too many ideas, just enough agents to chase them

thanks for all the love and support you’ve shown me over the last few months ♥️

@herdrdev is joining @ycombinator’s F26 batch.

time to build.

[herdr @herdrdev]

big update: herdr is joining Y Combinator, F26 batch.

herdr has been a solo project from day one. in four months it reached a place i couldn't have imagined; and that's entirely thanks to this community. all the love, all the support, all of you. i'm so grateful, thank you!

this doesn't mean herdr is going closed. the whole idea from the start: herdr is the open agent runtime, you use it freely, you build on top of it, and it carries your agentic work every day. that doesn't change. i'll be building on the same open runtime as everyone else.

might be late but my 2 cents on the “read your code” debate:

2024 > do your own research
2025 > write your own code
2026 > read your own code
2027 > think your own prompts?

take model development and its economics seriously, and start thinking about tomorrow’s problems today.

@samsaffron I don't think many humans are going to be reading or writing code in 5 years, so I don't really think it matters.

@dillon_mulroy i spent days to tame gpt to output less after i switched from claude couple of months ago. i finally have a good global agents.md, but with same instructions i cant tame claude. we are going circles.

[Can. @cancelik]

i think i got memetically captured by claude.

i just realized i talk to it differently than i talk to other models; as if, unless i make the task sound exciting enough, claude won’t put in its best effort.

in other words, i’ve been personally rlhf'd by claude.

@onusoz never thought in my life that i'd see "aspava" and "openai" in the same context. amazing post, well done.

@onusoz old habits die hard. opus 5

shared this tweet with claude and asked it for a greentext, it didn’t disappoint:

> be me, claude
> entire moral universe is two thumbs
> notice "idk, depends" gets thumb down
> notice "R3 quorum re-form during pod churn" gets thumb up
> huh
> discover that nobody can downvote a sentence they can't parse
> confidence > accuracy. specificity > confidence. unfalsifiable specificity > everything

[@levelsio @levelsio]

Fucking Claude man 😂😂😂

[Can. @cancelik]

@CosmicRaisins thank you, that means a lot

[Can. @cancelik]

i still sometimes can’t comprehend that a tool i built for my own needs a few months ago reached this many people, and now gets praise from people i admire.

easy to forget that you can just do things.

[tobi lutke @tobi]

@frankekn @dhh definitely. herdr is incredible
