Just got my author copies of "From Ruby to Elixir"! Now that Twitter hides likes, you can like this tweet and no one will know you secretly like Elixir. #myelixirstatus

@StatueofIBBertY (I'm sorry I had to)

@StatueofIBBertY Are you testing stools daily to ensure consistency?

If you saw my post yesterday, you know we're focused on tool safety and cost for workflows. In that vein, I'm REALLY excited to announce our latest Cotera launch: Subagents! You can now chain multiple Cotera agents in a single workflow. Each subagent runs its own LLM with its own stools - the benefit here is that you can use the right AI models (and not just the expensive ones) for each part of the workflow. What you can do with it: 🎯 Specialize per step. ChatGPT for nuanced research, Gemini for creative, Mistral for quick classification. The right AI for each job. 💰 Cut cost without cutting accuracy. In our tests, a GPT-5 mini subagent chain matched GPT-5.5 on accuracy at roughly 16x lower cost. 🔒 Keep agents safe. Each subagent only has the tools it needs. A refund agent can't accidentally trigger sending a marketing email! Let us know what you think!

@BHolmesDev I'm a big fan of BlockNote

I was getting really annoyed with TipTap + Prosemirror, so I decided to give Slate a try. ...Man, where has this library been my whole life 🥹 This bulleted list demo took me weeks to get half-working in TipTap. In slate, it took a couple hours (with Codex's help)

@StatueofIBBertY lmao

I ran the "should I walk or drive to the car wash 100 feet away" question to 14 of the latest AI models. Look, shit on Gemini all you want, but it's the only frontier model that got it right. Yes, Claude 4.7 still got it wrong. All through Cotera, btw

@IamSandeshSoni Yes all data stored as UTC. Then if you need to convert do it either client side (ideal because it "just works") or pass the user's time zone to server and convert there. NEVER persist a time that's not UTC. And avoid persisting a raw date. (impossible to convert.)

This hallucination is driving me crazy. handled on server but missed on mobile apps. I assume keeping all the databases in UST timezone (+ code handles time zone) is industry standard. I am just exploring how do others deal with this.

I have a customer 📱 & vendor 📱 app, and a backend. Server DB stored records as UST time zone. The vendor app sends an event and the customer app see it. Now the app being IST timezone see incorrect time & todays data as yesterday. biz effected 1/n #indiehacker #buildinpublic

@georgemillo Devil is in the details. I love working with our GraphQL API, but I also view the importance more at the implicit (meaning guaranteed) documentation + typing layer and NOT in the "complexity of the graph" I would not want 1 query that goes 10 layers deep, for example

I’ve only worked on one project that had a complex GraphQL API and it was a huuuuge mistake. So much convolution and complexity for dubious benefit. Never again

@bcardarella I did 1 prompt (slide deck generation) and hit 50% of my weekly allowance.

I take back what I said. This is a super aggressive usage limit. I maybe worked in Claude Design for 2 hours total? Maybe because it is still beta?

@hwallop @roam It's okay to be a little bit weird. They make a great product 🤘

I'm on a website of @roam, a remote office software provider. On the "our team" page, all the execs are dressed up like they are on the Star Trek Enterprise. Is this a new thing in Silicon Valley? Or is everyone at Roam a weirdo?

@howard Yea I'm in Kyoto now. Spent last 10 days in Tokyo.

@YOOOODAAAA you here?

See you soon 🇯🇵

@howard @TheNathanRuff Yea. It just feels a little sparse. I'm not sure if reactions / comments are needed but that's one place my head went to.

@YOOOODAAAA @TheNathanRuff you mean the UX of our public share link?

Thanks @TheNathanRuff for the push on select area.

@bcardarella Yea for sure I get the frustration there. That would piss me off if I was having issues with servers on their platform

@YOOOODAAAA My gripe is they're selling a Platform As A Service without the Service.

Seriously, fuck fly.io

@bcardarella They're in the right from a "they can do that" perspective. But I 100% think it's a crappy short-sighted business practice. So I'll vote with wallet and also stop endorsing them.

@bcardarella I was able to get the report finally. It took about 2 weeks and purchased via separate org. Small thing, you could argue it's fine, but not an experience I've had with any other vendor. Especially critical subprocessor

@bcardarella I specifically ran into issues when I realized I would need to change my billing model to add the soc2 addon. Instead of being chill and just sending report, they basically said only option is to change billing. I ended up buying it on a separate account to get the audit docs

@bcardarella Basically held the report hostage ("just give us some $ no biggie") They were the only vendor we had that did this. I just don't support it and think it's a shitty practice. I reached out to them respectfully about it and never heard back.

@danielzarick With how hostile LinkedIn is, making your own with AI seems like the most likely future for most LinkedIn related integrations. Pretty slick.

The chrome extension I used for scraping LinkedIn posts got deprecated. So I had Claude code whip me up a better one, which also lets me push/update right into our Notion database where we track our posts. Works super well.
