<p>I write code and have a complicated relationship with simplicity. When not writing code, I enjoy collecting hobbies. I say &quot;collection&quot; but it&#39;s more of a crudely curated &quot;hodgepodge of curiosities&quot;.</p>

    I jotted down the bones of something I&amp;#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&amp;#39;t know that that means you can only make mediocre things with LLMs though. I believe it&amp;#39;s possible to make nice things from mediocre ingredients. I&amp;#39;m from the midwest. That&amp;#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.
