Woohoo! No more bumping into ultra-conservative Claude design limits. Might not be celebrating if/when Claude Design chews through my quota faster than usual, but for now, awesome.

We're on discord! A few of you asked, so here it is. Come and join us to talk about all things talat: discord.gg/WhsaWejN

Oops. We don't talk about what happened there. Everything went perfectly smoothly.

It's no bun rewrite, but we're exploring a really exciting spike which would open up a load of new possibilities on @talat.app

Granola locked users' meeting transcripts. So a web dev with 20 years of experience built @talat.app. The app has a one-time fee of $49, uses offline models for transcription, and allows MCP connections. weekinvoiceai.substack.com/p/how-talat-built-a-local-first-stack

This is a good one for anyone using either of the recently added Apple or Google Calendar integrations 👇

Really proud of the latest talat release and the redesign we shipped last week. Big thanks to everyone who fed back on the old design and helped push us to create something better, and hopefully more futureproof as we head towards version 1.0.0 and beyond.

ICYMI, which you probably did, because both features - which are super useful - are currently stuck behind a context menu click (we're working on this in a forthcoming release)

Who says you don't push to production on a Friday afternoon?

Product Of The Day! 🥇 @talat.app scoops first place on Fazier - thank you all for the support 🙇🏻‍♂️

We've listed @talat.app on fazier this morning - it's nosed ahead into an early lead but we could really use your support by way of an upvote as the day rolls on - registration only takes a second and it would help us out a lot 🙏 fazier.com/launches/talat

I've had no time to maintain Bluesky Boost (chromewebstore.google.com/detail/blues...) in the last year or so. Every time I nervously open it when I return to bsky web I cross my fingers it still works. Amazingly, as of right now, it still does! Note to me: give it some TLC. It's still cool.

wb bsky! Yesterday was a tough day, eh?

Almost couldn't fit the entire changelog in one screenshot this time for the v0.8.0 @talat.app release. We really do need to work on making these *smaller*, which would be better for my heart each time we do start preparing and regression testing each release! Feedback always much appreciated 👇

We're more conservative with our release schedule on @talat.app than I'd like to be. I'd love to be releasing every day. But the risk of bricking a desktop app install is real. I received this error when trying to auto-update my favourite push-to-dictate app, FluidVoice, just now. Desktop is HARD.

Is it just me who is hopelessly incapable of syncing their cal.com availability to reality? Every time I think I've nailed it, and added any upcoming availability exceptions, someone books the ONE slot I immediately realise I can't do. I need a cal.com to manage my cal.com

These small fixes make a big difference - keep an eye out for the 0.7.1 @talat.app update folks

Delighted to get this one out in the wild! The diff from 0.5.1 to 0.60 is ridiculous - it's way too big, making the release a little more scary than it needed to be, but I'm relieved we got there and excited to get it into the hands of our early adopters. Check it out at talat.app

What could go wrong?

We've been really busy with @talat.app, so I've dropped the ball on updates here. We released a small fix yesterday (talat.app/changelog) and we have some awesome stuff brewing for the next release. We've also got a better way of leaving feedback / seeing what's coming up: roadmap.talat.app

Nothing grounds you like having kids. It was a wild 24 hours or so after the @techcrunch.com feature. An awesome, amazing, stressful, wonderful day. Completely immersed in tech and talat. And then, while I was winding him down for bed, my son took a dump in the bath 💩

A little app by little old me just got featured in @techcrunch.com techcrunch.com/2026/03/24/t... I’m blown away. Go, @talat.app 🚀

We ran @talat.app on both Uneed and Product Hunt yesterday. #4 on the latter (so close to a 🥉), #10 on the latter. Hard not to feel a little disappointed with both, but we did sneak into the PH letter by the skin of our teeth! www.producthunt.com/newsletters/...

If you've got @talat.app open you should be notified about 0.4.0 within the next few minutes. Lots of little fixes, mainly focussing on improving the previously rather woeful speaker assignment flow. Still *lots* to do on speakers, which will remain a big focus for the next few releases👇

I'm launching talat.app on @uneed.best tomorrow. Where's @patricegorissen.bsky.social to duke it out with for product of the day when you need her? 👀 @tsanlis.bsky.social see you tomorrow. Can't wait!

bsky have mercy, for I have posted on Hacker News news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4742...

We've had a busy week with @talat.app: talat.app/changelog v0.3.1 is out now. Still in pre-release, still absurdly good value, still seeking more intrepid early adopters like YOU 🫵

I'm chuffed to bits to be launching talat.app - 100% private, 100% on device realtime meeting transcription and summarisation. Think Granola, but none of your data ever leaves your device, and without your every interaction being tracked. The beta launches today: macOS m-series chips only for now

Happy renewal day, kurai.co.uk! 🎈 22 years and still going strong. Probably been offline for half of those, but still. Here's to another 22? (gulp)

I've been migrating the fitIQ.io background processes away from inngest.com to Cloudflare queues + workers over the past few days. Finally all done and very happy so far. I love inngest, but the jump from free to paid ($0 -> $75 per month) is such a huge gulf, and I couldn't justify it anymore.

Cloudflare rebuilt next.js: one week, one dev, ~$1000 AI tokens. blog.cloudflare.com/vinext/ I was expecting a clickbait headline and a useless gimmick. But holy moly. Incredible result, and some really interesting ideas (TPR sounds dope). One to keep an eye on, for sure!

I... was not expecting to learn *that* about Claude Code's internals

My favourite kind of discount

Looks like it's going to be one of those days, internet

For the last few days I've been beavering away on a microsite I've had in the back of my mind for a while now: the fitIQ games. I'm delighted to say I shipped it last night, in time for 1st Dec. Its hello world post could do with some Reddit love, if you can spare it: www.reddit.com/r/whoop/comm...

After almost 3 years using the platform for tens of different products, I've just created and called my first Supabase RPC function. supabase.com/docs/referen... AMA 😎

Ah, status pages. The greatest lies ever told. Supabase is most definitely down. Happy Monday everyone!

Black Friday deals are now live on both DeskVault.app and BlueskyInbox.com - use BF2025 to get 30% off either or both 💰

Looks like it's my bsky bday - Happy Birthday to me! 🥳

I've got Black Friday offers on both DeskVault and Bluesky Inbox, and I've put some serious work into both products recently. Aside from Tony Dinh and Dan Mindru's GitHub repos, where else should I be listing them? All help very much appreciated!

By the way, you can get an early Black Friday deal on a perpetual Bluesky Inbox license - 30% off with code 'BF2025' It's an absolute BARGAIN

Bluesky Inbox now works on mobile! Go take a peek at blueskyinbox.com and let me know about all the awful things that are still probably broken

I finally got around to implementing a feature which has been 'coming soon' for 6+ months... Sentiment analysis on every post in your inbox on blueskyinbox.com All functionality still 100% in-browser. Sentiment analysis leverages the incredible transformers.js: huggingface.co/docs/transfo...

My current gym routine: 1. look menacingly at some weights 2. bark orders at claude.ai/code between sets 3. get home and check out the branch from (2) 4. get Claude Code (on my computer) to review the branch against main 5. shower (sometimes) 6. ship

btw, if this DM notification is real, and not just a meta-notification about the fact I apparently need to verify my age in order to *keep* using DMs... then I'm really sorry to whoever it is who's been waiting months for a reply. I'm not ignoring you. At least, I'm not ignoring you on purpose.

My 2025 gitbox so far. It's been a busy old year...

I still don't believe there has ever been a better trance mix ever recorded on earth (possibly within the entire universe) as Tiesto's Trance Energy 2000: www.youtube.com/watch?v=aQYn... Damn, to have been there on that New Year's Eve in 1999...

Speaking of blueskyinbox.com, you can now selectively mute notifications for individual search terms, rather than having to globally enable/disable notifications when they get a bit too much. Still only $19 one-time. Absolute steal.

Woops. Why didn't anybody tell me my changelog dates on blueskyinbox.com were off by a whole year? 😳
