I made my own launch video in plain TypeScript. No After Effects. No animation libraries. No stock music. Every frame is a function of time, every cut lands on the beat, and the soundtrack is synthesized in the browser with the Web Audio API.

AI agents aren’t just answering questions anymore. They’re shopping on people’s behalf. Today we’re launching Scope Journeys for Muse and Instinct. Want to see how agents purchase from you? Book a demo: tryscope.com/ See what agents are trying to buy, follow their buying decisions, and find out what stops them from purchasing. Scope identifies the issue and prepares the fix. All you need to do is approve it. See how it works 👇

An agent's memory can be a folder of markdown files it reads at the start of every session. What you tried, what failed, what you decided. You don't need a fancy app. Plain files work.

SEO tells you how Google ranks you. It doesn't tell you how an AI agent reads your product. Scope shows what agents compare, where they lose confidence and why they pick a competitor. Then it fixes it once you approve. tryscope.com/demo

Most shipping work is invisible when it works. A faster page, a fixed edge case, a form that no longer breaks. Nobody notices. That's the job.

Codex vs Claude Code: I'd rather hear how you split the work than who wins. What do you hand to each, and why? I don't think one tool fits every job.

Vibe coding and engineering ship the same on day 1. The gap shows up on day 30. Day 30 is when you need to change something and can't tell what else it will break. That's not an identity. It's a skill you can pick up.

Open source ≠ free infrastructure. Told a vibe coder my tool is free and he asked how, since he'd have to pay for the X API. Sir, the code is free. The API is not my problem.

A project you can't describe in one sentence, for one specific person, usually stalls. Write the sentence before the code.

Look what they just gave away for free. A map of 19 Bay Area cafes where VCs actually hang out, and every pin is backed by a tweet. 36 investors on it.

How it works: one render(t) function sets every transform. Headless Chrome screenshots 4 subframes per frame over the DevTools protocol, ffmpeg averages them into real motion blur and muxes in the synthesized WAV. 900 frames, about 5 minutes to render.

Agents write the diff. Seniors decide if it should exist. Review used to be about style and bugs. Now it's about whether the change was needed at all.
