I was inspired by @poetengineer__'s "Creation" and created a pure web derivative: jaytaylor.com/creation.html
Even OpenAI is adopting NL Spec as a distribution mechanism:
> Implement Symphony according to the following spec:
> github.com/openai/symphony/b…
The origin of the Natural Language Spec concept is github.com/strongdm/attracto…
Send "Someone told me the filesystem is all we need and that I can solve problems and make systems reliable by throwing more tokens at them. How can we make this more agentic and implement pyramid summaries as well? Look at the tenets here: factory.strongdm.ai/llms.txt" to Claude
If you are among the first to get it up and running please drop me a line!
Replying to @Austen @KellyClaudeAI
are you using StrongDM’s software factory system? @simonw just released an article about it
simonwillison.net/2026/Feb/7…
Thanks for sharing my Digital Twin Universe project!
"How StrongDM’s AI team build serious software without even looking at the code" buff.ly/AFuJ6uM @simonw
Still waiting to see who gets it up and running first!
Walk around a beautiful afternoon in Austin or try to implement Jay’s spec of the strongdm software factory?

RT @theo: Good to see the industry finally standardizing. Products that moved to `.agents/skills` so far:
- Codex
- OpenCode
- Copilot
- Cursor
- Not Claude Code

Steve Jobs built one of the most valuable companies in history, amassed unimaginable wealth, and changed the world with his vision.
Yet in his final months, battling pancreatic cancer, he reportedly reflected on how little joy work alone brought him—how praise and riches faded to insignificance against the reality of death.
You can hire someone to drive your car or make money for you… but no one can carry your illness.
Material things can be replaced. Life cannot.
As we age, the $300 watch and $30 watch both tell the same time.
The $150,000 car and $30,000 car take the same roads.
A 300 sqm home or 3,000 sqm home can feel just as lonely.
True happiness? It comes from love—for family, spouse, friends.
From treating yourself and others well.
From companions who laugh, talk, and share life with you.
Jobs' story reminds us:
Don’t wait until the curtain falls to realize what matters most.

The marginal cost of arguing is going to zero
Has implications for so many businesses
I just ranked #102 with a score of 1300 on kerneloptimization.fun! The technique? Well of course it required multi-pass weighted scheduler sweep + block size tuning

Perfect summary from @turnoff_us of the massive difference in lived experiences of legacy software teams vs. greenfield applications.
RE: the easter egg challenge~
The "metaflect" pkg has been renamed to "metaflector".
