There is a difference between the "smart" thing to do and what's considered to be the right opinion by "smart" people. Lobotomies were endorsed by elite medical opinion (Moniz won a Nobel for it in 1949). Smart-person consensus often doesn't survive contact with reality. Smart people are as susceptible to groupthink, moral panics, and manias as anybody else.

Microsoft continues to be completely incapable of coming up with good names for their products and services

The Famicom was so cool in a way that the NES just never intended to be. Disk drives, a modem (online banking!), super funky aesthetics for the console and the carts, etc. Very ahead of its time.

You're probably thinking of Mastadon

Adding "trying McDonald's" to my long list of reasons to travel to Japan.

Yeah, I don't think it's a feature unique to open claw in anyway. But combined with the memory of what I have going on and the other personal/business context it ended up being a fun experiment that didn't take me long to set up.

I use it, but it feels half-baked. And seemingly more so with each successive release, often including changes that just break my existing setup. I don't feel like a tool that is ready for a non-developer audience.

That said, it does a few things for me that are useful. I have it run a nightly scan of Hacker News and Twitter for topics that interest me, summarizing the stories and the conversations around them. It's a nice daily digest. It also reads my personal email account, reminding me of anything I need to take care of that day for my kids, bills, or whatever else I need to worry about. I also have it do nightly builds for something random, one with codex, one with a local model, and run a comparative analysis between the two implementations.

I used my employer's fitness stipend to buy a GoRuck GR2, and I have no regrets. There is just a level of build quality that I desperately wish I could find in the other fitness and travel items I buy.

Looks roughly as smooth as it looked on my 25mhz 386

This is the most vibe-coded looking website possible

I feel like we must be visiting different websites.

A CMS is for content authors, not developers. AI making it easier to build or re-platform sites doesn’t change the need for an admin UI that non-technical people can actually use, or the need for access control, governance, and approval workflows around how content gets changed.

If anything, I’d expect more CMS work to occur as the cost of building, migrating, and redesigning sites keeps dropping.

Define “talent”.

Not in my (limited) experience. I gave CC and codex detailed instructions for reworking a UI, and codex did a much worse job and took 5x as long to finish.

Seems worse and slower for me. YMMV

They are incredibly conservative and also very pro-migration. They represent the chamber of commerce wing of the republican party, and nothing about publication should be a surprise to anybody.

When I'm using Claude Code, I usually have a text editor open as well. The CC plugin works well enough to achieve most of what Cursor was doing for me in showing real-time diffs, but in my experience, the output is better and faster. YMMV

That's not what they meant

Beyond the critique of the AI slop, what a rotten message that was. If their goal was to bum me out, they were successful.
