Peter's been living in the future for a long time. I'm grateful he builds in the open and shares his knowledge. He's helped advance my way of thinking and skills with AI tremendously.
Here’s your monthly reminder that you shouldn’t be prompting coding agents anymore. You should be designing loops that prompt your agents.

"Why has productivity not increased dramatically if everyone is using LLMs all the time already?" ... because a lot of folks haven't changed their workflow. It takes time to re-tool and earn the trust of new methodologies.

Here is Proton CTO's AI manifesto, that I obtained multiple copies of 404media.co/manifestos-fear-

Level 1 is agentic coding. Level 2 is agentic managing. Learn to think in higher abstractions, you've done it before. You can do it again.
If you’re still merging most PRs by hand, you’re behind

Level up to roadmaps & plans instead of implementing features & fixing bugs. Always be able to inspect. "Context over control." Kitchens vs Factories. youtube.com/watch?v=MN9dGgmL

Elaborate agent plans feel like waterfall build cycles, not the small agile loops that give you instant feedback so you can course correct along the way.

People are more of a decision bottleneck than a meat proxy. It’s hard to see 10 decision points down a tree.

Turns out, humans weren’t that great at writing software after all. This spike in CVEs isn’t due to “AI slop”; it’s due to the human kind.

Abstractions build a civilization. Use your talents for work a layer up now. There are still very hard problems to solve.
Linus Torvalds says, rules prohibiting AI usage are “UTTERLY STUPID” and “idiotic”. For the Linux kernel, Torvalds says, “we’re not going to make stupid rules that say ‘you can’t use tools for X’”.

So much signal on X. I don't see how any other platform was built for this kind of speed. When so much is happening, there's only one way to keep up.

Jensen seems like one of the most humble icons out there. They say never meet your heroes. Jensen might be an exception. Watch at the 9:00 mark.
I've been traveling the world a bit. One of the most incredible experiences was getting to visit Taiwan w/ @JensenHuang. It was wild đŸ€Ż.. huge crowds of engineers, insanely good street food at night markets, and of course a lot of good conversations across many days. I caught some of it on video, see below. Alright, that's it from me, love you all ❀ Timestamps: 0:00 - Highlights 0:46 - Intro 3:25 - Computex: crowds, engineers, tech, future of AI 9:12 - Chat with Jensen: keynote prep & nerves 13:03 - Chat with Jensen: Taiwan's tech history 19:47 - Raohe night market 29:37 - Chat with Jensen: memories from childhood 33:44 - NVIDIA party 40:29 - Lunch: braised pig's feet 43:09 - Chat with Jensen: GPUs, AI, and competition 55:07 - Ningxia night market 1:10:14 - Taiwanese breakfast 1:29:54 - Outro

Why would I pay $15/month for your software when I can plan, build, review, improve, host, launch, scale, secure, patch, monitor and debug it myself?

Muse CLI has entered the chat. Building has never been so much fun. Look up from your keyboard and further out than ever before. There's lots to do.

"The aim isn't to do the same stuff with fewer people, but to enable everyone to build MORE and BETTER." 👏
We have a huge pivot underway here at Epic, moving developers around to retool for maximum AI acceleration. The aim isn't to do the same stuff with fewer people, but to enable everyone here to build MORE and BETTER stuff, and to bring the benefits to all teams using Unreal.

I use cross-session messaging in Claude Code all the time now. Can't imagine juggling agents without it. "Tell agent foo to do xyz" and it sends off a message to that repo's agent for you. Best of all, nothing to setup. đŸ’Școde.claude.com/docs/en/cros

To be walking around during the Renaissance is pretty astonishing.
It’s feeling really magical inside of Shopify right now. It’s clearly the greatest time in the history of tech industry right now. I hope it feels similar everywhere else.

When did you say Opus 5.5 was released? Let me check...
