Podcasts about CLI

On this episode of Crazy Wisdom, I, Stewart Alsop, sit down with Dax Raad, co-founder of OpenCode, for a wide-ranging conversation about open-source development, command-line interfaces, the rise of coding agents, how LLMs change software workflows, the tension between centralization and decentralization in tech, and even what it's like to push the limits of the terminal itself. We talk about the future of interfaces, fast-feedback programming, model switching, and why open-source momentum—especially from China—is reshaping the landscape. You can find Dax on Twitter and check an example of what can be done using OpenCode in this tweet.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversationTimestamps00:00 Stewart Alsop and Dax Raad open with the origins of OpenCode, the value of open source, and the long-tail problem in coding agents. 05:00 They explore why command line interfaces keep winning, the universality of the terminal, and early adoption of agentic workflows. 10:00 Dax explains pushing the terminal with TUI frameworks, rich interactions, and constraints that improve UX. 15:00 They contrast CLI vs. chat UIs, discuss voice-driven reviews, and refining prompt-review workflows. 20:00 Dax lays out fast feedback loops, slow vs. fast models, and why autonomy isn't the goal. 25:00 Conversation turns to model switching, open-source competitiveness, and real developer behavior. 30:00 They examine inference economics, Chinese open-source labs, and emerging U.S. efforts. 35:00 Dax breaks down incumbents like Google and Microsoft and why scale advantages endure. 40:00 They debate centralization vs. decentralization, choice, and the email analogy. 45:00 Stewart reflects on building products; Dax argues for healthy creative destruction. 50:00 Hardware talk emerges—Raspberry Pi, robotics, and LLMs as learning accelerators. 55:00 Dax shares insights on terminal internals, text-as-canvas rendering, and the elegance of the medium.Key InsightsOpen source thrives where the long tail matters. Dax explains that OpenCode exists because coding agents must integrate with countless models, environments, and providers. That complexity naturally favors open source, since a small team can't cover every edge case—but a community can. This creates a collaborative ecosystem where users meaningfully shape the tool.The command line is winning because it's universal, not nostalgic. Many misunderstand the surge of CLI-based AI tools, assuming it's aesthetic or retro. Dax argues it's simply the easiest, most flexible, least opinionated surface that works everywhere—from enterprise laptops to personal dev setups—making adoption frictionless.Terminal interfaces can be richer than assumed. The team is pushing TUI frameworks far beyond scrolling text, introducing mouse support, dialogs, hover states, and structured interactivity. Despite constraints, the terminal becomes a powerful “text canvas,” capable of UI complexity normally reserved for GUIs.Fast feedback loops beat “autonomous” long-running agents. Dax rejects the trend of hour-long AI tasks, viewing it as optimizing around model slowness rather than user needs. He prefers rapid iteration with faster models, reviewing diffs continuously, and reserving slower models only when necessary.Open-source LLMs are improving quickly—and economics matter. Many open models now approach the quality of top proprietary systems while being far cheaper and faster to serve. Because inference is capital-intensive, competition pushes prices down, creating real incentives for developers and companies to reconsider model choices.Centralization isn't the enemy—lack of choice is. Dax frames the landscape like email: centralized providers dominate through convenience and scale, but the open protocols underneath protect users' ability to choose alternatives. The real danger is ecosystems where leaving becomes impossible.LLMs dramatically expand what individuals can learn and build. Both Stewart and Dax highlight that AI enables people to tackle domains previously too opaque or slow to learn—from terminal internals to hardware tinkering. This accelerates creativity and lowers barriers, shifting agency back to small teams and individuals.

In this special crossover episode with the brand-new Embedded AI Podcast, Luca and Jeff are joined by Ryan Torvik, Luca's co-host on the Embedded AI podcast, to explore the intersection of AI-powered development tools and agile embedded systems engineering. The hosts discuss practical strategies for using Large Language Models (LLMs) effectively in embedded development workflows, covering topics like context management, test-driven development with AI, and maintaining code quality standards in safety-critical systems. The conversation addresses common anti-patterns that developers encounter when first adopting LLM-assisted coding, such as "vibe coding" yourself off a cliff by letting the AI generate too much code at once, losing control of architectural decisions, and failing to maintain proper test coverage. The hosts emphasize that while LLMs can dramatically accelerate prototyping and reduce boilerplate coding, they require even more rigorous engineering discipline - not less. They discuss how traditional agile practices like small commits, continuous integration, test-driven development, and frequent context resets become even more critical when working with AI tools. For embedded systems engineers working in safety-critical domains like medical devices, automotive, and aerospace, the episode provides valuable guidance on integrating AI tools while maintaining deterministic quality processes. The hosts stress that LLMs should augment, not replace, static analysis tools and human code reviews, and that developers remain fully responsible for AI-generated code. Whether you're just starting with AI-assisted development or looking to refine your approach, this episode offers actionable insights for leveraging LLMs effectively while keeping the reins firmly in hand. ## Key Topics * [03:45] LLM Interface Options: Web, CLI, and IDE Plugins - Choosing the Right Tool for Your Workflow* [08:30] Prompt Engineering Fundamentals: Being Specific and Iterative with LLMs* [12:15] Building Effective Base Prompts: Learning from Experience vs. Starting from Templates* [16:40] Context Window Management: Avoiding Information Overload and Hallucinations* [22:10] Understanding LLM Context: Files, Prompts, and Conversation History* [26:50] The Nature of Hallucinations: Why LLMs Always Generate, Never Judge* [29:20] Test-Driven Development with AI: More Critical Than Ever* [35:45] Avoiding 'Vibe Coding' Disasters: The Importance of Small, Testable Increments* [42:30] Requirements Engineering in the AI Era: Becoming More Specific About What You Want* [48:15] Extreme Programming Principles Applied to LLM Development: Small Steps and Frequent Commits* [52:40] Context Reset Strategies: When and How to Start Fresh Sessions* [56:20] The V-Model Approach: Breaking Down Problems into Manageable LLM-Sized Chunks* [01:01:10] AI in Safety-Critical Systems: Augmenting, Not Replacing, Deterministic Tools* [01:06:45] Code Review in the AI Age: Maintaining Standards Despite Faster Iteration* [01:12:30] Prototyping vs. Production Code: The Superpower and the Danger* [01:16:50] Shifting Left with AI: Empowering Product Owners and Accelerating Feedback Loops* [01:19:40] Bootstrapping New Technologies: From Zero to One in Minutes Instead of Weeks* [01:23:15] Advice for Junior Engineers: Building Intuition in the Age of AI-Assisted Development ## Notable Quotes > "All of us are new to this experience. Nobody went to school back in the 80s and has been doing this for 40 years. We're all just running around, bumping into things and seeing what works for us." — Ryan Torvik > "An LLM is just a token generator. You stick an input in, and it returns an output, and it has no way of judging whether this is correct or valid or useful. It's just whatever it generated. So it's up to you to give it input data that will very likely result in useful output data." — Luca Ingianni > "Tests tell you how this is supposed to work. You can have it write the test first and then evaluate the test. Using tests helps communicate - just like you would to another person - no, it needs to function like this, it needs to have this functionality and behave in this way." — Ryan Torvik > "I find myself being even more aggressively biased towards test-driven development. While I'm reasonably lenient about the code that the LLM writes, I am very pedantic about the tests that I'm using. I will very thoroughly review them and really tweak them until they have the level of detail that I'm interested in." — Luca Ingianni > "It's really forcing me to be a better engineer by using the LLM. You have to go and do that system level understanding of the problem space before you actually ask the LLM to do something. This is what responsible people have been saying - this is how you do engineering." — Ryan Torvik > "I can use LLMs to jumpstart me or bootstrap me from zero to one. Once there's something on the screen that kind of works, I can usually then apply my general programming skill, my general engineering taste to improve it. Getting from that zero to one is now not days or weeks of learning - it's 20 minutes of playing with it." — Jeff Gable > "LLMs are fantastic at small-scale stuff. They will be wonderful at finding better alternatives for how to implement a certain function. But they are absolutely atrocious at large-scale stuff. They will gleefully mess up your architecture and not even notice because they cannot fit it into their tiny electronic brains." — Luca Ingianni > "Don't be afraid to try it out. We're all noobs to this. This is the brave noob world of AI exploration. Be curious about it, but also be cautious about it. Don't ever take your hands off the reins. Trust your engineering intuition - even young folks that are just starting, trust your engineering intuition." — Ryan Torvik > "As the saying goes, good judgment comes from experience. Experience comes from bad judgment. You'll find spectacular ways of messing up - that is how you become a decent engineer. LLMs do not change that. Junior engineers will still be necessary, will still be around, and they will still evolve into senior engineers eventually after they've fallen on their faces enough times." — Luca Ingianni  You can find Jeff at https://jeffgable.com.You can find Luca at https://luca.engineer.Want to join the agile Embedded Slack?

In a surprise move, Snapchat open sources its cross-platform UI Valdi. Valdi lets devs write UI components in TypeScript then compiles them to native views on iOS, Android, and macOS, offers instant hot reload without recompiling, and integrates well into already existing native apps. GitHub Universe 2025 wrapped up just a few weeks ago, and it had a bunch of new AI agent updates to share. Think: a single source to manage agents across GitHub, Mobile, CLI, and VS Code, custom agents with tailored prompts and tools, new Copilot integrations and agentic code review, and Plan Mode. TanStack DB released v0.5 and Query-Driven Sync. With Query-Driven Sync, a component's query is the API call and DB handles the fetching, caching, and updating, and provides different sync modes for different use cases. Chapter Markers:0:47 - Snapchat open sources cross-platform tool Valdi7:08 - GitHub Universe updates15:45 - TanStack DB query-driven sync19:54 - GitHub eliminates toasts22:49 - Firefox has an updated mascot24:09 - Vibe coding named word of the year33:26 - What's making us happyNews:Paige - Snapchat open sources cross-platform UI ValdiJack - TanStack DB query-driven syncTJ - GitHub Universe recapLightning News:GitHub eliminates toasts from their designsFirefox has an updated mascotVibe coding named word of the yearWhat Makes Us Happy this Week:Paige - Holiday light displaysJack - Cursor ComposerTJ - Inflatable dragon yard decorationThanks as always to our sponsor, the Blue Collar Coder channel on YouTube.

In June 2025, the Contact Lens Institute (CLI) published Digital Discovery: Consumer Searches Reveal Contact Lens Realities, a comprehensive look at how and why people are seeking more information about these products online.The report examines multiple aspects of search behaviors, culled from public data sources, primarily focused on the United States and Canada. These include diving into the most common contact lenses searches via Google and on other platforms.CLI data also sheds light on the most common questions that reveal patient challenges, suggesting that the contact lens community may benefit from increased focus on health and safety, cost, wear and care, and how brands differAs traditional digital search evolves with the adoption of AI platforms, CLI also investigated how common large language models such as ChatGPT, Copilot, and Gemini are handling contact lens queries. While steadily advancing, those technologies' abilities to provide the best sources of information are inconsistent, meaning that practitioners may want to have preemptive conversations about AI-generated results with patients who are likely usersAt Vision Expo West, this September, a panel of CLI Visionaries including Andrew Bruce, Dr. Jade Coats, and Jennifer Seymour discussed some of the important findings of the Digital Discovery report.A little bit about the speakers:Andrew Bruce, LDO, ABOM, NCLEM, FCLSA, is a licensed master optician and contact lens fitting specialist in Vancouver, Washington, and founder of ASB Opticianry Education Services. Jade Coats, OD, FAAO, is a nationally recognized optometrist from Bentonville, Arkansas, with clinical expertise in ocular surface disease, dry eye management, contact lenses, and perioperative care for premium cataract and refractive surgery. Jennifer Seymour, LDO, FCLSA, NCLEM, ABO-AC, AAS, is a Nevada Licensed Dispensing Optician, ABO-AC and NCLE-AC nationally certified. Her passion for fitting contact lenses came during her schooling for licensure, learning how contact lenses change patients' lives.Learn more about the Contact Lens Institute and the Digital Discovery Report:https://www.contactlensinstitute.org/resources/digital-search/Love the show?

With the annual trend of fluctuating reimbursement rates, have you been on the fence about turning your OBL into an ASC? Make sure your OBL is prepared for the surprising changes in coding coming in 2026. In this episode, Dr. Mary Costantino partners with fellow OBL owner Dr. Goke Akinwande and revenue cycle management expert Laurie Bouzarelos to review the new CPT code changes and how they translate to OBL and ASC reimbursement.---SYNPOSISDr. Akinwande discusses many positive takeaways after diving into the recent Medicare documents, and highlights key shifts. He believes these changes to add-on codes and territories means one thing: CLI is being heard. The upcoming code changes improve delineation of vascular territories, differentiating between "simple" (stenosis) and "complex" (CTO) procedures. These changes are aimed at rewarding physicians performing the difficult CLI work while decreasing reimbursement for more straightforward cases.Beyond the CPT code specifics, the conversation also covers real-world implications for OBL owners. Dr. Akinwande explains why these changes might narrow the reimbursement gap between OBLs and ASCs, prompting him to warn against ASC conversion. Laurie Bouzarelos provides guidance on implementation, stressing the importance of updating charge masters, reviewing payer contracts for "gap fill" clauses, and monitoring payments once the new codes go live. The episode ends with a discussion on obstacles in billing, collections, and the need for physicians to master the business side of their practice to ensure financial success.---TIMESTAMPS00:00 - Introduction04:37 - 2026 CPT Changes Overview07:18 - Simple vs. Complex Codes13:16 - Key Add-on Codes19:52 - OBL vs. ASC Conversion?24:56 - IVL Reimbursement Trends29:18 - Update Your Charge Master41:41 - Pricing & Medicare Year46:39 - Billing & Collections Reality

For decades, the command line has been a developer's staple. But what if its future isn't to be a better terminal, but something else entirely? We're joined by Zach Lloyd, co-founder of Warp, to discuss this groundbreaking shift in developer tooling, sharing his bold vision that the future for developers is neither the IDE nor the terminal, but a new kind of platform built for launching and orchestrating AI agents. Zach explains how Warp is re-imagining the command line as the natural entry point for this evolution, transforming it from a place where you type commands to a place where you write prompts to solve complex problems.Zach dives into the new developer workflow, where the focus moves up a layer of abstraction from the minutiae of flags and syntax to higher-level problem-solving and guiding agents. He argues that by being the platform itself—not just an app running within it—a tool like Warp can provide a far richer and more effective user experience than traditional CLI agents. Discover the new skills developers need in this era, from problem decomposition to clearly expressing intent in natural language.Check out:AI code review tools: 2025 evaluation guideFollow the hosts:Follow BenFollow AndrewFollow today's guest(s):Try Warp: warp.devWarp's YouTube Channel: Check out Zach's live streams and product videosConnect with Zach: LinkedIn | X (formerly Twitter)Connect with Brooke: LinkedInReferenced in today's show:Team OKRs in ActionIn the Age of AI, some tech leaders think communications degrees may actually be more valuable than computer science degreesThoughts on Motivation and My 40-Year CareerAI, Ads & the Fight for Attention: Infactory Featured in Ad AgeIntroducing pay per crawl: Enabling content owners to charge AI crawlers for accessSupport the show: Subscribe to our Substack Leave us a review Subscribe on YouTube Follow us on Twitter or LinkedIn Offers: Learn about Continuous Merge with gitStream Get your DORA Metrics free forever

“AI is causing such a strain on the energy grid that CSPs need every tool they can to keep costs and compliance in check,” says Adrian Barcia, Product Marketing Specialist at iconectiv. In a conversation with Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News, Barcia explained how iconectiv's Common Language codes—CLI (equipment-level) and SILI (site-level)—help communication service providers (CSPs) and data center operators achieve energy efficiency while strengthening compliance and operational planning. Barcia outlined how CLI codes provide critical details such as power requirements, heat output, and environmental tolerances, enabling CSPs to select energy-efficient equipment and configure networks more effectively. On the location side, SILI codes give operators precise functional context to optimize site selection, network planning, and service delivery, reducing over-engineering and energy waste. With AI workloads driving unprecedented computing demand, energy efficiency has become a top-tier strategic cost for CSPs. Barcia emphasized that using iconectiv's Common Language can cut energy costs by up to 1% annually—equating to $2.4–$12 million in savings for a medium-sized wireless network or data center. Beyond savings, Common Language also helps operators prepare for stricter energy regulations while maintaining service quality. “Now is a prime opportunity for CSPs to gain detailed insights into their network assets,” Barcia noted. “We're ready to partner with providers to unlock savings, compliance, and smarter network growth.” To learn more, visit https://iconectiv.com/.

Wesley Beary of Anchor speaks with host Sam Taggart about designing APIs with a particular emphasis on user experience. Wesley discusses what it means to be an “API connoisseur”— paying attention to what makes the APIs we consume enjoyable or frustrating and then taking those lessons and using them when we design our own APIs. Wesley and Sam also explore the many challenges developers face when designing APIs, such as coming up with good abstractions, testing, getting user feedback, documentation, security, and versioning. They address both CLI and web APIs. This episode is sponsored by Fly.io.
