Are you saying you aren’t using AI?

Some. /plugin can install a couple. The rest are on github.

A friend did as well and has been happy. Very tempted but so hard not to want to max out. Also the nano texture would be awesome for me. Air doesn’t have that yet right?

Same. I have M1 Max with 64GB of ram. Granted I’m never using it all. CPU is usually the issue.

/frontend-design, /simplify, /review, and /commit-commands:commit-push-pr are currently my favorite claude skills. Would love to know of any sick ones I'm missing. Also enjoyed the research results of /last30days a few times yesterday.

I can't decide if I want a new m5 maxed out or an air + light second screen for on the go + a beefy server sitting somewhere on the internet.

Building your own bespoke git worktree tool is the new build a blog of the late 2000's.

Haha. For the pod or me?

Home Establishing standards and practices that improve the open podcasting ecosystem for both listeners and creators.

Fireside now sends real-time feed notifications via Podping and WebSub. I think this was the last piece of our podcast standards implementation (podstandards.org). Apps in the Podcast Index ecosystem now get notified instantly. Nice little Thursday ship.

Of course I httparty'd the whole time. 🎉

Rails Business Podcast (again) How AI has changed my day-to-day as a developer.

I joined brendan and ryan on the rails business podcast again to talk about AI.

Having some fun with the verygoodsoftware dot company site today. Be sure to click the logo and see what else you can do. Haha.

Conductor and Superset update. I find I'm using superset for quick and dirty stuff on main or a branch (less for worktrees). For example, it's super fast to just crank out flipper gem updates on 5 apps at once. For anything I do longer feature work on, conductor is nicer (when performance is ok).

Today is upgrade all the apps to Flipper 1.4 day. Most people are probably excited about the time based feature stuff or making flags depend on other flags. Personally, I'm excited about the smarter syncing with etags and all that jazz. :D

The Flipper gem is amazing, here's how we extended it the Martian way—Martian Chronicles, Evil Martians’ team blog A deep dive extending Flipper in Rails: friendly actor IDs, team-wide flags, percentage rollouts, analytics events, and admin auditing.

"It’s a breeze to incorporate into a project: add the gem, run a command to generate a migration, mount a web interface, add a link, and write some wiring code to replace your solution with Flipper under the facade and you’re done. Easy-peasy, lemon squeezy!"

I'm a big sucker for quotes related to action.

"Action produces information. If you’re unsure of what to do, just do anything, even if it’s the wrong thing. This will give you information about what you should actually be doing." ​- Brian Armstrong

Sweet! Todoist has an mcp that works quite well. Hopefully I'll spend less time on copy/paste and finding the todo I need to mark completed.

claude mcp add --transport http todoist ai.todoist.net/mcp

Then claude > /mcp > pick todoist and auth it

The conductor update last night has fixed my rate limiting issues for now. Hopefully I'm not speaking too soon. For now, I SHIP. 😎

I tried it. It’s real early and specific.

Cmux beach balled on me for a minute at a time a handful of times per day.

Haven’t heard of it. Will do

- clicking on workspace gives me claudes, terminal, setup/teardown hooks, consistent port range to use and github flow (link PR is enough, claude does the rest).

What's out there? Do I have to build something? Please say no... :D

I've heard of superset, didn't love it first run. Also saw worktrunk (all TUI which I'm kind of meh on, I like pretty mac apps and clicking).

I want:

- workspaces on the left with a few pinned that I'm actively working on

I thought maybe I could manually set status, but conductor randomly overrides my override unless I use backlog. But putting active things in backlog just feels wrong. Tried putting them in "done" but they bounce back to in review or in progress due to rate limits.

That's further scrambling because now I have to remember which app I was in for which work I'm getting done.

Eventually rate limit resets and they jump back to correct status (even more jarring because I got use to them in wrong spot). It's legit scrambling my brain. Now I'm starting to try cmux (beach balls for me non-zero number of times an hour) and use ghostty again.

It's so jarring when they bounce around.

The past week, it's completely consuming my GitHub graphql rate limits in no time (15-20 minutes???) and then all the "in review" status move back to "in progress" like they have no memory that a PR exists. Create PR button comes back (but PR already exists).

I praised conductor like crazy so its only fair I bring up issues with as well. The past 2 weeks I can barely use it.

At first it was performance issues and huge lag when typing or clicking.

Flipper 1.4.0 Dearest feature flagger, I come today bearing a big one. 1.4.0 is here and it's got some real goodies. Let's get into it. Time-Based Expressions Let's lead with the fire on this one. You can now schedule features to turn on or off at specific times using expressions.

Flipper 1.4.0 just dropped. Time-based expressions (release this feature on April 1st), feature dependencies (flag A requires flag B), and one-click or one-command migration to Cloud.

Finally upgraded the home mic. Should have before the podcasts I did the past week. Shure MV7+. Im fine with USB-C for now. Sounds great with very few tweaks
