Someone’s gotta be building Adium for agents? Right? 😂

@linear @karrisaarinen I’d love to have Linear Agent available from the iOS Share Sheet. Would make capturing UI bugs much easier than filling out a form all the time. I share screenshots to Linear somewhat often.

there’s something quite awkward about all the personal agents in the current hype cycle muse, grok bot, instinct, dots, and whatever google, anthropic will come up with none of them is “mine” i’d be trusting a vendor for some of the most sensitive data about me and bet on them handling it with extreme responsibility. what if they have a data leakage incident? what if they hired a wrong employee? what if they simply break bad? i’d also be betting on their model. right now i’ve set up a lot of my stuff in grok bot, but what if their model falls behind? what if another model becomes 10x better on pure intelligence? then i’ll either miss out on a better assistant, or have to bite the bullet and do a full migration i’d also have to bet on their product. they may not build the features i want. they may not allow me to customize enough. and one day my assistant may show me ads that feels like way too much betting than what i’d be comfortable with, if i truly want literally everything in my life to go through and be taken care of by an assistant with all that considered, i’m more bullish on open source personal agents that run on people’s own computers. but i think these open source projects have to break out of the assumption that their users are developers and they can just throw a repo at them and ask them to launch a terminal a well polished, fool proof, community maintained, vendor agnostic, free personal agent that everyone can run by themselves without locking into a SaaS - that’s what i think many people will need

I understand Apple's motivation here. But, what we need is a privacy and security preserving solution to these problems, not just more restrictions. 9to5mac.com/2026/10/02/app…

Personal AI is going to be hugely important, and it works best when it knows everything about you. That's exactly what you shouldn't hand to a platform whose business depends on it. Wrote up why the version that wins is one you own. x.com/i/article/2104…

Hey uh… I get it. Users don’t always love change. But this mess with Codex poorly merging somehow with ChatGPT with a small nondescript explainer popup after the install? No good. No good at all. And I really like(d?) Codex.

Design folks: what are your opinions, pros & cons of github.com/google-labs-co…? I'm thinking about this particular set of concerns and would love to have a conversation with anyone with opinions. DMs open.

The best part about all the discourse about design and code and design and code is that you can just use your judgement and pick the best tool for the task.

@LariLutke @figma Seeing the same thing this morning — I can't search for any plugins. Infinite spinner. Desktop app, everything updated. @figma any solutions?

@thsottiaux Hi! Any chance we can get a functional file tree back? It’s not working after latest update.

@jhe151004 @JamesZmSun Hey, adding on here - feels like there’s something wrong. I depend on the file tree view. I notice in the Mac app that the toggle file tree menu items does nothing. Hoping this is just a bug.

A common dynamic I observe with AI: it feels most impressive when you don’t know much about the subject, don’t care or don’t have a clear idea of what the you want. This applies across design, code, legal, and more. If I don’t know code very well, every piece of code it writes feels very impressive. Once you know what something should feel or look like, it becomes almost impossible to guide AI there. And you definitely can’t one-shot it.

Every multi-paragraph AI-generated slop pitch for legitimately cool tools and techniques on here is so tiresome. Take the time to talk about your work!
