I'm super excited to share a developer tool I've been working on for the last 6 weeks! 🎉 Fireworks generates Swift code on the fly for macOS and iOS as you build particle effects, letting you iterate without having to constantly rebuild your app fireworksapp.xyz

@sarah_edo Congrats! Excited to see what you build next!!

📣 After nearly 5 fulfilling years leading Core infrastructure organizations for Google, I’m thrilled to share that I’ve taken on a new role! I’m going back to IC work as a Distinguished Engineer- my new role is in Chrome as Area Tech Lead, AI Web Ecosystem! 💥 The rise of AI is driving a fundamental sea change in web architecture. While this era promises immense innovation, it demands rigorous focus on security, privacy, and user observability. AI is a technology. It must be integrated with the same deliberate care as the major technological shifts that preceded it. In this new role, I’ll be working alongside world-class colleagues to redefine the web platform for an AI-first runtime. My mission is to architect a composable web that enables safe, standardized, and mutually beneficial interactions between creators, users, and AI agents. With this transition, I am moving from leading large organizations back to the IC track. I’ve swung this "managerial pendulum" several times in my career, and I’m energized to return to deep technical work at a moment that so clearly demands it. I'm also excited to be working with/for web legends like @laparisa @jimbankoski @paul_irish @RickByers @Paul_Kinlan @groby @mathias @bmeurer @fractorious and so many more! 💥

@Dimillian @OpenAI @romainhuet Congrats!! Excited to see what you do there 🎉

I'm joining @OpenAI at the end of the month, and I can't wait to get started! I'll be working on everything related to Codex, bringing what I learned building Codex Monitor, and working with the developer experience team with @romainhuet!

@sdw Congrats!! And welcome!

Some big personal news: I’ve joined the Design Team at Apple. So excited to work with the very best team in the world on my favorite products. ✌️

@JamesLucasIT Was it called New London Bridge when they first built it?

This is one of the worst downgrades of all time Old London Bridge was a medieval stone structure that stood for over 600 years and was once considered a wonder of the world. It was 926 feet long and filled with houses and shops, making it the longest inhabited bridge in Europe.

@humphrey4thewin Congrats!!

Update: I got the job at Apple 🤯

@seanallen_dev good old tamic

Remember this?

@GoldenDonut13 @familyguyfi @george__mack Reminds me of this Bill Burr bit youtu.be/mrn0k6i1Xi0?si…

@familyguyfi @george__mack "What kind of effects do you belive upcoming fed policy adjustments will have on the Japanese carry trade, now that the fed chair is getting criminal litigation threats by the administration due to possibly fraudulent spending during a remodel of their offices?"

If someone asks you “what do you do?” within seconds of meeting you — don’t be annoyed. Smile. You’ve just identified a transactional player. Instead, give them the lowest status answer. Then drop your highest IQ insights for the rest of the conversation. This breaks brains.

@wongmjane 👋

Barely anyone views/engages with my tweets anymore I’m aware the communities are split across different sites, but still, I wonder if it’s artificial or just the way it is these days :/

@flarup F

We used to be cultured.

@Dimillian @steipete I love that Cyberpunk has cross saves

@steipete Mario Kart World definitely, a lot of fun. Cyberpunk is def a flagship too and I'll use the Switch 2 to finally finish it!

So far, the Switch 2 is a beefy handheld. Much more comfortable and less bulky than my Steam Deck. The screen for an LCD is really, really good. I’m happy to trade OLED for a 1080P VRR display. Cyberpunk 40 FPS is really benefiting from that, something my TV can’t even do.

@TurnerNovak It’s convinced that LinkedIn Reels is a thing

“What if Google builds this??” Google trying to build it:

@mweinbach @RelaxxDE Your screenshot shows (559 * 72) + 9000 = 49,248 total cost, what am I missing?

@RelaxxDE I have a bunch of referral credits + state tax credits + federal tax credits + loyalty benefits + (maybe student if my ID Me account works still) It's like $18,250-$19,250

Just because of the 1.99% interest rate, I’m looking at how much it’ll cost to turn in not Model 3 early and get a Model Y…. This feels like too good of a deal

@Advil Massive upgrade! enjoy!

finally switching from my 2017 intel macbook pro to an apple silicon computer! i’ve held out for sooo long but it was getting unbearable. i’ve built my entire career off this one laptop 🥲

@tomwarren @Xbox_Series_XS Doesn't that also describe Demon's Souls?

@Xbox_Series_XS visually it’s a remake, but the rest feels like a remaster so I’d say remaster

ok let’s settle this one. The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered, is it a remaster or a remake?

@ChristianSelig Congrats on the R1S! I've been eyeing the Lucid Gravity, have you looked at it? (supposed to come out later this year)

Bye Tesla, after 7 years time for something new!

@seanallen_dev Your TV is too high! (Sorry pet peeve of mine 😛)

Alright. I’ll give it a shot. #severance

@Noname10622791 @waitbutwhy Good point on the low carb/keto, makes it much easier

@waitbutwhy Day 3 is often where you get into “runners high”. Next time. I remember day 6 not wanting to stop. Felt like I never had to eat again. But it’s also diff if you aren’t already very low carb/keto. That seems to make it easier. Not saying that that prolonged fasts are better.

As an experiment, trying out a fast of indefinite length. Plan A is 72 hours but might decide to extend it. Will post updates under this thread.

@DylanMcD8 I got one as a gift and now use it every day A large benefit that I didn’t anticipate (to any physical keyboard not just this one) is just how much extra screen real estate you gain when you eliminate the onscreen keyboard. Makes it really hard to stop using it

I have bought three now and idk why I keep doing it. They all end up going unused lol

@jasonfried definitely interested to see how this pans out

No idea if this Jaguar rebrand and new car direction will work or not, but I'm admiring the boldness of it more and more. "The automaker estimates that 85 percent of existing buyers won't order the upcoming electric Jag." Huge bet. motor1.com/news/752938/ja…

@VCBrags “Manufacturing momentum”

Oh no, another VC calendar flex 🫤(bonus points for energy drinks)
