Holy crap that was dope. The music, the colors, the pacing.. just an absolute work of art by 2swap - and from the sounds of the end of the video, many many collaborators! Thanks for sharing!

Sorry, but that's quite an antique take. Modern China has morphed itself into a highly capable society. They make your drones, they make your computers, they make your textiles... and mostly, they do it while providing their people bet

I'm talking of a world in which laws are strong and well written enough that people don't need to worry; they can mash that Accept button and not be getting screwed over. We agree that most peopke aren't equipped to provide i

Sure that happens. But in this case the quality was there - the uppers and attachment to the soles was top notch. They look and feel awesome. But the soles - the shoes' souls - are designed to disintegrate in real time.

I did, but it was because I'd had my expectations raised by Saucony's products (see my peer comment for more info)

In principle I agree; after all they're softer and lighter than most. But my equally anecdotal counteranecdote is that I've owned multiple pairs of the Saucony equivalent (Pro 2, Pro 3, and then Pro 4) over multiple years and gott

Personal anecdote I treated myself last year to some Nikes (Vaporflys) because they looked suave on a friend's feet.. Did 180km of training, maybe 5 weeks worth, and the soles utterly shredded. Couldn't put my foot down level, cor

A lot of value is left on the table because informed people don't give up data. If simple regulation existed - say, "no one can use data for any purpose the user did not explicitly consent to, including product improvements AND in

Yep. Having to type the code is a form of accidental complexity, and with it gone, you can focus more on the problem to solve, getting it down faster. Of course it's possible for it to go off the rails. Consider that a wildly swung swo

Anthropic is scarily good at PR, but not quite as good at honesty about its intentions. Adjust what you read accordingly :/

These structures got old and weren't replaced. This is plain old urban decay. Some places let their old stuff decay and get vandalized. Others tear down their old stuff and don't replace it. But some cities - not all - tear down

TUIs are better for typing centric keyboard workflows; GUIs are better for keyboard shortcut centric . Your desire UX will guide you. People don't expect to be primarily typing into a GUI; they expect to occasionally click something

The boundary isn't code vs specs. The boundary is wherever you let go of determinism. If you can deterministically turn specs into the same code every time, congratulations! But all you've done is made a higher level language. LLM

A vanishingly small percentage of the software in the world has failure modes that kill people. To say the analogy you're making is "only partly applicable" would be very generous..

Agreed in principle although I'd say screwing over is strong as this will end up as just a cost of doing business in Australia rather than lead to losses. Every economy should get value for its resources - no country is obligated to se

The better approach is to stop the LLM in its tracks the moment it emits jargon or tortured metaphor and inject a turn that tells it what's expected instead. The joy of watching a dumb AI-ism be sharply corrected by code you wrote mont

Stoked to soon be able to give these people money. The moment there's a device available I'll be checking closely to see if it meets my requirements. Thanks to everyone who worked so hard to get here.

Nice data! Tim (author) if you're there: it'd be amazing to see the split of which agents people are using, if you have that data.

Why not rip and replace the parts of the readme then? It's like making a beautiful chocolate praline and shipping it in a shoe.

Why wouldn't you use parameterized tests or compose your setup out of fixtures that run the shared setup code? Running a test, then running it a second time, then asserting something else.. is just weird.

What a breath of fresh air. If 2026's Anthropic did an announcement like that, it'd be so many words it'd crash the browser.
