Crazy I just walked by this building last night and discussed how ominous it looks with a friend

Does anyone know the best USB thumb drives? I need to buy 10 32GB, but every somewhat affordable bulk option is very suspicious and throttles or fails. Sandisk is reputable but costs a premium.

Why would you share data with Meta like this? The Agent Computer is super powerful, but by definition its easier than ever to build one yourself, and a the result is a personal and private computer. I know most "normal" people won

Yes but this can be a slow loop. Push to GH, run CI (in GHs relatively slow / fragile runners), poll GH APIs to see status and get errors, make changes. Then repeat. The optimization is to bring running tests / fixing errors into

My `codex` design session landed on opening GitHub PRs and labeling some with `automerge` that we're comfortable landing on main after GH also verifies the checks.

pre-commit and pre-push hooks sound smart. I like that those will work the same for any human or any harness vs harness hooks. Then push straight to main? Or do we need GitHub to help manage the queue https://docs.github.com&#x2F

The referenced https://blog.exe.dev/replace-your-ci is resonating with me. I'm spending a relatively large amount of time waiting for CI to finish running, then clicking a button for an agent to fix failures, then wait

Congrats and thanks! htmx brings me joy. Pretty much every experiment I build now starts with Go, htmx, and SQLite to keep things simple and fast but still responsive. I put a few more thoughts about this here: https://housecat.c

Interesting article, but there's little question the "agent computer" pattern is only going to grow. Security is a major concern but I don't see why we aren't already "good enough" with a sandbox VM, separ

Single Go binary + SQLite database all the way. I've been doing this architecture on single tenant VMs for like 6+ years now and it has so many advantages for deployments, security and scaling. Pretty much every new tool and agent comp

You nailed it, this is a meta game. AI lets you LARP. Want to be the head of a game studio? "Hire" a bunch of game dev agents, put them to work in the software factory, get pretty progress updates and an actual game of sorts along

Seems like this is the year of the sandbox and governance layers. I recently wrote how we set all this up for our agent computers that help people with their email: https://housecat.com/blog/agent-computer-101 I do agr

How does this compare to https://github.com/pingdotgg/t3code or https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo ? Is there a good resource indexing all the coding agent tools / harnesses? Every awesome list

I have tried it many times and I want to like it but I find the LLM doesn't program in it well. Maybe it's my fault, or maybe a model training, or something to improve in docs and SDKs?

Close but htmx with SSE and dom swaps and morphing gets you there without reinventing any wheels. Pretty much every web app I build has this pattern in it from day 1, as they all quickly expand to have a realtime inbox and notifications sub

Looks nice. I have a number of these pieces in a binary I drop first thing on every agent computer: https://github.com/housecat-inc/scratch Chat to code with an inspector to point at specific DOM sections, review diffs

Technically this is vandalism of a govt building. If they're so concerned about cost, why not do what you'd do with any other vandal with a spray paint can... Immediately paint over it with grey paint to neutralize the "bligh

Congrats! Building a cloud like Fly is very difficult. Staying nimble through technology shifts is hard. I’m right there with you on the agent computer shift. It’s forever changed how I code and deploy and architect systems. Thanks for all

Thanks for the explanation. I do find air lacking for sufficiently complicated applications servers

How does this compare to templ and templui? I see from the docs that gsx is templ compatible. And why does this depend on node / npx? Something to do with the JSX syntax and parsing? I wish go std templates were more ergonomic for comp

I continue to love DBOS for how it just leverages Postgres (and now SQLite) properly. It's effortless to drop into an existing CRUD stack. Once you start down the "durable workflows" path, you start seeing them everywhere. My

We're thinking and designing with number of finance / VC / PE types. This is where the durable workflows can really help. I wouldn't trust a agent chat or SKILL.md for numbers just yet. But I would trust having a coding

Yes that's a good way to think about it. We started as a hosted claw of sorts. But the less technical folks wanted something more than chats and markdown to do their work. We then added a modern todo list interface. Having the agent cr

TL;DR we're building a unified UX / API / SDK / VM all around the concept of "inbox". Not just bolting AI on to search / draft / send. First its a question of the shape of a product. There are a few p

I love Hetzner for some of the cheapest cloud components that can do anything. One use case is a custom ACME cert broker and DNS server. Another is their storage boxes split up into sub accounts for my and friends backups and music. I'
