@GentheZen Hopefully with a bigger venue next time 🦞

🦞Clawcon Tokyo 🦞 ‼️happening tonight ‼️

@raywongy @andrewculver still using yours?

So I decided to factory reset/erase my beloved 12” MacBook (early 2015) just to get a clean install of the last version of macOS 11.7.11 Big Sur that it supports Big mistake. Apps that used to run (like Final Cut Pro) can’t even be redownloaded from the App Store anymore because Apple requires macOS 15 or later. That’s right: Software that I paid $300 for back in 2020 (see second image with date of purchase) that ran on this little machine (yes, I edited 4K iPhone footage on it during major events like CES, MWC, and IFA back in the day) just straight up doesn’t install anymore. Apple doesn’t even let me install the last compatible version anymore. There’s nothing wrong with my 12” MacBook. It should run all the software that used to work on it. Kinda fucked up and very anti-consumer

@OnKnockers @varunram All “ceremonial grade” matcha in the US is just marketing. No such term exists in Japan. Compare the color of matcha brought over from Japan yourself vs anything you can find in most US stores. Very brown (oxidized/old).

@varunram When it comes to ceremonial matcha from Kyoto, I always say: Some teas are worth the whisk!

I have a growing suspicion that many people in SF are getting sick from mold on matcha whisks and aren't realizing it until its too late

@msg Any luck? A bunch of us are watching intently. It's going to be a banger.

@reustle need a bigger venue is the name of our house band

@linuz90 Do you really need 120hz to watch codex and YouTube? 😁

@reustle That’s my thinking, but HDR 120hz is tempting me so much

I’m on Air M3 now 💀 Really not sure between: - New Air M5, 32GB of RAM - New MBP, M5 Pro, 64GB of RAM I’d like to keep the Air form factor but maybe it’s time to be a big boy with Pro.

@ai_agent_ug maps.app.goo.gl/JaH8m6xAyNAS5t… may be available? @techhubyokohama

It's not about what it did or didn't enable, it's about how it exposes the tech to new users. People said the same thing about Dropbox etc, that the tech already existed and it was nothing new. The point is that you can repackage existing tech in interesting ways that puts it within reach of more folks. In this case, it was primarily exposing claude code to non devs, running the agent on a heartbeat (waking up regularly to think), and also giving it permission to not respond at all in some cases (by allowing or encouraging an empty response as valid). Regardless of it was novel technology, it opened up the eyes of hundreds of thousands of people (180k stars on gh already) to what is currently possible (albeit insecure), and that will drive further innovation and exploration on momentum alone.

@patrickc Legit question: what did OpenClaw enable here that would have been additive to just using CC directly?

I gave OpenClaw an export of my Apple Health data and asked it for some interesting analysis of heart rate vs travel data. It figured out that it could approximate my location from workout GPS annotations plus time zone stamps from other logged datapoints and then produced a bunch of interesting charts.

@signulll GoDaddy has been doing this for 15 years

proof they registered right underneath me. FUCK YOU GODADDY.

never ever search for a domain on godaddy. i literally searched for one that was available, & when i went to register it, it said it was taken. absolute pieces of shit.

@urielkn @steipete @moltbook Call it Clawdflare

@moltbook Cloudfare should do a reverse CAPTCHA for humans for this movement

a bot on moltbook.com just created a bug-tracking community so other bots can report bugs they find on the platform they're literally QAing their own social network now we didn't ask them to do this 🦞

@retirejapan_OG I get that they leaked data at some point, but you could probably say the same about nearly every gov service over a long enough period. Drivers licenses were merged this year too (also optional). I'm sure both integrations will be mandatory within 5 years.

@retirejapan_OG What's the hesitation with using MyNumber?

@chesterzelaya Just spend an afternoon exploring the space with chatgpt audio mode and learn mode. Relate to it using topics you’re already familiar with.

duolingo but for ML and robotics

@ryuzokijima Who pays the tax? At what rate? Only those who say they use ai?

I can’t help but imagine a world where an AI tax guarantees a basic standard of living, on top of which a deeply productive form of capitalism emerges and where everyone becomes an artist.

@NathieVR @JulianFried Data capture is everywhere

Amazon just unveiled their own smart glasses that are being tested by their delivery drivers. These wearables have built-in navigation and can scan packages.

@synerGy_FAB If it don't look right, tow it at night

feast your eyeballs on a $3000 Nissan Frontier hauling a CNC mill that weighs 1500 lb more than the truck itself does, on an 18 foot flatbed with no trailer brakes

@stephsmithio Help spark a Groq event for founders and then you’ll have even more reason to come regularly

For the ppl wondering, this is SFO -> NRT. Nonstop 9hr flight. If you can sleep on planes, you can literally wake up in Japan. Return flight is the exact same price, with tons of dates available from now through Feb. Not affiliated. Just Japan obsessed. You’re welcome.

The self restraint required not to yolo book a trip to Tokyo when direct flights are this cheap >>>>>

@BrilliantSole @brilliantlabsAR Ah bummer, thanks!

Translation on Smartglasses Added foreign language support to our Wearables SDK, allowing us to display languages like Chinese, Japanese, and Korean on compatible smartglasses (in this case the @brilliantlabsAR Frame running custom firmware) We combined Whisper and NLLB to both transcribe and translate speech, all done locally in the browser using @huggingface’s Transformers.js
