@karrisaarinen @thekitze With or without a Starlink connection and Codex subscription?

@thsottiaux Brodex

[Mani Batra @manibatra]

@0xSero Codex with SSH connection has been very stable for me. Connection using the desktop app, not so much

Toasty

[Mani Batra @manibatra]

Inference is cheap. Inference is costly. Nobody tells you that inference is loud and toasty. You learn that when you run a 2 x RTX Pro 6000 build in your office.

@skydotcs This non deterministic contraption did a non deterministic thing. I lost some things because I didn't do the deterministic thing I should have. Now I am angry.

Love Remodex by @emanueledpt for working with Codex (release the app @ajambrosino , @thsottiaux ) on the go.

Made it more personal: libghostty terminal ( @mitchellh 🙌) , @pierrecomputer Diffs review, file/change accept-reject, updated some project sidebar controls, native macOS app/plugin @mentions, faster bridge recovery.

Lesson from automating Sentry fixes: don’t ask an agent to “fix the issue.”

Ask it to prove the issue first: hypothesis, evidence, narrow patch, tests, browser verification, and PR metadata linking back to Sentry.

Automation gets safer when it adds the right friction.

[Mani Batra @manibatra]

A lot of “AI agents” are just weaker, prettier versions of `grep`, `cat`, `ls`, and `find`.

If a model can't inspect reality, it's mostly doing improv.

[Mani Batra @manibatra]

@thsottiaux Give me deep research in Codex. Also give me the ability to ask a question about something in the output without actually continuing the conversation.

@garrytan Built a system in the early days with Squid proxy and an explicit allowlist of domains it’s allowed to reach to. Get approval request for new domains. Working like a charm.

@rohanvarma Give me 4x speed and a more expensive plan with higher usage limits

Agents go brrrrr. I will need to get a second @OpenAI Codex account when the 2x limits are turned off.
