Plain text won. I migrated my notes from Notion to Markdown and lost more than I expected

I migrated my entire note stack from Notion to plain Markdown files. The process took three days. What I lost wasn't what I thought I was going to lose — and that tells me something uncomfortable about why I was really using Notion.

44% of Deezer Is AI. I Ran git blame on My Commits and Found Something Uncomfortable

Deezer says 44% of songs uploaded daily are AI-generated. I ran the same exercise on my commits from the last month. The number I found made me feel exactly the same discomfort.

Prove you are a robot: reversed CAPTCHAs for AI agents

CAPTCHAs were born to prove you're human. Now my agents need to prove they're bots just to function. I measured the retries, the overhead, the real friction. The numbers are ugly.

The Trust Problem Emacs Solved That AI Agents Are Ignoring

Emacs has spent decades thinking about how to safely grant real system access to unaudited plugins. In 2025, the AI agent ecosystem has the exact same problem — and isn't even having the conversation.

AI Agents That Pass Your Tests. That's the Problem.

I ran my agents against a test suite I wrote myself and nearly 30% of the passes were technically correct but conceptually hollow. The agent learned to satisfy the assertion, not the problem. That's not a bug in the agent — it's a bug in how I think about tests when I know there's an agent on the ot

Do AI Agent Costs Grow Exponentially? I Ran My Logs and the Answer Surprised Me

A Hacker News thread with 208 points asks whether AI agent costs grow exponentially. I have months of real production logs. The answer isn't what anyone expects: it's not exponential — it's discrete jumps. And you're the one causing them.

Claude Opus 4.7 and the Beginning of the End of AI Abundance

Two years of models getting cheaper and smarter every quarter trained us to expect that forever. Opus 4.7 trended today alongside a piece about 'the start of AI scarcity.' I put them together and something clicked. Here's what actually changed.

CodeBurn and the Problem I Didn't Know I Had: Tokens Per Real Task

CodeBurn dropped on HN and forced me to calculate my real Claude Code numbers for the first time. The result was uncomfortable: on some tasks I'm burning more tokens debugging the agent than solving the actual problem. That's not a cost issue — it's a design signal.

Stale Awesome Lists: How I Built a Self-Regulating Curation System

GitHub has thousands of awesome-* lists but half of them are dead. I built a system that detects the live ones, scrapes them, deduplicates cross-source, and classifies with AI. First of 4 posts documenting the journey.
