This was one of the longest, most interesting conversations I've ever had with another human in my life. Lots of great podcasts go deep, but @lexfridman takes you to the bottom of the Mariana trench!

Tables proved to be the death of Trix. The architecture just wasn't built for it. But Lexxy handles them with delightful grace. Very excited for this, and for markdown pasting, to come to Basecamp 🤘

Smart houses are so stupid. I've regretted it every single time the siren call of technology caused me to install a computer instead of a light switch, a computer instead of a door lock. And the custom integrations like Control4 are THE WORST. Jason is spot on.

@opencode Another good little example of doing an uninstall mirror script of an install script. Opus did it in 10s. Would have taken me a lot longer to remember the sed syntax!

I love this feature of @opencode where any session can be turned into a permalink. Here's another nice little quick win for the upcoming Omarchy 3.3 unified colors.toml config theme rendering.

What a perfect illustration of the type brain in its most rabid form. Catastrophizing the use of dynamic typing to the point of death. Fascinating state of mind.

I find it utterly fascinating how a $119 mechanical keyboard has managed to bring me more joy than, say, cars I've spent 1000x as much on. Life isn't linear.

One of the longest running schisms in programming is that of static vs dynamic typing. I've heard a million arguments from both sides throughout my entire career, but seen very few of them ever convinced anyone of anything. As rationalizations masquerading as reason rarely do in

Just so damn cool.

We're adding @opencode as a new default to Omarchy 3.3. It's going to have live themeing, just like neovim, ghostty, obsidian, and all the other key tools. https://t.co/B8oqNyGb7k

My favorite read of 2025 was Lars Brownworth's Lost to the West: The Forgotten Byzantine Empire That Rescued Western Civilization. Nothing gives you perspective like revisiting a thousand years of history. Much better than soaking in the present.

Asked Codex if I had missed anything in Omarchy regarding the new Hyprland 0.53 syntax changes to layerrule and windowrule. It looked up the new syntax, found three missing changes, it was right, and I committed the change.

Make it work (AI). Make it fast (also AI). Make it beautiful (still human).

We all have our own little, algorithmicly-curated feeds here on X now, but mine is bustling with great tech discussions, AI adventures, Linux enthusiasm, and generally good vibes. Probably the best X experience since pre-2012.

@lexfridman And those first drafts are improving at an astounding pace. So are the AI ergonomics. Working with @opencode, which gives the agents full bash, web, and LSP powers, has been a blast. Watching the thinking models nail a difficult bug is a revelation. What a time to love computers!

@lexfridman I still write plenty of code by hand. Both out of necessity (the models aren't hitting what I want) and out of joy (writing code is fun!), but I've embraced the idea that getting a good draft really does speed things up quite often.

Just this past summer, I spoke with @lexfridman about not letting AI write any code directly, but it turns out half the resistance was simply that the models weren't good enough yet! I spent more time rewriting what it wrote than if I'd done it from scratch. That has now flipped.

You can't let the slop and cringe deny you the wonder of AI. This is the most exciting thing we've made computers do since we connected them to the internet. If you spent 2025 being pessimistic or skeptical on AI, why not give the start of 2026 a try with optimism and curiosity?

I had no idea that local model dictation had gotten this good and this fast! I'm blown away by how good hyprwhspr with Omarchy is just using a base model backed by the CPU. Unbelievably accurate.

We finished 2025 with FOUR NINES of uptime across all of our apps (and if it hadn't been for the CF outage it would have been five nines!!). Incredible reliability record after our cloud exit from the 37signals ops team 🎉

Fizzy's been out about a month and there's already a growing community of tooling around it. 🚀 I made https://t.co/uNcJpstfhW - a directory of open-source libraries and integrations built around Fizzy.
