Ever wondered why they still can't fix Claude Code flickers? Spoiler: It's not because of TS/JS or react! Mitchell Hashimoto (Ghostty's author) explains in this short clip the reason behind that and how Ghostty could address the root cause, enabling even more demanding TUI applications.

🎙️ Our first guest in the AI series is the legend @mitchellh.com 🎙️ We covered a lot of ground and learned a tonne from him: 👻 Ghostty's internals and why tmux & certain shells strip its best features. His path from AI skeptic to cautious optimist.

Karpathy's goal for agents: maximize how long they run without intervention. While individual speed goes up, "system" speed doesn't (the false summit ⛰️). Listen to Ep 309 — Background Agents: fragmentedpodcast.com/episodes/309 where we resolve this tension.

Our LLM explainer (ep 303) got pretty popular, so we thought we'll follow up with the natural progression - How do image models work (in 20 minutes). also... what does Michalangelo have to do with stable diffusion models? 🤔 Listen to ep 308 to find out fragmentedpodcast.com/episodes/308

OpenAI spent 20% of every week cleaning up AI slop from their own coding agents. So they built a "harness" shaping the agent's environment so the slop never ships in the first place. @kau.sh & @iurysouza.dev talk about "Harness Engineering" in the latest ep. fragmentedpodcast.com/episodes/307/

Are AGENTS[.]md files even useful? There’s finally a paper asking the obvious question. @kau.sh and @iurysouza.dev get into the paper, the sync problem, and the small amount of discipline required to stop your agent setup from turning into a mess. 🎧 fragmentedpodcast.com/episodes/306

We almost shipped an episode with a silent master track 😬 Adobe Podcast returned 58 minutes of completely silent video for one of our episodes. No audio. Just two guys miming a podcast. 😨 Here's how we recovered it 🧵

Everyone's talking about OpenClaw (Clawdbot) right now. But what makes it so extensible? Agent Skills! modular SKILL mds that teach an agent how to do anything. We do a deep dive in episode 304 on when to use them, how they work, and how not to get pwned. 🎧 fragmentedpodcast.com/episodes/304

Its really useful to get some intuition of how LLMs work so that you can get the most out of them. This was tricky to do, but I guess @kau.sh and I did a good job of breaking down how LLMs work on a 20min, audio-only episode. I always learn smth when I revisit this topic. Check it out!🎙️

Been a Fragmented listener since before I got my first dev job. Surreal to now be joining @kau.sh as co-host for this new Al focused season! Looking forward to getting into the ins and outs of Al coding! What actually works, what doesn't, and how to think about all of it. Let's do this! 🎙️🤘
