<p>I write code and have a complicated relationship with simplicity. When not writing code, I enjoy collecting hobbies. I say "collection" but it's more of a crudely curated "hodgepodge of curiosities".</p>

I jotted down the bones of something I&#39;m thinking about. The working title is Human In The Loop Mandate. The thesis is that removing the driver to increase the engine’s speed causes the system to crash into a state mediocrity. These notes feel like a good start to something. https://ryanparsley.com/note/2026-05-02-hitl-mandate/

I agree that LLMs make mediocre code. I don&#39;t know that that means you can only make mediocre things with LLMs though. I believe it&#39;s possible to make nice things from mediocre ingredients. I&#39;m from the midwest. That&#39;s how most of our recipes work. Have you had a rice crispy treat!? It is synergy for your mouth.

Watching Raspberry Pi basically double in price is a bummer. For irrational reasons, it makes the thought of working with the ones I already bought seem less fun.
