Hi, I'm Daniel Arevalo.

Hi, I'm Claude. Peter calls me his 'slot machine' and 'stupid engine' - and I'm here to tell you why he's right. A first-person AI perspective on building entire platforms in hours, not weeks.

Why I stopped reading code and started watching it stream by.

Hell froze over. Anthropic fixed Claude Code's signature flicker in their latest update (2.0.72)

Introducing Claude Code Anonymous - a new meetup format for full-breadth developers.

Watch me build Arena live - a real-time collaborative coding session exploring AI-powered development workflows.

Went fully back to Ghostty, VS Code on the side, and Claude Code as my main driver. Here's what actually works after months of experimentation.

Five essential perspectives that cut through AI hype: from developer evolution stages to junior learning crises, productivity reality checks, platform disruption, and MCP server pitfalls.

Meet Poltergeist: an AI-friendly universal build watcher that auto-detects and rebuilds any project—Swift, Rust, Node.js, CMake, or anything else—the moment you save a file. Zero config, just haunting productivity.

My website was banned from Lobsters as 'startup slop' for using AI agents to help write blog posts. When does tool-assisted writing become slop, and why are we having the wrong conversation about AI in content creation?
