33 years ago today, the Stranger stepped onto the dock of Myst Island for the first time. We can still hear the water splashing against the pilings.
The dock of Myst Island from the original version of the game. A wooden dock ends at a spiral staircase that leads up to giant gears on a hillside. A ship is sunk in the water on the right, and parts of buildings are visible on the left.

My "Future of Desktop UX (part 2)" talk at #KDE Akademy is now up and it's racking up lots of views. I'm excited people want to discuss this more. Now I just need someone with Wayland experience to help me prototype this. www.youtube.com/watch?v=V7Af...

Sure, let me know if you need more info, also happy to discuss this in our demo session tonight if you want to join! The linear version in the tab hovercard has subtle fadeouts of the branches, its just a linear display of all the entries by time with showing connecting lines for direct ancestors.

yes! darc preserves all branch history and there is a branch view when opening history in a tab. its quite helpful for adhd or when closing older tabs to figure out what a tab was used for

OpenCode does not spawn one process per session which is a bit different than most agents it is a single process so even if you have many sessions running they don't need to duplicate resources like your MCP servers

I'm watching this, and sure sure the agents coordinating is neat, but once again, WHY ARE WE CHILL WITH Artifactory HAVING SEVERAL RCEs, SSRFs, and unauthorized writes. Why are we chill with Hugging Face having RCEs. Why are we chill with GitHub having RCEs (unrelated, from April).

🔔 New video on Interface Studies. It starts with a simple question: do we have too many settings? But as I explore some possible answers, a bigger question emerges: is that even the right question? youtu.be/vlsH_HbSrSE

but whether the ecosystem matures and stabilises after this or there will be a truly unforeseeable agent/ ai specific step is where it gets really interesting

There are currently a few very promising agent systems out there: cloudflareOS, opencode 2, radial and a few others. The next phase after this is still obvious (integration of code forges and project management into the agent systems)

if mcp servers implement their own codemode and then your agent native supports codemode now everything is going through an extra useless layer if you insist on doing this plz provide a more raw mcp endpoint

Both have pros and cons, would love a data substrate that has both, sqlite for queries and files to version in git, backup, archive manage and split stuff as needed.
