What I was getting at with the "we" in the post is more how we talk and think about work like this. I think it is different in kind to previous projects I've done where a relied on google, stack overflow and elbow grease. Programming has always been "standing on the shoulders of giants" kind of work, but doing it with agents feels different from that. Maybe it was a poor stylistic choice, but I think we need a way to talk about it in an honest way.

> This is my first time writing up a project that I worked on using an AI agent. I kept writing “we” because the project felt like a collaboration.[...] On reading it back, saying we feels like an accountability dodge, because of course I’m fully and solely responsible for any errors in this write-up or code. But just using I/me also feels dishonest, because so much of the implementation here isn’t fully mine so I feel like I’m taking too much credit for my collaboration with the machines. I figure this is a new kind of pronouns debate we’ll be having for the foreseeable future.

I think it is an interesting topic.

> This is the kind of "lore" that's impossible to catch from raw data.

Agreed this project definitely banged up against those sorts of walls a few times. Still think it's worth trying, hopefully the information offered one can find outweighs any distortions it introduces. Maybe something that should have been explicitly acknowledged in the piece.

> I like the Essential Mix visualisation even more! It's such a shame most of the other ones appear dead due to API changes.

Thanks, happy to hear that. I keep meaning to go back to the essential mix one, get new data and apply some of the stuff I've learned since!

Demographic analysis would have been interesting I agree, but I didn't know of a good data source for that and it's hard to parse from line up data (especially in places one isn't familiar with)

I don't know what the mechanism/incentive for getting a standard would be either. Probably most likely would be if there was one clear "winner" that everyone else felt the need mirror.

In any case, appreciate the reply and the tool. Good luck with it.

One annoying thing I've found in testing these tools is that a standard hasn't emerged for using the results of one request as input for another in the syntax of `.http` files. These three tools for instance have three different ways of doing it:

* hurl uses `[Captures]`

* Vscode-restclient does it by referencing request names in a variable declaration (like: `@token = {{loginAPI.response.body.token}}`).

* While httpyac uses `@ref` syntax.

From a quick round of testing it seems like using the syntax for one might break the other tools.

Gives you similarly obscure videos, but without any context or links which makes it feel more ephemeral and random in my view. Have spent many hours down that rabbit hole, makes me feel like I'm watching the interdimensional cable from Rick and Morty

If:

1. You love the Simpsons (well seasons 2-10 anyway).

2. The day-to-day trenches of adult life sometimes get you down.

3. You have a special little one.

Then this de-motivational plaque creator might be for you! I use it as a reminder that sacrificing for other people, in a myriad of petty, unsexy ways every day can be deeply meaningful.

For context here is a clip from the original Simpsons episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3njZSDjW7Q4

I think this "trend" is likely to be fake or at least wildly overblown. But I built a digital version that you can use for free. Take the gpx of a real run of yours and create a faster version that you can then upload to Strava. I'd encourage you not to use it!

Yeah I'd be interested in seeing similar stats for other cities.
