I tried this, but found it annoying that it will add a slight delay. Totally makes sense if you've been running on caps lock -> escape for a long time. I've bound caps lock -> ctrl and left ctrl -> escape.

I think this could help in the future. This becomes documentation that other AI agents can take into account.

Just fantastic. Hadn't seen it. Thanks for sharing that!

The best definition of art I've read is the one from "What is Art?" by Tolstoy. I haven't read it myself, but came across it in a Van Neistat video recently.

Tolstoy argued that art is essentially the transmission of feeling from the artist to the audience. He claimed that when an artist experiences an emotion and then, through their work, evokes that same emotion in others, that is art.

WARNING! I tried this and it corrupted my entire tmux session, leaving me to have to recreate the entire thing....

Steps to reproduce the bug that broke my tmux:

1. `aoe add .`

2. `aoe`

3. Attach to the session that was added

4. Close that pane with `<Prefix> x` then `y`

5. Tmux closes down

6. Attempt to reattach to any session within tmux: `open terminal failed: not a terminal`

7. `tmux kill-server` is the only viable option, losing all my sessions

Found the bug! I was using three handles to point to the same file descriptor. Fixed in https://github.com/njbrake/agent-of-empires/pull/27, i'll get a patch version out ASAP

Thank you for the bug report! I created https://github.com/njbrake/agent-of-empires/issues/26

Would you be able to share any additional information about what terminal you are using? I saw issues when using inside of termius.

I have https://github.com/njbrake/agent-of-empires?tab=readme-ov-fi... to try to explain how to use it inside of ios termius, if that helps.

Cheers! This happened in ghostty. Also posted a comment on GH.

Bug is patched in version 0.2.2, run `brew update && brew upgrade aoe` to grab the update

I love this. I also built a business like that[0]. It's super niche. I have maintained this small business for soon to be 13 years now. Most of what has worked has been maintaining great relationships with the few customers I have. I think the most important thing for me have been offering amazing support. I always reply to all e-mails right away and make it my top priority giving them my best help.

Congratulations on your success, and best of luck going forward!

Thank you — and congrats to you as well, that’s an impressive run.

I completely agree: in a small, niche business, relationships and support matter far more than scale. Replying quickly, taking users seriously, and actually helping them goes a long way over many years. It’s probably one of the few real advantages solo developers have over larger teams.

13 years in a niche is no small achievement. Best of luck to you too, and thanks for sharing your experience — it’s always encouraging to hear similar stories.

Thank you! I agree, it's so motivating to read stories like this. Thank you for sharing :)

That looks really cool. Seems like it could work for hotels or holiday apartments too, especially if they have smart home appliances?

Thank you! Yes, it definitely could. I haven't thought about holiday apartments.. Thank you for the good idea!

I thought holiday apartments like Airbnb would be the biggest use case when I first saw your site.

Very interesting! What do you mean by personal tools? Do you have any examples of something you've built with this?

Happy New Year from Oslo!

Fantastic! I use alarms to run my entire life. I've been wanting to build something with the alarms for so long. So happy to learn that AlarmKit now exists. Thanks!
