I’m trying to place calls with both muse and instinct and they both claim to be unable to do so… is this still rolling out?

37 signals would have called the the Nuse Feed
fun fact: the muse feed was my idea (one of the few things that was) after realizing agents with strong memory recommend content to you in a very different way than existing recommendation systems they’re much closer to a good friend sending you things they think you might like based on what they knows about you, vs a slew of content related to what you just clicked. it’s just the beginning here, but very excited for people to try their muse feeds and see what they do with it!

Yet normies use Google and Instagram and Zillow and Doordash all day every day. Still. Early.
i don't think tech people understand how little non-tech people care about tech the average person does not have a basic understanding of how a computer works the idea of everyone just prompting their own software is only for a small subset of people

Don't call it a private equity acquisition for a huge discount from peak valuation. Call it an Italian goodbye.
All software I've used today has had something broken in the UI I can't remember another time when the average ux was so uniformly poor across the board
hard to see at first
perfect place for a data center

@DavidNewell95 The linear founders are the most high integrity leaders I’ve ever met in tech. They will absolutely do right by their employees. and their tolerance for bullshit is extremely low
Astra is the first model I’ve tried that can read sheet music consistently well btw
TIL that LLMs cannot read music. h/t @taylorlapeyre

Some personal news—I’m joining OpenAI to work on Codex and ChatGPT. I’m grateful to the Linear team for an incredible 4 years and proud of what we've built together. I look forward to bringing everything I've learned there about the craft of software into this next chapter.

Moving house, and I’m finally ready to let these old friends go

people love to bash on tech bros for saving 70% of their income but honestly what are they supposed to spend their money on in Sunnyvale, CA
There’s no force in tech as destructive as the PM promo packet
AI is not "jagged" it is just AI-shaped. That's like saying dogs are "jagged" because they are similar, superior, or inferior compared to humans when it comes to specific tasks.
TIL how the mad lads did theming in Linear. It is surprising.
Thanks! Good question. Theming was the part of the migration I expected to fight us the most, and it turned into one of the more interesting pieces. Some context on why our setup is unusual. Linear themes are generated, not hand-authored: a custom theme is a few inputs (like base color, accent color, contrast), and from those we derive over a hundred color variables in LCH space. It goes further than most people expect: selection isn’t a background swap. When a row is selected, we regenerate the entire theme with the selected background as the new base, so labels, borders, and controls all re-derive against it. Same for focus, menus, and elevated surfaces, each scoped to its subtree by a nested ThemeProvider. That shape doesn’t fit StyleX’s built-in theming that well. Components author styles against ordinary stylex.defineVars tokens, but the tokens are placeholders: our ThemeProvider extracts the hashed custom-property names StyleX generated and injects one CSS rule per theme at runtime, scoped to the provider’s boundary. So essentially the setup is the same as before, just a lot more performant. Let me know if you have other questions.
