A bit underwhelmed by the AGI being just the Android Gemini Intelligence

@EdenKollcinaku could probably be part of the Journal app instead, but I guess we're in the era of "speed is everything"

Guys, stop wearing Lulu style pants. They look bad and are made of plastic. - Favorite casual pant and my most worn pant of the last two years are a track pant from Needles. Lounge but can also dress them up. - Vintage Levi’s are undefeated for everyday jeans. I have 4 pairs, all were $50 or less. - TOAST is a great brand for menswear and have a bunch of pants that are comfortable with elastic waist…but are actual very nice. I’ve got two pairs (one jean, one cotton) and I wear then to work and just casually all the time. - Bare Knuckles jean is quickly becoming one of my most worn pairs. Modern wide (but not too wide) and tiny flare at bottom (but not too much), deep pockets, mid-high wasted so tushy looks good (most men’s pants are to low and makes tush look horrible), really made well and good price. Pick three. - Ralph Lauren (RRL specifically) are also kinda undefeated in classic American “Ivy” styles pants. Pair attached is also one of most worn pants in last 5 years. Very easy wear, gets lots of comments even tho very basic. “They’re just RL man.” - Acne Studio is known for their pants. Their stuff has gotten wilder over time, but they also have a few just classics like these straight leg. Khakis that are well-made mid the high rise easy to wear casually easy to dress up. - Big Bud Press is a funny one and I would highly recommend just buying a few pairs. Go with the long if your normal/tall. Everything is unisex and the photos on the site are something. But they really are just a very simple elastic band, workwear pant, cheap and can be worn very casually but also nice enough to wear out. I got one pair several years ago and wear them all the time. They come in every size you can imagine. - A.P.C very well known for their selvedge jeans which I bought, but never put in the work to break in. I do have a pair of drawstring, navy blue khakis from them that I wear all the time. I can’t find them in a photo or online anymore, but been thinking about getting another pair specifically these seersucker for the summer. Others: Buck Mason (sweats, jeans), Uniqlo (basics), Lemaire (fancy boy modern), Husbands (70s style trouser), CDLP (home pant / pajama), Saturdays (randomly have solid casual dress trousers)

I'm looking but surprised to find there is no open-source version of a screenless tracker like this or whoop. I don't want to be stuck seeing my data in their apps; I want to buy the sensors and vibe engineer my own dashboards + own my data. Is there anything like that?

Introducing Fitbit Air. It’s lightweight, screenless and comfortable enough to wear 24/7 — with a battery life* of up to a week. * Battery life depends upon many factors and usage and actual battery life may be lower.

Algunos sois muy jóvenes, pero hubo un tiempo donde para solucionar el problema de la vivienda se construían viviendas. Muchas viviendas Podían ser más bonitas o más feas, pero eran viviendas Ahora te hacen unos bloques de 3 plantas para ponerse la medalla, y no solucionan nada Porque el problema es mucho más grave. Madrid incrementa su población en 48.000 personas al año. Hacer 524 casas más o menos no resuelve nada ¿En qué momento le cogimos miedo a construir en altura? ¿En qué momento se prohibió construir más de 3 o 4 plantas?

Jorge Rodrigo Dominguez@jorgerodrigodo

La solución para generar más vivienda y que bajen los precios es construir, construir y construir. En la @ComunidadMadrid lo estamos haciendo gracias al Plan Vive, con más de 5.300 hogares ya entregados. Y muy pronto sumaremos nuevas promociones como la de Boadilla del Monte, con 524 casas que se pueden solicitar desde el lunes 11 de mayo. Gracias al @Ayto_Boadilla y su alcalde @jubedal por la colaboración.

@aandreug @Volagn Nomad café is great. But I honestly haven't tried everything both of them are offering - there might be something from Syra that isn't tasteless or just pure sourness 😅

This week was the first time our CS team was all together. Same room, one timezone. Barcelona 🇪🇸 There’s something magical about getting us all together. Hackathons, relationship building, and no Slack thread… Just a whiteboard and some markers. The part that stuck most with me was getting to finally put a real in-person moment to these faces I work with async every day.

This take makes no sense to me. I just wrapped up a 7 week project where Opus wrote nearly all my frontend code. The results? After dialing in my instructions and skills, I rarely find things worth changing in frontend PRs these days.

@theo I think it's time for browsers to part their ways on some level. We build for Android and iOS, we might as well build for Chrome and Ladybird

the most underrated design tip is to be mindful of how your copywriting breaks to lines and creates shapes in a composition you should be aggressively comfortable rewriting sentences to avoid widows or to make the "visual shape" of paragraphs more uniform and satisfying

It's crazy the anti-ai data center people keep talking about water usage. Talk about noise pollution, electricity issues, security, anything but water issues. All the data centers is equivalent to ~10 acres of corn.

This is exactly what I'm looking for. Showcases the size leverage isn't being removed by AI – small teams still build just agent orchestrators, while big companies think much bigger.
Maggie Appleton@Mappletons

Got to talk at @aiDotEngineer conf last week about the need for collaborative AI engineering. All our current coding agents are single player. We're trying to scale up individual productivity, but creating tons of alignment problems in the process. We have no good tools for...
