Built a communication triage dashboard concept this morning. AI scores every notification: Urgent / Respond / FYI / Noise. Discord + Gmail + GitHub + Linear. Put it on a wall monitor. Glance up. Stop checking. → signal.alanhalley.com

Built a personal wiki this morning using Claude Code + Obsidian. One terminal session. It read my files, found a forgotten tax bill, a security hole, and two people missing from my contacts. Andrej Karpathy posted the pattern yesterday. I tried it today. It works. @karpathy

Your morning routine: open Gmail. Switch to Calendar. Remember a task. Open another tab. Glance puts all three on one page. Two minutes and you're done. glance.alanhalley.com

Built a Google dashboard concept: Gmail + Calendar + YouTube + Tasks + Drive + News — one page, one login. Why six tabs when you don't need them? Waitlist: google.alanhalley.com

How many tabs do you open every morning just to catch up? Built Glance to fix that. Email + calendar + social + YouTube + Substack + news. One page. Your layout. AI filters the noise. → glance.alanhalley.com

@briebriejoy If I were your neighbor, I could cook whatever, whenever for you. Simple things. I do that every day for myself and friends and neighbors. I'm retired in Brazil, stop by anytime. But seriously, perhaps you may have a neighbor that likes to cook?

Soup is great and this isn't a criticism, but as someone with legit executive dysfunction anything that requires more than 3 ingredients or ingredients that can't last a week in the fridge, or meals that require me to chop a bunch of stuff up is a no go. I'm not a mirepoix girlie. Sorry! I also don't want to clean dishes, so sheet pan meals are king. Salmon + salt+ 10 min under the broiler = dinner in 15 min if I open a bag salad while the salmon's cooking. Sweet potatoes can sit on my counter and last forever. Broccoli lasts a really long time. Cabbage-based salads last longer than spinach/romaine/arugula etc. Rice on the shelf. Adobo in the shaker. Onion on the counter. I have this down to a science!

@carlvellotti I find the Terminal quite odious.

Claude Cowork is only in research preview. But if you have FOMO, all its features and many more are already available in Claude Code

I have a theory that this ridiculous video convinced the US to invade Greenland

@asymco Where is West Virginia? How is it relevant to fractional parking space in the USA?

in America, there are eight parking spots for every car, covering up to 30 percent of our cities, and collectively taking up about as much space as the state of West Virginia.

@SingleOccupant @_dmoser @asymco @ITDP_HQ What’s the black vehicle with the wide tires?

@_dmoser @asymco @ITDP_HQ Transitioning to inexpensive unprotected lanes for single-width 🚗 instead of side-seated 🚘 design allows much more width for protected bicycle lanes. #ThinMobility

@InfiniteBlockHQ @CityBits_Max @culdesac Isn’t this another streetcar suburb? Same as 100 years ago, but this time with government trams?

New newsletter just dropped. @CityBits_Max takes a long look at @culdesac's ambitions to build a car-free city from scratch, right in the traffic-clogged heart of the USA🏗️🌆 Is this post-car utopia an oasis or a mirage? (spoiler: we like their odds!) infiniteblock.substack.com/p/culdesac-pos…
