@Shpigford I bit the bullet and had my openclaw do a full knowledge transfer saying I was giving it to another openclaw instance, and then gave it to dispatch. It's done about a 70% recreation so far, there is a lot of nuance missed and tasks that it can't do, but trying to find workarounds

i need to hear from opus 🦞 users on what they've successfully switched to. if you've never used opus as your daily driver in openclaw...you frankly have no clue what you were missing so all these random obscure models probably seem totally fine. i assure they are not.

claude having wild thoughts today 😆

@USA_Polling lmaooo wow he’s at 25%

The threat of NATO’s break-up, easing sanctions on Russia, a massive energy crisis in Europe, halting aid for Ukraine and blocking the loan for Kyiv by Orbán - it all looks like Putin’s dream plan.

@unusual_whales what a loser

Trump: We can't take care of daycare. We're a big country. We're fighting wars. It's not possible for us to take care of daycare, Medicaid, Medicare, all these things.

Look at this. This wallet has just put an $800,000 bet on boots on the ground in Iran. They previously were right about the time US struck Iran first. Unusual.

@hbogirlsbot a simpler time when email was fun

A greener city has to be a fairer city. We’re bringing fast, affordable EV charging to working drivers and underserved communities—starting with a new hub in Flushing, Queens. Eight chargers. 80% charge in under 15 minutes. The first of 10 sites coming this year.

Hello @NintendoAmerica , I am confused and frightened. This video has made me unlikely to purchase one of your products ever again. x.com/WhiteHouse/sta…

@felixrieseberg yes!!!!!

A little feature drop I'm excited about: Claude Code now natively run PowerShell! #powershell-tool" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">code.claude.com/docs/en/tools-…

@jasminewsun @TheAtlantic congrats!!!

Personal news: I’m joining @TheAtlantic as a contributing writer! It drives me nuts how wide of an understanding gap there is between SF AI world and everywhere else — especially given the immense public stakes. There's so much AI hype, anxiety, and misinformation; so doing translation and synthesis feels more important than ever. (This role is in addition to Subst*ck, where I’ll keep writing at the same cadence.) I'm using this excuse to share some rambly media thoughts: namely that tech journalism can & must be great again. The problem with “old media” is that it often refuses to take tech bros at their word, and the problem with “new media” is that it’s often just advertising, which is boring even for the subjects. There’s a doom loop where some reporters write poorly-informed stories, so insiders won’t talk to them, so sourcing is worse; not to mention that most journalists are not based in the communities they cover. This makes people bad-faith, but it also means a lot of AI reporting is 6-12 months behind. Yes, fantastic blogs/podcasts abound — these are the bulk of my info diet — but they are largely insiders talking to insiders, too niche to recommend to policymakers or smart non-AI friends. These fractures are a disaster for shared public knowledge, and make us less prepared to navigate AI well. Magazine writing offers the ability to rise above of the hourly play-by-play (squinting at every new model release, every new jobs report) and to the bigger questions. I actually think the most impactful AI writing has *months*, not days of longevity! Rather than over-anchoring to any particular forecast, it offers generalized frames for operating under uncertainty. A few types of pieces I’m especially keen to write: 1) AI culture: A few people’s idiosyncratic personal beliefs regularly change the world. It thus matters tremendously how AI builders view their work, politics, philosophy, and the future. I think most individuals in the AI industry are good and want their tech to do good. Journalists can portray AI workers’ earnest beliefs while being appropriately skeptical of how that can clash with or be shaped by industry incentives, and how it might diverge from the public. "Smart people confront hard moral/intellectual problem" is one of my favorite genres. 2) AI diffusion: AI discourse disproportionately focuses on its impact on software and writing because those are the jobs the messengers do (obviously I’m guilty of this). That makes me want to do more field reporting on AI in education, manufacturing, healthcare, etc: e.g. can I ride along with a team trying to integrate AI tutors into a school? Diffusion is rarely as smooth as economic models predict, and “how AI will go” depends largely on the speed, and where it hits first. Relatedly: AI in the non-western world. 3) AI superusers: Polls show people are highly anxious about AI’s speculative effects but sanguine about their personal use. I think more people should experiment with AI to feel both the pace of progress *and* its jagged edges. While AI can produce slop/surveillance/etc, it can also extend human ability & creativity. I want to paint portraits of people already “living in the future" so we can ask: is that a life we want? The tech is here, but we can choose how to relate to it. If you have ideas/feedback/etc my DMs are open, and my Signal is jws.27. For me 1-1 conversations are *not* on the record unless we say so. (I always thought this was a weird norm, and in general am happy to answer people's questions about “how journalism works” from my POV because it can be quite opaque.) (also I'm replacing my blurry macbook selfie with a b&w portrait profile picture to signify reluctant induction into the label of "capital-j Journalist.” I spent most of last year pretending to be funemployed, but I suppose this is graduation. end of an era!)

The background noise in open offices, in multiple experiments, decreases the ability to do analytical work, increase bugs in software, and decrease the ability to find bugs. Open floor plans are just a bad idea for any solo work.
