i bought a nice thinkpad as my personal dev machine. then 6 months later openclaw comes out.
now my primary dev machine is an old ass macbook running linux controlled by openclaw. i just talk to telegram and tell it what to build.
ive been a dad for 3 months. i recently started smoking meats. i don’t make the rules.
i rolled my own crypto. it’s slow as hell. idgaf. might delete later. gn 🌝


i texted my ai a screenshot of an app, with a section circled in red and explained what i wanted changed. then i went and made coffee. it cloned the source code, made the change, committed, pushed, and deployed the fix.


the year is 2026 and i’ve coded from my phone more than my computer.
and by coded from my phone i mean i told claude what to code.
there are two types of engineers in big tech companies today: one who still thinks ai is only good for slop and “real code” needs to be written by humans. the other has learned how to wield ai to generate code to their standards, in a fraction of the time.
use your ai to learn. pick a topic and it create custom tailored plans for you. ask it questions when you don’t understand something. go on tangents.
i dont know what idiot decided we should type on touchscreen phones but it’s a regression. in the early 2000’s i could type on a phone twice as fast without even looking at the damn things. tactile buttons and t9. 20 years later it’s all i can do to type a simple sentence on an iphone without backspacing and correcting multiple words. wtf are we doing.
has anyone hacked full voice support in openclaw? i want hands free mode.
i can think of some hacky ways to duct tape this together but surely it’s been done already?
