Last sprint I was significantly more productive than the rest of my team combined. That includes ambiguous/undefined work, half-baked storiees, etc. The trend holds true over the long term. Most productive last quarter…and the quarter before that, and the quarter before that. I have the stats to prove it. I’m not smarter than anyone. I just invested some time in improving my process. And there’s SO much more I could do. I have tons of ideas. I also recently finished building a social media app with a bunch of juicy features. The whole package. Details to come soon. I volunteer for more work but…it’s a bit complicated. It’s mostly organizational / politics bottlenecks. I’d like to be more involved on the product side - ironically that’s where I feel like I can have the biggest impact. Below is a video of 4 agents running in parallel. 2 of those agents are working on improvements not even defined in our sprint. Someone come unleash me.

@nummanali Even with memories turned off it still saves stuff. How they determine where that line is drawn I don’t know. You can test this out yourself. It knows about other threads.

Tempted to turn on Codex memories For those that have tried it for >2 weeks, have you seen improved behaviour and recall from Codex? And how has the token spend looked after turning it on, did you feel much difference in usage?

i’ve noticed a big difference in japan vs US media culture via anime vs american TV shows: - animes are mostly very pro-japan. japan is always presented in a positive light - animes almost always have societally positive messages like power of friendship, dangerous dystopias, hero’s journey - the story lines are incredibly creative and unique in comparison american tv shows: - overly sexual - shoving DEI down our throats - a lot of “shitting on america” themes - spamming the same template over and over again for views so it’s boring i hope US media can take some learnings and start actually loving ourselves and be creative and positive

@varadh @nummanali @int32max @linear 1. no api for like years until MCP forced Notion to build one. 2. Having a 1 way data flow is a trap. It’s exploitation on a timer. 3. It’s 2026 and we’re just now getting agentic access to the platforms, not because innovation, but because of threat. Timing habibi

@int32max Chrome Remote Desktop. It’s built in. Still may need it if you need to access the desktop visually.

Finally don't have to look at tiny text in termux with ssh

@trpfsu Love this !

I’ve wanted this kind of navigation animation in react native for a long time. It always felt almost impossible to get right, but it’s finally starting to feel close. This animation is .navigation.reveal() in react-native-screen-transitions. Here’s a side by side comparison.

@davidlinclark @thdxr I thought it was hilarious, let’s be honest 99% of everyone in this corner of X is single 😂

@hussein_builder @thdxr yeah i'm filling in what my brain freudianly frontfilled after reading the first 5 words of the tweet. just projecting, if i'm honest

i'll spend months flirting with a concept and the finally understanding it then it'll be a few more months until i master it enough to articulate it to others and when i do i get the reply "you're just realizing this?"

@davidlinclark @thdxr his name is literally dicks but in a passive tone.

how much automation is too much automation?

@hussein_builder @nummanali @int32max @linear What makes you feel this way?

I did not expect Notion to open its platform to external agents On top of that they’ve introduced a headless CLI Time to reconsider it as your companies product context engine

I hate to say it – but Notion trying to be the "everything app" is giving me late 2010s decline of Evernote vibes...

Question. Is there a single product manager at Anthropic who isn’t an idiot?

BRB will not leave seat for until Sunday evening.

@shikhr_ yup.

dear algorithm, show this tweet to people who use Codex.

im not an honest person i squash my commits

@nicdunz yeah its buggy. im using it on my samsung tablet and its already lost a thread. but im sure they'll patch it quickly. im about to leave the house and have my first experience with it on mobile only.

codex in chatgpt is honestly unusable. it is so buggy and broken

Worth it, right? 😬

Does Codex not support showing photos?

I’m running out of storage on my MacBook - I need to buy an external ssd now. They’re so expensive! Damn you, worktrees!
