“Here’s the crucial insight: as models improve, the value of engineering effort diminishes…” - if that’s true (and I suspect it is), how should it inform our approach to building AI products right now? https://lukaspetersson.com/blog/2025/bitter-vertical/

Survived Xmas in Vegas with family. Learned how to bet craps. Saw lots of shows (first time seeing Cirque and holy shit was that amazing). Solved Meow Wolf's Omega Mart. Went to the gym every single day. Ready to take on 2025 now... LFG 🏃‍♂️

For a lot of existing tokens, it would take a significant time and capital investment to move to a compatible (or wrapped) contract... but looking forward I think the writing is on the wall for bridges. Their value add has always been faster settlement and access to broader liquidity; this addresses both. That said, we've seen "bridges" moving towards and embracing things like cross chain swaps for years, so I don't expect that to go away. For use cases outside of Token A :: Chain A -> Token A :: Chain B, we still need other solutions. There will still be utility (and money to be made) in solving cross chain and token-paired liquidity.

I've been talking intermittently about crypto being most useful when it's an implementation detail. I think most folks that came for the revolution and have been around and building for a few cycles feel that way. I have no hate for speculation, but it's definitely not why I'm here. Memecoins are a fun way to play with network effects. Full stop. It's just not something that's super interesting to me... maybe because I'm terrible at networking and speculation 😅 I just ran across this article and it definitely resonates along these lines. I want the invisible blockchain revolution. I'll check in with y'all on the speculation, but it's not my jam. https://paragraph.xyz/@thecostcokid.eth/the-blockchain-illusion-metrics,-mirages,-and-meaningless-growth

Completely inevitable. It can also work really well when used with constraints and rigor. I've been leveling up at using LLMs to write maintainable and well-factored code, but it really does require me having an idea of what the architecture ought to look like and being VERY judicious about what I'll accept from it.

Figured out how to run Qwen 2.5 Coder with a 32k context window and have zed.dev recognize it properly 💪 1. Start by running your choice of the model under ollama, I'm using the 32b model: `ollama run qwen2.5-coder:32b`. 2. From the subsequent prompt, run `/set parameter num_ctx 32768` to set the context size 3. Save that parameterized model with a new name: `/save qwen2.5-coder-32b:32k` 4. quit the ollama prompt and run the new parameterized model: `ollama run qwen2.5-coder-32b:32k` 5. open Zed's settings.json and add/update your ollama stanza like so: ``` "ollama": { "api_url": "http://localhost:11434", "available_models": [ { "name": "qwen2.5-coder-32b:32k", "display_name": "qwen 2.5 coder 32K", "max_tokens": 32768 } ] } ``` Once you have max_tokens set, Zed will recognize the correct context window ♥️

No matter where you stand on the election, most can agree that big money in politics stinks. Last night, Maine struck a blow against corruption by passing a measure limiting PAC donations to $5,000 per donor. If you want this nationwide, please consider donating: https://secure.actblue.com/donate/sp_case

My last week with AI-assisted development has been pretty annoying. What often starts out as a good suggestion from the LLM can quickly turn into a sprawling and poorly defined refactor that would have been quicker and cleaner for me to do manually. Some thoughts follow...

The @chaindrop team got some great photos done while we were together in Japan, so I've retired my NFT PFPs in favor of one of those. I've also changed my name in my profile, though my handle will stay @mrmemes.eth 🐈
