This overall is pretty close to how I've set up my implementation skill. One thing I'm curious about is how well the analogies like "We don't make dinner in a dirty kitchen." work vs something a lot more straightforward. Any input OP?

OP here. I don't know, in my experience Claude took "clean the kitchen before we make dinner" to heart in an astonishingly productive way. I haven't tried many other analogies though.

Nice, this looks exactly like what I've been looking for. I tried Fly.io Sprites and it _almost_ got me there, but I got annoyed logging into my CC every new feature. Unfortunately I wound up going all in on Cursor Cloud Agents, which overall has been decent.

Thanks! We were also excited about Sprites when it launched but it didn't quite work for us either. And Cursor Cloud Agents is definitely pretty similar -- one area where we differ is that Cursor only uses their custom harness, and we liked using the actual Codex/CC harnesses directly (and wanted to benefit from any improvements big LLM cos are making to their models+harnesses)

Amazing, this is exactly what I've been looking for a while now, especially the remote dev box part. I'll give it a try, thank you!

Remote dev box is brand new in the last release so let me know if it works... happy to help you set it up (I personally run w/remote dev box) shoot me an email

Hmm, maybe a low-buoyancy floater is better? Helium and a quadcopter.

I'm constantly annoyed how much trouble I have using a .health domain (looking at you T-Mobile). I can't imagine using this many subdomains off a .us.

Amusing that it's on a Tuesday again. TACO (Trump Always Chickens Out) Tuesday.

Yes, markets weren't taking his "normal" market manipulation tweets seriously, so he had to go hyperbolic with the NUKE tweet. I am definitely sure Trump is not serious. That's why Iran said we will continue this discussion with complete distrust.

It is, but he is weakening the credibility of the United States in the process. Never make a threat you aren't willing to back, otherwise everyone knows you make idle threats.

The chicken is always the good part of the TACO. That doesn't make the whole thing great.

It's just another military adventure ending in a disaster - probably the most humiliating in a long long time. But to your point, it's better for the US to admit defeat now, than in 2 or 3 weeks, let alone in 2 or 3 years. If a parallel can be made, Russia would have been best advised to have done the same 3 years ago.

Yes.

But it’s still bad that the US threatened a genocide this morning.

What in anything parent said makes you think it’s not a good thing?

Calling someone a chicken is seen as derogatory.

I too would take issue with being compared with that guy if i were a chicken.

This looks absolutely wonderful. Is it possible to run against Claude remotely (e.g. on a VM?). Or should I ask Claude to add that?

Ask Claude ;) Right now it is hard-coded to run `claude --resume <uuid>` but there's a natural abstraction to use a different script to start the Claude session.

If you're being sarcastic, I love you anyways.

Not sarcastic at all! This is a novel way to handle something that's been in the back of my mind (managing a lot of agents successfully).

A lot of us use software written by other people we have no reason to trust and we haven't reviewed - most of open source libraries.

At least with any open source library I use, many other people have.

Yeah a nice thing about OSS is that they usually come with a community and you can ask questions or even submit bug fixes.

My non-techie friends either barely notice Liquid Glass or go "ooo this is nice!". It has annoyed me on occasion, but I barely notice it any more. Much ado about nothing.

My non techie friends all hate it. I don’t think there is a single Apple user I talk to regularly that hasn’t complained about it, or ask me why it is that way (being the resident tech person for some).

And besides a few odd posts on x, I haven’t heard anyone techy speak positively about it.

Maybe I’m the one in a bubble, but I’m seriously considering switching from Apple as a lifelong Apple user, largely because of the UI changes (Liquid Glass et al), so I don’t think the complaints about it are overblown.

I do think the glass effects do look great in certain areas, like pulling down Notification Center. But I find LG for the most part to be change for the sake of it. Small things like replacing the Cancel & Confirm/Done prompts with larger X or checkmark icons bother me. They take up more space on screen, and honestly they don't always translate well. There are some cases where a checkmark has taken the place of "Done" and I have felt genuine confusion on how to get out of the editing mode or options screen.

This is one of many things that really bother me in iOS 26, after just having updated from iOS 18. It just looks wrong that it's fully transparent until you fully pulled it down, and then suddenly everything flies away. Very strange effect.

Another thing is the border effect on the icons and widgets. I wish there was a way to turn those off completely, but either you get the motion effect or you have permanent borders.

So many strange decisions.

Personally I’m not a fan of the glass effect, but yeah what bothers me more are all the changes around it. The terrible jelly nav bars, the text distortion, the massive buttons with overly rounded corners, the awful switches and sliders, not to mention the design inconsistency through any given OS, let alone across them.

Personally I bundle it all up into “Liquid Glass et al”, but the glass effects are the least of the issues for me. I could maybe get over an ugly design; design is subjective after all. But iOS 26 is just disfunctionally bad design (imho)

My kid just updated their phone recently and came in to show me. They thought it looked pretty cool.

Which is to say, we all have our own bubbles.

My personal experiences are the opposite of this. I have people in my life who are gen Z, millenials, and gen X who are befuddled by it.

We also have data to show people dislike this. Google Trends shows the largest spikes ever for "how to switch to android", "iphone revert update", "iphone fix battery", and "iphone slow", all only after the release of Liquid Glass (and particularly the increased tactics to get people to update starting in September).

I held off on upgrading because I heard how much people hated it. I bought the new XDR display last week and finally had to upgrade for it to work properly and... it's totally fine? I'm not sure what the big deal is. It's way more annoying on iOS than it is on macOS.

I would not even have noticed it if not for visiting this website. It's possibly worse on iOS than on MacOS, but I don't have an iPhone.

Now, if I was developing software for MacOS and it broke all my UIs, I would be at least as irritated as the author.

Yeah I couldn't care less for liquid glass but it's not as horrible as people make it out to be. The amount of hate is irrational. New Coke vibes if you heard of new coke.

Yes, the thing people notice is the keyboard not working.

Supposedly iOS 26.4 out yesterday fixes that. I certainly hope so.

While Wisconsin was debating this, they also closed a bunch of DMVs and limited hours for other ones.

The WI constitution enshrines the ability to vote. So you may think it's silly and for 99% of people it may be silly, but if anyone is prevented from voting because there's not a reasonable way for them to get a license, their rights are being infringed.
