@vikpat Easiest follow ever. This series did its job: I’m done dabbling.

Public commitment: my first story-driven video drops within 30 days.

It’s about leaving a full-time job to build my first product independently, and realizing that quitting was the easy part.

Hold me to it 🎬

This makes me nervous in the Codex app.

I’d love a guardrail that says: “I’m about to start a big job. Want to move this to a new thread first?”

A city in Italy is hosting a 10K run where participants can eat unlimited tiramisu after finishing

It will take place as part of Treviso's annual Tiramisu World Cup

@gregbarbosa What’s missing vs an actual consumer smart ring like aura then?

@mynameisyahia @getcontextdev Hey o! Building something in the life sciences space

@HcwXd @WonderingApp I'm in love with this app and using it to learn photography for the first time.

On days like these, I’m thankful for capitalism and competition.

I can actually switch instead of getting locked in. Short-term pain - Opus is that damn good - but OpenAI will catch up, prices keep dropping, and at the end of the day we the consumers win.

The market decides. Fast.

woke up and my mentions are full of these

Both me and @davemorin tried to talk sense into Anthropic, best we managed was delaying this for a week.

Funny how timings match up, first they copy some popular features into their closed harness, then they lock out open source.

[Pranay Madan @DataMadan]

@arvidkahl @PriyanshuMadan you want to plug in distill here?

[Pranay Madan @DataMadan]

@elonmusk I would love for a setting to disable short form videos if possible

[Pranay Madan @DataMadan]

@ziwenxu_ Love it!
OpenClaw

[Pranay Madan @DataMadan]

@nikillinit Yes - happy to lend!
I have a couple lying around. Just DM me.

[Pranay Madan @DataMadan]

@Austen Thanks @Austen - makes sense- excited to try it out!

[Pranay Madan @DataMadan]

@Austen Are these different agents or different sessions with the same agent- cant figure out the right approach - i dont want to deal with defining multiple agents..

[Pranay Madan @DataMadan]

@Suhail ive found it useful to just remove all mentions of brave from the skills and prompt - added a new exa search skill and have it named web search - it always defaults to that now, have not tried native openai search

[Pranay Madan @DataMadan]

I genuinely want to start learning how to contribute to open source projects now- just an incredible outcome for everyone- congrats @steipete!!!

Peter Steinberger is joining OpenAI to drive the next generation of personal agents. He is a genius with a lot of amazing ideas about the future of very smart agents interacting with each other to do very useful things for people. We expect this will quickly become core to our product offerings.

OpenClaw will live in a foundation as an open source project that OpenAI will continue to support. The future is going to be extremely multi-agent and it's important to us to support open source as part of that.

Ran with OpenClaw + DuckDB on the 2.9GB parquet in ~20 minutes from my phone.

DOGE just open-sourced the largest Medicaid dataset in HHS history.

227M rows. $1.09T in payments. 2018–2024.

I ran 5 fraud-pattern SQL checks on it in ~20 minutes using @openclaw + DuckDB.

Here’s what popped. 🧵

⚠️ These are anomaly signals, not accusations.
Some may have legitimate explanations.

Point is: this is basic SQL (GROUP BY, ratios, YoY checks).

Once data is public, these patterns are fast to surface.
