@timdalrymple415 As an organic intelligence with anxiety I can attest to having a goldfish memory.

I don’t even remember picking up my phone to reply to this tweet.

Have been in a superposition since Nov talking to people about the future of Electrobun.

This included:
- over 140 meetings
- 2 companies I really like with acquihire interest but ultimately not finding full alignment after months of conversations each.
- almost moving back to SF
- Talking to investor and founder friends about raising
- a 3 month embedded research arrangement helping shape a unicorn’s internal AI use while also studying them for my own product research.

In that time I shipped:
- 18,000+ words on “How to be an agent first” direction and culture docs for the unicorn
- Electrobun v1 (stabilized architecture and cross platform)
- Electrobun passed 12k github stars and growing with hundreds of apps already shipped
- Electrobun WGPU (games, shaders, and ML workloads)
- co(lab) completely rebuilt as Dash
- hundreds of people signed up to try Dash at https://t.co/JdbrFCeT5T

What’s next:
- Ship Dash to alpha users
- Stabilize Electrobun’s new zig core and wrappers so you can build even tinier even faster desktop apps with zig, rust, go, bun, deno, or cottontail
- Build cottontail, a new advanced: tiny, fast, and batteries-included JS runtime
- Double down on the Toronto startup ecosystem as it enters a new era

Electrobun has a strong future, I can keep going for at least the next 20 years, and I’ve never been more excited, focused, and clear about what I’m building.

Back to shipping 🚀

Shared runtime, remote loading, IPC over the internet. You've essentially built what cloud IDEs have been promising for years. Following this one.

Dash. I think this might be the final version.

Bootstrapping a startup in Canada is hell.

I've converted my electron app to electrobun and here is CPU usage. Real dark magic here :) @YoavCodes

Good thing I’m building Dash.

This won’t be possible anymore.

Codex just found a “workaround” of not having sudo on my pc…

[Yoav @YoavCodes]

@niall_obrien The future.

[Yoav @YoavCodes]

Dash will be here soon.

Cursor is not an code editor anymore.
Zed language servers and agents crash all the time.
JetBrains is too slow and agents crash all the time.
Installing a theme from VS Code store can potentially infect your computer with malware.

Who will fix this?

@mitchellh @ryanvogel I haven’t tried FSD since it almost killed me on the freeway doing a hard stop from 120 km/h, because of a what I’m guessing was a shadow.

Still a fun car to drive manually but sad I can’t even trust the basic lane assist to work reliably.

@YoavCodes Pretty excited for the next Electrobun versions!

Hands down building something epic with it 🙌

@ImLunaHey Because they don’t do human code reviews.
