I built an internal tool to get my sites ranking on Google and cited in AI answers. It worked, so I made it a product. seogent.ai/

Everyone is busy physically upgrading servers this morning so AI can catch it's virtual breath.

The best part of following good coding standards and practices pre AI is the predictable manner it can work in that codebase today.

Having Claude absolutely cooking on some code while the RAID drive is backing up and gurgling like a coffee percolator is such a cool vibe

Anyone else feeling like you spend considerably less time coding and considerably more time testing?

What should we call "dogfooding" when the agent is the one chowing down?

Created my first Mac app today ... a little home budgeting app for my wife to run on our home computer ... goodbye spreadsheet

Having Claude do manual grunt work in the browser is magical. Click, update, save, move on .... what a massive time saver.

PageProofer has a fresh new look and a lot of new features 💛 One-click browser extension, element highlighting, drawing while you record, due dates, #tags and AI agent support. If you build, design or QA websites, check it out 👇 pageproofer.com/blog/a-fresh…

One of my favourite uses for AI is spicing up old UI. Just added this nice little hover effect for pageproofer.com so you know exactly which element you are pinning.

What's easier ... growing an existing software product or launching a brand new one?

Claude is doing some cooking today, feels like bacon sizzlin' in the frying pan.

I've been thinking a lot about AI and how we use it as devs. What makes us special vs the avg person vibe coding something. I think it's like a scalpel in the hands of a surgeon vs the avg joe. You need a surgery, who do you want using the scalpel? The trained pro or joe?

I love that my ugreen NAS sounds like an old school coffee percolator while it's backing up. I just wish it had that pleasant coffee aroma to go with it.

Identify some issues in a website and then seeing Claude interact with the page in real time to debug and fix the issue is pretty wild. We're not in Kansas anymore Toto.

Claude design on Opus 5.5 is good, really good!

AI stole the joy of programming from me ... I fretted, I grieved internally, and then I dug in ... and now it's starting to bring it back

Gone through this twice in the past year. Once at a personal level and once at a professional level. It is so very true and good to remember.
