Wrote about 4 years of using @obsdmd to do self-discovery in markdown files.

More than 700 notes later, it's become less about the perfect note-taking system and more about writing regularly to document what life feels like, one draft at a time.

today was my last day in cloudflare (again). the best career and opportunity in my whole life, and the closest friends I would die for. thank you to everyone who made it all so special. I had an incredible time. 🧡

[Junaid Rahim @junaidrahim]

after all the dust has settled, I think only design engineers and research engineers would be left, each directing a swarm of agents ofc.

makes a good case for open access research

[Charlie Marsh @charliermarsh]

A real thing I'm doing now is telling the models to find interesting ideas from published literature that we can productionize to improve our software, it's awesome lol

tern + omp have fully blown my mind

[Junaid Rahim @junaidrahim]

@Turnfeed I did some minimal steering to ask it to check my notes on notion for some of the books I have for artwork inspiration.

I have very scattered notes on some of the books that I've finished.

[Junaid Rahim @junaidrahim]

added a shelf page to my website to show my books, just added photos of my irl shelf and asked codex to add artwork and colours by researching the book and it did a pretty good job.

Imagine how annoyed you have to be to engrave a rock with a complaint 3,766 years ago

[float @notesbyfloat]

A man cannot prompt the same agent twice, for it is has compacted and is not the same agent, and he is not the same man

Really want my software factory to do this

[skye @Skye]

we've been having a lot of fun experimenting with interfaces for personal agents.

while a lot of the space is converging on messaging, notifications, & text heavy productivity work loads we're much more interested in delight & getting you in & out of ai with just one tap.

we like to think of fun questions like what happens when your home screen, ambient displays, & other surfaces become alive with useful, surprising, & context aware experiences?

when you travel, it changes. when you arrive somewhere new, it changes. when something interesting is happening around you, it changes. the interface understands where you are & what's going on without constantly demanding your attention.

the analogy i use is simple.. we don't really focus on "here are 17 things you need to do" but more "oh, that's cool."

we built this for iOS 27 to take full advantage of large surfaces outside of apps & also local models / apple intelligence. you can download it from the app store today. oh you can use this alongside your other messaging assistants too.

appreciate you all following along & the endless curiosity about it in the dm's. we are going to add a lot more here shortly. we know this space is very noisy!

managed to write a ~6k word submission for this, took me two weeks, but felt like a new part of my brain got exercised. nice side quest

[Gergely Orosz @GergelyOrosz]

We received ~100 submissions just last day 😅

Not going to lie: it is VERY satisfying reading through all these non-AI essays written mostly by devs on how they see the industry changing.

Human writing + deep thinking >> AI writing

You’ll also soon be able to read many of them

[Junaid Rahim @junaidrahim]

@_svs_ @AdvaitRaykar what a 10/10 list, no notes

[Junaid Rahim @junaidrahim]

there is no agent, there is just the state

[patagucci perf papi @kenwheeler]

you needed that a year ago. now you need that, a redundant cloud instance, gcp or modal spin ups, a tailnet full of local machines, cameras, 3d printers, robot arms, esp-32 devices, etc

[Junaid Rahim @junaidrahim]

mac studio + macbook air is a goated setup

[DHH @dhh]

Every developer needs an AI shed: An always-on machine running on their tailscale network where the majority of their herdr agents are running.

[Dave Kiss @davekiss]

The mac mini bois were right all along

it'd be interesting to see what kind of companies become dots/instinct/muse only

how would products and services deal with agents who have credit cards instead of people
