I’m convinced this next decade is going to transition from “software eating the world” to “ai eating the software”

[Rob Hallam @robj3d3]

It's official, we have AGI.

Notion feels bloated these days, Obsidian is great but I don't have time for all the configuration/extensions. Been loving the latest from @craftdocs - less complexity but native BYO AI keys + mcp support.

so Codex on iPad acts like a Codex mobile phone, which gives you the full desktop UI/UX. meaning, you can use your iPad to control your mac mini at home and have full screen portable development, it's really magical.

it's a great question. about two years ago I was diagnosed with ADHD, and every friend who knows me well basically said, "yeah, no shit." It was still a shock to me, which is funny in hindsight.

re: digg, it's my baby. when I launched it, it was just tech news - stayed that way for the first couple of months until we opened the taxonomy up to everything. I don't need digg to be a reddit killer. if we can make it insanely useful to a couple hundred thousand people, that would be amazing. I'm about 20% there in terms of what has been built vs what I want to build.

some people have said: "I can just get this on X" what they're missing is that most people are too busy to drink from the X firehose. I keep hearing some version of "I love Elon, but I just want his tech/space tweets." that's a thing we can actually do.

such a fun time for anyone technical to build - just ran some stats, I've averaged 59.4 commits per day, 3,801 in total. shoutout to @addison 11.85% of the codebase.

[Matt Van Horn @mvanhorn]

Just found out @kevinrose wrote pretty much all the code of the new @Digg himself. We literally wouldn't let him touch the code base in 2007, he just had to be the "idea guy" in the meetings, then we would take months to build it, weeks for the community to test it then meet with Kevin again to restart the cycle. Agentic engineering is magical. He has done 3,801 of 4,312 commits, which is 88.15%. Madness.

[Kevin Rose @kevinrose]

@arnteriksen @addison I rarely roll back, maybe twice, but yeah, it's been a ton of work, but really fun, I'm actually re-architecting the backend right now.

[Kevin Rose @kevinrose]

@SahilDewan @digg Amazing!! 🤩

[Kevin Rose @kevinrose]

a huge thank you to all my ai friends that have tried the new @digg over the last two weeks, we're off to a good start. more topics are on the roadmap 🙏

[Kevin Rose @kevinrose]

@Neil_Dagger @digg thank you, baby steps, one little feature/tweak at a time.

[Kevin Rose @kevinrose]

@DanielleFong lol

[Kevin Rose @kevinrose]

@daniel_mac8 @digg lol, same, I'm not even ranked...

[Kevin Rose @kevinrose]

New @digg updates: AMA on stories, new profiles, github activity tracking, and more!

[Kevin Rose @kevinrose]

@digg also, watch @garrytan code live :)

[Kevin Rose @kevinrose]

@One_Way_Home @grok What software is he using to create this, and is it real-time or post-rendered?

[Kevin Rose @kevinrose]

The @karpathy news is absolutely exploding on @digg right now, insane...

[Kevin Rose @kevinrose]

@mvanhorn @MaksimXBT @digg @trevin lol, lordy, more dashboards to monitor
