@samarth7na @thdxr Loving the new design. I wish I knew I could toggle it sooner. Was waiting too long for the redesign

@benswerd are these tui or web components? I didn't understand this from the website though they look like normal react components. I am building a tui and a registry like this could have helped

Hustle culture optimizes for input (work), not output (impact).
It is okay to put in long hours. It is okay to sacrifice things for your goal. But do not waste effort optimizing theatrics. Put your effort into things that actually matter, things that move you closer to what you really want.
If you do not know what you want, get that clarity first. Your goals cannot be a copy-paste of someone else's goals.
You succeed only when you put effort in the right direction, at the right time, on something you genuinely care about. If you are seeing a dead end, switch.
You cannot and should not be perpetually delusional.
Hope this helps.

I’m convinced that a large % of programmers don’t actually like computers.
As a side effect, are also perfectly happy to throw away their reasoning to a model as soon as they can.
I don’t get it, at ALL. Don’t you *LIKE* understanding the magic of the machine?
You do realize hand-programming (I hate that I even have to specify hand now) is fun…right?

@mrjeremyblaze @neverbeforeco Is there anyway to test the product? Really interesting
English

Everyone’s building the orchestration layer for code. Few are building it for entire companies. @neverbeforeco is giving this a go.
A few weeks ago we killed most of our internal tools and replaced them with one unified internal platform. Our stack is now:
1. The platform
2. Slack
3. Figma
4. GitHub
5. Xero (accounting)
That's it. That's every tool. The platform orchestrates across all of these.
Every client gets a space: tasks, notes, messages, files; all in one knowledge graph. Agents pick up work and deliver it end-to-end, looping in humans only when needed. Figma and GitHub have first-class integrations, so designs and code ship without leaving the platform (agentically or by humans). Even Xero has an integration to automate billing.
The real unlock: one surface for the whole business. Context engineering is now the bottleneck for AI adoption, and you can’t engineer context that’s sprawled across a dozen apps.
We're dogfooding this for ourselves and our clients. If you want a demo though, DM me.

@samgoodwin89 Interested in knowing what is going under the hood. Is it using durable workflows?
English
Alireza Najafi retweetledi

AI has brought the cost of development close to zero. That should make building easier. It actually makes it harder. When anything can be built, the constraint has shifted to judgment (from time or resources).
Yes, clock the 120-hour weeks if that is what it takes. But that effort only counts if it moves in one direction. Motion does not mean progress, and hence hours of work in different directions make the vectors nullify :)
It does not matter what level in the corporate hierarchy you operate at; learning to say no is the actual skill. At least put forth your opinion. At least it will make leadership think a bit more, or teach you a new mental model of decision-making.
I feel judgment will separate the teams that build something real from the teams that just build a lot.
Hope this helps.

100% agree. This is the current sweet spot.
All the skills and setups have big “I optimized my text editor” energy.
Lucas@rvcas
I don’t use loops, skills, fancy orchestration, plugins or anything like that. I raw dog the agent with its default harness, I read the code, and I’m shipping more than ever to production for real projects used by real people. Sometimes if it’s a low risk part of the application I might skip reading the code but only sometimes. I think most are either lying about the amount of value they are creating or just having fun while understanding they aren’t creating value but failing to distinguish that to their audience.

@gingerhendrixai Interesting. Does it handle object storage as cold storage of the streams as well? github.com/s2-streamstore… and slatedb.io could be nice references though they are not using the Electric SQL protocol
