Dev Log

Notes from the forge: thoughts on AI, software, and whatever else sparks.

2026.04.17 The Guilt Engine #career Why the more you build with AI, the further behind you feel. Notes on the ambient pressure to keep shipping, and how to tell useful guilt from the kind that just burns fuel.
2026.04.14 The Llama That Wouldn't Fit #ai I tried to ship a 3B parameter Llama inside an iOS app. iOS had other ideas. What jetsam, extended memory entitlements, and Apple Intelligence taught me about on-device AI.
2026.04.10 The Models That Work Too Well #ai Anthropic won't ship Claude Mythos. OpenAI is staggering Spud. Two frontier labs, one week, the same flinch. Default-ship is quietly becoming default-gate.
2026.04.09 Everyone Hates AI in Games. Everyone's Already Using It. #ai 85% of players reject AI in games. 90% of developers already use it. The gap between those numbers is where the future of game design actually lives.
2026.04.08 AI Gave Robots a Brain. The Hard Part Just Started. #ai Jensen Huang called 2026 the "ChatGPT moment" for physical AI. The real story is more interesting, and more complicated.
2026.04.06 The Three-Year Forecast for Knowledge Work #ai AI hasn't wiped out knowledge jobs yet. But the next three years will reshape them beyond recognition.
2026.04.05 The Spark Came Back #career AI coding tools didn't just make me faster. They brought back the part of building I thought I'd lost for good.
2026.04.04 Work Work: How Claude Code Joined WoW's Addon Arms Race #ai When Blizzard killed WeakAuras, RWF guilds turned to Claude Code to build custom boss addons mid-race. AI coding tools just became part of competitive raiding.
2026.04.03 OpenClaw: The AI Agent That's Selling Out Mac Minis #ai OpenClaw turned the Mac Mini into a personal AI appliance. Here's what it is, why people are buying dedicated hardware for it, and what can go wrong.
2026.04.02 What's the Difference Between LLMs and World Models? #ai Yann LeCun just raised a billion dollars betting that world models are the future. Here's what that actually means.
2026.04.01 Strawberries, Sisters, and Carwashes: What Viral LLM Failures Actually Reveal #ai Why the internet's favorite LLM gotchas aren't random bugs, but windows into how models actually work.
2026.03.31 The Software Developer of Today Writes No Code #career I handed off all code writing to Claude Code. The job already changed.
2026.03.31 Botwash: A Post-Mortem for a Product That Got Out-Evolved #product Building for a problem with a shelf life, and what I'd do differently next time.
2026.03.30 Slipstream: Building a 51M Parameter F1 Expert LLM in a Weekend #ai A transformer from scratch, trained on F1 Wikipedia articles. 51M parameters, 3.5 hours on a MacBook Pro.

About

Lloyd Rowat
Lloyd Rowat Builder. AI tinkerer. Lifelong learner.

I'm a software developer with over a decade of experience building platforms, shipping products, and leading technical direction across companies of all sizes. I have a Master's in computer science from the University of Waterloo, and my career has taken me from telecom systems to data analytics to construction tech.

These days, AI is where my energy goes. I see it as the most important shift in software since the internet, and a turning point for humanity as a whole. I'm excited to keep learning and to be building at its edge.

Grayforge Labs is my personal forge — where I take the ideas that won't leave me alone and turn them into tools that actually work. I build software the way a blacksmith works metal: with patience, precision, and an obsession with getting the details right.
