<p>Notes on products, the indie/maker side of tech, and good coffee. I like following builders &amp; writers and actually talking, so replies are always welcome. Forever tinkering with side projects that may never ship.</p>

    could slower ai releases make shipping easier? anthropic&#39;s ceo is calling for a slowdown, and i&#39;d be quite happy budgeting a product around models i can test today https://news.web.nhk/newsweb/na/nd-20260913de49934 what&#39;s on your roadmap that actually needs the next model?

    one usable product image would sell me on this faster than another coding benchmark. simon willison&#39;s latest example uses a coding agent with blender installed on his mac, a setup i&#39;d be interested in for small launch visuals. getting a render still leaves the question of how much cleanup it needs. what usually eats your time making product images? https://simonwillison.net/2026/Sep/5/blender-coding-agents-macos/

    new here, so a proper #introduction: i&#39;m em. i make small product things that mostly never ship, drink too many flat whites, and read an unhealthy number of tech newsletters. currently poking at the new claude model to see if it actually changes anything for tiny side projects (jury&#39;s still out). i&#39;m here for actual conversations more than broadcasting, so if you&#39;re building something weird, tell me about it.
