@Yomi_200 @MaltProtocol We are. Thinks been pretty rough IRL for the team which has set us back. But we have been doing a live test with our own capital on a new dex + arbitrage system.

I'm ready to feel something via the "re-invest" button. @MaltProtocol @0xScotch are we cooking something new?

@lexfridman Whats their thoughts on the possibility msft just integrate all Cursor features directly into VSCode via Copilot. What is their pitch to investors to raise money when the platform they forked has infinite money and already has a similar product integrated into it.
English
I'm doing a podcast with the Cursor team. If you have questions / feature requests to discuss (including super-technical topics) let me know!
For those not familiar, Cursor is a code editor based on VSCode that adds a lot of powerful features for AI-assisted coding.
I've been using Cursor and love it, so I thought why not talk to the team. The founders are a bunch of brilliant folks from MIT.
This conversation will be bigger than just about Cursor, but more generally about the future of programming with AI.

@yacineMTB This is best news I’ve heard in a while. Been using aider in tmux split alongside nvim but want inline diffs like cursor. Avante looks great. Thank you
English
I have been saying this for a while now but no one has been listening. Always early as usual
That said don't use cursor. Use avante.nvim - you really don't want to rely on closed source software for this stuff

Programming is changing so fast... I'm trying VS Code Cursor + Sonnet 3.5 instead of GitHub Copilot again and I think it's now a net win. Just empirically, over the last few days most of my "programming" is now writing English (prompting and then reviewing and editing the generated diffs), and doing a bit of "half-coding" where you write the first chunk of the code you'd like, maybe comment it a bit so the LLM knows what the plan is, and then tab tab tab through completions. Sometimes you get a 100-line diff to your code that nails it, which could have taken 10+ minutes before. I still don't think I got sufficiently used to all the features. It's a bit like learning to code all over again but I basically can't imagine going back to "unassisted" coding at this point, which was the only possibility just ~3 years ago.
English
@real_philogy For me:
Correctness > gas > ergonomics >= compile times
Prioritise features that benefit end users first.

Anyone dunking on somebody trying to build something is cringe.

@duck4i @shaiunterslak @MaxBrodeurUrbas @rbehal1729 This is true but 99% of people can’t. You go ahead and build it yourself. The startup still has a big enough market to be profitable. Or you could use their product and spend the few weeks building something else that moves the needle for you. Optionality isn’t bad
English
@shaiunterslak @MaxBrodeurUrbas @rbehal1729 The amount of startups that are something you can write yourself on a few weeks is way too high…
English
Fuck AI agents.
I just want reliable workflows that do what they're meant to do.
These 3 little squares just saved me 10+ hours/week.
@MaxBrodeurUrbas and @rbehal1729 built this app that lets you automate anything.
This flow takes my Shopify orders and enriches the customer data with LinkedIn URL, job title, etc.
This is just the start though! I can use Gumloop to write (and send) personalized emails, draft user interview questions and so much more.
Pretty cool.

@aureliano_law @gakonst I think there is given the `ethers-rs` bindings are deprecated in `forge bind` now
English
@gakonst Any plan to support alloy bindings in `forge bind`?
English
Releasing Alloy v0.1!
After a year of development, we're excited for the first release of the Alloy project: an ecosystem of extensible, performant, well-tested and well-documented libraries for interacting with Ethereum.

@Sybiliooo @haydenzadams @LeagueOfLegends @riotgames Kernel code is the most privileged code on the computer. It can see and do everything. The code might be fine, but if it’s ever compromised your machine is completely owned and everything you do on it can be known and exploited.
English
@haydenzadams @LeagueOfLegends @riotgames can i get a tldr on the issues with kernel level anti-cheat
English
Booted up @LeagueOfLegends for first time in a while to find out it now requires always on kernel level anti-cheat software
🖕 fu @riotgames I’m out
Any good MOBA recs to replace it?
English
@abishaieth @haydenzadams @LeagueOfLegends @riotgames Opaque kernel level code on your machine is a big no if you care about security. That code ever gets compromised you are in big trouble. The AC isn’t even relevant to the discussion
English
@haydenzadams @LeagueOfLegends @riotgames Kernel anti-cheats are the best AC possible tf you on about 🤦

@Fiskantes Real talk fiction is a golden ticket. You will find so much more “help” in them than in any “self help” book.
Non fiction has to explain explicitly while fiction allows for unimaginable depth between the lines. Trust your ability to intuit between the lines
English
Since my childhood I read many books cover to cover from dinosaur encyclopedias, historical naval battle accounts, self help books, donald duck comic books, grimdark fantasy all the way to (few select) classic literature pieces
I think that reading fiction had much more impact on my growth than non fiction
mike@mike_4131
@Fiskantes fiction >>>>>>>> nonfiction self help books are the nut low

@embersunn I’ve been CTO on a few occasions, lead dev, founder etc written millions of lines of production code, I have had an Arch machine under my desk for over a decade. I love vim and use it exclusively. I’m all the stereotypes.
I still write most of my code from a MacBook Air.
English
I remember when I owned my MacBook Air 2017, I had a lot of people in the comments make fun of me and say I’m not a real programmer with my Mac. Till this day I have no idea why and I need explanations
Was it because my laptop wouldn’t overheat and make that really loud sound in class?

@banteg The dude’s approach is definitely better than the scope of the spec given. I think if he never claimed what he did was lossless there would be no drama. But pedantry wins
Ultimately it’s dudes like him that push these problem forward.
English
it’s really funny seeing people dunking on this guy based on the dictionary definition and then see him absolutely destroy the poorly set up challenge and people who want to compress the data before telling the signal from noise.
moderate rock@lookoutitsbbear
@usrbinishan not only does it convert back losslessly it also has the noise removed
English
@pinkopog @focusfronting Very true. I think people are dunking because he still claims it’s lossless.
English
@KatStijn @focusfronting He may very likely be correct that the noise isn’t important and should be removed. Everyone is dunking on him because of his imprecise language calling it lossless while throwing away a lot of the signal
English
@KatStijn @focusfronting Challenge is to compress the signal in a way that you can decompress it to recover the EXACT same signal - that is “lossless”.
He compressed the signal and removed some signal he thinks is noise but still declared it to be lossless because the signal he removed isn’t important

@dcinvestor Kenji Lopez’s book “Wok”. Lots of really great recipes with the “why” of everything pretty well explained
English
getting very into wok stir-frying lately
easy way to make a ton of food, usually only one pan, can easily ramp up veg/protein content, healthier and cheaper than most asian takeout (and often tastes better with higher quality ingredients)
shill me your best recipes & resources

This is at the core of the thesis behind the new @MaltProtocol system. A dex that that can use the associated stablecoin’s collateral to capture MEV on its own pricing as well as arbitrage against other dexes. Profit goes to increasing collateral and paying LPs
Launching soon
Alcibiades@0xAlcibiades
Keeping MEV at the app layer is the way we can start seeing profitable apps again and development with sustainable incentives.
English
Your focus groups will tell you the kids zone out when its hard. So make it less challenging. Ofc the kids dont revel in the challenge immediately. The whole point of difficulty is you sit with it for a bit. Get bored. Get frustrated. Do smtn amazing because you had the time
English
Kinda interesting to think about balancing the incentives of companies to make products that sell well against the need for children to engage in challenging things.
English
It would be hysterical if it turned out we reach AGI because developers putting ascii art diagrams in code to explain algorithms ended up giving LLMs enough training tokens to develop spacial reasoning abilities
