I did this until I discovered I actually need B-width shoes, and yes it will cramp toes. It’s a pity that most European manufacturers don’t make anything narrower than D-width. Many American manufacturers also no longer do. I’m happy I can buy vintage, but I wish there was more choice.

This matches my own experience with GPT-5.3-Codex – I basically only run it on xhigh nowadays for all coding tasks. With all the speed improvements too, it doesn't even feel that slow, even at `xhigh`.

@cryptopatrick @badlogicgames Go deep on niches that pull you in. If you open PRs on an OSS repo, respect the maintainer's time and don’t submit slop - your PRs should be tight, human reviewed and manually tested. Focus on shipping useful stuff that provide value to others.

The best part? It comes with a new visual indicator for pace, so you don't have to read anymore to see if you're vibing too fast or too slow. Props to @antons for the work! It's the details. github.com/steipete/Codex…

I’ve been spending a lot of time in Ghostty, and I wanted a nicer way to build and run our Xcode projects. So I’ve made a Codex-inspired TUI (fully vibe-coded with Codex, of course).

@rnmp Xcode reported 12s, and I measured xcodebuild at 14s on an incremental debug build. I guess it could be different depending on the tech you use.

@lazy_coll Yeah, made the mistake with an 8MB build log once.

@rnmp Yeah, it uses xcodebuild. About as fast.

@nagendra_rao For ASC, it uses Fastlane. I never had the patience to set it up before coding agents.

All that said, I love to program. I’ve written some pieces of code I’m very proud of. And I care a lot about writing good, efficient, beautiful code. The problem with caring so much is that grunt work sometimes takes too much time and energy. And I’m happy to give up some control to be able to focus more on parts that really matter.

It’s been a couple of months since I read @steipete’s earlier post and decided to give Codex a try. It clicked. My process has changed more than it has in the decade before, and I couldn’t be happier. I started writing code because I wanted to make apps for iPhone and Mac. It has never been the end goal, but a tool. Codex has allowed me to put much more energy towards the higher-level work, without getting bogged down by the minute details. For the first time ever, I can do things as fast as I expect to. For the first time ever, I have time and energy to put into side projects.
