This is the first live launch I've seen on TV (well, YouTube in this case) since the Challenger disaster. Was a nice relief to see this one go so smoothly.
Love this. This enables the split many of us have been aiming for - fully autonomous workflows for repeatable tasks that are reasonable to spec out and set-and-forget, and the more collaborative agentic-assisted workflows where more human intervention and guidance is required.
Being able to codify these important-but-often-forgotten workflows in such a way that you can set-it-and-forget-it and keep shipping at multi-agent speed is pretty dope.
The biggest value IMHO of OpenClaw is that it's in the Apple ecosystem, so it leverages Reminders, iCloud sync for Obsidian values, etc., so not having a Mac option is pretty limiting for anyone who's relying on those integrations currently.
This reminds me of the time that Ripple launched a marketing promotion, giving developers some amount of Ripple to encourage micropayments. They defined "developer" as "someone who has had a GitHub account for 1 year prior to this announcement" to stop folks from creating hundreds of new accounts to claim credits. This essentially created a bounty on existing GitHub accounts and led to thousands of account compromises due to poor password hygiene. GitHub account security is much better now than it was back then (Nov 2013), but this solution similarly puts a bounty on highly-vouched accounts.
Pretty rich for the administration that deregulated OSHA and massively harmed our ability to ensure food safety to tell people literally anything about food.
And yet not a single doctor in the United States will permit you to care about early signals, preventative medicine, or routine deep dive bloodwork, in order to stave off those diseases. Anyone who's on top of this is paying fully out of pocket for individual tests, screenings, medicines. Manageable for some, unattainable for most.
I've been looking to replace Superhuman recently. None of their AI or Team features matter to me. I just wanted what they originally set out to build -- a super fast, keyboard driven, desktop email client. There are daily paper cut bugs and search issues that have persisted for many years, and I'm not going to stick around through this transition which will surely make the product worse.
What do folks like for desktop email that's keyboard driven? At this point I almost want to go back to Pine ;)
