What I Found Interesting in Claude Code's Source
A breakdown of the most interesting engineering patterns in Claude Code's leaked source code: composable system prompts, runtime instruction injection, context compression, forking, prompt caching architecture, and more.
Rationally irrational
I waste a lot of time sweating small details of code. Stuff that has absolutely zero impact on anything quantifiable. It took me a long time to stop feeling bad about this. I’m not talking about tu…

The amount of code being written at Anthropic continues to rise exponentially.
If coding is solved, what now?: Measuring the sloppiness of code | EARENDIL
Exploring how to measure code sloppiness, why correct code can still erode a codebase, and why human intuition and taste still matter.
Astra for Coding: Why Are We Doing This Again?
Some thoughts on Astra and newfangled long-horizon models.
Procedural Tokens — encoding design decisions
Most design tokens hold a value. The interesting ones hold a rule. A live walk from static refs to procedural tokens.
Deterministic Core, Non-Deterministic Shell - Outdata
Determinism, architecture, and the de-sloppification of legacy code.

Code Is Cheap Now, And That Changes Everything | Pere Villega
AI coding agents have made code production nearly free. Drawing on insights from Kent Beck, Paul Ford, and Simon Willison, this post argues that the value has shifted from writing code to defining systems — contracts, invariants, SLAs, and verification.

Esoteric Fonts
Arbitrary code can run inside a font, what was a power given to compute the complex layout of characters, can be repurposed for esoteric and even practical purposes. This collection reflects the esoteric fonts people have created and the ways to make them.
