I took Halide’s newly Duo-updated iOS app for a spin to try out the waist-level viewfinder feature, shooting with Process Zero for some added lo-fi flair. It was a good time! But you’re definitely gonna get called out when someone spots it, and the fish-slinging folks at the Pike Place Fish Market don’t miss a beat. They were kind enough to help me test the selfie camera, at least.

We talk a lot about where the computer is, and where your stuff is. Paul Ford, a co-founder of Aboard and longtime tech blogger, recently built a tool called TinyLittleOffice that puts all the stuff in an unexpected place: the URL. Paul joins the show to explain how the web and the cloud have become powerful development tools, what it means to store a document in its domain, and why tiny, disposable software could make a comeback in the age of AI.

An email to staff seen by 404 Media says the Proton Mail owner needs “people who can translate AI’s capabilities into better products, stronger execution, and new ways of working.” It reportedly calls the re-interviews “consequential,” adding that they “may lead to changes in roles, responsibilities, and continued employment.” [Link: Proton To ‘Re-Interview’ Staff About AI To See Who Gets To Keep Their Job | https://www.404media.co/proton-to-re-interview-staff-about-ai-to-see-who-gets-to-keep-their-job/ | 404 Media]

Wintory, the composer for Journey, some songs in Hades II, and many other games, shared tracks he had recorded with a full orchestra as part of “conversations” to potentially be part of the now-canceled next game in the Mass Effect franchise. After hearing this music and seeing the game’s leaked trailer, I think I’ll always wonder what could have been. [Media: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dBO8s_McKjU]

Thomas Dohmke has officially launched Entire after teasing the decentralized coding platform in July. Similar to GitHub, developers can use the platform to host and review code, but it’s designed specifically to work with AI agents, replacing pull requests with a “Trails” feature that offers “customizable evals that are scored by agents on every code push.” [Media: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VFCRvJkgnxA]

Halide III just got its iPhone Duo update with re-worked controls for the new screen formats and a feature that Apple’s native camera app left out: a waist-level viewfinder. When you use the phone in its L-shaped pose the image preview will appear on the top portion of the screen. I was hoping I’d be able to move the preview to the lower half of the screen and use it like a classic Hasselblad camera. It’s a nerdy little detail, but Halide is made by nerds, for nerds, and I appreciate that.
