Bolt SF office is officially open! Builders, founders, partners, friends. Thanks to everyone who showed up 💙

This is how the EU/UK now regulates social media: 🤐 Offer CEOs secret deals to censor dissent. 🚨 If they refuse, open criminal cases against them. 😑 When people push back, say it's "all for the children". 🎭 "Protecting children" has become the standard legal/PR cover.

Opus 4.6 is live in Bolt. Where it shines: → collaborating on large codebases → using custom design systems → adding complex features (front & backend) 100% free the next 48h for all paid users + 2x limits for free tier. Let us know what you think!

A lot of people quote tweeted this as 1 year anniversary of vibe coding. Some retrospective - I've had a Twitter account for 17 years now (omg) and I still can't predict my tweet engagement basically at all. This was a shower of thoughts throwaway tweet that I just fired off without thinking but somehow it minted a fitting name at the right moment for something that a lot of people were feeling at the same time, so here we are: vibe coding is now mentioned on my Wikipedia as a major memetic "contribution" and even its article is longer. lol The one thing I'd add is that at the time, LLM capability was low enough that you'd mostly use vibe coding for fun throwaway projects, demos and explorations. It was good fun and it almost worked. Today (1 year later), programming via LLM agents is increasingly becoming a default workflow for professionals, except with more oversight and scrutiny. The goal is to claim the leverage from the use of agents but without any compromise on the quality of the software. Many people have tried to come up with a better name for this to differentiate it from vibe coding, personally my current favorite "agentic engineering": - "agentic" because the new default is that you are not writing the code directly 99% of the time, you are orchestrating agents who do and acting as oversight. - "engineering" to emphasize that there is an art & science and expertise to it. It's something you can learn and become better at, with its own depth of a different kind. In 2026, we're likely to see continued improvements on both the model layer and the new agent layer. I feel excited about the product of the two and another year of progress.

The satellites will actually be so far apart that it will be hard to see from one to another. Space is so vast as to be beyond comprehension.

coming very soon to bitchat: location chat. chat with anyone in nearby regions (block/neighborhood/city/region/country). or teleport to anywhere in the world via a geohash. it works by using geohashes to map the world into chat channels, uses a new pseudonym per geohash for privacy, and decentralized relays to propagate (via nostr). in app store review.

Test-based certification is the only way forward in food, eager to see more over time. Food is not simple anymore - it is a complex, industrial product with global supply and processing chains. Contamination can be introduced in many stages along the way from farming to harvest, processing, packaging, transport and preparation. Examples include pesticides, nitrates, heavy metals, plastics, bacteria, etc etc. So it's not just about what food to eat, it's about which specific food item SKU, from which specific supplier, and the only way to know is to test. E.g. these two cat foods look the same, the ingredients might look the same, but the one on the left is 1000X higher in glyphosate and 100X in lead. Or e.g. this baby food formula or turmeric is loaded with heavy metals, this canned seafood, your local boba or this milk brand is seeped in plastics, or this breakfast cereal way way too high in glyphosate (real examples). I used to think that the FDA exercises oversight but the reality is that it doesn't have anywhere near enough resources to do it thoroughly and their focus is a lot more on e.g. acute microbial threats (like Salmonella, E. coli, Listeria, ...) that immediately hospitalize people, less on the rapidly growing diversity of compounds that may or may not deteriorate health over decades and that are basically treated as innocent until proven guilty under GRAS and so on. Meanwhile, the public health macro picture looks not so great - obesity up, type-2 diabetes up, fertility down (sperm count/motility), weird endocrine trends (e.g. testosterone down in men), depression and anxiety up... It wouldn't shock me if modern industrial food turns out to be a major contributor.

Something new and exciting is here Dog and cat food toxin testing + fund your pet's food + if brand claims results, your money comes back + fund more tests Together we can rapidly test all US dog and cat food. Initial results Blueprint Quantified tested 22 mass-market products (12 dog foods, 10 cat foods) from 14 US national brands. Glyphosate + Detected in 21 of 22 products (95%). + 8 products hit the upper detection limit of 1,000 ppm + That’s 118 mg glyphosate in a 118 g serving, equivalent to maximum tolerable exposure for 68 kg human + Lowest non-zero hit: 0.04 ppm (Merrick Chicken & Sweet Potato) Heavy metals + mercury, lead, arsenic, and cadmium were detected in every sample + arsenic: up to 0.238 ppm / 238 ppb (Sheba Seafood Wet Cat Food). 8.9 mcg per 38 g serving + cadmium: up to 0.084 ppm / 83.6 ppb (Royal Canin Medium Adult Dog). + lead: up to 0.343 ppm / 343 ppb (Royal Canin Indoor Adult Cat), 12.9 mcg of lead per 38 g serving  (26x California Prop 65’s daily limit (0.5 mcg)) + mercury: up to 0.012 ppm / 11.8 ppb (Sheba Seafood Wet Cat Food) Top heavy metal toxicity: + Wellness CORE+ Original (Dog): 43.4 µg/serving + Nutro Natural Choice Small Breed (Dog): 42.6 µg/serving + Blue Buffalo Homestyle Senior (Dog, wet): 35.6 µg/serving + Royal Canin Size Health Medium Dog: 33.7 µg/serving + Pedigree Small Dog “Grilled Steak & Veg” (Dog): 27.9 µg µg/serving Cleanest product Purina Friskies Surfin’ & Turfin’ (Cat) had non-detectable glyphosate, and the second lowest total heavy metals.
