Excerpts from “Code is cheap, show me talk” by Kailash Nadh
An experienced developer who can talk well, that is, imagine, articulate, define problem statements, architect and engineer, has a massive advantage over someone who cannot, more disproportionately than ever.

I decided to give in and setup a @clawdbot daemon today for fun. Remotely on a fresh ec2 instance.
Apart from some hurdles, i got it working via telegram trigger.
I see the vision, have some ideas and yes we’re getting close.
Remote personal agents. Cambrian explosion. I see it. -- 2026-01-25T12:31:07.842Z
Today, I shall try to do things that I couldn’t even attempt yesterday. -- 2026-01-18T13:00:02.583Z
Following the pictorial trend on the idea of Roko's Basilisk, I asked chatGPT to generate an image on how I’d treated it.

You perform the best with a controlled amount of healthy stress.
Too much or too little stress can have negative consequences.
Practice and know your levels and limits. -- 2026-01-18T06:30:02.716Z

I just installed opencode using the “oh-my-opencode” wrapper and asked it to add a feature which I wanted to build in my side project, and guess what… in just 2 big shots, it was able to make a working version of it with minor tweaks from my side.
The value add is insane! -- 2026-01-10T09:36:15.738Z
It genuinely feels to me like GPT-5.2 and Opus 4.5 in November represent an inflection point - one of those moments where the models get incrementally better in a way that tips across an invisible capability line where suddenly a whole bunch of much harder coding problems open up It's possible Gemini 3 Pro should be included in that group as well, but I'm not seeing quite the same level of astonished buzz from hardened software engineers around that model as I am for the other two .
