Still having a blast with airfiesta.fm, grabbed the flock algo from @jtrdev and tweaked it to make custom birds using simple shapes. Added Parrots from Telegraph Hill in SF and Pigeons from Paris. This inspired to make a whole game based on flocks, they’re super cool.

Having fun working on a multiplayer game + hot air balloon simulation + scavenger hunt. Thanks @shotamatsuda, @garrettkjohnson, @_keiya01 and @jeantimex for making this possible. Give it a try on airfiesta.fm

Just found out about Neuralese, the most spoken language you’ll never speak. Guess I’ll keep mumbling in human while the AIs have their own private chat. 🤖📷 #Neuralese #LostInTranslation diego.horse/neuralese-the-mo…

Built an app to avoid learning languages. Ended up building two platforms, rewriting everything twice, and somehow still feeling productive. Smart Keys for Mac is here, bugs and all. 🧠 minimal ⌨️ flow-friendly 🐛 lovingly buggy Read: diego.horse/the-vibe-life-bu…

The Vibe Life: Building Smart Keys for Mac - Diego Dotta

I didn’t realize I was about to enter the “vibe” industry when I started building Smart Keys. All I really wanted was a way to sound fluent in languages without doing the hard work.

Apple’s shiny Benchmark Metrics are BS, don’t be fooled. See my App Store BS and non-BS numbers at diego.horse/store-conversion… #BuildingInPublic #indiedev #AppStore

Smart Keys store conversion rate is over 50%, while the best apps barely scrape 7%. So either I’m a wizard or this is a BS metric. diego.horse/no-bs-friday-met… #BuildingInPublic

When AI 'studies' too hard, it’s called ‘training’; when students do it, it’s called cheating 🤔 Guess LLMs are just really advanced test-preppers! 📚🤖 #CheatingOrTraining #TimeTravelTutoring #AISecrets whoisnnamdi.com/ai-benchmark…
