I just asked codex to look at our last couple commits to build context (after forgetting to save history), and it totally worked! The future is wild.

OpenAI Developers has a new agent framework for building Multi-Agent Systems. Ever wonder the easiest way to deploy with this sweet framework? What if you could deploy OpenAI agents, with just one command-and it just works, and it runs for as long as needed? agentuity.com/blog/openai-agโ€ฆ

I think eventually Cursor, Windsurf, etc will have to eject from VS Code and provide a new UI that leaves behind the assumptions of primarily hand-written code. So much cruft that gets in the way now.

Every so often I see a dude sit in first class while his partner goes back to coach. I think I should be able to perform a citizen's divorce in these situations.

Elite retired old guy Lyft driver today. Born and raised in SF, loving anecdote for every intersection. Only one borderline problematic statement about homelessness, but he reeled it in and made it empathetic in the end. I would have given James six stars if I could have.

A California communication pattern that's tough for me is the "yeahyeahyeahyeah" response during small talk which I believe is meant as a verbal indication of "yes, I am listening to you" but my brain hears it as "stop talking I already know this".

This is actually nicer than it may sound for writing LLM apps. You can write long prompts in an external markdown file and import them without the mess of filesystem calls.

Up at 5:30 to work out at the hotel, seeing an exhausted dad with a happy/chatty 9 month old baby in footie PJs, pacing by the pool. I see you sir ๐Ÿซก
