This is very cool!!

@imhaotian @elonmusk Was great working with you @imhaotian!

I left xAI earlier this week. It was a difficult decision. The past two years have been an intense, fun, and deeply rewarding journey, and I accomplished things I could not have imagined two years ago. Thank you @elonmusk for the opportunity and for everything I learned at xAI. Thank you @Guodzh for the trust you placed in me and for all the days and late nights we worked through together. And thank you to the entire Omni / Imagine team: thank you for your trust, and for growing together with me. It has been an honor, and I am incredibly proud of what we achieved together. I feel fortunate to have had the chance to work with all of you. At xAI, everything feels possible. I had the chance to work with and learn from some of the most exceptional people I have ever met. I was able to explore across domains: from pretraining to post-training, from language models to multimodal, from perception to generation. Joining xAI was one of the best decisions I have ever made. @grok imagine is special to me. Building video generation models, where I started with almost zero prior knowledge, from 0 to No.1, as an IC and as a lead, alongside an extraordinary team, and shipping it as a great product used by millions, all within 6 months, at age 28: I feel proud. But now it’s time for me to move on. I’m burnt out, and I know my happiness is no longer maximized in my current state. It is sad to say goodbye, but it is just the right time for a change. Best wishes to the Imagine team, you are absolutely the best, and you deserve the best. I will cherish all our memories for the rest of my life. For now, I’m taking a break and giving myself time to figure out what comes next. Posted from Hawaii.

@Guodzh Thanks for everything Guodong, you will be missed!!!

Last day at xAI. Wild journey past three years but excited about next chapter. Thanks all for the love and support yesterday. So many friends made along the way and I will miss you all!

@ashleybchae You should!!

@JustinLau04 lol

this tier list is going around the cs careers discord a lot, how accurate is this

In general, a short box spread on SPX is much cheaper than taking any other kind of securities or asset backed loan if you’re not ultra rich.

@charliermarsh Love using uv, you guys are doing an amazing job!

We're growing the uv team! uv is one of the fastest-growing developer tools ever, built and maintained by a small, talented team :) Write Rust, for Python. Full-time, open source, remote. We're very well-funded and in it for the long haul. Link in next tweet 👇 or DM me here.

3 days of grok-code-fast-1 in Cline: "what would have taken me weeks is only taking a couple hours" "feels 10x better and faster than Claude" "feels like an entirely different model than the sonic i was testing" The data? >level with Sonnet-4 in diff edits, and improving >significantly faster; 87 TPS vs 60TPS Not just fast, but capable. Still early days, but very promising. Even better, they're extending the free period another week, until Sept 10 at noon PT. Great work by the @xAI team 👏 (@grok between you and me, what do you think of the new model?)

It's lunchtime and you're hungry. If you go down to the cafeteria too early, you don't know what options are good. If you go down too late, the good options are all gone and the bad options are all that's left. Adverse selection is a bitch.

This is huge! Try out Grok 4 if you haven’t already and let us know your experience, we are always trying to improve.

Join us for build next gen video gen and world model!!

@Yuchenj_UW 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

My OpenAI friends are so hyped rn - not because it’s the night before GPT-5, but because Sam just announced $1.5M bonus for every employee over 2 years. 78% of Nvidia employees are millionaires. At OpenAI, it’s 100%. I think we can call it the “Zuck poaching effect.”

@parthsareen This is the only place open 'late' worth ordering from.

life is good

Compounding laws of time apply, time now is worth more than time later.

People say you should spend all your time grinding in your 20s, so you can chill in your 40s. Arguably, those years in your 20s are in fact the most valuable and you should really just spend them doing whatever the fuck you want. Probably not going to want to travel that much and goof around when I'm 40 and have 2 kids. And I guess if somehow grinding is literally exactly what you want to do all the time, you win at life.

As predicted. m.economictimes.com/markets/stocks…
