Funny how all these demos are about booking a flight, but I would never trust AI to book a flight for me.

omarchy is the closest any operating system has ever gotten to letting you just talk to it directly to make changes and get stuff done. i still can't believe i can just tell it to create a new top bar widget, change the system font, or set up some ASCII background art as a wallpaper, and it just does it. *older pic from when I first tried it

even though i've complained about OpenAI a lot recently, Sol 6.1 is good. it's reliable, doesn't use too many tokens, is fast enough, and gets the job done. it's not extremely smart, but it's a great daily driver. probably the closest they've gotten to Opus.

I’ve been actively working on my personal projects from my phone recently. - VPS with Codex CLI (remote enabled) - Tailscale + Tailscale Serve to expose the local port via a consistent URL - Galaxy Z Fold 8 using Split View - Termius whenever I need to SSH directly into the VPS

i've started hating this reset bullshit so fucking much. - so i have a reset coming on Sunday anyway, with about 30% left. - they announce that the reset will happen on Friday @ 10 am. - ok, i don't want to lose my 30%, so i spin up Astra and use it for some big refactoring work i was planning to do over the weekend. - there's no reset @ 10 am because their compute power probably can't handle it right now, so they just go completely silent.
Global reset landing tomorrow 10am PST for all paid ChatGPT accounts. Apologies for the slow start with GPT-6.1 Sol, it's now back to running at expected speeds after the massive load spike in the first two days.

So, with all these announcements, which models are you sticking with? Opus 5.5? Sol 6.1?

Funny how we all thought Figma would become shitty because Adobe was going to buy them. The deal never happened, but Figma became shitty anyway.

Yeah, fuck @Figma. They limit MCP requests and want you to pay for them. I highly recommend trying @pendev instead.
today in MCP land ... thing are better compared to a year ago, but also worse.

We live in the future. I woke up, and my watch gave me a summary of my sleep, an energy score, and even suggested an activity for today. I picked up my phone, saw a video link from a friend, unfolded the phone into a small tablet, and watched it there. My AI agent checked my emails and noticed that I’d been invited to a dev conference. It picked out the talks that seemed most interesting to me, put together a schedule, and, after I approved it, added everything to my calendar. I’m going to the beach today. The same AI agent found us a place to have breakfast on the way and reminded me that I’d wanted to stop by a Japanese store someday — and there happens to be one close to the beach I’m going to. Done. I had to quickly charge my car. While I was waiting, it suggested grabbing some snacks or drinks from the Tesla Diner. I could switch on Autopilot and let the car take me to the beach, but I decided to drive myself this time because I enjoy it more. At the beach, while my partner is snorkeling, I can take out my Kindle Scribe, which has around 300 books and a bunch of papers I want to read. All of it in one thin tablet that feels almost like a book. The younger me would’ve dreamed about all of this while reading sci-fi books.

I guess OpenAI made a Dot post the whole response right away instead of usual output streaming because the output speed is extremely slow. So they have to hide it.

Alright, so i've tried a few of today's OpenAI announcements, and i'm honestly kinda confused and may have missed something. Dot. It connects to a bunch of services (Gmail, Google Drive, Slack, etc.) nicely. However, I honestly don't see much difference compared to a regular ChatGPT chat with MCP connectors. I do understand the idea of having a single entity that works as a personal assistant, but I don't really see anything here that didn't exist before. Maybe I just need to play around with it more. It can also connect to Codex, but only to one machine at a time, and that machine has to be running. It also refused to connect to Codex Cloud. Codex Cloud. It is super slow. It takes time to spin up an instance. It takes time to even switch branches, and there's no other way to do it than prompting it — there's no branch selector in the app. There's also no way to expose a running server or use some kind of Tailscale alternative for testing. So I guess the main benefit is that you can work from anywhere, which is cool, but any VPS with a proper setup gives you a lot more flexibility.

How to tell you have no taste without telling it
I am not joking when I say this. Spotify, Apple Music, and streaming in general is over. AI music is now very, very good. You just don't know yet because all AI music circulating today is from ~2-3 generations ago. Suno v6 pro et al has solved infinite personalized music.
