video editors stink… 🤮 and i’m going to fix it editors spend AGES… - cutting clips - moving key frames - color grading but it shouldn’t have to be this way… i’ll build the cursor of video editors … and all you have to do is watch 👀 waitlist👇

i have a strong inkling that major companies are accelerating with ai generated features but at the cost of accumulating a TERMENDOUS amount of technical debt ... and the only ones that are slowing it down are the OG devs that are filtering out the "bad" code from getting to prod anyone think the same? or is ai code top tier now...

codex has been my go-to application for ai assisted coding for the past year I've been able to accelerate my learning and build super fast... but at the end of the day, my eng intuition is what is still carrying me to build properly the balance of speed vs quality

quoting @ColinandSamir ... we are in an abundance era of creators

@Dimillian thats a crazy idea - sprint planning for agents and they just tell you -> "no update" lol

We went from sprint planning to no sprint planning and push to main back to sprint planning for agents.

not sure this is true slop comes from whether meaning/resonance was derived from a piece of content humans are starting to overindex on their human side in their content ofc you can churn out videos that feed the algo... but the ones that stand out are uniquely different and make you FEEL something

you shouldn’t add ai until you have a base level system that being said… design your system with the low primitives to accommodate for ai to streamline

@nayshins depends on the model, i got so many from codex doing poor ui

Has anyone documented all the code slop patterns yet? I want to lint for them and banish them to hades.

are we finally gunna get yc shilling codex

@alvinsng @FactoryAI this post went VIRAL - learned a lot from this article and adopting the practice as we speak. thanks man

24 hours ago, I posted this article about @FactoryAI's take on React's useEffect which has surpassed 1.7M views and is still growing. This caught the attention of numerous execs, startup founders, and even the React core team. It has sparked a conversation about a paradigm shift in how we design software for the agentic era. Traditionally, software frameworks were designed for humans who spent time mastering fundamentals before writing their first line of code. Today, that is no longer the case. At Factory, all of our "backend engineers" ship frontend code. Any engineer should be able to prompt agents to tweak features "out of the box" with built-in guardrails. We learned the hard way that when agents write nearly all the code, useEffect often becomes the culprit behind systemic frontend bugs. We only encountered these issues because we are constantly pushing the boundaries of agentic software development. Fixing the process is more important than fixing the (direct) problem. On a note regarding marketing strategy: traditional, polished product announcements from PR teams don't work anymore. Sharing raw, authentic, "on the ground" stories about the interesting problems teams are solving is far more engaging.

ai models 1v1 pokemon battles (pokebench) some new updates: - added poke stats - added moves with typing and pp - more support for openai models - added some move effects, dmg effects - added +/- stat above sprites + status super fun seeing this come together ideally we can get models to simulate a bunch of battles to see which one is the best POKEMON MASTER

@guinnesschen @ajambrosino this is cool but i want codex for mobile plz

You can now summon Codex from anywhere on your desktop. It's easier than ever to reach for Codex.

both tbh

yeah you built it

@justbyte_ it’s painful to not even get 1 like LOL

I appreciate people who keep tweeting even with 1 like

been trying my hardest to use codex sub agents intentionally the best scenario has been for context gathering

senior eng is the new junior eng... its never been easier to jump into tech but with the temptation of letting ai do everything... we forget that ai is the tool to learn, upskill and understand DEEPER so how do we go from student to entry lvl dev to sen. dev and beyond? its the same as its always been ... time under pressure ... experience ... facing challenging problems ... sitting there and giving it a crack first (with your own brain lol) not saying you shouldn't use ai btw use ai to be hella productive you are the conductor of ai not the other way around

@dillon_mulroy whats the tab model?

i think i’m back to wanting a really good tab model - any progress here outside of cursor (i don’t have access to supermaven) and for nvim?

@kr0der xD

oh my god i found a fix for this, it actually worked npm i -g @openai/codex

@Joshua_Tiernan what kind of newsletters you run?

I'm looking to hire somebody who can help me curate a couple of newsletters I run. This would be ideal as a side-project for somebody junior with a good eye for quality who understands the startup space well. Need to be good with Claude. ~ 8 hours per month ~ $200/month DM me

PokeBench update - added sprite animation when switching pokemon - added slight damage jiggle - status conditions PSN - better thinking traces in chat having fun just seeing the models duke it out haha
