@itstuckermac Congrats Tucker!! Well deserved!!

Unbelievable!!! grug started as a funny joke over the weekend but quickly grew to become one of the most fun things @michelelings and I built this past year.

To win an Apple Design Award is truly a dream come true since we started working together 15 years ago. Speechless...

@ship_temp_md exactly!

So cool, I vibe-coded a simple workout app in Codex and wanted to update it mid-workout. I had Codex push the build to TestFlight, then downloaded the new version right there in the gym.

[Edward Sanchez @edwardsanchez]

@zats Yes between sets 😄 Wanted a new feature, prompted it and got it within a few minutes.

[Edward Sanchez @edwardsanchez]

@geniegetsme TestFlight please! 😄

[Edward Sanchez @edwardsanchez]

Could be a second channel always in background yeah.
I don't necessarily want it to have the ability to accept commands and change the code, I know that can get complicated with UX and latency. But I would love to have a conversation about the repo, and about the work currently being done.

It's good for brainstorming ideas about what you're building when it has a full understanding of it all and can grep particular files, features, etc.

[Edward Sanchez @edwardsanchez]

@Dimillian Yeah at least if you close it and try to type /side again, rather than showing nothing, can just open up existing side again.

[Edward Sanchez @edwardsanchez]

@SebJVidal @MatManferdini @squeakytoy This is correct

[Edward Sanchez @edwardsanchez]

@Dimillian I've felt that before for a while at Apple. Feels surreal to be getting paid to do what you would happily do as a hobby.

[Edward Sanchez @edwardsanchez]

@rudrank Ooh that’s why huh?? I’ve had other issues with private relay and codex on Mac before.

[Edward Sanchez @edwardsanchez]

@twannl I wonder if there's a way to sort of automate this? It can catch you by surprise. Maybe something in UI tests to validate that it's not triggering too many updates?

[Edward Sanchez @edwardsanchez]

@davidsenra @RickRubin I MUST WATCH! Where??

[Edward Sanchez @edwardsanchez]

@bengold Yeah I was joking really. I've tried all sorts. Psilocybin, Ketamine, THC...

Ketamine micro-dose can help, but it's easy to fall into a hole if you take too much, and then it can be really bad. Best to do with someone nearby.

I want to try Ayahuasca sometime.

[Edward Sanchez @edwardsanchez]

All my woes are animation and scrollview related too.
There are 2 skills here in the package, one puts a modifier on your view to measure it over time (by default just 15fps) and output to console. That way agent can analyze motion with numbers that it understands.

The other takes a video and converts to a series of screenshots, has ability to diff screenshots, but as you can imagine, it's not as accurate.

[Edward Sanchez @edwardsanchez]

@hxxwhite Dude! Have you shown this to folks at Apple? Let me know if you want an introduction. DMs are open.

[Edward Sanchez @edwardsanchez]

@mufasaYC @Flighty @aaronagai @rjonesy Nothing ever goes wrong when you mix things up even a tiny bit in SwiftUI!

[Edward Sanchez @edwardsanchez]

@Dimillian What's the use case and best practices for using Plan mode together with Goal mode? You can toggle both in the app. Does it make its goal to make a plan? Is it a better plan then?

Or is it just that it sets the plan normally but then when it executes it it executes it using goal mode?
