@erawrlyne @VictorTaelin Dave is gonna have a real bad time one day

@VictorTaelin agents will do whatever. I've got hooks that prevent it from using rm on files, so it instead just decided to use git rm. their task superecedes whatever else may be in the way. always.

"Just update your AGENTS.md" 🫠

@Timb03 lots and lots and lots of planning

What happens when tech debt from AI written code becomes too much? Or does it just not matter? Does it refactor entire repos and databases? With Pallyy, over the years the debt built up so much that even AI can't untangle it. I'm using AI to help with this of course, but it couldn't do it on it's own. So what happens when the code that AI has written becomes too messy, and you are not a software engineer - how do you get out of that?

@NickADobos @rileybrown The agent needs to be able to open and close tabs on it's own. I want to tag a working group in the chat and say "close any Issue page that has already been solved by @ Pull request page #999"

@gsmmtt @rileybrown Say more?

Tbh codex is a super app when the in app browser is a full browser. This will actually be game over. This should be #1 priority. The only time I leave the app is to go to chrome. (Like to post this)

@NickADobos @rileybrown Mermaid support, more complex charting built-in

@NickADobos @rileybrown The new automatic tabs cleanup feature that just launched is great but it needs a step-up, I want automatic tabs grouping, related tabs that have been sitting on the workspace separately for a while should get grouped

@NickADobos @rileybrown The same way Codex can trigger skills on its own, I need Dia to be able to trigger the skills I have set up in ANY ocasion. I want a skill to trigger the moment I open a youtube(dot)com page, or when I open a github(dot)com pull request, proactively

@NickADobos @rileybrown I have 100 suggestions to make it better though

@NickADobos @rileybrown It already is for me

@bengold I agree, but also: github.com/rortan134/skil…

I truly don’t understand how anyone using AI for real work can think that we are anywhere close to AGI or that AI is an immediate threat to all tech jobs. Claude, Gemini, and ChatGPT are still so fucking stupid most of the time.

@connorhpbrn its missing confetti 🎊

New feedback button.

a developer is only as good as the quality of his resources registry.directory

@sarlalian @islamgshehata @leerob How do you deal with false positives? People that were qualified for a role but due to some nuance got passed?

@islamgshehata @leerob We try really hard to give every resume a good amount of time, but the avalanche of slop is oppressive.

How to make your engineering job application stand out (from the perspective of someone looking at hundreds of resumes): 1. Your resume should be one page. If you really need more space, link to a website. You don't need 10+ bullets for each job. 2. You will immediately stand out >90% of applications if you link a personal website that has some intentionality behind it. 3. If you are going to link your X, you might want to clean up your posts? Seems obvious but... people post some wild stuff. 4. You should link your GitHub. Please avoid doing a profile README that looks like a MySpace profile with the badges and images. I'm trying to look at code and your ability to build interesting ideas. 5. You should try to customize your application to the company. If you're applying to a startup, the courses you took in college probably don't matter as much. Maybe more if you're trying to make it through the ATS screening for FAANG. 6. I'm seeing a surprising number of resumes which don't talk about AI or agents at all. Software engineering is changing and it's a pretty fair assumption that you will be expected to learn or understand coding with AI for your job. That should be reflected on your resume and projects (and I'm not just saying this because I'm at Cursor). 7. Take your LinkedIn seriously. Most devs are here hanging out on X but surprisingly still most people will send around your LinkedIn internally. 8. Find ways to show your unique strengths/tastes/interests. It's nice to see people are smart, well-rounded, and thoughtful. Maybe this is a collection of books you enjoyed and why. Or some writing you've done. Or films you liked. At the end of the day, people want to work with other people they like and respect. If nothing else, it will be a good conversation starter ("oh I love [book] as well!"). 9. Do not use AI to write your cover letter or resume text. It's incredibly obvious, especially if you are applying to an AI company. You can still use it to ideate on ideas or phrases, but write it by hand (don't fall victim to the overused in-the-distribution-AI-phrases). See: /humanizer skill. 10. No photos on resumes. Save those for whatever you link out to. 11. Quality over quantity. 3 really good, thoughtful, detailed, interesting projects versus a wall of 27 AI-slop ones. Remember that hiring managers / recruiters are getting hundreds or thousands of applications for a role. They're not going to spend 20 minutes on every single application. You need to cut the cruft and get to the point. I hope this helps you stand out!

@pengzheng_ really good

title scrolls up → becomes the title bar. hover → becomes back-to-top. same pixel, three states.

@eglyman @pontusab @viktorhofte I still look up to their first viral web pitch deck to this day

two years ago i started screenshotting @pontusab and @viktorhofte's work. two designers in stockholm. 14k github stars. no marketing team. midday looked cleaner than every finance tool i'd ever seen. their obsession: let builders to run their company, not the admin. agents are finally getting good enough to make that real. they're joining ramp to build it. more soon.

I thought they had deprecated this property

Quite hilarious how chatgpt(dot)com tries guessing all the ways people type it wrong and uses each one as a keyword

@catalinmpit We're calling this progress nowadays, the abstractions evolve, and so do the problems

Discuss

@joelbqz @aidenybai go all in on component composition and these solve themselves

just added react-scan gift from the 🐐 @aidenybai to writer.computer on dev mode, i need to work those re-renders 😜

@thebeautyofsaas winners over the next decade are going to do what it takes

winners over the next decade are going to be schizo, tech individuals who know how to navigate machines and get the work done as soon as possible. at the same time, understanding what it means to be human. talk to people, hold eye contact, read the room, and think for themselves
