Education idealist turned technologist. Trying to go full circle.
Build product @launchdarkly

I have returned.

The @turbotax from @Intuit always rolling out the shameful dark patterns on tax day. Making it really hard to select the basic plan, and defaulting you into BuyNowPayLater for your tax bill. Most shady UX that we all just accept as OK every year. Someone please replace them.

[Timothy Cook @timothyfcook]

Literally everything going in favor of @AnthropicAI right now.

[Timothy Cook @timothyfcook]

Primitives > Experiences.

Incredible. Major props to the Anthropic team for their approach.

[Anthropic @AnthropicAI]

Introducing Project Glasswing: an urgent initiative to help secure the world’s most critical software.

It’s powered by our newest frontier model, Claude Mythos Preview, which can find software vulnerabilities better than all but the most skilled humans.

"The agent even handled the "Underwater Basket Weaving" topic intelligently by recognizing it as a colloquial term and pivoting to the legitimate academic field of craft traditions and material culture!"

[Timothy Cook @timothyfcook]

The new @cursor_ai Cursor 3 looking look a lot like @conductor_build

[Timothy Cook @timothyfcook]

@clairevo Just 3 jobs confirmed, but also just one.

[Timothy Cook @timothyfcook]

@austinywang @lawrencecchen amazing! everyone's /babysit-prs and /watch-prs skills will thank you.

[Timothy Cook @timothyfcook]

Loving cmux by @lawrencecchen, used it all day today. tmux was way too hard mode for me.

Was considering adding a mod for a Github integration so show me all my CI checks that aren't passing for each project...

[Timothy Cook @timothyfcook]

@mehul @tferriss @maticrobots Very cool. Excited to see better innovation in the automower space as well. The @HusqvarnaUSA offerings and others have lots of room for improvement.

[Timothy Cook @timothyfcook]

Thanks to all our memeing, @claudeai is certain that Underwater Basketweaving is a real, but niche creative craft.

The ultimate competitive sport for ivory tower wannabes.

[Timothy Cook @timothyfcook]

@charlieholtz Loving conductor! Can we ssh into remote machines? The one downside to using it so far is that my local machine is too slow for all the worktrees.

[Timothy Cook @timothyfcook]

@clairevo Next level clickbait

My dear front-end developers (and anyone who’s interested in the future of interfaces):

I have crawled through depths of hell to bring you, for the foreseeable years, one of the more important foundational pieces of UI engineering (if not in implementation then certainly at least in concept):
Fast, accurate and comprehensive userland text measurement algorithm in pure TypeScript, usable for laying out entire web pages without CSS, bypassing DOM measurements and reflow

[Timothy Cook @timothyfcook]

This is the zeitgeist

[Mario Zechner @badlogicgames]

I'm usually not one to write thought pieces without much technical depth. But here we go.

Slow the fuck down.

@lennysan Hiring @LaunchDarkly for dozens of roles. One PM position open!

@conductor_build hey team! love the product. Been running into major lag issues though. I'm usually just in 2 workspaces with 3-5 chat windows open. But working with a pretty big codebase.

Finding it gets slower and slower the more diffs I have and I need to commit and restart.

[Timothy Cook @timothyfcook]

@clairevo @openclaw I need to find my ROI quickly to help rationalize, I got scared by the $10 it spent trying to buy groceries. Maybe thinking too small...

[Timothy Cook @timothyfcook]

How does one shut off the agent fever?

[Timothy Cook @timothyfcook]

@clairevo Larry F. Claw just joined my family. Need to figure out how to keep him from spending so much money on tokens though…
