I can't remember how I felt about a conversation last week. So I built dyeary. Talk for two minutes and it writes the entry, tells you what you were actually feeling, and remembers who kept coming up. Live today on iPhone and Mac.

@dv_neem sick! are you using a set animation library?

Been working on the onboarding experience for a notes app. 📝 Added some transitions to make the flow feel smoother and more connected. i’d love some feedback. What do you think?

@thomasboser @joshnkeezy thanks bud!!

@Affanyfan @joshnkeezy This is beautiful

@rsuyoy looks awesome! love the noise touch. really slick.

Random side project: I’m building a Codex-like agent orchestrator but with a sidebar that doesn't make me question whether the ppl who make sidebars ever use them extensively. I think Codex/Claude code's desktop app's sidebars kinda suck, so I’m going Arc-style instead with one colored space per big project, split screen, smooth dragging, folders, a command + T pannel (not demoed below).... just for myself for now. It’s written in Swift and already feels great. I’m lowkey planning to switch off Codex entirely once I polish it up, the main thing holding me back is Codex’s STT, which is genuinely excellent and sadly isn’t exposed through OAuth :( (Basically forked @theo / @maria_rcks’s T3 code and wrapped it in an Arc-like sidebar I had already made for savant.computer)

@deepmatmul @thomasboser @hiloopai Good stufffff Karan!

Every AI company should own its data, its models, and the research lab that keeps making them better. Today, @thomasboser and I are launching @hiloopai to make that possible. The frontier advantage isn’t access to a model. It’s the research organization continuously improving it. Your product already generates the raw material for better intelligence: proprietary data, production feedback, evaluations, and domain expertise. Very few teams have the research capacity to turn those assets into better models. Hiloop builds and operates that capability with you. Bring us the model your product depends on, the data that makes it different, and an evaluation that defines success. We reproduce your baseline and run an autonomous research campaign against it. Agents pursue competing hypotheses in parallel, build on previous results, and promote only improvements that survive verification. Our researchers validate the winners and bring them into production. The work can run hosted or inside your environment. You retain control of your data, and the resulting models, evaluations, and research artifacts are yours. We’re starting with model training, post-training, and inference optimization, where progress is measurable and the value is immediate. But this isn’t a one-off model improvement. It’s a persistent research capability that begins each campaign with everything learned from the last. Over time, the lab accumulates research memory and improves its own tools, evaluations, and agents. The process used to create better intelligence gets better itself. That’s infrastructure for recursive self-improvement. If your product depends on a model and an important metric has stopped moving, bring us the model you can’t make better. We're much better at research than making videos! Reach out to us: founders@hiloop.ai

i don’t want to get political but in light of today’s events it needs to be said: el farolito in san francisco has the best mexican food in the country

@YSLTANNERUSA @zackgolden @charliekirk11 It's literally in her memoire. Are you saying her book is fake news?

@zackgolden @charliekirk11 Has to be fake CNN liberal news right? There’s no way Trump would appoint someone like that to be DHS secretary !!!

@icmpressure @signulll I got one 🙃

they’re losing altitude fast, & the cockpit’s arguing over snacks. remarkable. the “dating apps are feeling like a thing of the past” line is accidentally profound because it reveals she knows the whole industry is having a moment but she’s still thinking in terms of features & markets rather than the deeper anthropological shift. in order to solve her problem, you’d need someone completely from the outside, & judging by the ppl she has hired again thus far, it gives pure negative confidence.

@9to5mac change it back cowardsss!!
