There's a claude code section in the claude desktop app, but i've found that www.conductor.build is quite nice too.
Conductor - Run a team of coding agents on your Mac
Create parallel Codex + Claude Code agents in isolated workspaces. See at a glance what they're working on, then review and merge their changes.

haha it's so true. Musk is so evil simply because he is fundamentally unlikeable. Money can't buy you everything.
How much of a loser do you have to be to have the amount of money Musk does and still get left on read by your fellow pedo billionaires

Claude Code enjoyers be like "It's only a little bit of war crimes".
Seems like one of those issues that should greatly concern everyone regardless of their politics.

Please tell me this is about a detective called "Steve Hole" or something.
These fraught times call for a show with what is either an intentionally or unintentionally hilarious title, and which I will be talking about for the rest of the year

Honestly I ain't interested in anything that "no jury trials" Lammy has to say.
I voted for Labour to keep the tories and reform out and they're pulling shit like this, and facial recognition, with no mandate.

I am, but just running a small instance for now until I get paid, then ordering a NAS and some big drives if i can.

That way they're backed up.
