| Why is Yegge so.... loud? Like, who cares? Judging from his blog recount of this it doesn't seem like anybody actually does. He's an unnecessarily loud and enthused engineer inserting himself into AI conversations instead of just playing office politics to join the AI automation effort inside of a big corporation? "wow he was yelling about agent orchestration in March 2025", I was about 5 months behind him, the company I was working for had its now seemingly obligatory "oh fuck, hackathon" back in August 2025 and we all came to the same conclusions. conferences had everyone having the same conclusion, I went to the local AWS Invent, all the panels from AWS employees and Developer Relations guys were about that it stands to reason that any company working on foundational models and an agentic coding framework would also have talent thinking about that sooner than the rest of us so why does Yegge want all of this attention and think its important at all, it seems like it would have been a waste of energy to bother with, like in advance everything should have been able to know that. "Anthropic! what are you doing! listen to meeeehhhh let me innnn!" doesn't make sense, and gastown's branding is further unhinged goofiness yeah I can't really play the attribution games on this one, can't really get behind who cares. I'm glad its available in a more benign format now |
