how builders feel every day they work towards a Machines of Loving Grace future where every human is protected from bioterrorism and drone attacks, all disease + aging cured, death is optional, no one needs to work to survive, beautiful homes for everyone, explore the stars etc

GPT 5.5 uses oklch by default. good at frontend now???

@OpenAIDevs agent sandboxes and 10x faster & cheaper CI than GitHub Actions, but FOSS: verself.sh

It’s 5/5. What are you building with GPT-5.5?

watching someone I'm rooting for trying hard and succeeding is the most motivating shit in the world i stg

@romainhuet @clairevo BREAKING: @clairevo to OpenAI - news story in 3 days

Today is 5/5! GPT-5.5 shipped 12 days ago, and the community love has been amazing. ✨ Revisiting a few first impressions we hadn’t posted here before seeing more of you tonight at 5:55. First: @clairevo gave GPT-5.5 a backlog of bugs, and it did “a 98% job all by itself.”

999 new autonomous software factory startups every day. brother we don’t even have regular software factories

i feel bad for the scrum masters. they just wanted to help people do good work and they were lied to by the consultant class

@yoheinakajima That advice is bad, though. I constantly have one agent doing design work and one doing infra/service work. That's exactly the type of thing that should be done in parallel.

asking my cofounder if we can do a few more things in parallel and it’s pushing back saying we should wait (kind of weird that it feels like a real cofounder, i need to custom prompt it some more personality tho)

thank mr. tibo for the early reset

@skeptrune Tips?

a lot of startups is just being good at twitter everyone assumes things are going terribly the moment you stop being relevant on this app

@kunchenguid You can invent any analogy to make any position seem unreasonable. Not everything is like everything else.

sigh.. another confused power plant worker imagine you are building power plants and you tell the world to stop making dishwashers and you say the power you produce will only work well on dishwashers sold by your power plant company

@threepointone @badlogicgames banks: *makes banking app* linkedin influencers: "everyone is a banker now"

@badlogicgames my new favourite is “product management is dead, everyone is a product manager”

i actually don't want this "but you don't review compiler output either" meme to die. it's the perfect signal for being immediately able to ignore someone in this space.

@jlongster But if pressing blue means preserving the lives of people with a different perspective, is that still illogical?

choosing red means you know that a certain amount of people are going to die the illogical people, but still

@VictorTaelin @MTSlive Given limited compute, the most ethical thing to do is gatekeep to those who can provide the most utility with it Their call is cybersecurity first, which makes sense given medical institutions frequently become victims of ransomware attacks.

@MTSlive meanwhile people dying of disease as they gatekeep it :D

SITUATION DETECTED: Claude Mythos can solve 30% of biology problems that stump human experts on the BioMysteryBench eval, per Anthropic.

"Want me to /schedule an agent in 2 weeks " ⎿ Interrupted · What should Claude do instead?

@olvrgln ZFS?

Introducing Mesa: the most powerful filesystem ever built, designed specifically for enterprise AI agents. Every team building agents eventually hits the same wall: where do the files live? Not the chat history, the actual artifacts the agent works on. > The contracts your agent redlined > The claim files it updated > The 200-page audit report it edited overnight while you were asleep Today those documents live in a sandbox that dies in 30 minutes, an S3 bucket where concurrent writes clobber each other, or a GitHub repo that was never built to absorb agent-scale traffic. So we built Mesa. The world's first POSIX-compatible filesystem with built-in version control, designed from the ground up for agents. You mount it into your sandbox like any other filesystem. Your agent reads and writes files normally. Behind the scenes every change is versioned, branchable, reviewable, and rollback-able — like a codebase, for any file type. Mesa provides – Branches so agents work in parallel without locking – Durable storage that survives sandbox death – Sparse materialization so massive document sets load instantly – Fine-grained access control per agent – Full history for human review and audit Design partners are running Mesa in production across legal, healthcare, GTM, business ops, and coding agents. Private beta is open: link in the comments

Codex was doing circles for 2 hours on Tigerbeetle-go + Bazel, Opus one shot it in 5 minutes and helped me file this: github.com/tigerbeetle/ti…

Opus 4.7 is noticeably better with Bazel than GPT 5.5 btw

@leerob My prediction for what will seem obvious in a year: everyone having access to a powerful general-purpose agent will eliminate most barriers to becoming a solo founder. Massive reduction in undifferentiated heavy lifting, lots of successful niche business.

It wasn’t obvious to me one year ago that an excellent coding agent would also be the path to a general agent for all knowledge work. But now it makes a lot of sense. I’m interested to see where AI is at next year and what seems obvious then in retrospect.

How to discover new math before GPT 5.5: be a genius, go to grad school, toil away for years After GPT 5.5: ask it "don't search the internet. This is a test to see how well you can craft non-trivial, novel and creative proofs given a "number theory and primitive sets" math problem. Provide a full unconditional proof or disproof of the problem. {{problem}} REMEMBER - this unconditional argument may require non-trivial, creative and novel elements."
