I never use planning mode in Codex. GPT 5.5 loves to research, so I just have a conversation and reach a pseudo-plan in chat. Then, I let it implement, maybe with a /fork beforehand to keep that plan as a revisit-able point. Probably the biggest switch coming from Claude Code

I was getting really annoyed with TipTap + Prosemirror, so I decided to give Slate a try. ...Man, where has this library been my whole life 🥹 This bulleted list demo took me weeks to get half-working in TipTap. In slate, it took a couple hours (with Codex's help)

Everyone: GitHub Desktop is better! No, VS Code! Me: ...I just use `git add -p`. Walks you through each change, hunk for hunk, and lets you accept with `y`. It’s like a mini code review before you commit. Pair that with dandavison/delta, and you get syntax highlighting too 👀

I made a state management library for React. It's called simple store. Goal: make Zustand way simpler ⭐ - Stores are like atom() in Jotai, so types are inferred - You can select nested values, and use *them* as stores too To understand that last point, watch to the end! 👀

A lot of developers are using agents to write their code these days. I was a hold-out... but Claude Opus 4.5 finally cracked me. So, I made a video walking through how I write code with agents end-to-end. We'll talk plans, rules, and everything else in my setup!
