Generative AI
Every conversation with your AI starts the same way. "I'm building a Rails app, deployed on Hetzner, using SQLite. " You've typed this a hundred times. But it has no memory. Every chat starts from zero. What if your AI already knew all of that? Here are five notes that make that happen. 1. Your stack, saved once Write one note with your tech stack, deployment setup, and conventions. Now every conversation starts with context. Now ask: "Write a background job that syncs user data to Stripe." Your AI reads the note. It knows it's Rails, knows you use Solid Queue, knows your conventions.
