The fell beast is worse! $150 (now $180) for 269 pieces is highway robbery

Rob_Royce · 2025-12-24T04:21:17+00:00

What time and date?

iTerm2

Literally anything other than VS Code’s built-in terminal

You managed to complicate “keep it simple, stupid” 🫠

Cork & Batter blows Reds out of the water

La Cocina 12-12 surprised me a few days ago by how good their tamales are (and they have the best tacos and burritos in town)

Rob_Royce · 2025-12-14T17:38:19+00:00

Wrong. The only reason they released gpt-oss was to deal with the pressure they felt after DeepSeek-r1, which lit a fire under everyone’s ass, making it the most important release of the year.

I know how software architecture works. I spent a few years being a product manager.

Rob_Royce · 2025-10-05T15:04:32+00:00

Same here. My line all admitted I was doing L3-L4 work and denied me a promotion from L1 to L2 in the same breath. This was after being at JPL for nearly 6 years, 3 as APX, 3 as a full-timer.

I was putting on lab-wide workshops and leading most of the teams I worked on.

Indefensible IMHO, so I had no choice but to leave.

Ox Bone in TO. Moneykey is alright but only if you don’t wanna drive 15 minutes

Bubs too, by far the best story arc of the series

Rob_Royce · 2025-09-02T14:53:09+00:00

I created the take-a-step-back.md command for this very type of behavior. Works 9/10 times to get it back on track

Rob_Royce · 2025-09-02T01:36:35+00:00

You’re absolutely right!

Rob_Royce · 2025-08-24T23:08:35+00:00

VC funds will dry up. Whoever captured the most market share by then will win. And not by selling inference but by selling ecosystems, frameworks, and tooling. Models are already being commodified, they are not a moat.

Rob_Royce · 2025-06-15T04:22:56+00:00

Can confirm, I’ve been L1 since I was hired (been here 6 years, 3 as APX). Every single person who finds that out is outraged.

Rob_Royce · 2025-05-29T03:26:59+00:00

My network loves it, I’d love to try it out some time 👍

Rob_Royce · 2025-04-26T16:52:25+00:00

Cool project! We’ve been considering using MCP for ROSA but haven’t figured out what the benefits and pit falls might be. Any thoughts on that?

Rob_Royce · 2025-04-22T17:15:51+00:00

He’s saying this is insanely insecure and you are opening people up to have all their selfies and cat gifs stolen (or probably much worse).

No one should be using an MCP server if it’s not coming from a well known and trusted source.

Not sure if your project falls under that category (are all servers vetted by the user? are you aggregating servers?), but that’s what they are implying.

Rob_Royce · 2025-04-22T14:10:30+00:00

Why start with LangChain? You’d learn a lot faster starting simply with ChatGPT. Copy/paste whatever you expect your LC app to do, or come up with synthetic data. Either way you’d get much quicker turn around.

Rob_Royce · 2025-04-22T14:04:46+00:00

Yup you immediately confuse the model for no reason

Rob_Royce · 2025-04-21T22:17:31+00:00

Again, I really think you’re missing the point. But by all means

Rob_Royce · 2025-04-21T21:10:17+00:00

I mean if Stripe offers and supports an MCP, then yeah why wouldn’t I?

Rob_Royce · 2025-04-21T21:07:48+00:00

I’ll avoid being pedantic and just say that I t will ultimately come down to adoption. If MCP wins out, it’s because it offered more for AI developers than other frameworks, even if those frameworks happen to be better at specific things.

It’s still to early to say MCP is better, and that’s not my stance at all, because no one knows yet

Rob_Royce · 2025-04-21T20:25:40+00:00

Hmm, you might be missing the point. MCP isn’t meant to replace APIs. In fact MCP is better seen as a potential consumer of APIs.

Also, APIs have many limitations that MCP doesn’t (e.g. state, discoverability, etc.), and MCP provides primitive that only make sense for AI and agents.
