In the age of agents sometimes work gets done on so many different worktrees and branches its hard to tell if there is already a PR or any of them or not, the great gh cli has us covered.

I like version-fox’s project vfox.

A cross-platform and extendable version manager with support for Java, Node.js, Golang, Python, Flutter, .NET & more

Just starred taskdog by Kohei-Wada. It’s an exciting project with a lot to offer.

Terminal task manager with intelligent schedule optimization.Keyboard-only. No dragging, no micromanagement.

One of the well worded shitty messages I’ve seen, good severance, help, timeline to cut off coms.

we’re not making this decision because we’re in trouble. our business is strong. gross profit continues to grow, we continue to serve more and more customers, and profitability is improving. but something has changed. we’re already seeing that the intelligence tools we’re creating and using, paired with smaller and flatter teams, are enabling a new way of working which fundamentally changes what it means to build and run a company. and that’s accelerating rapidly.

Much better than the get rid of people cause AI can do the work. Honestly I feel this though. I was just talking with some colleages how do we divvy work in the age of agents without just constantly walking on each other. If each of us is now an architect who is managing teams of junior agents under us it feels MUCH different than before.

I’m far from working in a large software org like this and I’m feeling it. I only imagine that it gets worse the more people that have to orchestrate around each other.

Just starred linux by torvalds. It’s an exciting project with a lot to offer.

Linux kernel source tree

This was the inspiration for the next update in dropper that became a full clip editor. The one that I’ve long wanted, but forgotten about. It’s going to include this cropper, resize, image extractor, and trimmer.

Learned about this one from the @stipete interview @scotthanselman did on YouTube. This is proof that the internet is alive. It’s such web 1.0 nostalgia to see that people can just build things! Did you know that you can literally just build things and make them exist? You don’t need users, You don’t need a big platform, you can just make something into existance. It seems like something we have forgotten through web 2.0 where everything as become 4 major apps all linking to each other and trying to hoard all of the attention. Scroll through tehre are some really cool apps, probably nothing that has the polish you want, or is going to change your world. What these apps have more than anything you’ve probably used in the recent years, is inspiration. Its xyz, but the way I wanted, or with my little twist. And no one else has to like it but me because I’m the user.

I saw this in @cassido’s newsletter this week and had to give it a run. I despise that there is no dark mode and it insists on burning my retinas 😤. But really this is an absolute beate of a web based markdown editor, I love the command mode to press slash and it just pops out in this whimsical animation ready for me to pick what I want.

I had no idea there were such things as “reply guy” as a service. I can see this as a really genuine thing where brands want to genuinely engage with their communities, quickly being taken over by slop bros to ruin everything.

Important things to remember in the age of cheap code. More code, not always more better. More code mean, more risk, more maintenance, harder to change.

THIS, THIS is how most people are feeling about AI right now. Theres lots of “oh ai bad”, “but ai help”, “but ai company sleezy”. Cassidy did a fantastic job summarizing how most of us are feeling. Ending with well at the end of the day, I can’t do anything about the bad, the best thing I can do is learn how to embrace the good cause it aint going away any time soon.

This is a wild way to build prototype pcb’s, so cool and creative.

Had 10 minutes to play with the new session updates this afternoon and it feels so much smoother. I can definitely feel it even as a casual user.

There are so many config files right now, glad to see some standards coming in around Agents.md, but so much is still specialized to a whole host of tools that have not been standardized on yet.

This is an abolute banger of a game on itch. It nails the nes aesthetic while keeping true to the modern silksong movements. You can play through the first boss Moss Mother, and where you start the first ascend into Bone Bottom. I was in shock when I discovered the little climb effect hornet does when you just cant quite make a jump, the hold jump for height is on point. Her downstrike with the hunters crest is perfect.

Wyatt would absolutely love this banger of a level.

To the untrained eye this passes as any normal gui editor.

astral silently dropped a clever uvx.sh to help builders reach a wider audience, no longer does a user need to have python installed prior to installing a python cli. It does have a hard requirement on having curl or wget available.

Use a linux vps, It’s easy, just follow these simple instructions.

We are living through the js framework wars for agents and llms now. We will look back on this with clarity, and wonder why we wasted time with things like graphql, and why we couldn’t see the real winners from the start.

Such a good interview @lexfridman is such a talented interview. It’s so cool to see the other side of this. For weeks we’ve heard about the story of the name change, we’ve seen everyone shitting on the security model, buying up all the mac minis in existance, fear mongering not to install this thing. @steipete.me has such a cool story from the beginning talking about making this thing fun and exciting. Giving it a personality that is not “You are absolutely right”. The story of changing the name twice, and getting pwnd on every step the first time and nailing it the second time is incredible. Dude is having fun trying to make the thing he wants in the world exist.

I keep forgetting about the double gutter problem with nested containers. When you put padding on a parent and the child also has padding, you get twice the spacing you wanted.

.container { padding: 2rem; } .child { padding: 2rem; }

Now your content is 4rem from the edge. Not what I meant at all.

Either remove padding from the parent or use box-sizing: border-box and plan for it. I usually just drop the parent padding when I realize what I have done.

The idea of adjustable key caps to mutate your board into something that really fits you, how you type, how your fingers move, is an absolute banger.
