@philchacko @stalman Yeah, most people don’t like tech and are glued to their phones 24/7 and hurry to buy the latest gadgets. Sure. This makes sense. People pretend to not like tech because they think this makes them cool. Take away their phones for a day and see what their real thinking is.

@stalman It's not that they don't like tech, it's that most people don't like tech, and they have to cater to most people since that's where the eyeballs are.

I think I realized why I actually stopped reading The Verge: it feels like they just don’t like tech Life is stressful enough, just let me enjoy it

@sebastienb @stalman 9to5Mac and all their sister sites are excellent. I always read GSMArena whenever I've got time.

Say what you will about @joshuatopolsky, but everything started going downhill when he left. He was the Steve Jobs character in this establishment. He left and things started going south. I wish they all came back in a new @engadget akin to the The Engadget Show times.

YES. @verge used to be cool. No, the coolest. One of the few tech sites that found the balance between technology and culture. Today it’s just hate. Anti-tech, anti-fun, anti-AI, defined by antis. Trying to please left wing Gen Z’s ruined the greatest tech site in history.

Not sure I'm a fan of the recent Claude Code extension for VSCode update. Everything is in weird places.

@kuberdenis @amdkits Oh much better than at 25-27. But that’s very personal, I wasn’t working out as much back then and had more sciatic pain. Now I feel 16 (yay TRT).

Lost 8h of my life trying to setup 1Password only to understand I'm using 1Password 7 and I need 8. But I just went on the Mac App Store and installed 1Password. Why do things have to be hard?

Built an app for Watch OS that allows to track your Claude Code usage limits. Pretty fun and actually useful

@oleg008 Not much but people don’t know how easy it is to use Claude Code/etc. If @claudeai shipped a native “New project” experience that spins an entire app with everything needed, they are cooked.

Honest question: how much moat do platforms like lovable/replit and similar have when you can run agents in vscode at a cost of you llm accounts and deploy apps to cheap vps or cloudflare?

90% of the time it’s true. 10% of the time I’m bashing my head even harder because I realize I don’t understand the codebase this well as I used to pre-LLMs. But overall it’s a great improvement.
Jared Friedman@snowmaker

I realized something else AI has changed about coding: you don't get stuck anymore. Programming used to be punctuated by episodes of extreme frustration, when a tricky bug ground things to a halt. That doesn't happen anymore.

A small thank you to everyone using Claude: We’re doubling usage outside our peak hours for the next two weeks.

@kuberdenis Literally any chat, tell it “Make a skill from this” at the end and it will become a reusable MD file. If it’s something you want to do again, save it as a skill.

Ok apparently i am behind How are claude skills? “Skills oriented” development or whatever? The markdowns.. you know Basically not focusing on code at all, but skills (sounds stupid to me but…) Only people using skills for real (and for a substantial amount of time) respond

Creating the core idea IS designing.
Tim Gabe 👨‍🎨@thetimgabe

founders need to stop wasting money on design. i see this on calls every week. the main problem is that they want design before they have a truly working business. i could be greedy and take them on, because we can improve your retention. redesign your paywall. optimize your onboarding. but if your core idea isn't working, those gains won't pay off. you're polishing a broken machine. get to $10k/month first. consistent users who actually use the app. prove the idea works. then bring in design. that's when design improvements REALLY compound. take one of our current gamification clients who just reached #2 in the US app store last month. day 14 retention up 1.14%. revenue per user up 1.1%. completed offers up 0.86%. they have millions of monthly users. they paid out 12.6m euros last month. those "small" percentages stack FAST. remember: no amount of design will help a bad idea. but once you've proven the idea, design is the multiplier that can make your business a lot of extra money.

Hey @elonmusk, here’s an idea that would make me pay for X in an instant: a filter that allows me to see my algorithmic feed but only posts from people with: - real names - real avatars I swear, it would be amazing. All the good recommendations without all the anime avatar 💩.
