The biggest problem we face in the west is thinking our institutions are somehow different. Be critical of the product all you want, but don't pretend the exact same thing isn't ha…

The tooling has become so good though - the eco-system around the LLM. The models have become really good, yes - but it's definitely slowed in my opinion. The tooling is what reall…

The entire problem with "AI" is that it's easy to do without. The AI companies know it, the users know it - even the most pro AI agent manager knows it. Thought experiment: remove …

Why is this phrased so antagonistically? For clicks? This is like saying the US is winning the cloud race - it's not a race. The author is completely missing the forest from the tr…

It's pretty interesting because if you look at the net value over the last 2 to 3 years, you'd expect to see a flurry of high value/high complexity/high velocity software being del…

I would not be surprised if AI commits are the culprit. There is no way any service would cope with a constant stream of unfettered commits by sleepless always-on agents. Ironicall…

I think picking up people at the bar is easier than making friends at the gym - what you want is to join a crossfit gym, or something that has a stronger community culture to it. N…

I love coffee, so this is a nice read. Couple years ago I switched to french press, fresh beans (grind on demand) & no milk or sugar - okay, a dash of full cream milk sometimes. Ha…

We initially looked into using shadcn/radix - but it's quite bloated. Maybe even warranted with all the a11y accommodations - even the official W3C ARIA examples are not straightfo…

Yea, was wondering this too.

> Apple hardware isn't exceptional, it's maybe slightly above average Is this a serious statement? If Apple's hardware is maybe slightly above average - what's above it? It's an ea…

For all of the Apple hate recently (with glass + MacOS bugs) - it's still great to be able to invest in high quality hardware. I made the switch to Mac, oh about 12 yrs ago, and so…

Yea, it's a very odd way of referring to people you work with.

Thanks!

Am I missing something - what's with the "tribe" terminology?

Giving an agent this level of access to infra is doing a disservice to people who've trusted this guy with their business.

Let it go. This is clearly a vibe-coded site, the fonts, layout, all look anthroposized. If Mythos was really so good, then they would not share it with anyone.

Some good points, but as a whole - I'm not sure if I agree. Sketch lost to Figma because of it's design tooling & multiplayer. Physical products still get designed before being con…

Any recommendations on good open ones? What are you using primarily?

Makes me think the model could actually not even be smarter necessarily, just more token dependent.

I think it's because it's non-deterministic too. You can't iteratively improve design the same way you can code.

Unless you want something that looks like it's designed by Anthropic, this is still pretty shit. Amazingly "AI" hasn't replaced the very first target on their radar - design.

Working on Fronteer, a project management app that (1) integrates messaging more cohesively with tasks and (2) better supports external collaborators - think agency clients, custom…
