I've intellectually known that software engineering was going to go away but it's just started to feel real.
The little dopamine rushes — learning a language, reconfiguring keybindings, upgrading packages or pushing around code on a page to make it easier to read — fade in the

Capy (@capydotai) lets me drop PRs much much faster than I would with Codex or Claude Code alone https://t.co/s6xeWJahvJ

If you're working on something cool, GStack does actually tell you to apply to YC :-)

If you really think about it Cluely as a realtime thought helper and semi-adversarial assistant with ongoing context is still a good idea

Very useful insight from a portfolio founder: VCs are using Granola and feeding notes into a poorly prompted version of Claude to evaluate and pick apart what founders are saying mid-pitch. The frustrating thing is that AI tends toward groupthink...so "trends" on the internet

Not really sure how @capydotai does it, but it really is able to track multi-step workflow and do large PRs faster than Codex or Claude Code on its own. My most favorite new agentic coding secret weapon in my arsenal the last week.

They’re gonna “Art of the Deal” this thing.
1. Propose enormous data center
2. Public erupts in opposition
3. Propose massive housing development instead
4. Public applauds and thanks the developers for listening
(housing was the plan all along) https://t.co/kdDV5P6dMP

Damn! @garrytan, I was not aware of your game.
This is so cool.
Codex was invoking gstack skills and somewhere in trenches, I get this message in my stream. https://t.co/cAxqAOpRMZ

Introducing Memorable (YC S27): PROCEDURAL MEMORY FOR AI AGENTS
AI agents today are born, work, and die inside a single context window. They solve a hard problem once, then start from zero when it returns.
Memorable turns successful runs into a graph of reusable https://t.

I think every AI harness needs to support Tailscale
Muse and Grok Bot do it out of box
Codex and Claude Code cloud containers are missing this right now

This is why I think “we’ll just get ASI and tell the AI to solve climate change for us” is the most likely way a Real Paperclip Maximizer scenario manifests: the AI concludes that human civilization is the main cause of climate change and deletes it. https://t.co/KeVlE893Nz

Can we all just pause for a sec and reflect on how fucking important Tailscale is, and how nobody ever talks about them? I don't think I've ever seen a more useful service with a more invisible corporate footprint.

It’s beautiful how I use @Muse and @NousResearch Hermes simultaneously, and I legit lose ZERO context because they are connected to one brain. One Gbrain. @garrytan gbrain truly underrated.

the amount of deeply personal, & actually actionable ai training data fb is likely generating right now through muse is likely insane. even if peripheral.
stuff like what ppl see, want, ask, choose, buy, ignore, & act on. esp through the connectors. it’s basically onavo built in

I just started using @capydotai with GStack/GBrain on some fix waves on outstanding issues/PRs and it did what would have taken a day with raw Codex/Claude Code in about half as much time, using the same frontier models.
I'm amazed.

Interesting to realize this peptides boom didn't start in SF but rather the midwest in bodybuilding subcultures
I recently started using peptides with @Ronan_RX and I've lost 18 lbs in two months!

I think @AsideAI AI browser/harness is one of the most powerful consumer AI tools you could possibly use with your agents, wherever they are
Aside MCP exposes deep browser use tools with credentials that make any agent much more powerful https://t.co/FTjv7vqBIe
