OpenClaw UI continues to improve: - Righthand sidebar rail to give more space for task progress, automations, dashboards, etc - First class UI for multiplayer features like whose online - More intelligent model picker options I do all my coding work in OC now. Kudos to @vhbrzezowski, absolutely crushing it!

Request for startup
not sure how much conviction i hold this belief with but i feel like i really want posthog / sentry / cloudflare / vercel / axiom / planetscale / workos to just be one product it's a lot to have to do well in one but feels like it'd be so good for agents to have it in one place

Everyone has been asking me what I’m up to after the @continuedev acquisition The answer: I wrote a paper with Disintegrator titled *The Superdark Factory: Toward the Full Automation of Software* that was published in Antikythera (MIT Press) today superdark.ai

Replying to @jbahrdestefano
If an agent hammers a platform’s backend 24/7 without rate limits, this is what anyone would do. IMO, @Resy did the right thing by banning the user and keeping the platform fair for all users.

Wife: "You picked up the kids from school, right?" Me: "Three findings, and one of them is more serious than the question you asked."

There may not be many people left in 10 years who can write, or want to read, things longer than a page or two. But there will be at least a few of us, and we'll be a powerful club.

OpenAI and Anthropic are effectively telling the market they can't solve every problem with a generic AI coworker. You don't pour billions into massive forward-deployed joint ventures if you think the next model release is going to take care of it. In the cloud supercycle, semis led and software followed (and you didn't need Qualcomm or ARM to tell you the value was migrating up the stack). In AI, the infra layer itself is telling us the application layer is a separate, massive opportunity they can't fully capture. a16z's @joeschmidtiv on why the app layer isn't dead: a16z.news/p/avoiding-death-o…

announcement: i am actively looking for founders building around one ugly truth: agents compress labor faster than institutions compress bureaucracy. if your startup helps companies reorganize around that mismatch, youre early in the right way.

PLEASE be a product builder. i am begging you. there are 100x more database-tuning devs than actual product wizards who know how to make things people want

Someone needs to build this for euchre ♣️♠️🖤♦️
built an interactive guide to teach you the basics of mahjong ! 🀄 it includes rulesets from different regions (hk and taiwan for now) with a few interactive elements to illustrate mahjong concepts. more demos in thread, and a bit about the tools i used to build this. the one thing this guide can’t really capture is how social mahjong is -- mahjong tables are never silent ! they’re full of overlapping conversations and the constant click-clack of acrylic tiles stacking and shuffling against each other. come to @modal's mahjong night tmrw to experience that part for yourself : )

Stop taking advice from people who've never built anything. If they haven't put something on the line, their opinion on your risk isn't worth hearing. The people who judge the attempt are never the ones making one.

Spent a few days in New York catching up with folks: 1.) Few have heard of Mythos 2.) While people have heard of Claude Code, few have tried Cowork or knows what a skill is 3.) Many F500 non tech companies here aren’t getting any value out of AI because of politics 4.) Too many companies have too much AI slop esp in product roles, removing AI now 5.) Lot of “Gemini” shops since it’s bundled 6.) The same people firing people because of AI are also the same people that still want their decks sent to them as a PDF / printed on desk This technology will take a longer to diffuse than SF tech twitter thinks
