Grateful to have shared at yesterday's "Kill Your SaaS" event. I have been using @zocomputer for a few months, and it quickly became my most-used daily AI tool. I use it to write and publish social posts, create videos, build my own dashboard, maintain my own LLM-wiki inspired by @karpathy, build slides, schedule daily AI news, create lead-gen landing pages, and much more. Someone asked yesterday: how much building time does it take to replace a SaaS? The honest answer is: it really depends. But in many cases, you can start with a mature open-source project and ask Codex / Claude Code to customize it for your own specific workflow. It is not only about saving money. It is about creating a tool that is hyper-personalized for me, the kind of internal system that would normally require hiring an AI team to build. Because Zo is a cloud computer, you can install almost any open source on it. For example: • HyperFrames + FFmpeg for video rendering, then combine it with a SKILL to create marketing videos for your own brand • Cal. diy for scheduling, then combine it with a SKILL to automatically provide different time-slot selection links for different types of clients • You can even install Hermes Agent and OpenClaw into it I've been paying for software as a “service” that never actually served me. They just gave me a tool to self-serve. • Canva did not design for you. It gave you a drag-and-drop tool so you could design by yourself. • Xero did not do your accounting. It gave you a ledger interface so you could do it yourself. But today, software powered by AI agents — or even a personal computer — can finally help me complete the actual task. That’s what a real service should look like.








Shek next, a quick sharing on how @zocomputer was used to automate a marketing workflow within it! They made use of hyperframes.heygen.com to automatically curate news, and automate certain marketing video workflows. Super cool! 🔥

OpenClaw starts out very fun, then the headaches start happening after a few weeks. I’ve talked to many AI agent power users who are also struggling with OpenClaw. Gateway issues, cronjobs not firing, skills not being used consistently, memory fall off, integrations need re-authentication, oscillating between overeager and undereager, not placing files in the right place. Etc

Hermes在周末突然犯蠢,今天修了两个多小时,最后发现是compaction的问题😭 Hermes 有自动compaction的机制:历史太长时,会调用 auxiliary.compression.model 生成 summary,然后删 掉一部分旧对话,把 summary 塞回上下文里。 问题是:如果这个 summary 模型配置错了、不可用、或者 provider 调用失败,压缩器会报错,但流程不会 停。它还是会删掉选中的历史 turn,然后插入一个静态 fallback placeholder。 也就是说:还没有生成真正的 summary,历史已经被删了。 更麻烦的是,这个失败只写进 agent.log。如果你是通过 Telegram / Discord / Slack 这些 gateway 在用 Hermes,用户侧完全没有提示。你会以为 compaction 正常完成了,但其实上下文已经被截断,而且没有 summary 可以补回来。 这类问题对 agent 很致命,因为它不是“报错失败”,而是“静默成功”。用户继续聊天的时候,只会感觉 agent 突然断片,但不知道原因。 修法大概是:当 summary generation 失败并 fallback 时,把这个状态显式传出来,让 gateway 用户能看 到 warning。 包括两种路径: 1. 自动触发的 auto-compaction 2. 用户手动调用的 /compress warning 里会说明这次丢了多少 turn,并提示检查 auxiliary.compression.model 配置。 已提 PR,救救天才: github.com/NousResearch/h… @Teknium @NousResearch




谷歌在产品上真是太慢了,终于推出了 Gemini 的 Mac 客户端。 全部用 Swift 编写的原生应用. 看了一下,功能相当简陋,很多能力都没有。 比如 Artifact 复杂点,网页都没办法渲染。整个 UI 非常糙,谷歌正常发挥水平。
