A family member's house collapsed yesterday in General Santos City, PH after the mag 7.8 earthquake.

Sad stuff.

The house isn't expensive by western standards, but it will take them probably half a decade to recover from without help. Many such cases.

@housecor No room for halucinatios anymore? :(

[Gerard Chetrit @chetrit_]

@dhruvtwt_ Maybe. Depends on which is better. You don’t follow a company, you follow the best inference!!!

[Gerard Chetrit @chetrit_]

@5eniorDeveloper Time to add @hob_app to that set up

[Gerard Chetrit @chetrit_]

respect, that setup is genuinely fast once it's dialed in. the part i'd push back on is that it's yours.

The config, the muscle memory, the scripts. hard to share with a teammate, and every tool update risks breaking it. Works great for one power user, less so when you want a few people running agents the same way

[Gerard Chetrit @chetrit_]

@walidbelr @melvynx If you are building with several agents at the same time, I do not think terminals are the best tool...

I am very curious to know more about your workflow

[Gerard Chetrit @chetrit_]

Using @hob_app and it simply beats all competitors for me. The devs behind it really know what they are doing.

Cursor is great, but they want to own your workspace and your inference. One company controlling both is a bad deal for devs.

Tools and intelligence should be separable, and hob gets it.

A few months ago, I swapped ChatGPT Pro for Claude Max.
I still open free-tier ChatGPT every day.
Not for the model but for the transcriber. No matter what I try, the one from Claude doesn't do a good job.

My workflow:

- Record a voice memo with full context (what I'm building, what I need, what the AI should know)

- Transcribe in ChatGPT.

-Paste into Claude and let it work.

[Noah @NoahKingJr]

Hey ChatGPT, help me write a prompt for Claude.

@dhruvtwt_ congrats!

This reinforces my POV on the future of the market for the next few years. these companies come up with major changes that help them frontrun competitors for a while.

That's why @hob_app , the workspace we're building is agent independent.

Robin! I always see your content and think you sound like the person we are building for. I'd love to give you access to the alpha and get to know what you think :)

[Gerard Chetrit @chetrit_]

@theo I do marketing, so Grok is really useful to me. It allows me to do some crazy good active listening and map out trends in the niches I target. But it all depends on what you’re using it for.

@magnific 🫡

[Gerard Chetrit @chetrit_]

Great rebrand.
Tiny bug though: unnamed generated files still download with 'freepik' in the filename, not 'magnific'.

[Magnific @magnific]

Freepik is now Magnific

One platform to rewrite the rules of creativity

[hob @hob_app]

Week 1 of the hob alpha. Here's what shipped🚀:
– PRs natively from the agent. No gh, no tea, no extra CLI. It opens one, you review, it ships.
– Agent input redesigned with profile/model/reasoning chips, and @-files as inline pills.
– Go to File (Cmd/Ctrl+P) for jumping anywhere in your project.
– Settings is now a full page, searchable, and easier to navigate.
– Windows is now a first-class experience.

[Gerard Chetrit @chetrit_]

@CallMeGwei Curious to see how they will fix this

[Andrew D. Anderson @CallMeGwei]

Lee Robinson, Cursor: "There need to be tools more broadly accessible than $20,000-a-month plans."

A Cursor employee acknowledging that current AI coding pricing already excludes people from the category.

The real cost of running these models is somewhere north of "a Tesla per developer per year."

The interesting question isn't which model wins...

It's what your tools look like the day pricing reflects actual cost.

[Gerard Chetrit @chetrit_]

@arny_laishram @ParthJadhav8 I’d be concerned about cursor being both the editor and the inference. This is pushing for a scenario were the future is fully in their hands.

+ even if you are using claude code they get access to your code to build their own AI.

This is why I fell in love with @hob_app

[Gerard Chetrit @chetrit_]

@aixarizzo This is not realistic though. It clearly reduced your jaw size without any treatment there, and that was the main adjustment it made. Maybe if it said you had botox there to reduce your muscle, it would be more accurate, but it's not at that stage yet.

[Gerard Chetrit @chetrit_]

@icanvardar We took it one step ahead and are literally building our product with the product itself ❤️‍🔥 @hob_app
