I think particularly for iOS development. I was all in on sandboxed approaches...until I went to build an app, and now unfortunately convenience won

Thank you for this project - I am excited to check it out!
My current agentic workflow is having a github repo that is a workspace and essentially a single obsidian vault over it called agents. I modify with Claude code (or other harness), check diffs in...VSCode and read it in...Obsidian.
It's separate from my actual personal Obsidian vault (that I don't send to any AI providers), and is only for agents. It's been really nice on all sorts of varied projects and for performing web research. I also have a bun monorepo setup in the root with varied tools for search, fetching individual websites, setting up folder structures - etc.
But essentially, in my experience, the moment you tell the model that it's in an Obsidian Vault - magic happens.
I am so curious how this will play in with it all and am hoping this will improve my workflow!
Gah - this is unfortunate. This will have me quit as well - I wonder when they will begin to enforce this on the Claude Code front. I remember when OpenAI tried (maybe they still are?) putting this in for GPT 5 and this had me switch from them to Anthropic.
I'm curious what part of the charts would data centers fall under?
I'm assuming it would be under the Energy emissions category, but I didn't find anything particular around data centers or "technology" or "internet" or something like that.
Would it fall under "Electricity and heat"? Or just general "Buildings"? or "Commercial buildings"? Or am I way off base?

For example if AI generates 2x of a utility function that does the same thing, yes that is not an ideal, but is also fairly minor in terms of tech debt. I think as long as all behaviors introduced by new code are comprehensively tested, it becomes less significant that there can be some level of code duplication.
We still run into the same issues that this brings about in the first place, AI or no AI. When requirements change will it update both functions? If it is rewriting them because it didn't see it existed in the first place, probably not. And there will likely be slight variations in function / components names, so it wouldn't be a clean grep to make the changes.
It may not impact velocity or stability in the exact moment, but in 6 months or a year - it likely will, the classic trope of tech debt.
I have no solution for this, it's definitely a tricky balance and one that we've been struggling with human written code since the dawn.
Unclear but I will say upon opening the site I was sparked with joy and excitement to use them
I was under this impression as well - I'd love to hear from someone who's deeper in the know about this!
I also expected it to be more art forward because of "canvas". Visual workspace draws a clear picture for me.
I am doing something very similar to this. I think the workspace _being_ the memory is the way. It's also enabled the workspace to be completely model and harness agnostic.
On top of that, I actually have it as an Obsidian vault, and I have the llm themselves use Obsidian markdown for the frontmatter and knowledge graph linking. It makes it very easy for me to navigate the data and interact in a way that is deeply enjoyable, and it also helps the model navigate the files.
Piggybacking on this - I think it well equips us for a future when local models are stronger. I for one am grateful for efforts like these
I've been using PI for this - just switch to "oh my pi" and am liking it!
Honestly, it's been a dream, I have it running in a docker-sandbox with access to a single git repo (not hosted) that I am using for varied things with my business.
Try it out, it's super easy to setup. If you use docker sandbox, you can just follow what is necessary for claude, spin up the sandbox, exit out, exec into it with bash and switch to Pi.
I was on a plane two weeks ago, and this girl - likely 12 was trying to get the screen in the seat to work by tapping it. Her Mom (likely in her 30s) started doing the same thing, both confused.
I gave it a beat and then reached over and pushed the button to pop out the remote control for them. It was a cute head smack moment for the Mom and the daughter didn’t know what to do with the remote for a solid few seconds.
This happens to me as well when I’m in a public bathroom without a sensor, and I wave my hands underneath obliviously for a few moments.
Life is funny
I would say yes.
The reality is that the money being thrown = the time of humans. I guess compute as well, but in terms of people doing innovation - openly published things are the same thing, minus the money.
What always came to mind for me is an “engine wiring harness”. It’s responsible for getting power and data to all the right places without having to manually route cables around the engine / car.
If you google an image of it, maybe it’ll make sense
I've found immense value in this, am already doing it with Pi(https://github.com/badlogic/pi-mono) and it's very easy to replicate
Seconding this—I had to wait a little bit to download it and play around and have some fun with it. I didn't mind.
What I appreciate the most about this string of comments (from OP) is that digging into "doing it for fun", hosting on your own machine, wanting simplicity for you as the maintainer and builder. This has been a big focus for me over a number of years, and it leads to things being not efficient, or scalable or even usable by others—but they bring me joy and that is more than enough for most things.
The reality is that there are of course ways to make this more efficient AND it simply doesn't need to be.
Good job on making something that people are clearly interested in, it brought me some joy clicking around and learning some things.
If you want it to be more than just this, of course you'll have to make it faster or have it be a different interface—installable offline typa thing so we can expect a bundle download and be fine with waiting. For example I can see this as a native app being kinda nice.
If you don't want it to be more than this, that's okay too.
Regardless, well done
I know you did this in a weekend, but it would be super nice to get some screenshots, or a video into what makes this different.
I also don't know what the "river/awesome philosophy" is, so therefore I don't know what this WM does that makes it different than something like Rectangle for example.
And truth be told, I'm not going to look it up. I am only adding this comment because I'm sure there will be a ton of other people that fall into the same category as me.
Good luck though, super cool to see that you built this in a weekend!
I essentially do a 1 click deployment for my personal site with Cloudflare.
I don't want to deal with the cloud infra for my personal site.
I could, I've done it in corporate, I've done it for my startup 2 years ago. But I'm rusty, I don't know what the latest people are using for configuration, etc.
Because there is 1 click with CF or Vercel and I don't have to think about it—I don't. If they increase their price it likely wouldn't be enough friction for me dust off the rust.
I think this is the relation. I'm not locked in, it's just HTML pages, but I am through my own habit energy, tech changing, and what I want to put effort into, which is not infra and serving my site.
Yeah I see the benefit right off the bat, this is a direct head to Vercel and NextJS.
With that said, I have no idea on the market share or profitability of any of that or Cloudflare vs Vercel.
Also perhaps the rails that will be put in place for seamless 1 click Astro deploy will continue to push them forward with other technologies as well, so it's not just about Astro.
I do feel that fear as well, is this an unnecessary distraction for CloudFlare? Time will tell.
I think just an oversight—disposables weren't really around at the time the time that the ban happened. 2019, people were mostly smoking Juul and having those crazy custom rigs that they fill with the juice. Disposables really started to take off around 2021 - 2022. Atleast that's what I saw with people around me in NY and California.
Well the need is to arrive where you are going.
If we were in an imagined world and you are headed to work
You either walk out your door and there is a self driving car, or you walk out of your door and there is a train waiting for you or you walk out of your door and there is a helicopter or you walk out of your door and there is a literal worm hole.
Let's say all take the same amount of time, are equally safe, same cost, have the same amenities inside, and "feel the same" - would you care if it were different every day?
I don't think I would.
Maybe the wormhole causes slight nausea ;)
and my absolute favorite making a call which would dial the number and then about a second later immediately hang up.
Is it your phone hanging up or are you calling an iPhone in do not disturb mode, in which case you have to call twice for it to go through (because their phone is automatically hanging up on you)
Honestly I love the priority notifications and the notification summaries. The thing that drives me absolutely insane, is that the fact that when I view the notification through clicking on it from another space other than the "While in the reduce interruptions focus" it doesn't clear. Because of this, I always have infinite notifications.
I want to open WhatsApp and open the message and have it clear the notif. Or atleast click the notif from the normal notif center and have it clear there. It kills me
A simple comment, but wow I really like the look of Bonsai! The lighting, shading and shapes are really beautiful, I think a game made in this would feel really unique
My hunch is a loyal user base.
Anecdotally, everyone I put onto Arc and the person who put me on still uses it.
I’ve been using Arc for the last two years and was genuinely sad on its discontinuation. I now don’t really know what I’ll do when it goes away.
Word of mouth. Ironically enough, I just sent this to a friend around the same time you commented this
"I’m curious where event discovery is for___, are there TG / WA groups?"
I don't think it needs to translate to "go on vacation". During my time being employed, this translated into getting up and stretching, taking a few minutes to look out the window, going for a short walk, taking an intentional breath, sitting and meditating for 15 minutes, actually eating lunch away from my computer, or not eating lunch and going for a quick run or doing yoga or going to the gym.
This can come forth in so many ways.
Moment by moment we can have an eye on our body and what it is asking for, I've found it to not only make me more productive, but also led to my baseline of stress to being way, way lower then everyone around me which is contagious in a positive way.
I think there is also a reality in which our scope of what we care about is widened beyond just the human species. As a species that has such a powerful impact on other beings, it would be nice to try and reduce the amount of unnecessary suffering and pain that we place on them. While we cannot eliminate it, life takes life yadayada, we can reduce it and try to curb the mass extinction that we are actively causing.
From another angle, it's taken a really long time for evolution to get to this point, what can be experienced from the myriad life forms is quite wide and widening, it would be a shame to return to only the level of a microbe.
Must we take everything else down with us?
As another mentioned, many of us haven't been trained. Every time I've reached for Siri I've been let down and just did it myself or didn't do it at all.
When I bought the new iphone (coming from Android most recently and iphone before that) I figured that Siri would actually become good because of this translation layer, and then them just not doing that has been a huge let down for me on the phone.
