this is just a different flavor of bitcoin mining 0. company offers a fixed prize for a difficult problem 1. individuals throw compute (LLM tokens) to solve problem 2. sum of individual $ spent on compute > total value of prize 3. thousands of $ of compute wasted by individuals, but company receives solution at fixed cost 4. profit

One thing that instagram does really well is quickly adapt to the native iphone experience ie liquid glass makes it feel like a core apple product. like it doesn't really have its own product identity as much as a platform identity, which makes sense considering most users will have either an iphone or an android, and will prefer the native platform experience
Here's what X, Threads, and Instagram look like on iPhone Duo:

props to the apple intern that was fired for proposing to ship the duo folded in the box to save packaging costs

you can JUST build things you can't ship them or get users
you can just build “things”

What if we made CPU clock frequency so high that every program, regardless of complexity, theoretically finishes in one cycle? Are hardware engineers dumb?

unpatched infinite money glitch: if claude can't solve your problem you can repackage it as a reinforcement learning environment and sell it to anthropic

so many gen Zers are like "the world used to be so colorful" no dude you just grew up watching cocomelon-style, colorful cartoons, which over-saturated your memories of how things actually looked

Forget the tiers. Wouldn’t it be great to join one of these, collect your RSUs, survive a few layoffs and retire?

YC startup: it's too complicated, we'll use a mix of claude and chatgpt to rebuild it from first principles

we're really living in the timeline that built AGI on jupyter notebooks and trained it primarily on javascript

rockstar waited too long to release gta6 because claude kept better so they kept using it to build more features but now fable can just zero shot gta6 in a couple of hours probably

sometime ago i had posted that even though anthropic can build slack internally overnight they don't because it's not worth the effort, so they just use slack well they built a new internal version of git, built around agent swarms merging their code, because git was designed for human work, and it became a bottleneck for agents. when (not if) slack becomes a bottleneck for agents it's next on the chopping block. and i think that's how most software will get phased out. agents doing increasingly more autonomous work will be limited by the next bottleneck in the existing software pipeline, which will just get optimized away, by a tool built for agents, not humans. most software will just run headless and we'll just see the final output
