idk how to explain this but openclaw is for the same people who use notion

@FUCORY how has your experience been w/ effect.ts? been going back and forth on bringing into our codebase (i see the appeal/value)

In the next version of Smithers We fix 4 corner case bugs with workflows not being durable/restartable We internally migrated to Effect.ts with biggest improvement being much better observability with log levels

Today we are learning something: No one in DeFi knows the difference between slippage and price impact.

The world’s attention market is now live on Solana.

@BrianInCrypto @tobi weaponized adhd, infinite agents, but slack is the final boss 😭

@tobi @johnjohnson

Being "creative, but easily distractible" is no longer a disadvantage with infinite agents on your screen

the best mech designers i know are not submitting to the paradigm honeypot -- lesson in there

@FrankieIsLost it’s been better for quite some time

incredible aura gain from codex over the past three weeks

@confetti_win finally changed the name

i am in awe of the absolute braindead linkedin sloppening that is taking place on the tl rn

@ryxcommar Texting clawdbot to wiggle the mouse for me so the teams icon doesn't stay yellow (don't make any mistakes) just to feel something

@BrianInCrypto gonna be a rough year for any competitors lol

Do not underestimate @johnjohnson.

@alpeh_v I was banned within a few hours last month, ymmv

Does Hertzer still ban crypto applications tangentially related to crypto mining like nodes/rpcs? It seems like the cheapest option and I would like to run a node there

@iamtexture When living in SF I had a walking 1:1 policy w my team(s) (never take a 1:1 sitting), one of the things I miss most tbh

The Bay Area is the best place in the country for walks. It's why the tech industry flourishes there. You can be dealing with the most stressful problem, go for a walk, and feel brand new.

.@BrianInCrypto I’m back from vacation

@pirosb3 @farcaster_xyz @lindaxie Ayo you’re a dad? (New dad here)

Today's my last day at @farcaster_xyz ⚡️ Honored to have worked with such a sharp, mission-driven team. Learned a ton from Varun and Dan on execution and momentum - lessons I'll carry with me if I ever start something or step into a leadership role Still remember when @lindaxie and I got the DM to join Farcaster. It was the biggest "Hell Yes!" ever. Bountycaster was one of the first mini apps (aka frames) in the ecosystem - we had already collaborated with them and felt a strong alignment in values. Taking some time off next and being a stay-at-home dad (for the next few weeks!)

@CoinbaseMarkets Listing team on generational run

@AriannaSimpson Congrats! Epic run

Some news! After 6 incredible years, I’m going to be transitioning out of a16z. I’m starting a fund of my own to do what I love most, which is investing in great founders as early as I can find them, with a broader aperture across the many verticals where great companies are being built today. I learned a huge amount during my time at a16z. @cdixon is widely known as a legendary investor and having the opportunity to work closely with him for the past 6 years has been an honor. I am extremely grateful for his mentorship, the opportunities he gave me here, and for the capital and responsibilities he entrusted me with. His frameworks will shape how I think about investments for the rest of my career. When I joined, the crypto vertical was 7 people (it’s now north of 80), and the firm, while already successful, was nowhere near the scale or scope it has today. At the time I thought the firm’s moves to dominate the industry had mostly unfolded, but I underestimated how much the lead could widen in a few short years. @bhorowitz and @pmarca have built an institution, and I am glad to have had the chance to play a small role on the team. I’m sure I’ll be looking back 6 years from now and see the firm in a position  that’s  hard to even imagine from today’s vantage point. Most of the best people I’ve worked with in my career to date have been at a16z – there are too many to name. I’m very grateful to have worked with so many incredible folks here, and I know that I am leaving the crypto team and the investing practice in extremely capable hands with @cdixon, @alive_eth, and @guywuolletjr. I’m also really going to miss working with @jasonrothenal and @eddylazzarin every day in Menlo Park — I’ve learned so much from both of them. I’m very proud of the work I did here, and most importantly, of the founders I had the privilege of working with. They are the reason why I love being an investor. Sometimes it takes dozens of meetings, but every time you find a star, it makes you fall in love with the job all over again. a16z’s passion for and commitment to founders and their companies is what made me love this job in particular. I’m excited to keep doing that in my next chapter — and if you’re building, I’d love to meet!

@tszzl Bad analogy if you study history! OpenAI is third here?

second and third place should never be infighting but instead ganging up against first, Machiavelli speaks of this

@tracy_codes it be like that

lord forgive me for i have vibed

If you're not using voice transcription as the primary way to chat to coding agents, you really should. I wildly underestimated how much more productive (and enjoyable) it would be compared to typing.
