@kurissuuu I am originally from the New York area and it was never like this. When I moved to sf this was super surprising. When I moved back 1 year later, I was even more surprised to see ads on the train. It felt like I never left sf

SF gets a lot of shit for having AI ads everywhere, but honestly NYC isn’t too far behind. On the train alone, every other ad is AI.

@signulll I think i agree except that gui’s can’t be ephemeral (at least in style) because humans will want to memorize ui for each task. That would be like if iMessage changed where the send message button is on every launch.

the future interface is probably three layers: 1. ambient intent capture voice, location, calendar, screen context, messages, habits, biometrics, etc. the system understands what you’re trying to do before you explicitly “open” anything or augments your intent deeply. 2. agentic execution the actual work happens through agents operating software, apis, browsers, documents, email, calendars, workflows, payments, support systems, whatever. most “computer use” becomes machine to machine clerical labor. 3. ephemeral verification ux humans still need to inspect, compare, approve, edit, reject, or enjoy things. that’s where gui survives but as disposable, task specific surfaces generated for the moment.

@theotherelliott Oh my god

@depthfirstsearc We didn’t see it until after the fact either, when it was buried in the history.

This GitHub incident is insane. Merge queue commits have been reverting previously merged commits at random. This not only breaks the mental contract teams have with Git in general, but is subtle enough to be really hard to unravel after the fact. githubstatus.com/incidents/zsg1…

@airkatakana @SupremePatriark Originally I scoffed at this comparison but framed like this I think I agree. It also makes me wonder if it will soon be smart to bet on great entrepreneurs that are far removed from technology to build good software

@SupremePatriark software is easier to scale and distribute but these are fundamentally the same thing and in fact the ease of distribution of software ensures many competitors, who can also distribute just as effectively as you

if i gave you the formula for coca cola right now and told you to go sell it, 5 years down the line you would probably have 0% of the soft drink market share. with literally coke and yet everyone expects ai-coded apps to be in widespread use after less than a year

@yacineMTB Yup. It is laughable the difference in training methods between 1 sota model and the next

There are two leading labs One's focusing on products and product experience The other is focusing on models and capabilities The latter has a small window of opportunity where they can dump their stocks on the public Before it becomes apparent That training frontier models Is ez

@spottedinprod @ertembiyik @iamnalimov Wow

Today Haptics - a playful live presence app rich with shaders and other carefully crafted details - is going open source. We're honored to collaborate with @ertembiyik & @iamnalimov to bring you an interactive deep dive from the SIP blog: spottedinprod.com/blog/haptics-g…

@grugcapital Nuke sf

@depthfirstsearc Neither does she

These people should be put into a cage and poked with razor sharp bamboo sticks for the rest of their lives

@michellezli Yeah this would make sense. Elaborate cheating is common - better to just sit and talk to someone

@michellezli Hmmm - I think quant recruiting is networking but with students instead of current employees. Question banks gated behind elusive clubs or getting the DL about an interview before you take it is super common

@BrettFromDJ Design is hard if you are good, and easy if you aren’t

Many such founders will make this mistake. They’ll favor speed and budget over quality and conversion, and end up with a white paper versus an actual landing page. Then they’ll wonder why their conversions dropped, and eventually come running back to designers.

@densumesh This is so fucking sick

@gabriel1 Market street equinox? 2nd floor?

realized the door im running in front of every day of is anthropics office let's see attendance on a saturday

@Gurveersingh299 Weird you didn’t think to check in with me before entering my city

I understand why people love this city so much. Who's here right now?

@conconconling Yes

the founding engineer math today is entirely broken -- compared to options like joining one of the top frontier labs that seem to be on track for world domination and founding one's own company leveraging the abundant early-stage funding market, getting 1% working for someone else is understandably unappealing founders must create stronger / more novel incentive structures to have even a shot to win in the talent war: raise less dilutive early funding rounds and reserve more equity for hires, offer commissions / profit shares for customer contracts, offer significantly above-market equity to attract mission-aligned contributors...

I want to be able to react to lines of code in a PR on graphite. Like heart react a really beautiful segment

@tonybruess This is awesome

🌺 My boyfriend's parents booked their regular holiday flights to Hawaii. What happened next is exactly the type of magic we're seeing daily at Arden HQ. Arden imported their itinerary and started optimizing. A few days later it flagged an opportunity: if they added one day to each end of the trip, the price dropped by more than half. They approved the change with a single text. 👍 Arden rebooked the flights. They got over $5,000 back. 😎 🤑 They didn't search for that. They didn't know to look for it. They just... got a text that said "hey, I found something." 💡 Here's what's different about Arden and why I'm so excited about what we're building: it's not a tool you have to remember to open. It's not a website you have to check. It's a proactive agent that is always running in the background, always watching your trips, always looking for opportunities you'd never think to look for yourself. Most travel apps are reactive. You go to them when you have a problem. Arden is proactive. It comes to you. Before the problem, before the missed opportunity, before the money is already spent. So what are you waiting for?

@tadasgedgaudas @cursor_ai Tsgo?

@cursor_ai also Cursor:

Cursor can now search millions of files and find results in milliseconds. This dramatically speeds up how fast agents complete tasks. We're sharing how we built Instant Grep, including the algorithms and tradeoffs behind the design.
