27 minutes? Damn

The camera auto zoom is distracting and you can just share the YouTube video link here instead of the whole video that way you can get more views in youtube

I want X and YouTube to compete for my love. But you're right about the camera, and I fix it a few minutes into the video.

You already shared this in an episode on YouTube dude. It was interesting. What's this now? A continuation?

Dave W Plummer2 years ago

Sure, but YouTube doesn't own it, I do, so why not share it on multiple platforms for a larger audience?

This was a really awesome video! Thanks for the inside tour of Task Manager @davepl1968 What was up with the camera for those first few minutes?

Dave W Plummer2 years ago

Thanks! It's a gimbal camera that is supposed to track you, but it seemed to continually zoom in and back out, which was annoying, so I turned it off!

Can this be a new thing, developers walking through source code on video. I like it!

Catching that bug was funny. We always wait 20 years and still find something, glad to see that this is cross generational 😂

Claude code supports integration with Linear MCP server. This is a great demonstration of human (task setting) and agentic (task completion) collaboration. Writes tickets, verifies, and proceeds to the next ticket.
