I second that. If they would offer zero data retention and optional even EU residency, we would immediately use it. In particular with the new image feature.

Maybe it's possible via their Digital Ocean offering https://ideas.digitalocean.com/changelog/now-available-jev-f...

Looking at the screenshots, this looks close to what an agent factory for teams could look. Agents on multiple servers, people can see each conversation. Test it…

During my PhD I used a agent based simulator called https://www.netlogo.org

Logo was just perfect for thinking in Agents

One of the hardest thing for me when reading Arabic is to identify the start and end of letters. I have started using monospace Arabic font with little gaps. Works great. https://github.com/eliheuer/hasubi-mono

This project is super cool. And it shows what agent factories can do. However I’m not sure how well it’s protected against malicious tickets/actors.

Each time I found a bug. I (Claude code, let’s be real) post a detailed bug report. And this project usually fixes it in less than 24h. So now, I have an agent pulling the newest changes each day checking if my issues is fixed.

It’s so much fun.

Btw: I have a very similar experience with the Mastra project.

haha how cool.

Not sure if I’m out of touch (not doing robotics right now) or if things just slowed down. Back in ~2013 it looked like humanoid robots were just around the corner. Boston Dynamics became a hit. Aldebaran’s Pepper was presented. And the DARPA Robotics Challenge was on everyone’s lips.

And then suddenly, nothing.

That is so awesome. I wish I had that 11 years ago during my Microsoft Research Internship. I had a NAO robot (from another great French company) and it walked to employees to motivate them to do some movements. To prevent long term injuries from being in the same position for too long. It had a visual compass but it didn't work. And just telling to "walk straight" clearly didn't work :D Here is the video in case someone is curious: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aZkmNqpJCcM&t=190s (and the paper: https://brandstetter.io/papers/Fidgebot_Working_Out_while_Wo...)

Pretty cool. I always thought merges should happen by comparing the AST and not lines
