Sure it’s not “Gemini AI Pro Max Duo Notebooks for Workspace Personal”? /s

I highly recommend either SimpleLogin or Fastmail aliases. The latter are superior because they can be used to reply directly to any received email without needing to set up reverse aliases.

When you own your own domain, the switching cost between providers is small. You can make a dedicated domain just for aliases

Both SimpleLogin and Fastmail have excellent integration with password managers as well

I can’t reconcile the super intelligence koolaid with the objectively bad performance of Claude code. Surely they could have used their “too powerful to release” model to vibe better performance? with a few skills thrown in for good measure. Heck, even throw in an auto research loop

Well at least this time we don’t have to worry about them rewriting their tooling in Rust

As GTA V before it, 6 probably has 20 years worth of content updates ahead. Might as well be well compensated for it.

A post about React?! Nature is healing

Levie’s Law of AI Psychosis

IMO the killer feature of tailwind is that it lives alongside your React components so you keep things DRY, and you get a design system with type and spacing scales out of the box. It’s a form of constraint that helps create structure. But I think that makes it a victim of its own success. The tailwind spec becomes ever more complicated the more native CSS features it tries to include. I’ve seen tailwind incantations go way beyond editor wrap line

I still like it though. it’s one of those abstractions that actually helped me learn. I would go to the tailwind doc pages and see the underlying css of any class.

There were some other frameworks I got excited about: vanilla extract and stitches, both made by some really talented people. I wonder why those never quite got the same traction…

“Our company doesn’t make any money and burning tokens didn’t seem to help so we’re gonna lay some people off to make number go up”

In my opinion, AI art is best when it laughs at itself in a meme context. For e.g. the recent General Grievous Pawn Stars video, or the Indian Hulku-re meme. When it tries to take itself too seriously to approximate reality, then it becomes icky.

A message devoid of any meaning. Like wtf does agentic era prep mean? Is their AI spend too high? Are they not profitable?

Also just once, I wish one of these CEOs would give themselves a slap on the wrist and take a pay cut

I feel like many replies are missing that this is satire

Great product! Would love to see some search (tree view) and git (staged vs unstaged diffs) improvements in the future!

The thing that has kept me away from Warp has been support for bind keys and Atuin. Excited for this!

How can vintage models be contamination free if a newspaper clipping with “general relativity” accidentally slipped through into the training data? I don’t see such a guarantee described in the methodology

Ahh couldn’t they vibe a solution to make CC cheaper?

Can this drive a Studio Display XDR at 120 Hz? I wonder if anyone else is thinking about this and how to figure out compatibility.

What even is that list lol? So edgy

Ehh I made the same trip (HW4, latest update), it’s not particularly impressive. The car gives up under harsh sunlight, tailgates big trucks leading to rock chips, switched lanes without signaling, sometimes would teeter on lane change and then swerve back.

Get a kobo Libra color. Put Koreader on it. add the bookfusion or LocalSend plugin. Thank me later

There’s a recent Patrick Boyle video which puts it aptly: prediction markets are a wealth transfer from retail investors to trading algorithms and people with security clearances.

Anyway, one thing I don’t understand yet is how new markets are created. They aren’t user generated, so how did an “Iran strike” market exist to begin with?

I can manage session cost effectively myself if forking and rewinds were first class features

Notebook Navigator solved Obsidian for me

Bose Quietcomfort (i have the 2nd gen ultra now but I've owned other models too) live up to their name for comfort. Very lightweight and the earcups are large enough that they don't pinch. They may not have the best ANC or featureset, but I enjoy mine immensely

I suspect chain of thought while building the chart will improve the overall correctness of the answer

I saw Current Reader (no affiliation) posted on the web a couple days ago. It seems like a nice way to keep up to date with many hundreds of feeds by giving them different priorities, where for example a low priority feed may disappear from view quicker than a higher priority one. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/current-reader/id6758530974

I used to use Reeder pretty religiously but as websites started to lock down their feeds and charge subscriptions, it became less useful over time. As readership declines, publishers are rightly concerned to protect their remaining revenue by charging subscriptions. I would love for a new protocol to exist which could compensate providers appropriately and allow for consumer choice in reading with whatever app

The framing (and name) of this company (subsidiary?) is a bit unfortunate. If this had been built as a natural extension to the Raycast API, with the advertised benefit of being able to create desktop applications, I think it would go over a lot better than presenting it as a different product altogether that dilutes the main offering

For someone like me who never got the opportunity to play with Flash, what are some modern equivalents? Is it Rive or Three.js? Or even Godot Web?

Are integration vendors like Pipedream in trouble now that every company is pushing out MCP servers and CLIs to ride the AI craze? After the Twitter and Reddit API troubles of prior years, I can't imagine any company would willingly bring down the walls of their gardens and give easy access to precious user data. I'm waiting for the rug pull

I tried all of Codex, OpenCode, Claude Code and Cursor these past few weeks. It was surprising to me that all of them have slightly different conventions for where to put skills, how to format MCP servers (how environment variables need to be specified etc), what the AGENTS/CLAUDE file needs to be called, what plugins/marketplaces are...it's a big mess for anyone trying to have a portable config in their dotfiles that can universally apply to any current and future agent.

It also showed me the difference between expectation and reality...even though these are billion dollar companies, they still haven't figured out how to make lag-free TUIs, non-Electron apps, or even respect XDG_CONFIG. The focus is definitely more on speed and stuffing these tools full of new discoveries and features right now

There's a bit of psychology around models vs. harnesses as well. You can't shake off the feeling that maybe Claude would perform better in its native harness compared to VSCode/OpenCode. Especially because they've got so many hidden skills (like the recently introduced /batch), that seem baked into the binary?

The last thing I can't figure out is computer use. Apparently all the vendors say that their models can use a mouse and keyboard, but outside of the agent-browser skill (which presumably uses playwright), I can't figure out what the special sauce is that the Cloud versions of these Agents are using to exercise programs in a VM. That is another reason why there is a switching cost between vendors.
