For all my pending issues across my different Claude Code and web apps, I just realized I could (and probably should) use GitHub for issue tracking instead of Craft. Additionally, I could develop a web app to monitor and manage all open issues across my repositories!

Today, I tested Ollama and Locally AI more extensively on my M2 MacBook Air, and it was quite demanding. It’s no surprise that a serious local AI setup requires an Apple M5 Pro or M5 Pro Max with at least 16 or 24 GB of RAM. My M4 Pro Mac mini has 24 GB, and I could use it remotely through an SSH session. This experimentation puts any plans to replace my aging M2 MacBook Air into perspective.

Anthropic Rebuilds Claude Code Desktop App Around Parallel Sessions:

Anthropic has released a redesigned Claude Code experience for its Claude desktop app, bringing in a new sidebar for managing multiple sessions, a drag-and-drop layout for arranging the workspace, and more.

I’ve been testing the new fat client and found it to be familiar yet overwhelming. It’s taking the shape of a full IDE. Monolithic clients aren’t getting the favor of people apparently but I prefer this approach over separate apps.

Creating an email summarizer was simpler than expected. However, Claude AI struggled significantly with email decoding and data extraction. While one might assume these processes are well-documented and easy, that doesn’t seem to be the case. Additionally, setting up a new Gmail account proved to be unreliable. I encountered numerous errors at various stages, making me question whether the process actually succeeded. You’d expect Google to handle this smoothly, but unfortunately, I wasn’t so lucky.

Here’s the overall workflow.

On the Name of Apple’s Foldable iPhone — Daring Fireball

I have no inside knowledge about what Apple plans to name this device, but I’ll eat my proverbial hat if they name it “iPhone Fold”. That name is so dumb it’s what Samsung calls their foldables. You don’t name a device for what it does, you name it for what it connotes.

The iPhone Duo potential name is not doing it either because it denotes a device with two screens or two sides that you fold together.

With my blog’s new custom design in place, I’m considering my next project: developing an email summarizer using Gmail, n8n workflows, Claude AI, and Discord. I don’t plan to use this often, but I do have some emails that I get that I wish could be summarized just by sending them to a dedicated email address.

Inoreader announced support for third-party AI providers for articles summarization. Anthropic and OpenAI are supported among others. Just enter your own API key and voilà! But there is a big catch: even if available for Pro plans, you need an add-on upgrade to enable this! That, I don’t understand because in this scenario, Inoreader is in fact delegating the LLM so they incur not additional costs. I find this perplexing to say the least. Or I might be missing something. I hope someone at Inoreader will catch this comment.
