@cra Also moved a lot of my GitHub Pages to CloudFlare workers and the integration with custom subdomains is excellent

The base reasoning behind the exploratory work I’ve done with Aileron and shareable, portable, skills. Reproducible where appropriate and auditable always

Not everything is for inference

[Josh Rosen @JoshARosen]

I predict the teams that best solve the deterministic / non-deterministic boundary will beat the teams throwing 100% of their work at models and agents.

Just because a transformer can:
- plan
- choose tools
- decide what to do next
- keep reasoning
- format outputs
- route between actions

doesn’t mean you should ask it to do all those things every time.

Much of that work may be better expressed as deterministic code for your use case.

@csuwildcat @itsLIRAN ✅ and all my best to your family, D.

@nachunja @TIDAL And, on its merits, the most high quality streaming service on the market.

Got fitted for IEMs and the audiologist team runs Tidal exclusively.

Never underestimate the amount of access and privacy we’re willing to give up for convenience.

Agentic Commerce is an inevitability.

Damn good on Stripe for the partnerships, but the future has got to rest on interop and open protocols

[David Pawlan @DavidPawlan]

Stripe locked in Instinct

Stripe locked in Grok Bot

Do you now believe that agentic commerce is here?

[ALR @ALRubinger]

@sudo_moot For many people, AI makes the “good enough” thing that ignores the joy of making and using great things.

@blackgirlbytes Congratulations to you and the fam! 🤘🏻

@dansemperepico I thought the main benefit here was muscle recovery? Have you noticed any difference in time to recover between sets yet?

Corollary: Companies locking their data behind their own web apps with no APIs are going to be disrupted by challengers.

The special fancy data is the moat until your UX is so poor it invites others to jump in with the alligators

[Rhys @RhysSullivan]

companies building their own agent rather than exposing an mcp / cli for their uses is like if you had to download a separate browser for every website you use

@katelyn_lesse @thdxr @dsp_ You had me at “stateless” 💥
