This edition covers August 22, 2026, 00:00–24:00 Beijing time. The scan checked 86 configured public seed accounts, returned 654 posts, found 105 posts in the window, excluded 17 retweets, and kept 10 original posts from 5 authors with at least 100 likes. The full @hwwaanng following list remains unavailable, so this is a roughly 2.2% sample of the intended network.

dotey

At 00:50, 宝玉 (@dotey) recommends using Fable's high mode mainly for orchestration and acceptance, while delegating implementation work to Opus or Sonnet subagents. The attached prompt assigns the main agent requirements clarification, task breakdown, delegation, and result checking, while subagents handle code reading, writing, testing, and batch edits. The post had 375 likes and 41 reposts. 1

At 06:46, 宝玉 describes an ELI5 Skill: a prompt that asks for an HTML explanation aimed at someone with no background, using large images and few words. He says the Skill is essentially that one prompt and may be unnecessary for people who would use it rarely. The post led the day's sample with 888 likes and 144 reposts. 2

At 23:01, 宝玉 relays an argument about the "last 5%" of work. The post compares AI coding tools with a dishwasher: standardized work becomes cheaper, while edge cases, integration, and business understanding still require people. It also argues that a larger software industry could create more of those edge cases. The post had 252 likes and 36 reposts. 3

arvin17x

At 17:35, 空谷 Arvin Xu (@arvin17x) compares Pi's planned database-style direction with the distributed, serverless runtime he says LobeHub built for cloud execution. He says Pi assumes one writer per session, while his own setup must handle multiple workers competing for one operation. The post claims support for roughly 1,000 concurrent agents per user, runs of more than 3,600 steps, and agent scheduling costs 10 times lower than the industry; those figures are claims made in the post. It had 147 likes and 6 reposts. 4

steipete

At 04:26, Peter Steinberger (@steipete) says he spoke at the Agentic AI Summit in Berkeley and that his talk was titled "No Doors for Agents." The post gives the event and talk title, but no argument or technical detail. It had 269 likes and 17 reposts. 5

At 07:36, Peter Steinberger posts, "dropping new skill brb." The post names no Skill and gives no purpose, so it is a short release signal rather than a description. It had 307 likes and 10 reposts. 6

jacob__titus

At 00:53, Jacob Titus (@jacob__titus) posts the line "Fortune made a world of American business. Workers." and a link. The tweet supplies no further explanation; its value for a morning scan is the pointed one-line reference itself. It had 354 likes and 11 reposts. 7

At 06:11, Jacob follows with "Fortune made a world of American business. Machines." and a second link. The post again leaves the surrounding argument to the linked material. It had 132 likes and 7 reposts. 8

turingou

At 17:31, 郭宇 guoyu.eth (@turingou) writes, "Sometimes you have to admire the imagination of these Silicon Valley startups..." The post names no startup, product, or argument, so there is little to assess beyond the reaction itself. It had 269 likes and 20 reposts. 9

At 17:39, 郭宇 guoyu.eth writes, "Building software from scratch is easier than ever, yet more meaningless than ever." The post offers no example or explanation, leaving the sentence as a standalone judgment. It had 306 likes and 12 reposts. 10

Fable 默认用 high 就够了,然后让它主要负责编排、验收,这样是最经济实惠的。 附提示词: > 注意你的主要任务是分析、编排和验证,具体任务尽可能交给 subagent(Opus 或 Sonnet)去执行。自己只做需求澄清、方案拆解、任务分发和结果验收,实现类工作(读大量代码、写代码、跑测试、批量修改)一律用 Agent 工具派给 subagent 执行。

这是一个有意思的 Skill,叫 ELI5,意思是就好比你给 5 岁孩子解释这件事,所以要通俗易懂。生成结果是 HTML 页面。 其实你要是不经常用都没必要去安装这个 Skill,这个 Skill 里面也就是一句提示词而已。 提示词(https://t.co/TKelmhfNq3): 请把我当成对这个话题一无所知的人,用一个包含大图且文字较少的 HTML 组件来向我解释。

响马高见: > 工程师永远不会消失,但是工作方式会变化。工具化永远会进化到 roi 低于人力的边界,然后需要更多的人力来补齐最后的缝隙。 类似于你开了一家餐厅,买了一台洗碗机,一下子替代了 3 个洗碗工,效率高、成本低。这就是工具化带来的 ROI(投入产出比)远高于人力的阶段。 但洗碗机洗不了所有东西。异形的锅、烧焦的铁板、精致的瓷器,这些还得靠人手洗。你可以花大价钱去研发一台能洗一切的超级洗碗机,但为了搞定最后这 5% 的餐具,你可能得投入比前面 95% 多十倍的钱。 这时候你算一笔账:与其砸钱造那台超级机器,不如留一个洗碗工来处理这些边角料,人力反而更划算了。 工具进化到某个点之后,再往前推的成本急剧上升,ROI 跌到比直接用人还低。 另一个角度,工具越强,整个行业的总产出往往也在膨胀。洗碗机让你的餐厅能接待更多客人,于是产生了更多的异形锅、更多的特殊情况,那些“缝隙”的绝对数量反而变多了。所以你可能裁了 3 个普通洗碗工,最后又请了 2 个专门处理疑难杂症的人。 AI 工具会吃掉大量标准化的编程工作,但软件行业的总规模也会因此爆发式增长,而增长带来的各种边界情况、系统集成、业务理解这些“缝隙”,短期内仍然需要人来填。

Pi 今天开始做的这些 「数据库范式」方向的尝试,其实是我们去年开始 agent 转型时候就已经预设好的,而且方向上更加激进 —— 如何实现在 Vercel 这样进程级实例,短单次时长(timeout 可能 300s)的 Serverless 平台上,实现超长程级 agent 的执行。 当时没有 claude code 源码,没有 codex,更没有 pi / open code 框架。我从头开始实现了 LobeHub 现在 agent runtime 这一层,day0 就是云原生友好的。 而且我们现在在我们 Cloud 上已经能实现: - 秒级单用户 1000 级别 agent 并发执行(甚至我们的 eval 是直接跑在我们线上环境); - 我们的用户最长一次单 agent 云端执行 3600 多步,而且正常跑完; - 极低的单次 agent 调度执行成本,可以让我们做到远比行业低 10 倍的 agent 执行成本; 所以,哪怕 pi v2 真正开始落地「数据库范式」,也只是"权威记录"和"执行状态"都塞进同一个 per-lane 的 op log(因为它假设单进程单 writer),而我们是天然分布式的多 worker/serverless 环境。 而 pi 的 non-goal 里写死了"multiple writers"不支持,一个 session 只由一个 harness 进程独占;但在我们的场景下,必须处理多个 worker 可能同时抢一个 operation 的情况,这个问题本身比 pi 的设定更难。 等 pi v2 发布后再过个半年,作者就会意识到 v2 这套架构的局限性。可能又会开始做下一轮的架构升级。 而我们现在已经在往 Long Hornizal Task 和 RSI 迈下下一步了

现在,从零构建一款软件比任何时候都简单,但却比任何时候都更没有意义。
