noah

The @OpenAI Codex team is killing it. Such a fun way to use computers. The future is going to be so dope.

People freaking out over my AI spend. What nobody sees: Part of what excites me so much about working on OpenClaw is that I'm trying to answer the question: How would we build software in the future if tokens don't matter? We constant run ~100 codex in the cloud, reviewing every PR, every issue. If a fix on main lands, @clawsweeper will eventually find that 6 month old issue and close it with an exact reference. We run codex on every commit to review for security issues (as it's far too easy to miss). We run codex to de-duplicate issues and find clusters and send reports for the most pressing issues. We have agents that can recreate complex setups, spin up ephemeral crabbox.sh machines, log into e.g. Telegram, make a video and post before/after fix on the PR. There's codex that watch new issues and - if it fits our documented vision well, automatically create a PR of it. (that then another codex reviews) We have codex running that scans comments for spam and blocks people. We have codex instances running that verify performance benchmarks and report regressions into Discord. We have agents that listen on our meetings and proactively start work, e.g. create PRs when we discuss new features while we discuss them. We build clawpatch.ai to split all our projects into functional units to review and find bugs and regresssions. We do the same split for security with Vercel's deepsec and Codex Security to find regressions and vulnerabilities. All that automation allows us to run this project extremely lean.

@shivamhwp @davidgomes @garrytan haha thanks!

@no4core @davidgomes @garrytan 🫡, any bugs occur let me know. cool github username

The year is 2026. Hacker News still does *not* have dark mode. @garrytan please fix!

@shivamhwp @davidgomes @garrytan oh! thanks!

@davidgomes @garrytan or just replace news.ycombinator.com with uhn.vercel.app

oh dang, bars

We are busy bringing ChatGPT to Codex so that we can bring Codex to ChatGPT. One day this will make sense.

@thsottiaux your move

Hot take: Chat is useful for asking questions about money. But it is not a good interface for managing money. Finance is full of structured workflows: budgeting, bill pay, taxes, investing, debt payoff, categorization, approvals, alerts, and planning. For those, you want purpose-built UI. Charts, tables, sliders for scenarios, dashboards, approval flows, etc. Chat works best when intent is fuzzy: “Where did my money go?” or “What should I look at?” But once the job becomes structured, repeated, visual, or high-stakes, UI wins. People are way more likely to use a purpose-built UI that guides them than a chat window for this. Like what @bchesky said about travel, similar thing here.

oh my gawd.

sometimes i get bored and go to a random tech company's website to see how they're pretending to be all about ai now

Took the day off to play Subnautica 2. Just finished. Very good. Can’t wait for the updates 🫡

@jnnnthnn @avec @raycast @brunocbreis if your into software avec is for you, if you not into software then you have to try avec. its as simple as that.

woah! @avec mentioned in the latest @raycast newsletter! thank you @brunocbreis 💙

@jnnnthnn thats a very fair take then.

@no4core all of it

opus 1m context in fast mode is still my favorite coding model

@avec fyi the other software was raycast and bevel.

@avec i wonder who that was 🤷‍♂️ 😉

- "Oh my god" - "There are few apps that ever rival this level of perfection" - "It is truly exceptional" Read Hackomole's and 143 other 5-star reviews at avec.ai/download

@jnnnthnn is it for frontend stuff?

@no4core react native but yes

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