Magnet is easily one of the best mac apps i've ever purchased - makes window management so easy and it works great every time. Just Command + Shift and then you can pick any portion of the screen you want the window to go to.
That paired with multiple desktops does the trick for me! Highly reccommend (not sure if it's okay to share URLs? sorry in case it's not):
> I think most engineers vastly overestimate how important high quality, maintainable, reliable code is to product success.
I agree, the only thing I can’t get past is the black box approach. For the majority of business stakeholders, they can’t/ don’t want to read the code that Opus, or any other agent produces. It will most likely work, but if it doesn’t, they have to rely on the agent to find & patch.
I’m with you though, it’s getting incredibly good at doing that, but that concept of “It works but I don’t know why” seems very dangerous at scale.
That last mile for apps isn’t trivial imo; to take them from “it’s cool and does exactly what I want”, to a scenario where all employees at our company can use it.
But who knows I might just be a naive dev lol, this stuff is changing too quickly.
> BTW, I think a lot of people were/are greatly overestimating the value of coding to business success.
Fully agree - We already saw dev prices drop significantly when offshore dev shops spun up. I've had great, and also horrible experiences working with devs that could produce lines of code at a fraction of the price of any senior type dev.
The higher paid engineers i've worked with are always worth their salary/hourly rate because of the way they approach problems and the solutions they come up with.
Agents are great at building out features, i'm not so sure about complex software that grows over time. Unless you know the right questions to ask, the agent misses alot. 80/20 doesn't work for systems that need 100% reliability.
Can any OpenClaw power users explain what value the software has provided to them over using Claude code with MCP?
I really don’t understand the value of an agent running 24/7, like is it out there working and earning a wage? Whats the real value here outside of buzzwords like an ai personal assistant that can do everything?
Fully agree with your og comment and I didn’t get the same read as the person above at all.
This is a bizarre time to be living in, on one hand these tools are capable of doing more and more of the tasks any knowledge worker today handles, especially when used by an experienced person in X field.
On the other, it feels like something is about to give. All the superbowl ads, AI in what feels like every single piece of copy coming out these days. AI CEOs hopping from one podcast to another warning about the upcoming career apocalypse…I’m not fully buying it.
Wow, some of those shots are so close to being unnoticeable. That one of the eye close up is insane.
It’s interesting reading all the comments, I think both sides to the “we should be scared” are right in some sense.
These models currently give some sort of super power to experts in a lot of digital fields. I’m able to automate the mundane parts of coding and push out fun projects a lot easier today. Does it replace my work, no. Will it keep getting better, of course!
People who are willing to build will have a greater ability to output great things. On the flip side, larger companies will also have the ability to automate some parts of their business - leading to job loss.
At some point, my view is that this must keep advancing to some sort of AGI. Maybe it’s us connecting our brains to LLMs through a tool like Neuralink. Maybe it’s a random occurrence when you keep creating things like Sora. Who knows. It seems inevitable though doesn’t it?
Humans seems to always find a way to make it work, so I’d tell them to enjoy their younger years and be curious. Lots of beauty in this world and even with a shit ton of ugly stuff, we somehow make it work and keep advancing forward.
