Clawdbot is one of those things that's really hard to get unless you have experienced it.

It's got four things that make it great:

1. Discord/Slack/WA/etc integration so those apps become your frontend

2. Filesystem for long term memory and state

3. Easy extensibility with skills

4. Cron for recurring jobs

Sure, many of these things exist in other systems but none in a cohesive package that makes it fun and easy.


Or even zellij > tmux

I wanted to believe, but wasn’t able to get most of my config working the same in zellij since it has fewer configuration knobs. Tried writing a plugin, but even those can’t touch much of the internal state. Particularly the keybinds I remember not being able to replicate (smart resizing, respecting vim, context sensitivity):

I wish one of these models was fine tuned for programming.

I want to be able to say things like "cd ~/projects" or "git push --force".


I'll bet you could take a relatively tiny model and get it to translate the transcribed "git force push" or "git push dash dash force" into "git push --force".

Likewise "cd home slash projects" into "cd ~/projects".

Maybe with some fine tuning, maybe without.


You can try VSCode Speech to Text extension that works decently well in Github Copilot chat as part of Microsoft accessibility suite.


Or just enjoy your last days of cd'ing, this shall pass soon!

But this strategy is also eligible to you. Nothing is stopping you from turning your Roth IRA into a multi billion tax free gain.


"Using stock deals unavailable to most people" is the very first phrase I quoted.


There's nothing wrong with murder because you could also murder people.


Damn, I knew when I picked "not billionaire" I would regret it.


This is because of badly organized incentives. What we should do is to implement a tax on poor people. This will make them understand that being poor is less profitable than being rich and they will be motivated to become rich.


I choose to interpret this as satire.


Borrowing against illiquid assets should be considered a taxable event. Seems like this would entirely fix the loophole.


So every small business loan should be a taxable event?


You pay taxes when you are paying off your loan...


Only if you pay it off with taxable income.

If you have a lot of assets you can just refinance your loan with more debt.


This makes no sense. How is lender going to make money?


They still charge interest but at a rate lower than the tax rate of earning it as income.


Really? What taxes?


Rather, you pay taxes on the income you use to repay the loan. Plus you pay the interest on the loan.

This basically defers the taxes to a later date and charges you interest for 'em. Which might be worthwhile, depending on how quickly and reliably your capital is growing.


> Running CI/CD pipelines can use significant amounts of energy. As much as it is tempting to have green checkmarks everywhere, running the jobs costs real money and has environmental costs.

> Unlike other giant platforms, we do not encourage you to write “heavy” pipelines and charge you for the cost later. We expect you to carefully consider the costs and benefits from your pipelines and reduce CI/CD usage to a minimum amount necessary to guarantee consistent quality for your projects.

So much pretentiousness


This seems to have been written in good spirit, addressing FLOSS maintainers.


Absolutely. The limitations of AI (namely statelessness) require us to rethink our interfaces. It seems like there's going to be a new discipline of "UX for agents" or maybe even just Agent Experience or AX.

Software that has great AX will become significantly more useful in the same way that good UX has been critical.


100% of startups are just software engineering


Glad you like it! About to order one now as a baby car!


This doesn't fit the narrative of "Elon bad" therefore the Ford 29k vehicle steering loss recall gets two upvotes whereas the Tesla 6k vehicle dealer-installer light bar issue gets hundreds of upvotes.
