The CTA flavor of the year for dev tools is cURLing some arbitrary install script and run it immediately which always sounded ridiculous to me. If instead that script first pipes into claude -p for a basic vulnerability scan before continuing, I would be delighted.

Because I don’t need to. The strategies don’t require me to hand type CSS.

As an eng who spent over a decade on frontend and hasn’t touched CSS since last November, I’m ecstatic for this news.

Nothing a frontier LLM has built me in the last year has been satisfactory to me. Every detail was shipped after millions of tokens stripping back and optimizing what Fable/Opus started doing.

The process is leaner and faster, but frontend isn’t “solved” just because LLMs exist.

Wouldn’t searching an index be faster? Unless you’re really digging through a site for some super deeply nested link?

Diffbot might be the only company that offers a self-hostable fully airgapped web index with access to content cache (ala archive.org). I work here, happy to share more info about how it works!

Another Discord alternative that still lacks an iOS app. I personally don’t mind but if I am to switch my entire friend group to an alternative, native apps on mobile is a fundamental requirement.

Basically a self-hosted Google SERP scraper?

Codex uses SerpAPI. Its been snuffed out of its thinking traces. Not sure about Claude but likely similar.

Very difficult to promise ZDR if you’re scraping Google and Bing.

This is neat. I like the zen background sounds. I'm particularly fascinated by digital third places with extremely limited social interaction (like cursor camp by Neal). I think it has something to do with the impossibility of something like this happening in real life.

That said, I'm not sure how real the "koi you see are other people visiting the pond together with you" bit is. I only ever saw 3 swimming koi. Maybe that's the base.

This has been my ongoing gripe. Someone put chat in front of a transformer model. It exploded like all prior versions of “AI chat” did. Now what?

The moment someone figures out a new modality for LLMs is when we’ll see the next hockey stick.

The plot thickens. Frankly even if it did get music right it would be tough to replace streaming my own Plex music library directly on my Apple watch. 100% worth paying for cellular.

Gotcha! Been a minute since I’ve looked it up.

This person gets it.

It was fine up till the 13 mini. Every iPhone after that is too big and heavy to fit in a running belt without jostling.

Assuming you’re using the Garmin for fitness related reasons — are you really carrying your phone around with you for music? I guess it works if you bike?
