I'd expect to see "The Complete Wired Setup" at a local coffee shop from a dude spread across 3 tables with meta raybans on

Interesting. Android does feel slow; I just chalked that up to CPU. Haven't noticed touch issues, though.

Same! My main gripe is I'd like more Apple-like hardware quality. Lighter weight, better materials, etc. A tall ask, though. What things would you like to see improved?

I like complete edit history and GitHub sync as backup. Just a personal preference.

So happy for ya'll. Very very very excited you're putting some stakes down in open source too! Hugely expands interest imho.

Totally. GH copilot is unusable. Reviewing AI PRs in a web UI is awful. It's just so slow compared to reviewing the same code locally in the IDE+Codex. I suspect some of that is wasted time with container startup on each iteration. But even writing comments in GH feels much heavier weight than CLI.

Does make me feel like "developer experience" will mean something very different going forward. Models DGAF about pretty, they GAF about data/efficiency/etc.

I suspect it's because the IDEs expose different interfaces to interact with code and the IDE tooling, which the models aren't as good with. Less training data, polluting context, etc. The model can just cook in the CLI.
(This is just conjecture. Would love to know if that's wrong. )
