Introducing Impeccable 3.5, the best way to design in production: iterate on real UI with your AI agent, in the codebase you actually ship. Turns out many popular design skills, including Impeccable and Anthropic's frontend-design, weren't actually very good at...design (the wor…↗

I smell a takedown in 3...2...1 clawd.rip↗

I understand the concern of skills atrophying when using agents. But so far I am not seeing it. Instead I have learned all sorts of dark secrets of linux networking I somehow didn’t learn before agents building a networking product.↗

One thing people underrate about the smart zone: It's a great way to save on tokens. When you're in the dumb zone, sending 600K tokens on every request gets expensive FAST Yes, you get charged for cache hits. Less, but it still adds up.↗

I've been using state-of-the-art models to teach small models running on my computer how I work. The result : a personal agent that runs my inbox, my deal pipeline, my blog, my calendar, & my research. 🧵↗

My Agent Stack For Automating My Personal Life My agent manages my emails, SMS, Whatsapp, Telegram and pretty much everything to automate my personal life. People keep asking me how I use agents in real life. I mean the actual boring things that make a day disappear: reading Wh…↗

Still lots to learn about the Pi agent from Dillion's approach. I shared Dillion's Pi session with my Pi agent, then asked it to identify gaps between how I use it and how he does. I also provided the analysis Luis did on the session. It gave me this, and so much to learn.↗

Bill Gurley: Anthropic Thinks It’s Building God @Jason: It is the ultimate level of narcissism and delusion of grandeur to think you can create God. @bgurley: “Anthropic is a mystery to me. I've never, ever seen a company that is both leading their field and the most negativel…↗

🥳 My 6 week old side project just surpassed 2.5mill downloads on npm. 🧃TokenJuice was started as a concept to help reduce token use with tools, as a TypeScript SDK and in an MIT licence for all. It now supports close to 100 different coding IDEs and harnesses. Crazy stuff!↗

Watch me control my computer with just my voice. This is the future of operating systems. No hands. GPT-Realtime 2.0 is very, very underrated. Demo:↗

A rational conversation on where AI is actually going with @benedictevans For 20+ years, Benedict has been one of the clearest, most reliable thinkers on where technology is heading, and how it'll impact our lives. He was @a16z's resident "thinker" for 5+ years, and has spent t…↗

Been teaching codex to be my QA assistant. For every commit it creates a user-test scenario and uses webVNC (crabbox), computer/browser use (peekaboo/mcporter) to test OpenClaw like a user/QA person would. This runs in the background and opens PRs with fixes.↗

Introducing Agent Cookie. 🥷🏻🍪 For anyone running @OpenClaw or @NousResearch's Hermes on a Mac mini: I kept finding my agent logged out of everything, and it sucked. So I fixed it. "Add this to my Amazon cart." Sorry, logged out again. "Order my usual on Instacart." Nope, not…↗
