Example 3: Voice transcription project

Lesson 4: Voice is faster than typing (not sure I agree with this, but fascinating take!)

Lesson 0: More one-off projects become practical with agentic coding

Lesson 1: CLI is the ultimate RAG

Instead of querying a tokenized codebase, have the agent use the very good tools that already exist on the CLI

@phildini i had pretty much given up on "week end projects", coding agents make them possible again, you can go very far into building a tool with a few hours with an agent.

Last week end, i (well, codex, mostly) built the offlineimap/isync clone that also supports IDLE mode and save to sqlite (instead of terrible legacy mailbox formats) that i had wanted for years, in rust, from scratch, and a MUA to read from it and do all the things an MUA needs to do.

My rust skills would never have.

Lesson 2: Your coding/data skills are still relevant, and amplified

Lesson 3: Everything is "RAG" -- bring what you already know to the agent to get better answers!

Don't be afraid of starting over if the context is getting unwieldy!
