I have received an unprecedented amount of contributions to Autolith from its users. This release is literally just going to have me merging and fixing up stuff, very blessed

I think it’s time to rethink how we build software. ​ We need one IDE that supports every language, is as fast as @zeddotdev, as smart and polished as @jetbrains, and has agentic workflows like @getsome_air (but with a few more features). ​ I’m the best product manager ever.

Using AI as an excuse to move toward lower level languages feels completely backwards to me “We don’t need to understand all this complexity, AI does” is exactly the wrong direction. Human understanding is required for every functioning software system The goal should be high level languages with low level performance, not low level languages obscured and incomprehensible having to be explained by a non-deterministic AI translation layer What we need is even higher level languages optimized for human understanding. That is the modern bottleneck we’re facing right now

Not ignored: examined, & rejected. Because the premise, “the best language is the one that provides fast feedback,” is false.

I’m loving my Common Lisp setup. MCP with swank and it just flys. Any error conditions pause the app and trigger the LLM to fix and unpause. You can just build while you use the app without restarting. My MCP keeps track of hot loaded code so it can diff and write back to files on disk.

Rust no longer the defacto best language for agents Compile times are too long, I'm always finding myself bottlenecked by time not intelligence And the agents have gotten really at doing manual memory management now

It's insane how people sleep on SQLite in production. It's the absolute cheat-code. The fastest db money can buy. Infinitely scalable. All queries are 90% faster than a single roundtrip to Supabase. Literally unbeatable. Why wouldn't you start every single app with SQLite?

This is kinda wild. Generated some data from a sine function and gave it to Jev to guess the function and it did. Tried the same with a linear function, and it got that too. Could open up some interesting use cases.
