Soon every agent will be able to vibe code on the MMT platform, creating server side scripts that can trigger web hooks to fully automate your trading workflow. MMT will be a full agent compatible platform to support the next decade of agentic trading workflows.

@SebAaltonen Apple derangement syndrome.

Why is everybody comparing Intel's top of the line Panther Lake X9 chip with Apple's entry level M5? 16-core vs 10-core? Small vs big iGPU? No mention of similar size Apple Pro chip or the even bigger Max chip? The mid size Pro chip is faster in ST +MT + iGPU than Intels X9...

@cmuratori Splineless behaviour!

Ed Catmull forfeited his right to talk about the relationship between tech companies and artists two decades ago, in case people have forgotten:

@Griff_ @HavenStudiosInc Cool! Didn’t you release gouraud and dot sphere examples for the Falcon? Running on the DSP? I was inspired to try using the DSP but never got past handshaking stage.

2 years later when I was 18 (1991!) we made a production called Hallucinations, showing off full gouraud shaded rendering and a 3D world. This code was unreleased until 2003, when Leon O'Reilly from my EA days and now CTO of @HavenStudiosInc remastered it!

@rsms Seems they threw out the baby with the bath water. One of main selling points of the NeXT platform was ease of development, which carried over into OS X.

App development on macOS has become such a complex mess. To make users able to even launch your app, you need to not only 1. maintain an Apple Developer account and 2. code sign your app (which is a mess in itself). You nowadays also need to "notarize" the app, meaning you send a copy of your app bundle to Apple along with a crypto signature (for your developer account.) Apple's servers then look at your app to make sure it is a well behaved little app and then adds an entry into a central database ("this app with this crypto signature is ok"). So how do you notarize an app? Oh, using the same codesign CLI tools provided by the absolutely massive download that is Xcode? No. You use altool which is kind of hidden inside Xcode (not on the PATH.) But wait, if the current date is after November 1, 2023 (newsflash: it is) you can't use altool. Apple no longer accepts notarization submissions from altool. So what do you do then? Well, you have to download Xcode 14 or later (yay, another 91284747 petabyte of whoknowswhat). Oh but it's not that simple, to run Xcode 14 you also have to upgrade your macOS version. It's like Apple are trying to deter developers from their platform. I was lucky enough to experience the golden years of Mac app development where it was a joy to make apps for your friends. The breeze of Cocoa and the ease of just putting a zip file on your homepage gave birth to so many wonderful apps. No wonder why the average macOS user today runs only web apps — there's little joy left in making mac apps!

@topapate MacBook Pro up to 128GB RAM these days.

While developing FPGA cores, I hit the 32GB RAM limit of my machine from time to time. This PC cannot take more than 32GB. I have a slower one equipped with 64GB that I use when necessary. This is one of the key reasons I cannot use MacBooks for development. Not enough memory.

@bull_genius CGI would be more expensive than doing that for real, also see “Charlie bit my finger”

@DgenFren @Tetranode I heard that Tetranode is a cryptofascist Gaylord.

Tetranode is one of the most toxic mfers in web3. Continuously attacks other communities, flaunts, and disrespects defi community for no reason - I don't stand for that. Blocked me as I tried to talk sense to him, but that's no good to someone that needs professional help 🙁

@IamNomad @cobie Excited people built concentration camps.

@Pauly0x Perineum.

@TylerDurden Yeah, or you can watch it on BBC iPlayer, and other Adam Curtis docs: bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episod…

My annual reminder to watch Hypernormalization from Adam Curtis. It keeps being removed from the internet, here is an infinity forever link - archive.org/details/hyper-…

@ricburton Tim Berners-Lee created the Web, not the Internet, there’s a big difference. Study the true history.

@DanDarkPill Looks like the kind of scam Jim Browning goes after: youtu.be/mPpuUnQ6cac

@Pauly0x ...Let's just throw some more gasoline on the fire and see how big of an inferno we can create. That's progress, right?

@Pauly0x Oh, the world definitely needs more hot takes. Because what we all need right now is more divisive opinions, outrage culture, and people talking past each other. Forget about listening to others, understanding different perspectives, or finding common ground...
