Feels like you could start being productive in Effect | TypeScript for the AI Era with only 10-15 functions, but I have no idea yet which of the 500 or so of them I should choose. Still, my investigations continue.

gql.tada is just nuts. Instant type inference from graphql strings. It's like tRPC for GraphQL.

I poured my 10 years of teaching experience into a skill. It's called /teach, and it can teach you anything. Here's how it taught me to solve a Rubik's cube:

Opus 5.5 has been building animatics for me - draft versions of videos I'm about to film. It walks through the actual lessons, creates stills of what it thinks the learner should see, and narrates them with TTS. It's outrageously useful for planning videos (watch on 2x speed, it talks slow):

/grill-me and /grill-with-docs are changing No more "one question at a time" - now it asks questions in rounds Faster, less token spend, but still keeps dependencies between questions clear. Shipping in v1.2

My Ralph Wiggum breakdown went viral. It's a keep-it-simple-stupid approach to AI coding that lets you ship while you sleep. So here's a full explanation, example code, and demo.
