@seekinggradient I'm up for this too!

[Jason Bates @JasonBates]

well hello there...

[Jason Bates @JasonBates]

Tested lots of research tools today. (you .com, parallel, perplexity, etc.)
most interesting finding: Stating exclusions as a deliverable (“A section with sources considered and rejected”) took compliance from leaky to 100% where the same rule as an instruction was ignored. 🤷🏻

[Jason Bates @JasonBates]

@NateKettles @SpencerGBull Thanks again. I just had a Claude /deep-research query spend 5.66M tokens in 27 minutes across 106 agents, so I'm feeling that pain already. 😬

[Jason Bates @JasonBates]

I got inspired by https://t.co/mXKupIDCoA @SpencerGBull - and repurposed an old iPad.

It tracks agents in Herdr, and lets me switch between them with a tap of the screen. The game changer was getting a local agent to title and subtitle the agents using their transcripts.

Our new Dell 52" 6k Ultra Wide feels like a full wall of display. Works great in Omarchy over a single thunderbolt cable for charging and display. But I still can't ditch the multi-agent command center bottom screen to help manage herdr while I multi-task.

@NateKettles @SpencerGBull Thanks for the tip.

I'm researching for a book I'm writing and I've been testing perplexity deep research and model council vs claude deep research vs chatGPT with a number of prompts and effort levels.

[Jason Bates @JasonBates]

@yagudaev @SpencerGBull @AgentGrid_sh @0xpaperhead agree :)

[Jason Bates @JasonBates]

Plug in a random ESP-32 LCD display and tell claude code to find it and create a dashboard showing inside and outside temperatures. (so I know when to open and close the windows at night / in the morning. )

I gave it a few design pointers and let it cook.

.@whoop You're silently disconnecting users from third-party apps / API use.
Your token endpoint runs ~24× slower at 12:00, 01:00, etc.
Refreshes crossing ~10.8s return 502 after the rotation has committed — grant dead, user has to re-authorise.

Claude Code is incredible. The terminal is ugly.
So I wrapped it in a native desktop app.
Full power, zero monospace, 100% customizable.

A few days of prompting. 25,000 lines of code.
Agentic coding is crazy addictive.

So sad to hear that Barb Mclean passed away recently. She was such a positive, warm, enthusiastic person. Even though I didn't see her very often, I feel like the world is a worse place without her.

@DharmaRational but can he stand up to the 'dharma-nator' ??

@PAHutchinson Absolutely Philippa. Why make customers learn double entry book keeping and create an extensive chart of accounts? They want to focus on the financial operations of their business

[Jason Bates @JasonBates]

I got talking to @suyamanuk tonight as he was pitching 'Zobo Pale Ale', his Nigerian inspired beer to a bar manager. It's hard graft getting something off the ground, and he was hustling! Good luck Tunde!

[Jason Bates @JasonBates]

@sjarquedeakin Well done Sarah! You got this
