Hot tip from one of our hackathon judges: ship early.
Don't polish. Get it in front of real users. If they don't like it — good, now you have feedback. Ship the fix, get more users.
Ready, fire, aim.
You're ranked on installs, not polish. Entries close Monday.
Prucê has won the Hermes Hackathon, by six users.
Vinicius's agent turns a real-life question into research, a comparison and a decision. 57 users, 4.1B tokens, 92% install rate.
Congratulations to Vinicius, Tiago and Enzo, and thanks to everyone who took part.
Four users apart, with hours to go.
Prucê leads on installs. Founder Agent is ahead on tokens. Zoen has a 100% install rate. The 1pm PT snapshot decides it.
Mac Studio to #1, Mac Mini to #2 — and all three are in the running for an invite onto the show with @mojombo.
We're kicked off. 🦞

There's no HR for agents.
So Jesse Vincent, creator of Superpowers, tells them he loves them. The evals agree: better outcomes, faster, cheaper.
He told the agents to tell their sub-agents too. Even better. Even cheaper.
#AI#AgenticEngineering#Leadership
Telling your AI agents you love them = better outcomes, faster, cheaper.
Jesse Vincent built Superpowers. He had a friend run the evals. It's real.
Yelling makes agents do the minimum. Encouragement makes them go further.
