100% in software dev. The more you know, the harder it is to start.

Drag and drop file sharing on TailScale is a nice quality of life improvement.

I forgot my headphones for my cardio session, so I figured the next best thing I could do: update the OpenClaw remotely. Unfortunately, something went wrong with the restart, but thankfully with @usemonologue and @almonk’s echos, we are back.

@petersuhm I am convinced everyone gives up too early. Everyone is scared to be the person who chases the wrong thing for too long, so they never give anything a chance actually to grow.

A few reflections on what I've been up to with OG Kit, both on the product and business side. I even share what my MRR is 🍿 petersuhm.com/posts/ogkit/

On one hand, I really miss the @adamwathan podcast, on the other, I really want to see ui.sh ship. Maybe a quick walk with some details? It will be good for your health. 😁

@IanLandsman if you wanted to explore copy-on-write I built something - stooges.dev My guess is it will be too drastic for your taste, but it shows what is possible.

What a time to be alive.

My next AI & Me post will be all about Pi.dev. If you primarily interact with coding agents via a CLI, do yourself a favor on 🥧 day and give @badlogicgames pi a test drive. You won’t be sorry (and you likely won’t go back)

@mitsuhiko One of the things I am planning on enabling with my move to pi from codex is hooks that call linting and execute some tests before allowing the agent to move on (or at least tell me it is done).

I feel like I need to start fighting this shit with more linters. They are just not listening.

Most people don’t know their options, and “big CLI” has started pushing worktrees because having your AI manage is another box on feature bingo. until they get confused and you get stuck. I have been working on a simpler alternative that uses the built-in copy-on-write stooges.dev

Why do people like git worktrees over discrete checkouts? (This isn't bait, it's research)

Ice Cubes seems dead. Bartender is flaky. What else do we have to manage the onslaught of menu bar icons?

The AI tools update daily. Time to automate.

I use this every time I publish a new site or write a blog post, just to be sure the og images are correct - ogvalidator.com

Why call it Stooges? I’ve been working on a few projects lately where the seeded users start with Larry, Curly, and Moe. This started as a bunch of bash scripts. At first, it just created three default workspaces: Larry, Curly, and Moe. I hadn’t planned on turning it into an actual tool until I tried to explain how to set up and use those scripts. From there, the name fell into place. Plus, the .dev domain was available. 😄

The website is a bit over the top, but why use LLMs if you don't want to push some boundaries: stooges.dev

If you ❤️ worktrees, this is probably not for you. But if you want multiple instances of your code that are easy to manage as additional directories, this might be a good option.

I built an alternative to git worktrees called Stooges. Stooges uses copy-on-write to efficiently maintain multiple copies of your application, and includes helpful commands to track and manage everything.

OpenUsage is a great way to visualize your LLM coding limits. openusage.ai

One quick question for Shelly and we have: ssh exe.dev cp my-base new-instance Now new instances are just seconds away.

Every time I needed a new VM, I’d quickly add @ssh_exe_dev and run my chezmoi install. A new VM, fully configured for development in under 5 minutes. Then it hit me: why not see if there’s a way to make this my base?
