Nooooooooooooo :(
Built a task app that actually understands what you mean. Idea to MVP in 9 days.
"Call dentist tomorrow" → scheduled
"Buy milk" → in your inbox
No forms. No dropdowns. Just type like you think.

(6/6) The beta is live @ emberbot.com. I'm going to try and find ~10-20 beta users who are tired of apps that don't understand life. If you're willing to use it and give feedback on Discord, I'll let you use it free forever.

Onward!

(5/6) So I started building emberbot in search of bringing a little magic to my todo list, and after four days... I think I'm onto something. My first interactions with it were kinda 🤯
Check it out 👇
(4/6) I want to solve three problems:
1️⃣ Seamless rescheduling when things get nuts.
2️⃣ If you fall off the wagon, come back, say "woops" and have your list updated – automagically, no guilt.
3️⃣ Native coordination with your partner across accounts – a spouse, roomate, kids, whatever.
(3/6) So I started thinking about a tool... a life-aware, AI-supported todo list, a sort of personal productivity sidekick. ✅ Less interacting with rigid web forms, more conversing with a helpful assistant that had a hold on every aspect of your todo list so it could help you manage the crazy.
(2/6) Every app I've tried treats me like a robot. 🤖 'Schedule oil change for Saturday at 2:30pm.' But that's not how life works! Sometimes I have energy on Saturday, sometimes I don't. Sometimes I cut grass, sometimes it rains. Sometimes my weekends are wall-to-wall birthday parties. LIFE HAPPENS.
(1/6) So a story... I've been using todo list apps for most of my life. I have two young kids, a ~2,500 square foot house, 2 cars, and I do EVERYTHING myself. I change my own oil, cut my grass, clean... keeping the workload manageable is a lot. It's a lot. 😫

Claude Code is sick, and I mean that both as a compliment and potentially as a mental diagnosis.
One of the best live performances ever caught on video IMHO. There’s two types of people in this world: people I want to know and people that can’t get down to this.
RIP.
Dear @1password.bsky.social... my kingdom for not having to authenticate my Github SSH key multiple times a day.
I hear stories about people not being able to reliably seed a DB in dev and I honestly wonder how tf those people even work because I probably blow my DB up and start over a dozen times a day when I'm rolling.
It’s funny… I never achieved this on my last product because the pressure for more features always won out, but I wanted to and in retrospect it may have led to more of the outcome we wanted. Limited perfection is often better than unlimited mediocrity, in life and in software.
My only complaint about this is I didn’t think of it.
Yes, I’m watching my Cavs tonight.
Don’t call this “meaningless basketball” or I will be forced to tell you stories of the years between LeBron’s two stints.
If I learned anything about economics from COVID: price fluctuations based on external factors turn into an experiment in price elasticity, and businesses capitalize on this.
He can do whatever he wants with tariff policy. Some of this is going to endure, and your prices have now gone up forever.
It’s a ploy to create an R advantage at the margins in exchange for voter convenience. You cannot look up from the paper that bill was printed on and not see that. They don’t rail against nonexistent voter suppression for the lolz.
But you know all of this, don’t you? You’re a politician alright.
In case you’re wondering how deep the rot runs here in the States, a MAGA friend of mine was still trying to convince me this guy is playing 17-dimensional chess this weekend.
Here’s a chart of how much I want to know this person going forward:
I looked at the futures markets.
I shouldn’t have looked at the futures markets.
The solar eclipse. Still the craziest thing I’ve ever seen.
“Allowed to say”
As a shame-riddled American, this is really satisfying my current masochism. I wonder how long this can go on before even Republicans are forced to check this insane moron. Xi, somewhere, laughing hysterically.
Pie in the sky dream scenario: A few normie conservatives in the House caucus with Dems to temporarily appoint a new speaker and bring a motion to the floor to rescind ALL of the tariffs. Send that to the Senate right now... dollars to doughnuts it passes.
When hell freezes over, I know...
Some random thoughts on software as more people start vibe coding in LLMs:
Imperative coding will start taking a back seat to more declarative coding. Frameworks like @avohq.io will become more important was we “care less about code”, but need it to “Just Work”™

I got a soil test this year for the first time. I knew my soil is not great. The only thing I can grow consistently is moss. Having said that, I didn't expect to have to lay down 115 LBS OF FERTILIZER. I hope this works!
I've seen talk re: this on NT. Love the idea of native client-side validations. I had started mentally preparing to create a custom form builder for this UI kit, but if anything you're planning on doing renders that moot I'd love to know because it's easily my least favorite part of Rails.
Needs better docs, more testing, etc. etc. but... well, I'm just fucking shipping it. I figure I have one more cycle to get to 0.4.0 and then we're going to start using it in its first prod Rails apps. One product spec'd and ready, one getting there.
