yes :) you can pick the path it should run on or invoke in a path that has .claude or .agents as a subfolder, it will then auto-detect and allow you to write collections (bundles).

Hi HN, this is a first for me. I use agents for multiple things, from daily life, fitness, video editing, to (performance) engineering. For some of those I have skills globally installed, because I may need them across different projects. But this means in any unrelated task, all skill names + descriptions will still make it into the agent context [1].
This is not the end of the world, but...
I found this prompt works well to nudge it to use a better grep as the start, then just keep using grep (Cursors instant grep in my case):
```
- For planning, prefer using morph-mcp `codebase_search` - subagent that takes in a search string and tries to find relevant context. Best practice is to use it at the beginning of codebase explorations to fast track finding relevant files/lines. Do not use it to pin point keywords, but use it for broader semantic queries. "Find the XYZ flow", "How does XYZ work", "Where is XYZ handled?", "Where is <error message> coming from?"
```
(see also https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48205911; having higher quality results at the beginning of a thread seem to improve the output vs. having faster search later on).
Have you tried
https://github.com/mksglu/context-mode? I prefer it over rtk / headroom (at least in Cursor). The stop hooks seem to work well / prevent the agent from blowing up its context window.
Just stopping by to say this is great usage of the new APIs.
How does it compare to jpegli?
Also, the vite team in collab with a few others is building
https://rolldown.rs/, to replace esbuild and rollup in vite. It's goal is to be faster than esbuild, with extended chunking options and so on.
I'm not entirely sure if we can really tell anything about esbuild from that comparison, as vite's production build time is 1300ms (which uses rollup), but dev startup time 1100 (uses esbuild to prebundle). It seems like vite itself has overhead.
The only bench I'm aware of was presented in November 2023: https://x.com/boshen_c/status/1719596594985681275?t=x8FaB9Aw..., where esbuild was faster.
Anything for Nancy pelosi?
It tells me that its knowledge cutoff is Nov 2023. So pretty recent.
just curious, what's the difference to the other extensions doing this?
what happens in chrome, where afaik google's dns is the default?
do you know why Jon didn't compare near-lossless in the "visually lossless" part?
the jpegli progress is so awesome to see
When I download the Windows .exe using Chrome, it says "Malicious download blocked", just fyi
I like the idea, it's nice. Thank you
been using for longer now and I still love it the most. Might try Ghost from Vercel, or GHs latest font to compare, but every other mono font didn't come close to the italics and general style
I like your approach and it feels like you thought of everything that is needed for solving the problem your company has. The usage of immer also shows you put careful thoughts into it.
However, I wonder: is your company the only one out there with this specific problem? Has no one else tried to solve this in the react landscape based on the libs you've put in the readme?
Back in the days, when JSON became popular as response type for rendering in the client, I saw arguments such as "the JSON payload is smaller than sending full HTML, so you pay the download only once instead of N times".
Only once, because what has to be done with the JSON has been downloaded in the JS bundle. With full HTML, full HTML comes back in every response.
However, I'm not sure if this is actually a problem or rather depends on how much interaction the user does (so where is the "turning point" of the overhead of having all in the bundle vs full HTML responses). What does everyone think?
Small heads-up, you might want to look at the PRs (I've opened the single open PR) :D
Take a look here: https://github.com/ascorbic/unpic-placeholder. Recently created by a Principal Engineer of Netlify, which kind of server-side-renders BlurHash images, so that they don't tax the mainthread. Maybe the same can be done for ThumbHash (I've opened an issue in that repo to discuss it)
Literally no one who is used to the Silicon valley comp will move to a new country for around half the pay in order to celebrate the Oktoberfest. Wtf.
Crazy results, really interesting experiment!
Idk but, at least from Germany Twitter now loads slower. The comments below Elon's tweet load slow, my home timeline loads slow, even the notifications load slow. Before the "reduced by 400ms" change everything was faster for me (I never understood who perceives the Android app or Twitter in general as slow - NOW I do).
I'm guessing a dev made US calls faster, so that he/she can tell Elon it's faster without mentioning for the US only.
If an official blog post, meant for regular users, lists using the search of Chrome Dev Tools to find hidden content instead of the actual Ctrl+F search:
"in Chrome, you can search from within Developer Tools to match against all rendered text, which would include the text in drop-down menus and other areas of the site."
it is maybe time to change the Ctrl+F search instead of recommending regular users to use developer tools.
