I'd be very surprised if the very-similar-looking design of corgi's product breaches any copyright law, copyright of design or layout is much more finicky than copyright of code. This seems like more of a moral issue than a legal one.

They're officially yellow. Many people (~50% in my experience) perceive this colour as green though.

> Looking at the OpenClaw model, where the conversation history is in the chat channel and the agent process and LLM provider are both separated from that, you can’t build the same design on Cloudflare or Anthropic

Yes you can - durable objects do exactly what the "Ably pub/sub channel transport" diagram describes. And it's even easier with the cloudflare agents SDK. This article strawmans the capabilities of competing infra.

I use https://rectangleapp.com/ and enjoy it. I have shortcuts to move windows to the left/right half of the screen, and cycle between monitors. This, combined with native cmd+tab and cmd+` is enough for me.

I know that anecdotal experience is definitionally just that, anecdotal. But I've had a handful of attentive London cabby experiences (and enough in-Waymo experiences) that give me conviction that Waymos are far safer than them. They're out there driving all day every day, it's obvious to me that a Waymo driver is going to be safer than even a professional.

One cabby pulled out of a t junction to end up alongside me on a motorbike – a Waymo would never do that.

recently (past couple of months) they've been much more aggressive in the ways that make a good driver a good driver - confident and assertive when they should be. for me this has anecdotally been a massive improvement

If you were choosing between getting into a Waymo or a car driven by a human driver (where Waymo operates, for a route that Waymo would do), the data shows that the Waymo is safer.

it's an application built with webgl that plays audio, rather than just an audio player

media sound is generally unaffected by the silent mode toggle, which apple suggests is only for notifications. but the toggle inconsistently affects media, muting some things but not others. it's incredibly frustrating. android has much better audio controls for notifications, media, alarms, and vibrate.

> We need Claude and Claude Code, with their skills and plugins, with their context, to be first-class participants in our company's Slack. But this problem can't be solved by a Slack integration because of another problem: data access.

Yes it can? We have agents in Slack as first class participants. They can even use Slack search.

I think there’s a difference between what’s expected/acceptable for library code vs application code. Types like this might be hard to understand, but they create very pleasant APIs for library consumers. I’ve generally found it very rare that I’ve felt the need to reach for more complex types like this in application code, however.

RXJS’s pipe function has a pretty complex type for its signature, but as a user of the library it ‘just works’ in exactly the type-safe way I’d expect, without me having to understand the complexity of the type.

> This whole site smells off vibe coded jank.

A vibe-coded double pendulum sim should produce a much better result than the physics on this page. Claude Code made this just now off one prompt, the physics are much better: https://keir.is/swinging

> Previous sync engines really want you to sync all data

Linear had to do all sorts of shenanigans to be able to sync all data, for orgs with lots of it – there's a talk on that here:

I think with good presence (being able to see what other users are doing) and an app that isn't used offline, conflicts are essentially not a problem. As long as whatever is resolving the conflicts resolves them in a way that doesn't break the app, e.g. making sure there aren't cycles in some multiplayer app with a tree datastructure. Sounds like Zero has the right idea here, I'll build something on it imminently to try it out.
