Notes on AI, tools, and tech.
I’ve been messing around with AI coding tools for a while now. And honestly? I got tired of switching between five different apps just to test one model against another. ChatGPT for one thing, Claude for something else, then back to DeepSeek for a third task. It was getting ridiculous. So when I heard about … Read more
I’ll be honest: I had high hopes for DeepSeek Harness. When I heard DeepSeek was releasing their first Agent product, I pictured something like Codex or Workbuddy. Maybe a polished desktop app. Or at least a Claude Code-style CLI tool that you could fire up and start using right away. I thought the whole point … Read more
DeepSeek dropped something new just yesterday, August 13. Not a model this time, but an agent harness called DeepSeek Harness. They open-sourced it under MIT and put it up on GitHub (https://github.com/deepseek-ai/deepseek-harness). I spun it up last night and spent a few hours with it. Here’s what I found. Wait, I should back up. What’s … Read more
Honestly? I didn’t see this coming. DeepSeek has been killing it on the model side for a while now. Cheap API, solid performance, open weights. They’ve been the budget champ for developers who don’t want to burn cash on OpenAI or Claude. But yesterday they dropped something different. Not a model. Not a price cut. … Read more
I’ve been using AI coding assistants for a while now. Not because I can’t write code without them — I can. But because they save me time. And time is the one thing I never have enough of. I started with Cursor. Then I tried Trae. Then Claude Code showed up and everyone lost their … Read more
I have been using OpenCode for about six months now. I started out just treating it like a chat box. It took a while to figure out what actually works. The default mode is Build. You say something, and it starts changing code. The problem is, most of the time I do not know exactly … Read more
Google just announced they are killing three Gmail features that a lot of people rely on. Starting January 2027, you will no longer be able to send emails from a Yahoo or Outlook address through your Gmail account. The web version of POP fetching is going away too. And Gmailify, the feature that lets Gmail’s … Read more
I gave Codex full access to my machine for one afternoon. It deleted about 300GB of files from my C and D drives. This happened to a user on X last week. They wanted to use up their Codex credits before a reset, so they asked the agent to remotely verify their project scripts and … Read more
I’ve been using AI coding assistants for a while now. I started with Trae, specifically its SOLO mode. It felt like the WebStorm of AI editors. Everything worked out of the box, and I never had to think about how to talk to it. It just understood me. Then I switched to Claude Code. And … Read more
The hype around Prime Agent is getting ridiculous. People are calling it the next step toward AGI. Some claim that with Opus 5 it scores 95.5 percent on ARC-AGI-3, beating the human expert baseline of 95.4 percent. That is a big number. But I kept reading the same talking points everywhere, RLM, Continual Harness, prompt-as-a-variable, … Read more
