    This is probably the most delightful thing I have ever read about myself. I love it so much. @forrestbrazeal: thank you for *getting* me. Everyone else: read the whole article, it’s great. newsletter.goodtechthings.com/p/crimes-again…

    I know I've fanboyed about Amp before, but it just keeps getting better. This weekend I bought a Mac mini and got Amp to set it up as my new Amp runner + GHA runner. The macOS app is great, and I love the desktop sharing. Subthreads are so good. And now Claude subscriptions too!

    What’s the best way to move 2x elderly dogs and 1x elderly cat from Melbourne to London? Assume price-insensitive and strong preference to avoid putting them in the cargo hold.

    I very much enjoyed reading this. Glad to read something that isn’t about AI every single day.
