@tony_carnev An excel formula is code.
That’s execution layer too and changes the capabilities.

@NickADobos The real distinction isn’t “customization vs restriction” it’s whether the app’s capabilities are fixed at review time.
Spreadsheets = flexible inputs.
Rork = execution layer.
HUGE difference. I’m not saying Apple is right here but these are their rules.

@chatgpt21 Just make a ChatGPT app (aka MCP UI) with a 3d renderer.

Book + auto-research
Looping self improvement with the goal of making artistic, engaging & emotionally interesting media is a fascinating thing for a computer to do. Much weirder than optimizing a KPI, but if it works it will change art, humanity & computers forever.

Hermes Agent wrote a novel. "The Second Son of the House of Bells" runs 79,456 words across 19 chapters. The agent built its own pipeline to do it, using the ame modify-evaluate-keep/discard loop as @karpathy's Autoresearch but applied to fiction: world-building, chapter drafting, adversarial editing, Opus review loops, LaTeX typesetting, cover art, audiobook generation, and landing page setup.

They are slowly releasing every OpenClaw primitive

We just released Claude Code channels, which allows you to control your Claude Code session through select MCPs, starting with Telegram and Discord. Use this to message Claude Code directly from your phone.

Apple needs to bring back Steve Wozniak to fix these idiotic missteps. It’s not only a terrible move against developers, it’s a move against kids learning to make apps and therefore a move against the future of Apple’s own platform.

Apple has quietly halted App Store updates for popular AI "vibe-coding" applications most notably the $9 billion startup Replit and mobile app builder Vibecode. After months of pushback, Apple is reportedly demanding major UX changes. Replit is being asked to force its generated app previews to open in an external web browser rather than natively inside its app. Vibecode was told it must completely remove the ability to generate software specifically for Apple devices.

@tony_carnev No.
The rule was to prevent developers from changing apps.
Not to prevent users from customizing apps & using dev tools.
This is like if they banned spreadsheets & spreadsheet apps because you could write a formula that changed how the spreadsheet worked...
English
In fairness this has been a rule of theirs since the way beginning. The technology to exploit it to this level didn’t exist until recently. Whether it needs changing or not is fair but you can essentially jailbreak an iPhone with these apps and how quickly someone can make one now

There’s a massive difference between vibe coding and engineering with agents

Cursor is now the codex app. Neat.

Hilarious concept for a video

I spoke to Anthropic’s AI agent Claude about AI collecting massive amounts of personal data and how that information is being used to violate our privacy rights. What an AI agent says about the dangers of AI is shocking and should wake us up.

anthropic should add a simple feature to sync skills between claude chat, claude cowork and claude code and between teams
i see how much people are struggling with this

@a__tomala Adventure vacation.
What about something like skiing? Thrilling speeds but also chill resort.
English
People keep suggesting I should take a vacation, but idk how to take a vacation because I really really need stress to function correctly. Is there someway to have a stressful but relaxing vacation at the same time???

@Dimillian Wait is this monitoring a full symphony run!?!?
Or are you using symphony to build the monitor for a more standard codex chat?
English
@kinglycrow Love this. Super cool.
Do you find it easier to review with these boxes/nodes? Seems like it would be useful for architecture and organization but maybe harder to review details like actual lines? (But maybe the existing tools already cover that.)
English
lately i've been pretty interested in tools that help me digest and understand large amounts of changes from agents so i built a little thing 🧵

Drawing and 3d modeling(specifically texturing)
Have you ever stared at a wall to observe its texture before? Or looked at carpet and noticed how your brain tiles it instead of actually seeing all of it?
You don’t grasp how bad your brain is at actually seeing & visualizing things until you dive into reconstructing it
Unfortunately does not generalize to other domains much.
English
What's the biggest thing you've done to increase your attention to detail?
English
@techguyver Seems possible, but I don't think any of the dev tools want to start a legal battle here.
1. they dont have the war chest for it.
2. It will take 2-3 years, time which would be better spent focusing on building.
English
to clean up the confusion
it's not to user-generated apps that are getting blocked for updates
its apps that create the user-generated apps that are getting blocked

Midjourney's create flow is exactly what you described.
1. Send an initial prompt, use a med-high chaos value to start. Do that like 4 times to get 16 options.
2. Pick your favorites. Take those and run variations, or use remix if you want to change the prompt or provide guidance. Reduce chaos as you narrow your idea down.
3. repeat
Unfortunately midjourney is not as quite as steerable or as good at image editing tasks as chatGPT image gen, or nano banana 2. But Midjourney's UX flow and ability to hunt through and find your best image is SO SO much better.
English
What’s the best framework for visual prompt evolution? I want to give a general direction (“new logo for project X, see brief”) and have something generate 16 options, I pick 1-5 favorites w optimal commentary, it reflects and evolves and tries again, rinse and repeat.
