A random mix from the whole library. Shuffle for a new set.
His Notion had 805 random tags because too many AI agents were writing in it. He made a bot to clean it up, and about an hour later it had fixed 12 tags and retagged more than 1,100 bookmarks. Keeping the workspace tidy is now the bot's only job.
Creator Matthew Berman describes giving an AI access to his local machine on a standing weekly job: it scans every file, finds deletion candidates totalling about 380GB, and sorts them into low, medium and high risk. The bot operates under one hard rule — it may categorize but must never delete anything itself.
Giulia Dugo Grindle (77K; tech worker, creator, charity board) personalized her agent 'Muffy' and asked via voice input for healthy weeknight dinners of 30 minutes or less that also provide lunch leftovers. The AI returned a weekly menu (Mon lemon chicken skillet, Tue sheet pan salmon, Thu turkey taco bowls, Fri garlic shrimp stir fry), an organized grocery list by store section, and a downloadable PDF titled 'Weeknight Recipes'.
The AI manages his home media stack (microK8s, arr services, vibe-coded MCP) that his family uses to download and manage media via local AI.
For a tribute video, his AI read transcripts of a man's interviews and talks and wrote song lyrics from them. The finished video was produced and published.
The AI got Omarchy WiFi working on his MacBook, at a cost of 6M tokens.
He lost the source code for his macOS 8 PowerPC programs three decades ago. The AI decompiled the binaries, turned them into a web app, and then converted them to Dylan with OpenDylan.
Saving his Bluesky threads as Markdown files for Obsidian was a chore he kept doing by hand. He asked the AI to build a converter, and the finished tool is up on his site for anyone to use.
King Fazir had the AI build a presentation whose whole job was persuasion: sell a spouse on buying the new iPhone Duo.
He told the AI the ebook he is writing only had endnotes with no links, not footnotes linked in the text. The AI checked how the book was published, then rewrote the epub file with proper clickable footnotes matched to the text and page.
