my life is so weird man. it's all claude. he does all my work. if anyone has questions i just pipe it to claude. he plans my days. my weeks. months. i just bought a bracelet for my wife that claude suggested. while at the gym doing the set claude gave me what am i

feels like such a wasted opportunity every moment your agents aren't running

On December 8, the Perseverance rover safely trundled across the surface of Mars. This was the first AI-planned drive on another planet. And it was planned by Claude.

I've never felt this much behind as a programmer. The profession is being dramatically refactored as the bits contributed by the programmer are increasingly sparse and between. I have a sense that I could be 10X more powerful if I just properly string together what has become available over the last ~year and a failure to claim the boost feels decidedly like skill issue. There's a new programmable layer of abstraction to master (in addition to the usual layers below) involving agents, subagents, their prompts, contexts, memory, modes, permissions, tools, plugins, skills, hooks, MCP, LSP, slash commands, workflows, IDE integrations, and a need to build an all-encompassing mental model for strengths and pitfalls of fundamentally stochastic, fallible, unintelligible and changing entities suddenly intermingled with what used to be good old fashioned engineering. Clearly some powerful alien tool was handed around except it comes with no manual and everyone has to figure out how to hold it and operate it, while the resulting magnitude 9 earthquake is rocking the profession. Roll up your sleeves to not fall behind.

@DFintelligence @AnthropicAI @OpenAI Pourquoi Gemini 3 est-il hors course selon toi ? J’utilise le modèle flash dans Antigravity et je suis super impressionné par la qualité / rapidité. Est-ce que tu as pu le tester ?

Bon aprés 1 mois avec Claude Opus 4.5 et Codex 5.2 . J'abandonne Claude Code. J'avais redonné une chance aprés 5 mois à @AnthropicAI , c'est vraiment un super model qu'ils ont et je l'adore Opus 4.5. Mais 5.2 de @OpenAI est largement au dessus en terme de dev. Genre largement. Mais il coute 250E/mois... contre 100E/mois pour CC. Gemini 3 est evidemment hors course. On verra le mois prochain peut être ;).

Google will never sell TPUs. The moment Google sells TPUs at scale, they transform their architectural advantage into a commodity. Google's internal teams have first-order claims on TPU capacity because those workloads directly generate revenue and strategic moats. Any TPU sold externally is a TPU not used to defend Google's primary profit engines. Right now, TPUs are Google's proprietary edge, vertical integration that lets them operate AI infrastructure at costs competitors can't match. DeepMind can burn through compute budgets that would bankrupt OpenAI because Google doesn't pay retail GPU prices, they pay internal TPU marginal cost. If Google starts selling TPUs externally: - They have to price competitively vs Nvidia GPUs, which means revealing their cost structure. Suddenly, everyone knows Google's true AI compute costs aren't magic. - Selling bare metal TPUs means publishing detailed specs, performance benchmarks, and programming interfaces. This is handing competitors a blueprint for "how Google actually does AI at scale." Right now, that's proprietary. The moment it's a product, it becomes studied, reverse-engineered, and eventually replicated. - Google Cloud already sells TPU access via GCP at premium prices. If they start selling bare TPUs, they're competing with their own higher-margin cloud offering. No sophisticated buyer would pay GCP markup when they could buy TPUs directly and run them cheaper. GCP TPU pricing is not aggressive compared to GPU alternatives, but it is premium. This isn't incompetence, it's intentionally priced to discourage massive external adoption. Google makes TPUs available enough to avoid antitrust "hoarding infrastructure" accusations and to capture some high-margin cloud revenue, but they don't actually want external customers consuming capacity at scale. Compare this to AWS, which sells every chip they can manufacture (Graviton, Trainium, Inferentia) because AWS is a commodity infrastructure business. Google's core business is ads and consumer products that depend on AI infrastructure. Selling the infrastructure is like McDonald's selling their supply chain to Burger King, even if it generates revenue, you're strengthening competitors and weakening your primary business. You can't simultaneously be a commodity chip vendor AND maintain proprietary infrastructure advantage. The moment you sell, you commoditize. The moment you commoditize, your advantage evaporates. Given that selling TPUs appears strategically unsound, why is there speculation that Google pursue it anyway? I think because cloud divisions at every hyperscaler have perpetual "we need differentiation" anxiety, and custom chips look like differentiation. But differentiation only matters if it protects margins or captures share without destroying your core business. Google selling TPUs would be differentiation that destroys more value than it creates.

Everyone has a million problems until they lose their health. Then they have only one. Health is the real luxury. Stay grateful.

@AFnewsroom @AirFranceFR @Starlink Petite precision, le wifi était cependant coupé au dessus de la Chine et de l’Inde pour « raison réglementaire ». Sinon ça marchait parfaitement, comme à la maison.

@AFnewsroom J’ai eu la chance de le tester hier sur un vol Paris-Bangkok et je peux vous dire que c’est une expérience exceptionnelle de passer un FaceTime en HD pendant que mon frère streamait son jeu préféré depuis une machine virtuelle, à 11 000 m. Bravo @AirFranceFR & @Starlink !! 🇫🇷

Nous poursuivons l'installation du wifi très haut débit à bord de nos avions, permettant de profiter gratuitement d’une qualité de service stable, rapide et sécurisée. En cette fin d'année, déjà 30% de notre flotte est équipée et la totalité le sera fin 2026.

An exciting milestone for AI in science: Our C2S-Scale 27B foundation model, built with @Yale and based on Gemma, generated a novel hypothesis about cancer cellular behavior, which scientists experimentally validated in living cells.  With more preclinical and clinical tests, this discovery may reveal a promising new pathway for developing therapies to fight cancer.

The only real test of intelligence is if you get what you want out of life.

Quel drame ! Quelle tragédie ! Quelle tristesse !! 80 ans après la Shoah on oblige ce juif comme les nazis à l’époque de creuser sa propre tombe!! Mais à la différence des Nazis , le Hamas assume, film et diffuse!! Immonde! J’accuse Emmanuel Macron par sa décision immonde et immorale de reconnaître un État palestinien sans condition de condamner ces Otages!! C’est une immense victoire pour le Hamas!!

Réalisé sans trucage

🚨 Après le chancelier 🇩🇪, c‘est au tour du Premier ministre 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Keir Starmer de contredire Emmanuel Macron, en déclarant qu'il n'est pas disposé à reconnaître un État palestinien „tant que le Hamas est au pouvoir“.

Vol Vueling : des enfants juifs et leur monitrice victimes d’un acte antisémite, avec la complicité de la Guardia Civil et du commandant Iván Chirivella — présenté comme ancien formateur des terroristes du 11 septembre. Jusqu’où va l’impunité ? @gouvernementFR quel silence !

Reconnaître un État palestinien aujourd’hui, c’est offrir au Hamas la victoire qu’il espérait le 7 octobre. C’est trahir les Juifs de France, la démocratie israélienne et les civils palestiniens, otages et victimes de l’islamo-terrorisme. Les félicitations de Mélenchon et de Rima Hassan, qui ont fait de l’ambiguïté antisémite une stratégie, sont une tache indélébile, et démontrent que le Président se trompe d’approche et de stratégie. Avant d’ouvrir tout débat, pourquoi ne respecte-t-il pas les conditions qu’il a lui-même fixées il y a quelques semaines : un Hamas démantelé et démilitarisé, et les otages libérés ?
