Oh another alt

@krispuckett I’m guessing @chan_k has been busy this past year

You just know metal shaders and metal are going to be big. Can’t freaking wait.

@round adjacent to why hiring is broken too

nobody cares about your design process

@elvin_not_11 The interaction is nice. Curious to see how it interacts with wiggling the cursor to get someone attention in Figma / screen share, etc. But it’s so coupled to the WIMP interaction model that I can’t unsee it. Do you know who was on the team working on this?

Shake cursor to activate contextual Gemini 🤯

All these new design tools seem to fundamentally not understand what design is?

@rsnous cc @tylerangert since you’re working on related things and have accurate image search 👀

@rakyll Cc @seconds_0 ?

Do I know anyone who is interested for a senior+ PM role to work on highly ambitious distributed systems problems in agentic workloads? Deep experience in ML/AI systems and container orchestration is preferred. If you are an engineer looking for a PM pivot, this could be for you.

@rishisb @karrisaarinen Seen many companies where the ones that chose otherwise (and were research focused) got labeled as difficult by PMs and pushed out when product management decided this was now their purview too. The design industry is not a serious design industry.

@karrisaarinen Upstream Should’ve been the case from day 0, instead designers chose craft as moat

The obvious path for designers in the AI age is to move closer to code. But the more valuable path may be upstream: closer to the customer, the business, and the problem. If everyone can prompt agents to code, the scarce skill becomes knowing why, what, and how to build.

@VictorTaelin @CozendeyMath Fingers crossed for them releasing it more broadly soon. Also looking forward to trying bend, was just reading the docs!

@OhAnotherAlt @CozendeyMath I mean no CUDA in V1 beyond our scale right now if only we had Mythos . . . 🥹

exactly the point of Bend2! if you 1. specify your program with strong types (aka theorems). 2. let the AI prove it, 3. let the compiler check it, then you *literally* don't need to see it. there is no reason to. it IS correct! btw, Bend now has nearly 350k lines of code, 264k of which are in the stdlib. agents are autonomously porting entire libraries from Rust, Haskell, etc. to Bend, and everything is going smoothly I barely check it since I'm working in other things just codex /goal for now, every day it grows larger soon, every algorithm ever conceived by humans will be in Bend

@VictorTaelin @CozendeyMath Apple GPUs not supported in v2? Or am I reading it wrong?

@CozendeyMath the full stdlib (including asserts) checks in 2ss Bend's proof checker is FAST, and designed to scale GPU mode is fully integrated, you can run kernels from the a normal program, values are shared seamlessly, it just works the bad news is we'll only support Apple GPUs in V1...

@WatcherontheWeb @peterboghossian @eigenrobot weren’t you joking about plotting this a while back too?

@peterboghossian It's going to be AI being tasked with spotting errors in studies and requesting replication that does it, and it's going to come very... very soon

Prediction: The replication crisis will unfold like #MeToo. Everyone in science knows how bad it is, but nobody wants to speak first. Then it all comes crashing down.

just going hater mode today. 99% of people have never gotten real critique in their lives. have you ever had someone tear apart an essay you wrote? or a piece of art you lost sleep over for a month? too many soft creatives. you grow when your work gets a close reading. you do not get that from twitter demo hype.

Technologists used to create things like UNIX and the GUI. Today the average NYU computer science grad still thinks that making a sticky note canvas app with jiggly css effects is the height of software creativity

@bartonsmith Indeed, it’s almost like a not-insignificant portion of the design industry is a pop culture. It’s been a longstanding problem, though.

People seem to be increasingly designing for the algorithm, with vibecoding only accelerating it—more effects, more motion, more flashes. A community that loves to tout Dieter Rams as their design hero are creating software designed to stand out on store shelves.

@sdamico @NYMag @strategist Hell yeah, extremely great to see publications start to recognize the work you guys have been doing over the past few years. 💪

reviews starting to drop ...! @NYMag @strategist

@kurissuuu Massive W to you and the family, and glad to hear the milestone signaling she’s doing better. 🙏💪❤️

As of today, my daughter has been cancer-free for 2 years since her bone marrow transplant, which means survivorship—It’s a huge milestone! I want to be clear that this doesn’t mean “mission accomplished” and that it will never come back again, but probably time for us to move forward as a family. I will never forget what this community did for our family during those incredibly trying times. @FumingMouth. My former manager @pdo_recruits. @lil_dill and the stripe crew. People I worked with YEARS ago or @ivanhzhao @akothari and staff who barely knew me at the time—I basically joined notion and then 2 months later went on leave. Feeling grateful, don’t take anything for granted. Much love.

@liminal_warmth CRDT as immutable log with history ui?

We're going to need a totally new model for auditing change history in multi-user documents. It's maddening to have multiple people using different LLMs to rephrase content in the same doc. Especially bad when copy/paste edits are destructive, as is the case for Google Docs atm.

@WhalesyncData @bnj Both provide tons of training data

@bnj It's not obvious why. Cursor's $60B is priced on being where AI writes most of the code. Figma isn't where AI produces most of the design. What are you seeing?

If Cursor is worth $60B to a frontier lab, what is Figma worth? Its current market cap seems like an insane bargain

@ClaudeDevs Can you stop shipping new features and actually fix the regressions in your core product?

New in Claude Code: /ultrareview (research preview) runs a fleet of bug-hunting agents in the cloud. Findings land in the CLI or Desktop automatically. Run it before merging critical changes—auth, data migrations, etc. Pro and Max users get 3 free reviews through 5/5.

Very happy to see LINK add SOC 2 type 2 to their list of credentials For those that don't know, it's a rigorous testing program that takes over 6 months - just in time for the clarity act and SWIFT T+0 rollout chain.link/security-certi…
