I think a few things explain these kinds of projects 1. There are a lot of Agentic Data Plane startups for knowledge workers(not really for coders[1] but for CFOs, Analysts etc) going up. e.g https://www.redpanda.com/ For p

Wait. I don't understand the threat vector modelled here. Any agent or two isolated ones that the do Webfetch and code exec, even in separate sandboxes, is pretty much game over as far as defending against threat vectors goes. What am

Good to know its similar. Oh I actually do have a text box as well, but using it to type from the phone is not very convenient. Too much typing, I generally STT into the text box. I don't use it to code much, unless I have specced it o

Congrats on the launch. I've been fooling around with using my pipecat MCP( https://github.com/pipecat-ai/pipecat-mcp-server ) with WebRTC. The WebRTC is hooked into a Webapp interface and this allows me to "t

Venturing a guess. Its the hype of the non-technical automation crowd. APIs are hard for these people to grok and work with. The others are the engineering/dev/product crowd, the best among them have a high BS detector threshold.

Nice. I store my photos on Dropbox and now duplicated locally on a home NAS. They don't have a photograph based product like Google memories, which I really like. I've been de googling and looking to reproduce it. I've been n

Coding can be a joy and art like. I — speaking for myself — do feel incredibly lonely when doing it alone for long stretches. Its closer to doing graduate mathematics, especially on software that fewer and fewer know how to do well. It is a

I am not sure why people are getting hung on the price, i.e. this: "They have the gaul to pitch/attention seek a 1$/day with possibly little/no product". The price can drop TBH and while there is some correlation on

How does your approach differ from BrowserOS, not in the product sense(their product is ane enterprise browser based off chrome). but in how they designed the interface between the browser and the models?

When Claude does WebSearch it can delegate it to a sub agent which of it ran in the background will write the entire prompt on a local file and the results. If that happened, I would like to know what it gave you for that. It is always very

I think one thing these things could benefit from is an optimization algorithm that creates prompts based on various costs. $$, and what prompts actually gives good results. But it's not an optimization algorithm in the sense gradient

I've done that in contributions to unknown people's repo but not necessarily open source ones. I believe that this is quite under valued for the reasons I listed. In addition, 1:1 contact can speed up things immensely in such situ

One (narrow) circumstance to make the process of reviewing a large contribution — with significant aid from LLM — easier to review is to jump on a call with the reviewer, explain what the change is, and answer their questions on why is it n

One thing that is interesting to think about is given a skill which is just "pre-context", how can it be _evolved_ to create prompts given _my_ context? e.g. here is their web artifact skill builder from desktop app: ``` web-artif

This is also quantitatively correct because for two people coming in from afar you might change two trains or a bus and train and each ticket is at least 3.00$(bus/path from NJ) which is 24$ minimum both ways, with more than two it wou
