Claude Code as general purpose agent

The more I use Claude Code, the more I find it useful and interesting for tasks beyond the one for which it is named. Simon Willison agrees : Claude Code is, with hindsight, poorly named. It’s not purely a coding tool: it’s a tool for general computer automation. Anything you can achieve by typing commands into a computer is something that can now be automated by Claude Code. It’s best described as a general agent . On one hand it’s surprising that this sort of tool is taking the form of a command line interface in the year 2025, but it also makes a lot of sense: CLIs provide programmatic acce

Pay attention to Chicago

I’ve felt compelled to write something about what it’s like living in Chicago during the moment we find ourselves in now, but luckily Dan Sinker wrote a piece that I can simply link to and quote here : What I need you to understand is that nobody is letting them go quietly. The Feds’ every movement is announced by a chorus of whistles, by a parade of cars honking in their wake, neighbors rushing outside to yell to film to witness these kidnappings that are unfolding in front of us. Neighbors running towards trouble. Like Fred Rogers said, “ look for the helpers. ” Don’t miss the resources at t

Playing the fiddle

Something I’m noticing about AI, or at least this moment of AI agents and tools for building software, is the extreme amount of fiddling they invite. Fiddling here includes things like trying new models and tools, tweaking prompts, leveraging MCP servers vs. code tools, browsing plugins, installing skills, configuring hooks, setting up subagents, and the list goes on. The specific knobs you can fiddle vary from tool to tool, but their existence and multitude are hard to avoid. And knobs aren’t even quite the right metaphor here, as turning a knob in the real world tends to have a deterministic

Assorted thoughts on Sunday’s home robot

Sunday Robotics designed and developed their new robot, Memo, and the platform for training it in stealth over the past two years. No hype events, no prototypes being operated remotely by humans, no promises to change the world. Sunday seems happy to let the result of the work stand for itself: the company’s first tweet was posted just this month! In an age of endless and often fraud-adjacent hype, quiet competence is a refreshing vibe. Memo’s form is unique: a friendly, cartoonish-yet-anthropomorphic upper half connected via telescoping rod to a wheeled, rectangular base. Many robotics compan

Diffs, by Pierre

Although I’m generally allergic to dependencies as a programmer, I occasionally stumble upon a package that 1) does a thing I really wouldn’t want to implement myself, and 2) is obviously well crafted and likely to be reliable and well maintained. Having great tools in your back pocket, waiting to be leveraged when needed, is a superpower. So here’s one such tool: @pierre/diffs , available at diffs.com (what a domain name!), is a package for rendering really nice file diffs. And although it comes with a React component, it also has a vanilla JavaScript API as well which is most appreciated. I

Playing behind the beat

Here’s Spencer Tweedy on the strange new layer of computing that is the large language model : In the earlier styles of computer instruction, the interpretation process could only translate your command into one possible outcome. It was like a dictionary with a single definition for each word. With an LLM, the computer is a dictionary with an indeterminate number of definitions for every input. Spencer traces the LLM through a lineage of computer language, from machine code to assembly and up the ladder of abstraction. Programmers and computer scientists have been climbing that ladder for deca
