AI has completely changed how I discover knowledge. I felt it was a reasonable assumption that psql would support exporting results of a query as CSV. But I had no clue about the syntax. Savvy made short work my query. It even told me how to add a csv header.

I'll be giving a talk on building complex software in the terminal with AI using Plandex at @sourcegraph's AI Dev Tools night June 24th in SF. There are still spots left so rsvp and come on by if you're in the area! lu.ma/ai-devtools-ni…

Thrilled to announce our upcoming in-person AI meetup in San Francisco! 📆 Monday, Jun 24 5:30 PM - 8:30 PM PDT Featuring: - Dane Schneider from Plandex - AJ Chan from Weaviate • vector database - Dani Grant from Jam.dev - Beyang from Sourcegraph - MC: YK aka CS Dojo 📺🐦 from Cody AI

Writing Go is really fun.

An underrated use of LLMs is recovering from ugly git situations. I did some work a couple days ago that somehow got overwritten. It's all present in the reflog though. I asked ChatGPT for a script that recovers/applies those changes, leaving merge conflicts for me to fix.

AI doesn’t replace programmers. It simply makes English a programming language.

Do you use AI to help you write? I'm working on a docs site for Plandex , and I had to turn off GH Copilot for markdown files. As massive as I find the productivity boost from AI tools for coding (> 2x for me conservatively), with current capabilities I find it's a net

I had an awesome time meeting Dane Schneider from Plandex IRL. ICYMI, watch his presentation "​Prompts are a programming language" from the latest @sourcegraph SF meetup. youtube.com/watch?v=LRF1QE…

Plandex passed 10k stars on GH! Have been heads down building and a bit quiet lately, but will have some cool stuff to show in August ☄️

A comprehensive docs site for Plandex is live! Check it out 🧐 docs.plandex.ai

Founder Mode entering the popular consciousness will cause more good founders to start startups. What good founder wants to start a startup if success condemns you to living in Manager Mode? Now people know it doesn't.

🚀 After an amazing time at Stellate, I've decided to start a new business. I've founded expand.ai, and we're in the current YC batch - S24! For techies: expand.ai instantly turns any website into a type-safe API you can rely on. 💻 For non-techies:

This is very true

We’re going to spend just as much time writing software. It’s just going to be bigger and better software. As tools improve, standards increase. You can do in a day what used to take weeks. But so can everyone else.

States like inspiration and creativity seem to correlate in an interesting way with ‘temperature’, ‘top p’, and other LLM inputs. By turning up the randomness and accepting a wider range of output, you get more nonsense, but you also (potentially) get more novel insights and

A new skill with the advent of long-reasoning AI like o1 pro and deep research is juggling lots of parallel tasks. While one prompt is processing, you start up a few more, then get back to the first just as it’s finishing.
