@maximzhestkov @fun_and_awe some interfaces are better than others. i wouldn't want a chat interface for browsing movies. I wouldn't want this interface for writing. sometimes buttons and menus are the right abstraction. this interface is cool AF tho 😎

I believe that the interfaces of the future will disappear. Instead of buttons and menus, we will interact with objects. The process itself becomes the feedback. Building software is always a complex craft, but spatial computing is a different beast entirely. It demands a fusion of visual art, logic, and spatial UI where every interaction happens in the air around you. With OPERATOR, built for Apple Vision Pro, we explored this by turning music into a sculpture. The music track isn't a timeline anymore; it’s a 3D object you can walk around, touch, and modify from any angle.

@LowLevelTweets @XFreeze someone ask him what happens when he wants to make a change to some non trivial program... maybe he imagines AI will just flip some of the bits 😅

@XFreeze Wow this is probably the dumbest thing I’ve read so far this year. Congrats! 🎉

Elon Musk predicts that AI will bypass coding entirely by the end of 2026 - just creates the binary directly AI can create a much more efficient binary than can be done by any compiler So just say, "Create optimized binary for this particular outcome," and you actually bypass even traditional coding Current: Code → Compiler → Binary → Execute Future: Prompt → AI-generated Binary → Execute Grok Code is going to be state-of-the-art in 2–3 months Software development is about to fundamentally change

@filpizlo fuck yeah 😎👏

listen here fuckers this is a memory safe web browser you're welcome

If LLMs are good for anything it's probably making total fucking noobs finally realize that Programming was never about Typing Text. :)

@lauriewired @yacinelearning this assumes IR is the bottleneck, but IRL it's FE, too much incidental complexity emerges from nice-to-haves and over-optimizing for expressiveness. since it's non deterministic, i imagine it's regression prone and probably has poor scaling properties.

@yacinelearning just gonna drop this here: arxiv.org/pdf/2407.02524

“I think we should use LLMs as compilers”

@rauchg @juanbenet hah, @mikeal would have definitely liked the domain name 😅 🥰

We’re organizing an-event-mikeal-would-have-liked.com — a “conf” in loving memory of Mikeal. To contribute, please buy a ticket to join our fundraiser in SF, or make a donation. I’ll be auctioning off G coding classes to highest bidder 😁 Proceeds go to his family & 2 children, Kora & Kai.

@joshmanders relevant — github.com/linux-surface/…

Finally a linux machine that doesn't look hideous

@thdxr deno wasn't valuable enough to displace node — bun is interesting, but not stable or focused enough. it's why node remains dominant and growing.

what is going on with deno, i never hear about it

ship something valuable using only AI

@nazo_btw windows is not made out of electron. fact.

@heapwolf most of the commenters say that they indeed use a mixed bag of electron, edge webview, js and react native

my windows 11 observations so far - it tries to be linux - somehow fails to do it - everything feels slow, draggy, clunky - the slowness feels like el*ctron - i hope they aren’t using el*ctron - i am afraid to search for the answer - debloat script makes it usable

@min_maxxer @ThePrimeagen rust will only save you from a narrow class of errors. A program can be totally "wrong" and still compile and run.

@ThePrimeagen Out of topic question : Will LLM's get significantly better at generating rust than python . Right now it's python because of training data diff. The rust compiler is much stricter and better at providing error messages wouldn't this improve the rust code generation with RL?

i wish i got into security, it seems like it must be so much fun these days

@connorshepherd @waitbutwhy the curve of his graph relies heavily on fundamental scientific breakthroughs arriving "any day now"...

@waitbutwhy We are literally in year 5 of AI with human-level intelligence. There is no clear path to breaking out above it with the technology we have? How can you possibly claim your graph would predict this? It directly states the opposite.

Seems like a good time for an update on a graph from my 2015 post on AI.

@BoringBiz_ @zack415 as an industry, we over-hired under-skilled people during growth, this is the reset we need.

@zack415 Wow

Reddit is filled with posts like these across every profession Anyone with any insight on what is going on?

@catalinmpit Small models for specific things can perform better than very large models trained on unrelated things.

Why bother running LLMs locally? They don’t have the same performance as the hosted ones.

@ns123abc if by hack you mean do marketing to

Apparently gpt5 is so good sama is afraid it can hack the whole internet if they release it to the masses

@FlipOneUp Relay was released a long time ago, it was open for about a year, maintaining it wasn't valuable for us, so we archived it, it still had too many questions on how to do things with it, so now it's unavailable

@heapwolf Off-topic, but are you releasing Relay anytime soon (esp. so we can look at your reference code for Socket Runtime)?

@ArmandDoma AI is making a mess that will require skilled programmers to fix — it's actually creating more work. And there is no path to AGI, so most likely it's a good move.

I have a friend who had a career in a fairly niche industry and is struggling to find work. He’s considering a career switch, but worried that software engineering is going to be super hard to break into due to AI. Any recommendations?

Join us tomorrow at 7pm for what I am sure will be a fascinating conversation about the future of Software development . x.com/i/spaces/1rmGP…

@forloopcodes i built that in 2017, the player was easy to build. the problem was licensing music, The Orchard owns the licensing to almost every song ever made, it's extremely hard to work with them if you aren't already a big player. electronjs.org/blog/voltra

I'm 18 and i have been building my first open-source alternative to spotify since last 7 months. The app works smoothly but is there anyone who can sponsor me? (i'm open to dilute 45% equity) for launch. Also how do I ask the artists for music? Reply 👇
