Some lessons for life that I've learnt after some years working in tech.

A thread 🧵

[Alex López @alopezari]

@thsottiaux Codex feature request for better UX:

If the user hasn't updated Codex in a while and has accumulated multiple pending updates, allow Codex to install them all in a chain of updates by clicking the "Update" button only once.

Or, if you want to preserve the current behavior intentionally, add a new "Update to latest" button. It's a bit annoying to update and restart Codex multiple times in a row.

I have held my tongue for 15 months, but I can't abide or normalize the legal violence that @wpengine is inflicting anymore.

Here's my thoughts on @WordPress's 23rd birthday: https://t.co/Q98Soa6RA9

Question for developers and non developers:

How has AI unlocked you at work? Please share also what do you work in

[Claude @claudeai]

Effective today, we are:

1) Doubling Claude Code’s 5-hour rate limits for Pro, Max, and Team plans;

2) Removing the peak hours limit reduction on Claude Code for Pro and Max plans; and

3) Substantially raising our API rate limits for Opus models.

Very promising @alex_whedon!

I’m building an agent that requires low latency and cost, so I will try SubQ for sure. Hope it’s good at tool calling too 🤞

Already signed up for early access :)

[Alex López @alopezari]

@juanmacias Has probado los 3 con el mismo harness? Es decir, mismo agente, mismo set de herramientas, etc. Eso podría tener un impacto importante en la comparativa.

[Alex López @alopezari]

Claude Code seems to be down and I was able to find the solution to my coding problem in @StackOverflow

Is the world upside down or is the right side up?

[Alex López @alopezari]

@batuhan Do you prefer GPT over Claude, @batuhan ?

[OpenAI Developers @OpenAIDevs]

We're introducing Codex Security.

An application security agent that helps you secure your codebase by finding vulnerabilities, validating them, and proposing fixes you can review and patch.

Now, teams can focus on the vulnerabilities that matter and ship code faster.

[OpenAI Developers @OpenAIDevs]

We’re launching Codex for Open Source to support the contributors who keep open-source software running.

Maintainers can use Codex to review code, understand large codebases, and strengthen security coverage without taking on even more invisible work.

Today we're launching local scheduled tasks in Claude Code desktop.

Create a schedule for tasks that you want to run regularly. They'll run as long as your computer is awake.

[Alex López @alopezari]

@X I really miss having a button in my keyboard to switch between languages when using de iOS X app, similar to what Slack does.

Is there any option already for that?

[Alex López @alopezari]

@batuhan What do you feel about tools like @conductor_build or Codex App?

They are mainly agent orchestrators but you can also review PRs with them.

[Alex López @alopezari]

Hi @benjitaylor!

I've been using Readout for some days and I love it. I have some feedback that might improve the UX.

As you can see in the video, the left menu conflicts when scrolling with the "Settings" button at the bottom and the window controls at the top.

It would feel a bit more polished if the items in the left menu were in a container that didn't conflict with the other elements on the left side of the window, and only that container was scrollable, not the entire left menu, in order to avoid visual conflicts with the window controls and the settings button.

Anyway, great job on this! It's a great tool and very pleasant to use.

[Alex López @alopezari]

@openclaw has some flaws, but it is one of the most impactful tools we’ve seen recently.

It’s not only changing how we interact with software, but opening a new trend (see all the WhateverClaw out there), and even improving existing apps, like Telegram.

Pretty impressive, @steipete

[Pavel Durov @durov]

All Telegram chatbots can now stream responses to users in real time — great for AI assistants.

[Lydia Hallie ✨ @lydiahallie]

Excited to announce Claude for Open Source ❤️

We're giving 6 months of free Claude Max 20x to open source maintainers and core contributors.

If you maintain a popular project or contribute across open source, please apply!

@MatthewBerman Hmm interesting, haven’t explored the agents SDK yet. Thanks for the insight!

[Alex López @alopezari]

@MatthewBerman Yep. If I'm not wrong, agents SDK requires API key, which means more profit for Anthropic (in autonomous agents like OpenClaw) than just subscriptions (fixed rate), right?

Have been using this daily and loving it! Tell us what you think
