Why 1M+ people trust me

“I work at Microsoft and lead a team of Data & AI Cloud Solution Architects. I have been in Data & AI for 10 years at Microsoft. Nate is the best source of information on rapid changes in LLMs and in fact, I created a TikTok account only to watch his updates. His curiosity, mindset, and wonderful mix of joy and realism is infectious. Highly recommended.”

What I published this week.

Newsletter

Omarchy lets an AI agent rewrite the whole desktop. Here are 8 changes you can make on your Mac instead.

AI is making interfaces cheaper to imagine and build. A growing population of agents will need computers of its own. Enter Omarchy.

Newsletter

You pay for two frontier models and route almost everything to one. Both Mac apps are yours for an email, and the guide walks the verbatim prompt, the 65-check list, the job-by-job casting call, and where my own test was unequal.

And yes, you can download both Shelf and Ledge. Tell me which one you like better and why in the comments!

Newsletter

You keep reopening the same decision at midnight because checking it costs a weekend you don't have. GPT-6 Astra is about to give you your weekends back.

Better computer use and longer-running agents make more possibilities worth exploring. What to reconsider, and how to give Astra the work.
