now: openclaw gives me a daily personalized news brief through angela merkel posing as a news anchor with a heavy german accent no one understands the age of PERSONALIZED SOFTWARE is HERE

Here is how I do and don't use agents, idk who this will help but its worth spelling out my preferences and why: - I tell the agent to code how I would do it - If the language is one I am _very_ familiar with I feel comfortable getting it to generate very good idiomatic code that is indistinguishable from my own and doing large refactors - If the language is one I'm not comfortable with, I keep the pull request under 100-200 lines of code for the reviewers sanity since I can't discern the nuance of good/versus bad code - ALWAYS read/self review the code before opening the PR, the onus is on the AI wielder to make sure the code is up to par with what they would do themselves before inflicting their teammates - never auto open PRs because of ^ - if you do all the above you can avoid slop and not annoy your peers my name is jessie frazelle and i have not touched code in an editor since october.

feels like a good day to revisit this video of defunkt at github universe in 2017

We went from petting individual servers to running thousands of containers. Nobody misses the ‘craft’ of manually SSH-ing into everything. What happened to ops is now happening for SWEs.

@theo Isn’t graphql great for LLMs to generate efficient queries for lookups?

Upsides of AI: I haven't heard anyone mention GraphQL in years

@mark_k @OpenAI Pssst 🤫

OpenAI engineer "never felt more bullish" about the company. The question arises: What did Jeff see? 👀 🧄 @OpenAI

@steipete Is also an easy and elegant solution 👀 🤐

me: i don’t use worktrees, I just have multiple checkouts because less mental load people: 500 replies with over-engineered worktree management apps ☠️🙃

@thdxr It’s happening, everybody stay calm!

in opencode v1.1.11 you can now use your ChatGPT Plus/Pro plans in OpenCode /connect to set it up

wow, OpenAI is cooking, this is going to be fun!

Today, new models in Codex 🎉 - gpt-5.1-codex — best for codex mac & linux - gpt-5.1-codex-mini — 4x more cost-efficient - gpt-5.1 — best for codex on windows

> create AGI, if it still isn’t working, please run things and test the until AGI works.

10 am livestream today to launch a new product I'm quite excited about!

@DanielEdrisian Buy zed, let them build it.

@am29d Not currently, but it's been requested a lot!

Codex CLI 0.44.0 is out! - New TUI refresh - Custom prompt args - Better windows tool handling - (exp) Manage cloud tasks in CLI + more!

@FabianHiller We have an open issue since a while, need to dig deer for standard schema support.

@am29d Feel free to share a link to it here.

Valibot v1.1 introduced a native way to parse and stringify JSON. These new transformation actions automatically catch errors and handle all edge cases, and you can combine them with other schemas and actions for 100% reliable results. 🧩

@renebrandel Only 5?

Half the infra startups would be in trouble if AWS just decided to launch a "Deploy a container" button that is actually easy, fast, and gives you a reachable HTTP endpoint. But don't worry that would involve 5 different orgs.

Zod 4 is now in beta! 💎 7x faster object parsing 💎 20x reduction in tsc instantiations 💎 57% smaller core bundle size 💎 metadata via .meta() 💎 z.toJSONSchema() 💎 z.templateLiteral() 💎 z.stringbool() 💎 z.int32(), z.float32(), etc 💎 z.file() 💎 new logo 😇

You can now use AWS CDK L2 constructs to create your WebSocket API powered by AppSync Events. In the example below, I create the API, create a channel namespace, and grant publish access to a Lambda function. Easy. Try it today with the latest version of CDK.
