Autumnal vibes

Meanwhile, my voyage of discovery continues in the real world too. This weekend I met 'Zebra Green Tomatoes', in my local butcher's. Nature has such (often delicious) varierty.

I've just vibe coded a (really basic) MVP for syncing my music playlists from Ubuntu to my phone. I know this sounds trivial but, thanks to a history rich in iTunes (forgive me, it was convenient at at time I knew not better), it wasn't. Anyway how I feel now is: I AM INVINCIBLE (for small values of vincible) Thanks to @calle for describing how he vibe codes on Citadel Dispatch (as a non dev, this insight was incredibly helpful) and to @PayPerQ (ppq.ai) for giving me easy & KYC free (LN payments) access to ALL THE MODELS at bargain, per usage, prices. I love being in this space. When I get over the current wave of feeling like the stupidest person in the room, I learn so much & get to put that learning into practice. 🔥

So, 23 steps (and still Phase 1) into our 7-phase implementation plan (my first go at vibe coding), it became clear that that my overacheiving AI partner was taking this thing to enterprise level, rather than a manually triggered home use app.🤣 Quiet words were had. Some possible simplifications identified (starting with the audit logs, cron job automated scheduler and cross platform consistency checks!). And we begin again. I'm loving the total absence of any blame or frustration for my ambiguous instructions 🙂

I've thought of FOSS and freedom tech in general as being the digital commons, but without an appreciation of the independence of commons from the transactional market nor for the social bonds & obligations involved with their maintenance. The lesson of historic enclosure is an apt warning for us today, that we have a role to play in protecting this new commons & must be vigilant against the onset of complacency. This episode has got me thinking & wanting to get ahold of some of your books. Thanks Wanted to boost this, but you don't have your wallet enabled.

Some accuse the British of being boring, stuffy and reserved. It's baseless character denigration & I can prove it. From a local pleb meet, here we are getting our jam on.

Wow, this just made my month! (Yeah, I know, don't have heros but... come one, I gotta have a few failings, right?) 🫡🫡

Loved this episode (even if the food security topic has my mind racing). Does Jon or the farm have a lnurl so we can send them an unsolicited zappy donation? If not, would you be able to take the time to set him up on primal (or another solution) so we can show our support, the best way, for this self-sovereign farmer?
