Spiderweb needed a new target, so its spinning a thread to MacOS as we speak.

In other words bought a Mac-Mini and getting it setup and then we port it.

Next up:
Improve the workspace setup process for CLI and GUI
MacOS support (just about to go buy a mac mini)
Better venom support (filesystem services that any agent can use without needing skills, cli, mcps, etc.)
Checking more agents (claude next)

This brings Spiderweb superpower one step closer.

Setup a workspace distributed across machines/OS
- Backend on a Linux box
- Frontend on a windows laptop.
- Setup venoms (services) usable by file read/writes
- CodexCLI/App can work on it all by just starting in that folder

Spiderweb overnight updates:
- SpiderApp (the CLI/GUI client) now supports Windows, Linux and Android (new)
- Spiderweb now works with any agent that can use a folder

Feels like we're hitting a transition point.

The jump from:

AI autocomplete β†’ AI engineering assistant

is happening faster than most devs expect.

The interesting part wasn't writing code.

The model had to:

β€’ understand a POSIX-assumed codebase
β€’ identify platform dependencies
β€’ adjust build + CI
β€’ make it run on Windows

That's a very different problem from "generate a function".

Eleven years since you crossed the black sands. I wish I could say that the world is better than you left it (although it will always be better for having had you in it) but at least there is a new Young Sam to help carry on the Pratchett name and ethos. Love you always ❀️

Steam Community :: Drdoog :: Review for Chip β€˜n Clawz vs. The Brainioids I played 30 hours with my child (less than 6 y/o) it was hard at the beginning but he is really into the character story. We are playing on PC (plugged on a regular tv) with controllers in split screen mode and he loves it. Hoping for new storyline content soon as we finished it all and now working towards getting 5 stars on every level. A really fun game, it’s a bit like tower defense and third person. It does not rely too much on rifles and guns which I like for a young kid.

Nice review of Chip'n Clawz vs The Brainoids.

One of the interesting things that AI coding has enabled, is that programming language choice is largely irrelevant.

Spiderweb's protocol written in Zig, now has Typescript, Python and Go with Rust coming by tomorrow.
PiAi is a zig version of the typescript PiMono AI module

AI coders have taught me a new word "upsert", I've used the idea for years but never known there is a word for it.

Upsert refers to inserting only if not exist else update.

Trump's decision to bomb Iran is now the greatest windfall to the Russian war effort on record. If it continues, it might save the Russian war economy.

America will never be forgiven for inflicting Trump on the world.
I'm not talking about individual Americans who oppose Trump. I couldn't feel sorrier for them. But America as a polity and a geopolitical entity basically stuck a gun in its own mouth the moment it gave this man power.

Remembering obscure syntax in programming languages.

Never having to know where to stick a semicolon is a gift that keeps on giving!

AI coders do very well on Zig, much better imho that Python or Typesript.

Its harder for them to make mistakes, except the odd memory problem and versioning as it still updating.

I'm not a rust fan myself, but both seem to great agent languages afaict

Its a form of RLE which was also used later on to improve sprite performance on PC. Rather than store the sprite image, you store instructions of runs of data + skips.

Yep it took less RAM to draw it than just store a picture.

I can remember the Spectrum game The Hobbit did such a slow flood fill, you could see it do it for each line and slow down on long stretches to fill :)
