heads up, skills aren't just for engineers anymore!
everyone is using skills, and the whole team needs a place to collaborate on them.
not a code hosting platform. some place a bit more familiar.....
I don't like that new tools are elevating a disengaged way of creating, like a boss who's too busy to care ("Just text your bot while out for a jog").
That we can do this now is amazing! But great work happens with our hands in the clay. The same tools can let us get deeper in.
Our Matic makes me feel the way Apple products used to make me feel. I feel the care at every step of the design.
Highly recommend for anyone who needs daily cleaning for a kid or pet
Introducing Cues: Voice & Gesture control for Matic
We raised $115M and spent 9 years to make the world’s first intuitive home robot
Say you spilled coffee: Point to the spill and say, "Hey Matic, clean this" and it will hear, see, locate in 3D, and go clean on its own.
Matic comes with a lot of features:
1. Say "Hey Matic" - it locates your voice, turns, and looks at you
2. Say "Hey Matic, follow me" and start walking. Matic will follow behind
3. Say "Hey Matic, go clean the living room". Since it knows your house map, it navigates and just does it
It's so easy, a 5 year old and an 80 year old can use it and it understands 75 different languages.
Matic has 8x the airflow, specialised cleaning algorithms for rugs, corners, toekicks, mopping, etc and cleans better than any other robot vacuum.
Also keeps improving with software updates.
13,000 families use and love Matic.
WIRED magazine gave it a 10/10 (the only hardware to receive this rating in a decade)
Buy yours at and if you don't love it after 6 months, we'll give you a full refund.
To celebrate our launch, we're cleaning 300 homes with Matic in San Francisco and New York City.
Comment "Matic" below, we'll send you the link to sign up and come to your doorstep to clean your home with Matic.
In some ways, malleable software is the *opposite* of ephemeral software
Instead of making a new thing every time, use the same thing for everything. Familiar, versatile, universal tools.
We put a program's entire heap inside an Automerge document. Every object is persistent and shared: you and I can live in the same running program — and change it while it runs.
New Livelymerge lab note, with @daningalls and @pvh:
Come to RC on 8/25 for @geoffreylitt on Dynamic Documents as Personal Software.
We usually think of documents and applications as different concepts. But what if we can combine both to empower people to craft their own personal, malleable software?

I finally built my own self-driving, personal CRM.
After many failed attempts and trying a lot different tools/products, I finally ended up with a system/approach I like built on top of Notion.
The best part: It auto-updates, so data never goes stale.
tldraw is by far the best design app I know of. @steveruizok and team are 🐐.
i mean actual design. the thinking part of how to construct an idea. how to communicate. how to pick the right words. defining the nouns and verbs.
Hot take: I think it's still important to understand the code that our agents write!
In this mega thread (based on my AIE talk today), I will explain why that's the case, and show some ideas for how to efficiently understand code. Alright, let's dive in. 1/
I’m giving a talk this week about why I have my coding agents quiz me on code changes, and how I build micro-worlds to understand what’s going on.
What questions / topics should I cover?
