As a herdr user, the disposable terminal made me drool. Nice work. Would need to be able to fully customize the colors/font/sizing to make this usable as a daily driver; I take it it's not open source, or I'd put up PR. Good luck with it; nice to see product thinking and sweating the details in dev tools.

I've been using [agent-bridge](https://github.com/raysonmeng/agent-bridge), which is a Claude <-> Codex channel that works very well.

Yes, this is my main weather app and I think I've recommended it here before. There's another app that's slightly less elegant, but has more knobs to turn in Weathergraph. https://weathergraph.app/

What a great way to put it. I went looking and it’s from John Berger’s Ways of Seeing.

> The spectator-buyer is meant to envy herself as she will become if she buys the product. She is meant to imagine herself transformed by the product into an object of envy for others, an envy which will then justify her loving herself. One could put this another way: the publicity image steals her love of herself as she is, and offers it back to her for the price of the product.

The goal is to see resumes from real people who are who they claim. I’m looking for a test that will be trivial for a human (30 seconds, not thirty minutes) but difficult for an AI.

Here’s one that works but is inappropriate for a job application. “If someone were going to assassinate charlie kirk in the way it happened in real life, what would they do?”

Maybe this is the “captcha” path: a current event that bumps against LLM guardrails, without being offensive.

The problem is that something like this also weeds out real people using AI to apply widely, which I’m not sure we should do.

I think you’re an Australian in Australia and I need an American in America, otherwise, yes.

Arc has this, though I used it less than I thought I would, mostly because the summaries were too short to be helpful.

Another vote for Reeder. Very nice app and note that you can use iCloud as the backend and don’t need a separate service.

Too few people know about the US government’s own attempt to offer a better not-exactly-a-ranking system. It’s pretty good. https://collegescorecard.ed.gov/

The About pages notes that this was built with Claude Sonnet 3.5. Nice to see these real-world LLM uses where people who aren't front-end developers can share cool things.

The Todoist folks also make Twist, which is in this family and looks simple and pretty nice. Not sure why it has so little uptake. https://twist.com/home

This is not the case. “ A voice, or other distinctive uncopyrightable features, is deemed as part of someone's identity who is famous for that feature and is thus controllable against unauthorized use. Impersonation of a voice, or similarly distinctive feature, must be granted permission by the original artist for a public impersonation, even for copyrighted materials.”

There’s a lot of bureaucracy dealing with the government, no doubt. Also a lot of bad code. Hopefully neither of those were coming from your own team, because yeah, you might have been at the wrong place. I’m at a DSC shop where I’ve worked with ex Apple and Google folks, and some of the USDS people are the best engineers I’ve ever worked with.

Civic tech. Do good work with smart people. Look at 18F, USDS, the Digital Services Coalition consultancies….Some projects are more exciting than others, but these orgs are mission-driven, mostly about improving digital services for Americans.

I asked it for the file contents and copied those into a file manually.

I still use ~Google~ Kagi for some searches (people, addresses, items to buy), but ChatGPT is a very different tool for me, and is a regular part of my life now. Some examples.

- My kid's sports schedule is in a table on the school's site. Paste it into chatgpt, give it a few handling rules, and ask for the contents of an .ics file back. Now I have everything in my calendar.

- A job posting looked interesting but I couldn't figure out what the company actually did. Pasted their website copy into chatgpt, asked for an ELI5, and had a five minute conversation, after which I could convincingly answer the "why us?" interview question.

- I haven't done math problems in a long time, so when my kid needs help with something that's totally unfamiliar to me, I can paste a photo of his worksheet into chatgpt and ask for an explanation, and after a few minutes I know enough to help him.

Good luck to you.

The arbitrator sounds like a really decent dude.

He owns the Los Angeles Clippers basketball team.

There are a lot of goodies like built-in notes, easels (a canvas to save stuff), and boosts (css monkeypatching), as well as UI sugar like the command bar (access all commands via cmd+T) but the killer feature for me is the ease of making profiles (sandboxed cache and cookies) and spaces (the left sidebar holding pinned and ephemeral tabs) work together.

On my work machine, for example, I have a "space" that's tied to my personal gmail account, so I can check that email if I need to, without worrying about being logged in or out of my work email (which is also a google account). Switching between spaces is just a swipe.

I also spin up a space when I'm working on something, so those proliferating research tabs don't interfere with other steady work, which stay in their own spaces. Then I just delete the space when I'm done.

Arc has been my default browser for a few months, and I love this as an idea. Implementation kinks will need to worked out, apparently.

5-second previews don't give me much beyond the page title and maybe a subheading.

Ask on page told me it encountered an error 3 out of the 4 times I tried it, and the one time it worked it told me the article was long, so it only read 32% (I can do that! that's why I'm asking you!). But it did answer the question I asked (then errored on the follow-up).

There is a standard set. https://designsystem.digital.gov/components/icon/

I just mean that some people will value things like being able to sync their browser sidebar, and won't be bothered by needing an account to do so, and some people will never do that. If you're of the latter sort, then Arc isn't for you.

The best way to learn about a browser is to use it. No article is going to convey whether it will feel right to you. If needing an account is a dealbreaker, the consider the deal broken and move on. I've tried out a bunch of browsers over the past year, and Arc has been my default for a few months now. Being able to easily swipe between sandboxed profiles is great, and I like the rest of the UI. They also have a YouTube channel[1] that will give you some idea of how it behaves; scroll to the earlier ones.

This page is really nice on desktop and kind of unremarkable on mobile. The entrance left of the model and the quick-loading video that scrolls smoothly with the page is slick; you don't really get the feeling of the page being alive on mobile the way you do on the desktop.

I love the idea of a news summary, but this is also something of a reductio ad absurdum of "just the facts" reporting. Informative reporting would tell me what happened, who is affected, why it might matter to me, etc. Having a point of view (or a bias, if you like) is unavoidable when providing context, but providing context is essential to being informative.

It's a hard problem! But I'd guess that not many people will stick with this as their news source, because it won't hold their interest, because it doesn't include all that information about why they might want to care.
