Just discovered Zerobrew, a faster rust-based homebrew alternative. Still experimental but love the direction

I am starting to work on multiple project at same time where i only have one main project in my ide. I tried antigravity which has similar experience but was super buggy. Codex just made it work for me.

Its not about having extra features, but deciding what project needs my full attention vs what i can be sure that agents can do it the way I need it to be.

The new Codex app does something special. It changes the way of working when using agents. And in a good way!

I am sure most apps/ide’s will adopt some form of this

The amount of products I come across in my product launch discovery platform (curated) is insane!

So many people are building things

Two weeks back, I would not have guessed OpenClaw as a service would be a real thing πŸ˜…

I build myself a mobile client for my self-hosted Postiz server. Should I open it to public in app store?

I haven’t got myself using safari on mac yet because I end up missing chromium devtools πŸ˜…
But safari indeed is my daily driver on my phone and I have zero regrets with it 🫢

Yarn is trying to catchup with the rest of the ecosystem https://yarn6.netlify.app/blog/2026-01-28-yarn-6-preview/

Genuinely happy to see this as competition is good for developers

Arc for work, Brave for personal use, and Helium for quick one-off browsing.

What’s your browser of choice?

Chrome just became agentic, following the lead of perplexity and openai, I am glad for once that we have a couple of solid browsers based on chromium

Indeed! 4.7 is as good as using any claude model. Getting really good results with claude code and no slop

I started using GLM 4.7 with Claude code and I must say it’s so good at articulating 🀯

I am a big fan of network request free and wasm based tools, mainly due to privacy.

Came across this today and its a gem. Super lightweight and free to use.

I've been toying with the idea of creating sketchnotes lately and thought I'd do something for MCP...

Think of MCP as a universal adapter for AI. It's an open way to help different AI tools and data sources connect and work together securely and easily – making AI connections simpler for everyone!

Going with bare minimal schema now so I can focus on shipping. And defaulting to postgres for the engine.

I am starting to build a new micro-saas product after a long break with some friends. Hoping to build back the builder muscle and provide value!
