Offsites and Gem Getters
Hey friends,
This week is a different sort of week! Normally all remote(ish), Viget's entire
dev team is in-person this week for a few days (hence the later-than-normal
newsletter 😅).
It's very easy as a remote worker to feel isolated — remote communication tends
to be much more focused, leaving less space for the type of connection-building
edges and spaces of an in-person conversation.
Hence Viget's [4]practice of TTT's and Offsites. I'm thankful for this — it's
not a simple or cheap thing to organize! But it absolutely strengthens team
connection and unity!
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Interesting Web Bits 🍿
Web Stuff
• Chris Coyier walks us through the [5]power of shape().
• Scott Jehl gives us a nice [6]self-destructing fade-in technique. Which is
fantastic to ensure elements that fade in WILL be readable.
• Daria Nevezhyna shows us some [7]more complex use cases for Rive.
• Looking for a new colorscheme? If you're not already using [8]one of the
best ones, may I interest you in some [9]Root Loops? (Also, checkout
'expert mode') 🥣
• While we're talking about colorshemes, Nikita Prokopov has some [10]
opinions on syntax highlighting. I think I've had bright colors for so long
I don't see the issue in his 'problematic' examples... 🤷
• Watch this [11]voxel creature mutation/evolution simulation. My money's on
the aggressive cube-folk!
• Evan Hahn shares some of his [12]custom scripts.
Other Stuff
• I guess they're putting [13]Steve Jobs on a coin? 🤷
Watch and Play
• 📺 A tiny peek into an [14]iconic NYC rubber stamp shop.
• 🎮 [15]Gem Getter Pro is a lovingly-made roll-and-write with STELLAR web
implementation. I've been hooked on this recently! 💎⛏️

We’re not lying. We genuinely believe our reasoning is sound. That’s what
makes identity based thinking so expensive, and so invisible.

[3]Just Talk To It - the no-bs Way of Agentic Engineering. Peter Steinberger's
long, detailed description of his current process for using Codex CLI and GPT-5
Codex. This is information dense and full of actionable tips, plus plenty of
strong opinions about the differences between Claude 4.5 an GPT-5:
While Claude reacts well to 🚨 SCREAMING ALL-CAPS 🚨 commands that threaten
it that it will imply ultimate failure and 100 kittens will die if it runs
command X, that freaks out GPT-5. (Rightfully so). So drop all of that and
just use words like a human.
Peter is a heavy user of parallel agents:
I've completely moved to codex cli as daily driver. I run between 3-8 in
parallel in a 3x3 terminal grid, most of them [4]in the same folder, some
experiments go in separate folders. I experimented with worktrees, PRs but
always revert back to this setup as it gets stuff done the fastest.
He shares my preference for CLI utilities over MCPs:
I can just refer to a cli by name. I don't need any explanation in my
agents file. The agent will try $randomcrap on the first call, the cli will
present the help menu, context now has full info how this works and from
now on we good. I don't have to pay a price for any tools, unlike MCPs
which are a constant cost and garbage in my context. Use GitHub's MCP and
see 23k tokens gone. Heck, they did make it better because it was almost
50.000 tokens when it first launched. Or use the gh cli which has basically
the same feature set, models already know how to use it, and pay zero
context tax.
It's worth reading the [5]section on why he abandoned spec driven development
in full.
