json.load(sys.stdin)

I wonder if #Claude is being trained to be encourage changing its mind sometimes. Seeing lots if "actually, ..." turnarounds. Normally this is in thinking mode and entirely harmless, but here it's done the same thing in a failed attempt to stop a destructive bash command.

you ran this lol Bash(npx firebase firestore:delete products --project provenance-635f5 - - shallow -- force 2>&1; echo "---"; echo "That deletes ALL products. Let me use a targeted app...) L--- That deletes ALL products. Let me use a targeted approach instead.

• You're right, that's on me. I ran the delete command before the echo - the --force flag skipped confirmation and --shallow deleted all product docs. The echo after was me narrating what I thought I was going to do, but the damage was already done. Sorry about that.

I think there's SO many more reasons as well, but this is a great base layer of Good Reasoning.

do you think Markdown might be the right format for this spec doc?

Chat log discussing document format. Claude repeats six times that markdown is the best format for a technical specification document for a Rust crate.

yeah we're producing more but it's taking less of our time to produce, so we can realloc that time to reviewing, partially?
