Why I stopped wearing my Apple Watch as an Ex-Apple Engineer

We aren't ready for this next generation of agentic engineers. 100k Github stars in 24 hours (claw-code), Yeachan Heo (Bellman) has 3 to 5 pro accounts and ships software from telegram and discord. Those who accuse these guys of AI slop haven't done their homework because the real story is wild and vastly mis-understood. Yeachan has a background in quant trading and developed agentic systems to help with research (and says that LLMs aren't good for trading). He uses the term "agentic runtime" and uses CS principles to treat skills like pointers in memory. oh-my-codex was used to make the clean room clone of Claude Code...in 2 hours...on a plane...over text!! He developed this orchestration layer for Codex and it is powerful. It covers the entire SWE workflow like pipelines, persistent memory/state MCP servers, and extensible hooks. They aren't burning tokens for the sake of burning. I highly encourage you to look at the oh my codex repo and start extracting some of the ideas Bellman uses to ship software.

Cursor can now use Claude “computer use” to use itself. HO-LEE-FOOK 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯

A lot of people are calling Hermes Agent the end of OpenClaw. BRUH! It's not... Nous Research trains actual models and they built an agent around that expertise. The local model routing is solid, but the part that matters for your business is that your conversations become fine-tuning data. You can train a model on how you actually work. 00:00 The Problem with Local AI Models 00:25 Introduction to Nous Research 01:04 Cross-Platform Agent Capabilities 01:44 Deep Local Model Integration 02:30 Routing Tasks to Different Models 03:06 Conversations as Training Data 03:50 Hermes Agent vs. OpenClaw 04:15 Future Plans and Series Overview

Andrej Karpathy posted about the new programmable layer developers need to master: agents, subagents, prompts, contexts, memory, hooks, MCP. He said it came with no manual and everyone has to figure out how to hold it. This video is part of that manual. Hooks are one of the most underused features in Cursor and Droid, and they're what separate intentional AI-assisted development from hoping it works in production. After file edit: If the agent touches Rust code, hooks automatically regenerate TypeScript types for the frontend. If it touches TypeScript, ESLint runs with autofix. If it touches backend code, cargo clippy runs. On stop: When the agent finishes, it runs cargo check to validate the build before I even look at the output. 00:00 The problem: manually verifying AI-written code 00:31 Introducing hooks to automate tasks when files change 01:53 How hooks regenerate types for the frontend 02:24 How to set up the cursor.hooks.json file 04:44 Reviewing a more comprehensive hooks plan 05:48 Comparing FactoryDroid hooks vs Cursor hooks 06:45 Implementing the equivalent hooks in FactoryDroid 07:50 AI agent fixes a bug in the build command 08:27 How scaffolding makes the AI agent appear smarter 09:08 Demonstrating the successful hook implementation 09:53 Final insight: It's about providing guardrails, not a smarter AI

There is finally an app that’ll let me change keyboard sounds so I can stay in full zen.

Everyone's spinning up 50 agents in parallel. The engineer who built Droid Missions told me the opposite: if you can't produce something large and correct with one, adding more just makes it worse. Parallelization is for gathering live info, not building systems.

3 weeks ago: I interviewed the co-founder of Factory AI. The buzz: A tiny team outperforming OpenAI and Anthropic. Using their own models. $50M raised. MongoDB and Zapier seeing 31x faster development. If you heard about Droids but haven't watched the interview yet, here's what you missed. Eno Reyes explains how they're beating GPT-5 and Claude and why it's not about the model itself. Full conversation in next post.
