introducing NotchBrowser 👊

at what time of the day does everyone do their equivalent of "deep work"?

[marcus ang @marcusjhang]

biggest lesson i’ve learnt so far working in @lightsprintai:

fall in love with the problem, not the solution

bias to action is very common to new engineers (like myself!)

it’s so important to explore and obsess over the problem, solution comes after 🙂 always problem first.

about time!

Shipped a new term to the AI Coding Dictionary: Software Factory

@vamonke @WisprFlow https://t.co/U4E8PJKQfE

im using this, i tried wisprflow before and it was good, but i was barely using it haha, can never beat free

[marcus ang @marcusjhang]

been loving open source alternatives to popular tools recently - this one was cause i didn’t want to spend $15 on @WisprFlow

[marcus ang @marcusjhang]

bro gave up @OpenAI

self-driving software has gone too far

[Tony Ennis @tonyennis]

A Software Factory that captures all of the potential upside of what Software Factories should unlock

- Is basically fully web/cloud based & looks more like Lovable than Cursor
- Allows PMs, designers, and other non-technical people to contribute, and is designed around that reality
- Is focused on ruthlessly reducing feedback loop time - time to create a task, time to make a change, time to run Ci, time to merge to main

Very few products are actually building with this in mind. Niteshift and Hoplite look good, but after a day of trying out a lot, I've settled (for now) on https://t.co/8Wqu0jcMq7

We're still so, so early

[marcus ang @marcusjhang]

have been building my own “product-builder” skill (modelled after https://t.co/M8W0Qt7UxX) and it has started to take over reviewing all my PRs 😦

[rivers @riversofsoy]

?

[marcus ang @marcusjhang]

@dromzeh 🫪🫪 gonna try it

[marcus ang @marcusjhang]

there must be some way to use AI to organise my phone's homescreen, how has this not been created yet??

[marcus ang @marcusjhang]

multiplayer AI in its truest form, so sick!

[Ando @andocorporation]

we’re excited to share that we’ve raised $20M (from Accel, Index, & Emergence) to build the 'ai-native Slack' you've all been craving

TLDR; ando is a team messaging platform built fresh, from the ground, up for a world where agents act as real collaborators alongside us.

we have teams using us across 15 countries, and spanning industries like software, financial services, real estate, & more
