The interview with @lexfridman has already passed a million views in just 5 days! I think people were ready for some white-pill optimism about agents and AI. youtu.be/NYFGCESmikA?si=IGaG…

I posted a clip of you talking about engineers like us and it got like 1k likes and 100k+ views. People really want you to talk about agentic engineering and engineering in general. Talk more boss.

This was so good and inspiring. I was already very optimistic but this was a great jolt coming from you. You even got me to open up dell.com for the first time in years.

All thanks to @MichaelDell and the huge turnaround on the XPS line. I think the 14 in particular is poised to take off in a big way with Omarchy as the agentic OS.

Quick question: why isn't the themes page linked on the Omarchy home page? Is it an easter egg for people who read the manual?

With OpenAI and Anthropic both losing billions per year do you genuinely see anything sustainable and substantial for AI? Will it come down to free open source local models to be useful and practical for everyday users?

Anthropic is already profitable. OpenAI will be soon. Open weight models are amazing. There's nothing to black pill about.

If people had 5 hours to spend to carefully listen to all the wisdom there, it'd have passed 10 million views easily. Loved the first hour !!

I loved it from start to finish. I however found it fascinating that you rank Fable over Sol, it hasn't been my experience by quite a big margin. Keep it up!

The interview is SO good! I’ve been watching it for a few days in and off when I can and now I’m almost done. Came right to this video after I saw the @NetworkChuck video on Omarchy

Hahaha I only managed to watch half so far (and it’s really good).. caught it on a flight to vacation. On the way back I’m installing Omarchy and starting to contribute on GitHub 🫡

Really good listen! It’s really easy to get hyped when you 2 are talking. Still hesitant to wipe my MacBook, but I’m guessing it’s inevitable once I finish the episode.

Your enthusiasm is insanely infectious, it makes me so optimistic about the future of builders.

Dentist here. I’ve spent 12 years numbing people and I’ve never seen a world this numb. I’m turning an old bank into an AI-native practice. Feels like watching rockets launch while healthcare still debates whether any of them left the pad... That “if you’re not recognizing the gravity of the moment, that’s the delusion” line landed like a diagnostic. White-pill received. I don’t feel crazy anymore. If you walked into my practice tomorrow, what’s the first workflow you’d let an agent own end-to-end?
