On the unreleased pi version you can go into settings and toggle on "fullscreen" mode. (or launch with --alt) Give all your exciting feedback here :P

Fascinating. Audi's car configurator uses webrtc to stream the 3D view from some remote rendered service instead of using WebGL in the browser. Really want to know what lead to that engineering decision. The latency is awful and the render quality is quite low resolution.

Running Chromium through a sandbox really hammers down the point how much shit it connects to.

Hashem Berzeg We're currently experimenting with having it on all the UI. That said, ideally nobody spends time in the UI anyways ;)

I switched from a quantized Whisper Large v3 Turbo to Parakeet V3 in VoiceInk and the latency is much better.

People of pi: a significant new release, 0.84.0 is out. In settings you can now turn on fullscreen (alt screen) mode. Pi now also renders LaTeX formulas and mermaid charts in the transcript. Also in this release: improvements for Windows support. Also: AGENTS.override.md support!

With the latest fixes in ds4 I can now get it to build and iterate on a little TUI Tetris game just fine. Pretty damn cool (yes, it made some rendering errors)

I'm so in love with antirez' ds4. Patched some slop on it to get better streaming, but I can just install a pi extension on a 128GB mac and it manages everything for me. No need for mlx-lm, ollama or lm studio or finagling pi configs.

My oldest showed his game to his friends who said it's too hard. Instead of making it easier I was wondering how hard it is to have the agent build a really good visual assist mode and a practice mode where it respawns. I love that about agents.

Family record here is 152m on the seed "water". These are my attempts where I made it to 92m. Who can beat it? :)

They are not there, but if you have a beefy mac, Qwen3-Coder-Next has some applications due to its speed and decent tool calling capabilities. This video is in real time. (Also plenty of local models for STT etc.). They are not to be completely dismissed!

And the ds4 SSD caches are great. This is continuing a session after the server was shut down which was already 63k tokens in! Yes, takes a bit to come up, but not horribly bad!

I decided to record a talk on agentic programming and why I'm so damn addicted to this. I think there are a few useful things in it, but I'm sure in a month this will be outdated :)

Papa Mario Zechner is not convinced, but I find experiments with message passing with pi highly insightful. This demos how one pi can send a message to another session and back:

I recorded Claude fix two MiniJinja issues itself. It's Rust (which it sucks at), in a code base not really set up for vibe coding and it still succeeds. Yes, it takes 30 minutes, but it's hands off. Usually I let this work alone and review later.

I'm often playing project manager with a coding agent and it's really nice. Mostly because it helps you bring structure to the thinking process. I got an agent to improve it via github->md->github sync and some tiny UX improvements in pi to fit my flow better.

Codex survives compaction quite well. Which means for massive refactors or "pass test suite" kind of situations looping can work. I tried it for the MiniJinja port over night and it works. Basically /loop tells pi a) continue until "condition" and b) tweak compaction while loop is active.

I'm sure we're all building beads now. I recorded a short demo of my shitty todos extension for Pi. It's modeled after Claude Code's task system with some neat UI integration. It's mostly for single-agent use, but it does support claiming of tasks.

Going to quote tweet my old tweet. The prediction was true for sure. Python packaging for the most part hasn't been an issue for me in the last six months. Even complex shit like open-webui runs within seconds.
