I focus more on reading code & prompting claude to write code for me at a high level. I also experiment a lot. I don't write code anymore by hand except in very rare cases. I ask claude for questions about the code to build understanding. I have it produce documentation, which is then consumed into other prompts. Often, claude code will need several minutes on a task so I start another task. My coding throughput on a day to day basis is now the equivalent of about 2-3 people.

I also use gemini to try out trading ideas. For example, the other day I had gemini process google's latest quarterly report to create a market value given the total sum of all it's businesses. It valued google at $215. Then I bought long call options on google. Literally vibe day trading.

I use chat gpt sora to experiment with art. I've always been fascinated with frank lloyd wright and o4 has gotten good enough to not munge the squares around in the coonley playhouse image so that's been a lot of fun to mess with.

I use cheaper models & rag to automate categorizing of my transactions in Tiller. Claude code does the devops/python scripting to set up anything google cloud related so I can connect directly to my budget spreadsheet in google sheets. Then I use llama via openrouter + a complex RAG system to analyze my historical credit card data & come up with accurate categorizations for new transactions.

This is only scratching the surface. I now use claude for devops, frontend, backend, fixing issues with embedder models in huggingface candle. The list is endless.
