Pinch-to-zoom on mobile text has been broken until now. You want bigger text, not a bigger page. So I built a fix that intercepts pinch-to-zoom and resizes text instead of the page. Only two lines of code built on top of @_chenglou’s pretext.
Try the demo at pinch-type.surge.sh

Started playing with pretext over breakfast, and I can confirm, this is really cool

The web is so back! (lol, it never went anywhere)
Cheng Lou@_chenglou
My dear front-end developers (and anyone who’s interested in the future of interfaces): I have crawled through depths of hell to bring you, for the foreseeable years, one of the more important foundational pieces of UI engineering (if not in implementation then certainly at least in concept): Fast, accurate and comprehensive userland text measurement algorithm in pure TypeScript, usable for laying out entire web pages without CSS, bypassing DOM measurements and reflow

After @Pinterest @Airbnb @NotionHQ @cursor_ai, today it’s @eoghan @intercom publicly sharing that they’re finding it better, cheaper, faster to use and train open models themselves rather than use APIs for many tasks.
And hundreds of other companies are doing the same without sharing.
Ultimately, I believe the majority of AI workflows will be in-house based on open-source (vs API). It took much more time than we anticipated but it’s happening now!

So, sharing an idea with @LEGO_Group
Take a photo of a Lego build & propose transformations using existing bricks, with instructions.
My kids these days have taken to building a thing & asking me to make a video which shows it transforming into another thing (mostly rockets)

The revolution will not be televised but it will clean the tv room.
Rohan Paul@rohanpaul_ai
🇨🇳 It has started. A new home service in China pairs human cleaners with autonomous AI robots to tackle household chores. Residents in Shenzhen can now book a service where a human professional and an autonomous robot arrive together to clean their home. Real houses present a chaotic mess of dropped toys and random furniture that confuse traditional machines. @XSquareRobot and a major service platform named 58[.]com decided to tackle this chaos by launching China's first robot cleaner service in March-26. Customers use an application to hire a cleaning crew that consists of 1 human worker and 1 robot. The human takes care of the tricky chores that require complex judgment. The robot handles the repetitive physical work like picking up trash and wiping down flat surfaces. This machine runs on a system called WALL-A, which acts as a single continuous AI brain rather than a list of pre-written rules. They built this AI foundation model to perceive its surroundings and make its own decisions without human guidance. It processes visual data and plans multi-step actions. And deploying these robots into actual homes now provides the massive amounts of extremely important training data to improve it continuously. Alibaba and ByteDance backed this project. IMO, if the foundational model behind it figures out how to navigate a messy living room without getting stuck, it can learn to operate in almost any other physical environment.

I asked Claude to build my daughter an app that plugs into our piano, can read live key strokes, can show her sheet notes and key view and ends with a Guitar Hero style game. All while giving progressively harder songs. Today she’s using It and crushing It.

This feels like cheating.
People pay $30-$50 for custom city map posters on Etsy.
Someone just open-sourced the exact same thing for free.
It's called TerraInk.
Its a cartographic poster engine built on OpenStreetMap data.
Type a city. Customize everything. Download and print.
What you get:
→ Any city on Earth via OpenStreetMap
→ Roads, water, parks, building outlines
→ Full theme and color control
→ Custom fonts via Google Fonts
→ PNG export, print-ready
The whole thing runs in your browser.
No account. No subscription. No checkout.
Self-host it with one Docker command if you want it completely yours.
100% Open Source. MIT License.
Live app: terraink.app

Funny. I call my team (of real humans eh), The Squad.
Amanda Silver@amandaksilver
I spent this past week building with Squad and… wow. Coordinated AI agents living inside your repo, working in parallel, sharing context, and staying inspectable. This is what agentic development is supposed to feel like. Proud of the team pushing this forward. Try it today and you will be on🔥tomorrow. aka.ms/AA1096on

A Fortune 500 exec who runs one of the biggest blue collar companies in the country DM'd me yesterday.
Gave me an idea that I'm starting to get really excited about.
Build a version of YC for blue collar builders who use Claude Code.
Essentially an accelerator for blue collar founders building for trades, construction, fleet, field services, etc. Whatever their domain expertise is.
They offered to help fund the first batch, and we started to put together a list of incredible mentors.
It's crazy how fast the power dynamic in software has shifted.
But this could be very big.

if your specific niche is also "bizarre anecdotes about 1970s computer scientists" i have built your holy grail: just took a thousand oral histories from the @computerhistory museum and made them fully searchable and deeply interconnected welcome to f0lkl0r3.dev

This is the main reason I didn’t bother buying a Mac mini. It was always going to come back to your phone. The dawn of the truly personal computer is here.
Felix Rieseberg@felixrieseberg
We're shipping a new feature in Claude Cowork as a research preview that I'm excited about: Dispatch! One persistent conversation with Claude that runs on your computer. Message it from your phone. Come back to finished work. To try it out, download Claude Desktop, then pair your phone.

@mountain_mal @theworldlabs Would the elements of the generated world be fully 3D too? Like could you move things around? Say you rendered an auto repair shop, could you move the vehicles to different locations within the generated world?

i built an app that converts any space into a digital clone in minutes
as the founder of Teleport - the only iphone app that can capture high-quality 360° panoramas - i already had the perfect input when @theworldlabs released their 3d reconstruction api
📍 first test - a co-working space in chiang mai 🇹🇭
the flow:
1. capture 16 ultra-wide photos
2. stitch into a 360° equirectangular image
3. reconstruct a fully navigable 3d environment via @theworldlabs api
there’s something profound about exploring these 3d worlds. it brings you back in a way photos never could.
