019: How we're using OpenClaw
In this episode of convos.dev, Jess and Chris dig into how they're actually using OpenClaw — at work, at home, and in some weirdly elaborate personal setups. Chris walks through his team's multi-agent deployment at Resend, his personal Obsidian-vault task manager run entirely over Signal text messages, and the Mac OS "Claudagotchi" app he built in a weekend to babysit Claude Code. Jess shares her more permissions-cautious approach, pushes back on the complexity, and they compare notes on context, cost, and where this stuff actually earns its keep.
018: Our first dev talks
017: On the ethics of using AI
In this episode of convos.dev, Jess and Chris tackle the gray areas of AI ethics — not the big global questions, but the personal ones. When is it okay to use AI for writing? What do you lose when you stop crafting sentences yourself? They get into the guilt of using AI-generated art, whether companies should get a pass on AI ads, and whether "taste" is the new differentiator when everyone can build anything.
016: How to interview to get the job you want
In this episode of convos.dev, Jess and Chris dive into the world of hiring and interviewing for tech roles. Chris shares what he's learning from screening 300+ applicants for a technical writer role at Resend — from red flags in applications to the culture-fit questions he's found most revealing. Jess brings the skeptic's take, drawing on her experience with mock interviews and candidates who game the system. They also discuss AI in interviews, the difficulty of predicting long-term fit, and why hiring is one of the most expensive decisions a startup makes. Plus: a rant about the lack of good AI slide tools, Claude Island, and some fun show & tell.
015: Building A Learning Mindset Framework
In this episode of convos.dev, Jess and Chris tackle a listener question about building mindset (so exciting)! They share their contrasting learning styles: Chris's approach of curating high-quality inputs and using Obsidian as a second brain, versus Jess's ADHD-ish osmosis method of consuming high volumes of content in the background. They also discuss the underrated role of empathy in product work, fiction as a tool for personal growth, and friction logs for improving developer experience. Plus: a dive into the Ralph Wiggum AI agent technique, AI skills for React Email, and some fun show & tell picks. Submit questions and feedback at Convos.dev [https://convos.dev].
