1. Allow new threads inside a worktree with fresh context. I want to be able to run a skill or code review with fresh context, but within the worktree that has the changes for the feature I'm building.
2. Let me pay you to host a cloud devbox for me to use with Codex, so I don't have to trust a third party or buy a Mac mini.

@linuz90 It’s different than opting into the“New worktree” option at the bottom of the text box that you type your prompt into when you start a new thread

[Adam Long @Adam_B_Long]

@linuz90 Yep, that’s what the “permanent worktree” feature does. The challenge is that you have to remember to do it from the start.

Their permanent worktree feature adds it to the left sidebar, so you can add multiple threads inside that worktree just like you would a project folder.

The background audio is more interesting. They’re struggling with Bluetooth connectivity after earlier struggling with Outlook.

NASA astronaut and Artemis II pilot Victor Glover was spotted using the flywheel to exercise onboard the Orion capsule, as the crew continues its journey toward the moon.

@thsottiaux The Codex App’s work trees are great, but I need to be able to clear the context and start a new thread without losing the worktree. The permanent worktree workaround is far too clunky.

[thorny (ithinkiplaygames.bsky.social) @thinkiamsad]

proudly announcing your elaborate, pointless vandalization of the commons is fucking reprehensible. like telling everyone how you've been shitting in the public reservoir for months and expecting cheers

[Adam Long @Adam_B_Long]

@embirico Can you add support for running a setup script for the worktrees within the same repo? For example, my current terminal script will change .env.local to specify unique ports for each worktree to use when running the web app. That way, I can manually test them without conflicts.

don't talk to my boy Claude like that

The only white, powdery stuff that should be on your car this weekend is snow.

Not crack.

"Since you mentioned looking out for neighbors, this is critical during "Travel Impossible" conditions:"

the weather man is using chatgpt for safety advice without even reading it

[Brad Panovich @wxbrad]

Here is a prioritized checklist to help you, your family, and your neighbors prepare before the storm hits Saturday evening.

1. Immediate "Power Outage" Prep (Do This Now)
With 0.50"+ of ice, power lines and poles will likely snap. Prepare to be without electricity for 72+ hours.

Crank the Heat: Turn your thermostat up immediately to pre-heat your home while you still have power. The warmer the house is when the power dies, the longer it takes to cool down.

The "Icebox" Strategy:

Turn your refrigerator and freezer to their coldest settings now.

Fill the empty space in the freezer with frozen jugs of water. A full freezer stays cold longer (up to 48 hours if unopened).

Charge Everything: Phones, laptops, tablets, power banks, and rechargeable flashlights.

Cash on Hand: Credit card machines rely on power and the internet. Have cash for emergency supplies if stores open.

2. Home & Property Defense
Tree Zone Awareness: The "High" to "Extreme" impact zones (red/pink on the map) will see massive tree damage.

Move cars away from trees or into a garage if possible.

Identify "safe rooms" in your house for sleeping—avoid sleeping in rooms directly under large overhanging branches.

Pipe Protection: Locate your main water shut-off valve now in case a pipe bursts. Insulate exposed pipes.

3. Family Safety & Comfort
Layering Strategy: Have sleeping bags, heavy blankets, and winter coats accessible before the lights go out.

Light Sources: Avoid candles (fire risk is high when emergency services can't travel). Use battery-operated lanterns or headlamps.

Medical Needs: Ensure you have a 3-5 day supply of any necessary medications.

4. Helping Neighbors (Community Prep)
Since you mentioned looking out for neighbors, this is critical during "Travel Impossible" conditions:

The "Pre-Check": Contact elderly or vulnerable neighbors today. Ask if they have heat sources, food, and medication.

Communication Plan: Agree on a visual signal (like a specific colored ribbon on the door or a curtain position) that means "I need help" in case phone towers go down.

Resource Pooling: Identify who has a generator, a chainsaw, or a 4WD vehicle on your street. Know who can help clear a path for emergency vehicles if a tree blocks the road.

5. What NOT To Do (Safety Warnings)
Generator Safety: Never run a generator inside, in a garage, or near a window. Carbon monoxide poisoning is a leading killer after ice storms.

No Travel: The graphic explicitly says "Travel Impossible." Do not plan to drive once the freezing rain starts (Saturday 6 PM). Bridges and overpasses will ice over first.

Do not approach downed lines: Assume every downed wire is live and lethal. Ice conducts electricity.

@admcrlsn Yeah it’s gonna be AOC later, calling it now

@nickaturley The Macbook fingerprint reader as an auth method doesn't seem to work on sites that I've set that up. It keeps asking to connect to a Bluetooth device instead.

[Adam Long @Adam_B_Long]

@ForwardCarolina Then why are you so anti-data center in your original post? It’s a weird take from a YIMBY advocacy group

[Adam Long @Adam_B_Long]

@ForwardCarolina In this post, you’re clearly in favor of a new technology that will dramatically increase grid demand. Are you concerned that electric cars will raise grid prices? Do you endorse more power generation buildout to support electrifying our cars?

[Carolina Forward @ForwardCarolina]

Electric vehicle efficiency has improved much faster than most people realize.

If you mostly use your car for driving to work, school or around town, and park it at home at night, then an EV now costs a whopping 66% less to drive than a traditional gas car.

@ForwardCarolina Is @ForwardCarolina taking the Abundance, build-more-power-generation view, or the degrowth/block data center view? What are you actually endorsing?

[Adam Long @Adam_B_Long]

@_sholtodouglas At this point, you guys have a duty to be the pro-humanist wing of AI development. So, yes, keep up the good vibes.

You don't think it's the people watching it and cheering it on?

The greatest ally fascism and genocide has are the people who say ‘I don’t follow the news, it’s too depressing.’

@thsottiaux Rolling back to a previous state of the conversation (including where the code was at that point). Extremely useful feature that Cursor has.

Also, when picking the files I want to add to context, don’t close the popover every time I select a file. I often have several I want to
