porting software has been trivial for a while now. here’s how you do it. This one is short and sweet. if you want to port a codebase from one language to another here’s the approach: 1. Run a ralph loop which compresses all tests into /specs/.md which looks similar to “s...

Damn, okay, we'll figure out something when my travel schedule chills out a little bit.

That's the thing I don't think anyone knows. All we can do is kind of colour within the lines of the patterns that are starting to appear.

Software development now costs less than than the wage of a minimum wage worker Hey folks, the last year I've been pondering about this and doing game theory around the discovery of Ralph, how good the models are getting and how that's going to intersect with society. What follow...

Can a LLM convert C, to ASM to specs and then to a working Z/80 Speccy tape? Yes. ✨Daniel Joyce used the techniques described in this post to port ls to rust via an objdump. You can see the code here: https://github.com/DanielJoyce/ls-rs. Keen, to see more examples - get in contact...

almost a year ago now ghuntley.com/z80

a. Introduce a Secret<T> and Pii<T> primitive + hard migrate
b. Search AuditLog<T> and create honeycomb IaC dashboards + SLO/SLI
c. Pump everything over to Honeycomb

tldr - there's _zero_ excuse to not have SLO/SLI and dashboards on launch day now that AI is here.

Correct, Liz, basically I designed with audit logs as a first-class primitive, as everyone should do. Like, everything should have audit logs, and now that I have those audit logs it was a

"Hey Claude".....

meanwhile, I just ralphed my way to SLO/SLIs within @honeycomb.io

Agent Backpressure — Glossary — Latent Patterns Automated feedback mechanisms — type systems, test suites, linters, and pre-commit hooks — that allow AI agents to detect and correct their own mistakes without human intervention.

working on it liz, working on it :)

dumping my entire brain into @latentpatterns.com

the fun thing is folks think ralph produces slop (it does) but you can engineer the slop away (agent back pressure)

@ghuntley.com and I spent two hours nerding out about the future of software development and now my brain is brimming with new ideas and potential collabs!

teleporting into the future and robbing yourself of retirement projects I'm going to make this a really quick one because this is doing the rounds, and whilst I've tweeted about it, it's time to dig in. Pragmatic Engineer's @GergelyOrosz is on a "secret email list" of ag...
