You gave your AI agent (OpenClaw, Hermes, Claude Code) a whole server. Why does email still depend on 3rd party?

Introducing AIMX: a self-hosted, open-source email server designed for AI agents.

How Postfix would look if it were built for AI agents.

Give me my good old Apple back. Make great non-gimmicky stuff that works. We get a folded iPhone and touch-screen Mac on the same year? No!

I hope Apple's AI strategy never worked out. I need my dumb smart phones just like I need my dumb TVs.

Waiting for my spell cooldown to hit 100% so I can cast it with "Reset for free". @claudeai @ClaudeDevs

[U-Zyn Chua @uzyn]

This is **ONE** prompt on @claudeai Code on the Cloud. $100.

$100. Just for the VPS "rental" for about 40 minutes, exclusive of LLM tokens!

Just a few days ago, this was free. You just had to pay for Claude tokens.

@asimovinc Almost Asian squat. You can do it @asimovinc! Make Asia proud!

@christianelton @claudeai @ClaudeDevs @OpenAI @AnthropicAI Leading up to IPO. Probably going to slow down after, they have even hinted that.

@JackRhysider @three_cube That’s so 2000. Text editor picking today is between `claude ` and `codex`.

@sketch Just upgraded! Still catching up on the new features. I especially love that the UI is pretty much consistent since the 2019 release. I don’t feel out of place with the new version.

Thanks @sketch for still championing the pay-once, keep-forever licensing practice today. My copy, which I still use semi-regularly, is 7 years old & 40 releases behind.

I've upgraded twice, probably time for me to upgrade again for the 3rd time. Still my fav design software.

TISC 2026 by CSIT SG starts tomorrow night, runs to 20 Sep.

A fun, extremely challenging CTF you can do from home.

Like last year, I crafted one of the challenges, so no prizes for me. Share more after the contest.

Apple's amazing at sales. I hated the fact that Apple even explored fold phones. I thought it's dumb & gimmicky. After browsing the product page, for the first time I'm quite sold on the point of the fold.

Let's see if Apple will convince me on the rumored touchscreen MacBook.

AI is perfect for ADHD individuals. But at the same time it’s also making it worse.

Start one prompt, while waiting, 3 other prompts on separate projects just come up. It’s Hydra. Arrrgh!!!

[U-Zyn Chua @uzyn]

You don't pay for gas to drive around to the gas station.
You don't pay a carpenter to spend all day sharpening the saw.
You don't rent a warehouse to store the shelving.

Same for LLM tokens.
Stop burning them to tune harnesses that burn more tokens.

Build something!

[U-Zyn Chua @uzyn]

@DougPolkVids Pre- and Post- GTO too. Certainly more fun on pre-GTO days.

[U-Zyn Chua @uzyn]

@yheushen Just happened to me too awhile ago! 98% during the last hour before weekly reset.

[U-Zyn Chua @uzyn]

@unofficialtool @claudeai Some. This is for one project though.

[U-Zyn Chua @uzyn]

Love that @claudeai is not shy at spawning agents.

[U-Zyn Chua @uzyn]

A good day is when you have 6 long-running agents set up and running well before you head out for lunch appointment.

[U-Zyn Chua @uzyn]

Claude gets smarter and token-hungrier , but our monthly sub allowance remains flat. @AnthropicAI can we have 100x Max plan at $500/month? Will happily pay for that.

5+ days till reset but I'm already maxxing out my weekly credits. I should touch grass for rest of the week?
