https://simon-frey.com/ A while back I decided to go for plain text :)

I saw this somewhen here on hackernews, but adapted it, so that it is an actually image, so the image/meme can be downloaded and hotlinked to.

This is basically what you learn in the huggingface smolagents course (months ago)...

They call it CodeAct

Interesting! First time im seeing this course, thanks for the link. From a high level it’s definitely in the same code first agents family then. After reading about smolagents for a bit i think the main things Codecall adds are TypeScript + generated SDKs, progressive tool discovery (readFile + executeCode instead of exposing every tool directly), and the single script sandboxed execution first flow w/ learned constraints, rather than the more of the "multi‑step ReAct loop" that smolagents prioritizes (like in the link below), which is a bit more like traditional tool calling w/ code ->

Build a little screen recording tool which apart from combined stream, also gives you the full resolution input streams (camera/screen recording)

Works only on chromium based browser as it directly writes into files on disk to not loose data. Sry


Shoutout to checkvist.com use them for years. Exactly enough bells and whistles.

It fits my brain of an endless deep list.

Have no affiliate with them apart from paying them each and every year.


TruTruth! I've been paying them for a couple years too, and am still in the camp of "take my money".

Such an efficient to-do list that has progressive enhancement of some sorts where you start out with a list and if you want more features they just kind of are there but they don't get in the way unless you want them. I love how I can do everything with keyboard shortcuts with Checkvist!


"easiest/low tech" would be some sort of unix file-locking and inode. Only works if you are on the same host machine though...AAAND sounds like it would be quite hacky.


Will check this tomorrow. If you come to it in the meantime, feel free to open a PR :) Thx


Works for offline apps as well :) (you would need to download the tabsub JS ofc and not use it from my server)


It means, that you don't need an internet connection for this to work :) (so it is no rabbitmq or so which runs on a server and the browser is just the client)

You can try on the demopage when you

1. play the songs each (for them to buffer a little audio snippet)

2. open the page in a second tab

3. Disconnect from the internt

Still works :D


I'm just asking random questions now and then to get an idea of how things work in the web world. Especially those that aren't mentioned in tutorials.


Which is a good thing :) I am all in for asking questions. If someone can't answer them, it usually means they have not thought about it and are either ignorant or will learn something themselves :D

(like me for your question, as I never tried TabSub with internet disconnected. Was delighted to see it works nevertheless)


But but, you used "offline". I always thought that's the opposite of "online". Looks like it means something else in Newspeak :)


Oh, did not know about it :D Thank you! Added a link to this to the TabSub landingpage


My pleasure—happy to share an alternative. Thanks for making and sharing a thing!
