Last week in Cologne I showed how you can use the GitHub Copilot App and Foundry to build an agent you can deploy across Teams, Outlook or an app of your choice. I also showed how you can integrate our new Decision 1 model for intent classification. I'm interested in agents that can recognise intent and then take action independetly if they decide they can be helpful, so this was fun to show!

Your job is to eat the pain. @aarondfrancis taught us all that pain doesn't disappear. Someone eats the pain. The questions is "Who will eat it? You or your customer?" Or as Aaron put it, "Be the sin eater."

You honestly cant save Framer template creators from themselves... Their time in the safety of the v1 marketplace has completely warped their realities.

Congrats @typesafeai
Jev images is here One question about an image that is 850x850 cost one hundredth of a cent - $0.000096936 about 10,000 images for a dollar. referencing the image more than once duplicates the token usage - so asking two questions in a single request is equivalent to uploading two images

i'm recording a launch video for @getplotapp and this is footage out of my iphone 18 pro, straight out of camera, just a rec 709 LUT applied like the colors, the dynamic range, the sharpness of it. even the light bokeh is working here. what the hell? when did it get this good?

Zimbabwe is negotiating with NPCI International Payments to modernise its payments infrastructure. The proposed system would connect banks, mobile-money operators and fintech companies through shared technology. Central bank governor John Mushayavanhu says talks could conclude by 31 October. The potential agreement follows India’s earlier partnership to develop an instant-payment system in Namibia.

Well done, Cdes. Next time, also sing Nyika Yedu yeZimbabwe! The outrage over Delroy Shewe and Saintfloew singing Maruza Imi on a British train says more about us than it does about them. We have an inferiority complex still standing at attention for its former master. Two young Zimbabwean artists singing it lightly and joyfully on a train, in the very country that once colonised them, is not disrespect. It is pure artistic genius. The symbolism is brilliant. Maruza Imi is not just a song. It comes straight out of the liberation struggle, sung by guerrillas and villagers to mock a collapsing settler regime and celebrate the victory that ZANU-PF and the liberation forces delivered in 1980. It was never meant to be solemn. It was mockery turned into music - a people laughing in the face of an empire that had told them they would never win. There is a quiet irony worth reflecting on, too. That train runs on tracks in the same "empire" that once ran trains through colonial Rhodesia and benefited from our suffering under colonial rule. Meanwhile, you attack and insult your own for their pro-Zimbabwe content while Western creators are celebrated as they film our streets, mimic our accents, dance to our music and turn our everyday lives into content. Nobody bats an eye. Two Zimbabweans sing their own liberation history, and suddenly some of us panic. If you find the incident offensive, then you are publicly exposing your own insecurity.

Watch INVADERS from the hellhole known as Zimbabwe on the London subway signing in their language to oblivious British people “You colonialists have lost.” They are celebrating the conquest of the west via replacement migration. We are witnessing globalist, sponsored colonialism in reverse. Colonialism, undoubtedly built up much of the Third World and triggered a population explosion. Now those populations have been weaponized..

Ok here's another one. @AmpCode orbs can spawn other orbs (h/t @thorstenball for the cool demos) so I can create a main orb to design the feature and then it coordinates and oversees the implementation. In this case the main orb is in Ultra mode and all the worker orbs are medium mode. Then main orb reviews what the workers did, makes edits (or requests them) and commits the changes. You can steer the work as it happens but you don't have to create all the new "chats" by hand. It's all handled by the main agent. In some cases it spawned parallel orbs for separate concerns, then reconciled everything and kept pushing. And for this worked, it paused every time it had a shippable slice, showed proof of work (screenshots of the feature being used in the dashboard app), asked for clarification or confirmation on some of its decisions. And this (kinda complex) feature is now production ready in a few hours, half of it dictated from my phone in between house chores, taking out the dog or putting my daughter to bed last night. Orbs are awesome
I can't explain how magical @AmpCode orbs are. There's this weird effect of knowing that each orb is a unit of work that can be shipped independently that gets rid all the pressure of having agents do work in parallel. When maintaining separate checkouts in your computer, you're always like "wait where am I now?" and you have N agent sessions working against a single history tree If using worktrees, it's basically the same thing but worse because then you go into all the dep installs weirdness but with orbs, it's all seamless. A single agent session maps to a single WIP context so you never get too in the weeds. Orbs just work. Portals allow you run your dev server seamlessly in remote to test things out manually if you want. And the ship button??? It is just too satisfying to use + makes it super easy to keep commits small and manageable. The Amp team did it again. Best of the best experience all around. Great work @sqs @thorstenball and team. It is, in fact, orbin' time
