it's saturday and I'd bet a lot of shop owners are at the kitchen table right now doing invoices and answering the texts they missed all week. that catch-up pile is honestly one of my favorite places to look when we're figuring out what an app should do first
interesting result from simular, a small open model beat much bigger ones on desktop tasks because it got a better interface to work with. I think about that with people too. a new hire with a clean screen and clear buttons will outwork a genius stuck in a messy spreadsheet
@jasonfried the simpler tool winning is something I see with small business owners all the time. they'll take five things that work every day over fifty features they have to remember exist
@DannPetty the textures are what surprised me there. clean flat layouts I expect by now, but the messy hand-made stuff was where these tools used to fall flat
@thdxr curious what broke first. my guess is the agent kept pulling in way too much context from stuff it didn't need, and smaller repos just give it a tighter box to work in
@wesbos the recursive check against the photo is the clever bit. curious how it handles stuff like cabinets, where the scan gets the box right but the doors and hardware are where all the detail is
liked the claude desktop refresh mostly because it's a cleanup and not a reinvention. they trimmed the type system down and bumped the contrast. on client apps the redesign that helps most is usually deleting the extra font sizes and colors that crept in one feature at a time
@GergelyOrosz@Lethain funny how the tool migration everyone grumbled about turns into the thing that makes agents useful later. clean, structured tickets end up mattering way more than anyone thought when they were just for humans
@marclou the part I'd be watching at that volume isn't the app, it's deliverability. bounces and spam complaints are where a quick build usually finds out what the big tools were quietly handling
@dhh agents are great at the boring parts of a bug report like the steps, versions and the exact error. what I still want from a human is the one line about what they were trying to do when it broke, that's usually where the real fix is
@kentcdodds as a user I care more about how fast they fix it when it breaks than how the code got written. but a team that never looks at the code at all would worry me on anything touching payments or customer data
coding agents that build the thing and then click through the ios simulator to check it is a big deal for small teams. I'd still never skip handing the build to the actual owner though. the simulator doesn't know they hold the phone in one hand while talking to a customer
nasa's safety panel figured about 22 tanker launches to refuel starship for the moon, and musk came back with more like 6 to 8. both can be right, it all hinges on how much each flight carries. app estimates work the same way, so I write the assumptions right next to the number
@petergyang@1Password good call doing it now. the step people skip is the recovery side, old phone numbers and backup emails nobody checks anymore. that's usually an easier way in than the password itself
@arvidkahl seeing this on the services side too. the clients who push back hardest on cost are usually the ones who want the most changes later. it's less about the number and more about who you're signing up to work with every week
@heyblake doing our own calls has been the best part of running this honestly. owners describe their problem way better than I ever could, and the words they use usually end up being what I write on our site
@zachlloydtweets this matches what I'd expect. trust gets built one reviewed PR at a time, and if week one is fifty PRs nobody asked for, the team decides it's noise and never comes back. starting small and boring wins
@gregisenberg credit card for compute is the right way to think about it. the boring fix we push on every build is spend caps and a separate key per app, so one leak costs an annoying afternoon instead of a scary bill
@jasonlk same on the small business side. the contractor who answers the weird question in one text gets the job over the one who makes you call back three times. making it easy to say yes is so underrated
