This is an appreciation thread for EuterPen, a multimodal music notation system by Vincent Cavez et al. It aims to support the non-linear process of exploration during composition. It's the most sensitive and imaginative academic HCI design work I've seen in quite some time!

I just tried this, and wow does it make a difference when I ask Claude Code to give me status updates, PR messages, code comments, etc.!

Does anyone have a good resource on effective local RAG? I'm thinking about how to set up obsidian to be more easily searchable.

Another Tuesday, another successful pair coding session w/ Claude Code and teammates. Last week’s session gets shipped next week, but it’s basically done. This week’s will turn out similarly We’re accelerating whole parts of the UI roadmap each week while I multitrack other work

Totally game-changing. I’m so excited for DuckLake. We patched in time travel support for Instant SQL so you can easily explore any snapshot of data!

the problem with spawning subagents to review a detailed plan is that they're also idiots, just like the idiot I generated the plan with in the first place

Looking for a good SF based in-person browser tech focusedm meetup to talk about how we push the browser to the limit at MotherDuck. Any ideas?

📢 DuckLake 0.2 is out! We added new features to the specification and improved support in the DuckDB ducklake extension. See the announcement blog post at duckdb.org/2025/07/04/duc….

using Claude Code to plan features I've been thinking about for months but haven't gotten around to designing. We collaborate on the big, ambitious version then carve out the v1 These become 2 md files. Will see if having it read both before implementing v1 is useful

I could see a pretty sick feature of Claude Code or Cursor being some kind of annotated walkthrough of a branch that explains it. I'm writing hybrid plans for both humans & AI right now, and we're interleaving code examples with prose literate programming has a bright future!

If context engineering is the new hotness for engineering, context management is the new UI hotness/challenge for designers.

Largely my experience to date. My team is working on both streamlining code review and making it easier to detect / course correct if something goes wrong. The code the models are trained on won’t get you the code you need in this new paradigm

Who has "figured out" / is solving the code review problem with AI agents? (asking people who actually ship stable, production-grade software to paying customers)
