Shoutout to people who don't overthink blog setups. "thisismypersonalblog.com" AND GO. It'll do the job.

On a technical note, your setup is not far from where professional setups are headed [1]. Astra is really doing an end-run around (for now) research Robotics setups.

I would rate that as an AI-assisted setup for a traditional research robotic workspace. No different than "Claude set up ci/cd for this project", just much more hands-on (pun intended). Software ate the world so anything that can generate software is going to make world-space interactions easier.

I also got a SO-101 and mucked about a bit. I stopped partly because I realised my idea of putting a laser on the end of it had potential risks but also when you’re just prompting an agent to do things it’s hard to feel that you’re really “learning robotics”.

This post has given me some inspiration though!
