Re:Elevated error rate across multiple models on Tuesday June 23, 2026 @05:56PM (#48652022)
We don't have any client-side telemetry. Conversations with Poolside models are stored, but you can use any ACP agent with pool. And we have plans to open-source it eventually.
Re:Elevated error rate across multiple models on Tuesday June 23, 2026 @05:43PM (#48651885)
With Agent Client Protocol (ACP) you can keep the same UI and switch not models, but entire agents, that means using tools/prompts/compaction/etc that are tailored for the model.

Try Zed[1] for GUI and pool[2] for TUI.

At Poolside we have pool (https://github.com/poolsideai/pool), it runs in a terminal and you can use it with any Agent Client Protocol compatible agent (https://agentclientprotocol.com/get-started/agents).

Nice game. I've built a somewhat similar one (https://github.com/agentcooper/kolya-vs-babushkas), but yours is more advanced and has better graphics!

In my comment I assumed that Clay layout is running in the browser as well, but your idea of running it before serving the HTML is quite interesting!
Re:Eazel, ex-Apple led Linux startup on Tuesday August 27, 2024 @12:13PM (#41369150)
Ken Kocienda's book Creative Selection mentions Eazel several times. Ken worked there with Don Melton, who founded the Safari web browser for Apple. After Eazel failed, Apple organized a job fair for Eazel employees.

Eazel is also covered in an excellent interview (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xImAMe32Itg) from the Computer History Museum.

Re:Ask HN: What desktop apps are you working on? on Tuesday August 27, 2024 @07:56AM (#41366570)
Not actively working on, but last year I made a macOS app to track YouTube channels: https://github.com/agentcooper/telik, I use it everyday.

I also prototyped a macOS app to get a federated feed for multiple Telegram channels: https://github.com/agentcooper/aqueduct. Still wish someone would do it properly.

Re:Clay (short for C Layout) is a high performance 2D UI layout library on Tuesday August 27, 2024 @07:43AM (#41366487)
I wonder if you can get better performance than the built-in browser engine for certain complex layouts by first calculating the layout using Clay and then absolutely positioning the elements with HTML/CSS.

There was some news feed web app that used <canvas /> for better scrolling performance.

I wonder on what the initial suspicion from the drivers was based.

I was tired of YouTube website UI, so I created a simple macOS app to track YouTube channels and playlists. It is called Telik and available both as open source and for a small fee in Mac App Store.

This is not correct. Following example is valid in strict TypeScript:

  interface Dog {
    breed: string;
  }
  const dog = {} as Dog;
  console.log(dog.breed);
Using `as` is very unsafe in TypeScript.

I've collected more quirks of `as` in this playground: https://www.typescriptlang.org/play/index.html#code/PTAEAMEs...
