adrian_m··on A farewell to Arc browser
Arc conceptually merges bookmarks and pinned tabs. Non-pinned tabs are cleared automatically, and you just move a tab above the line to keep it. It's so conducive to the way my brain works, it's not an exaggeration when I say it was a revelation when I first discovered it.

Most browsers try to port the vertical tabs or the split view and proudly say "look, we did it, you can now switch from Arc" but none get this tab concept right, except for Zen which regrettably uses Firefox/Gecko as its base.

The ask is to let mathematicians outside of OpenAI use it, ie. at least wait until the model is released.
adrian_m··on Maiao: Gerrit-style code review workflow for GitHub, GitLab, Gitea, others
I don’t quite get the situation. After merging a PR/MR (with the squash feature of Gitlab or GitHub) the equality you describe holds and there’s a nice sequential git log.

I quite like that I can tell my colleagues they can commit whenever they feel like it (and should probably commit more often than they feel like) because it becomes one clean commit in the end anyways.

adrian_m··on New MCP Roadmap
Off the top of my head:

* Your agent can easily be configured to always allow certain MCP tools. This is very hard to do for only certain REST endpoints. This is even more relevant in enterprise settings, where permission configs might be done centrally.

* If the provider wants to change how an endpoint works, it's a breaking change for a REST API. Not with MCP, as the "endpoints" (tools) are dynamic and tell the agent how to use them.
