@neshazo @superplanehq @digitalocean awesome, thanks for trying it out!

@markoa @superplanehq @digitalocean Just tested. It’s working. 2 min setup. For the self-hosted version, someone needs to SSH into the server to enter the domain name.

You can now self-host @superplanehq in one click. Big thanks to @digitalocean for working with us on this important milestone!

@karpathy looking forward. too bad third body problem was done by netflix

Had to go see Project Hail Mary right away (it's based on the book of Andy Weir, of also The Martian fame). Both very pleased and relieved to say that 1) the movie sticks very close to the book in both content and tone and 2) is really well executed. The book is one of my favorites when it comes to alien portrayals because a lot of thought was clearly given to the scientific details of an alternate biochemistry, evolutionary history, sensorium, psychology, language, tech tree, etc. It's different enough that it is highly creative and plausible, but also similar enough that you get a compelling story and one of the best bromances in fiction. Not to mention the other (single-cellular) aliens. I can count fictional portrayals of aliens of this depth on one hand. A lot of these aspects are briefly featured - if you read the book you'll spot them but if you haven't, the movie can't spend the time to do them justice. I'll say that the movie inches a little too much into the superhero movie tropes with the pacing, the quips, the Bathos and such for my taste, and we get a little bit less the grand of Interstellar and a little bit less of the science of The Martian, but I think it's ok considering the tone of the original content. And it does really well where it counts - on Rocky and the bromance. Thank you to the film crew for the gem!

The hardware's going to be a bottleneck until the end of the decade. Token efficiency is about to become one of the most important metrics when you're building agents and doing inference.

Model providers will keep dropping shiny new toys built on top, but I still find myself going back to @cursor_ai to pull in ideas and input from a bunch of different models. Low-key getting a lot of product work done with Gemini 3.1 today.

surprisingly small number of hands go up when asked who has run an openclaw agent themselves at a meetup in SF we are still early

@hnshah doing something with @superplanehq so you can go to bed on time

I was up until 2am doing DevOps last week, on multiple days. I haven't done any work that resembles DevOps in 20 years, and I can't give you a clean explanation for why I couldn't stop. Earlier that day, something had shifted. I'd been setting up software on my machine and managing configurations I'd normally hand off to someone else. It took longer than expected, and there were moments where I was certain it wasn't going to work. When it finally clicked, I felt something register in a way that reading about it never does. The capabilities of my computer had become just a prompt away. I was building something real, moving faster than I normally move while solving problems I'd have needed help with a year ago. That feeling, the feeling of being capable in ways you weren't before, is what kept me up doing infrastructure work I'd happily avoided for two decades. That's what I want to talk about. We're in a moment where creation has been democratized in a way that's genuinely new. Not the idea of it, but the actual reality of it landing. Building software used to require understanding software. Design required years of training. Creating almost anything at scale required either rare skill or access to people who had it. Capability was the bottleneck, and it was a real one. The gap between idea and execution was wide enough that only the most capable or most patient ever closed it. That bottleneck is dissolving. Today, one person with enough imagination and curiosity can build what would have required a team just a few years ago. The gap between idea and execution has narrowed in a way that most people haven't fully processed yet. When I was up at 2am, I wasn't thinking about any of this. I was just building. But the next morning, I started asking a different question. When creation is this easy, where does the bottleneck live? The bottleneck moved. When technical capability was the gate, ideas got filtered by default. Not every idea got built because not everyone could build. The selection process was imperfect, missing ideas that deserved to exist while letting through plenty that didn't, but there was a process. The friction of building was doing work on its own. That gate is opening now, wider than it's ever been. The question that used to be answered by capability, the question of what actually gets made, now has to be answered by something else. That something else is judgment. The ability to decide what should exist, who it's for, what problem it actually solves, and whether it needs to be in the world at all. When the bottleneck was capability, you could be a mediocre thinker and still make something significant, because making things was genuinely hard. The difficulty filtered for you. When the bottleneck is judgment, that cover is gone. What you create matters more than it ever has, precisely because creating stopped being what separates you from everyone else. I've been running experiments inside a project I haven’t announced yet. It's an AI lab where I build work things I want to see exist. Some are working well while others are still finding their footing. What I've noticed is that the experiments that feel most alive are the ones where I had a clear conviction about what I was building and why before I started. The ones that feel hollow are the ones I started because I could, not because I had a strong sense of what I was building toward. AI will do whatever you ask. That's what makes it powerful. It's also what makes it easy to spend a lot of time building things that probably shouldn't exist. The founders who will make the most of this moment don’t need to be the most technically proficient. They're the ones who can answer, with more clarity than anyone around them, what they're building and why. The ones who've done the hard thinking before the prompting starts. There's a version of this shift that looks like pure opportunity. And it is. But it arrives with a specific kind of pressure that's easy to miss. When everyone can build, what you build becomes the differentiator in a way it never had to be before. When everyone can design, taste becomes the advantage over skill. When creation stops being the hard part, the question of what to create and whether it's worth creating moves to the front of the line. I was up until 2am doing infrastructure work I hadn't touched in decades because something had shifted in my ability to create, and that shift made it impossible to stop. The breakthroughs I was having felt real, and they were. The more important breakthroughs, though, go beyond the ability to create. You have to decide what to create, stay honest about whether it should exist, and then build it with that clarity intact. Creating got easier. The harder question, the one that matters now more than it ever has, is what to create.

Thanks superplane team @markoa @darkofabijan for hosting the "Agents doing ops" event. Great to meet you in person. I was looking for a platform like this and excited to see where superplane goes next. 🚀

Incredible night, big thanks to everyone who showed up!

SF is literally the city of AI rn

gm from PyAI conference

The best outfit at Compute conference award goes to …

The international orange crew is ready for the mission 🫡

@ivanburazin it’s fine to filter our the tourists

I've never seen this before in my career: 28-30 year olds who refuse to use AI coding tools. You show them what they can do augmented (not replaced) with AI and you see in their eyes that they have no damn clue of what's happening. You can't work with these people anymore. Time used to pass over older generations slowly. Now it's passing over us at the peak of our careers. Sadly, adaptability isn't optional at this point.

Grab a spot: luma.com/f64jeseu

SF friends! We're hosting a community event about agents doing ops. Would love to see you there! (register on Luma below)

For a town square app X knows surprisingly little about irl events acquiring Luma will look obvious in retrospect @nikitabier

5.4 sooner than you Think.

Big week ahead! I'll be with @darkofabijan and @filip_101 showcasing @superplanehq at the @daytonaio Compute conference in San Francisco. Excited to chat with fellow builders about agents and the future of ops. March 8-9, see you there!
