Conway's game of life is still possible to setup

@shotamatsuda With llms it's just very easy to zoom past by it.

@shotamatsuda Correct, depends on person very much! Doing physically based graphics has a potential to be a personal transformative experience. Almost always there's some kind of mind blowing gotcha you will have, without which the progress is barely possible.

にわかに大気と雲作るの流行り始めてる？ いいぞ、全員やるべき。楽しいよ。気軽にできるようにもなってきたわけだし。

@shivon Experience is very similar to dreaming, similar kind of image streaming thing happening.

When you think, what medium do you tend to think in? Would be very curious to hear how you’d describe the base unit(s) of your thoughts and how they feel to you. I assumed what happens in my head was similar to everyone else but have been surprised by how varied thought can be.

@abustin Can you guys please expose search tools as a separate api similar to document search? The reason is for grok to be able to launch next round of tool calls based on the search results it received, including local tools as well.

We're reading all your feedback 👀 Keep the nitpicks coming!

@shotamatsuda Yes, incredibly useful on large codebases, especially monorepos with multiple languages!

Opus 4.6になってから「これは使えるな」ってなった。個人的に感じる変化は、推測で応えるのではなく原典を調べにいくところにある。反対に原典が希薄（e.g. 一般の問題で、有象無象の解法があるもの）では、しっかり方向性を示す必要はある。

@hamen The real lesson here is to not use react

At 54, debugging CUDA kernels at 3am. Meanwhile some 25-year-old frontend dev is 'burned out' from React tutorials. Different energy.

Imagine you're John Carmack you're 22 years old and you just wrote a 3D engine in assembly that runs at 35fps on a 486 Doom drops. Quake drops. Half the planet is playing your code. you're the reason GPUs exist. you're the reason your friend Jensen has a yacht today. then in 2009, you sell id Software. people call it betrayal. you call it "they made an offer I couldn't refuse." VR obsession. Oculus. Meta buys it for $2B. you're CTO. but Meta thinks you're a liability. your demos are "too intense." your emails are "too long." your focus on frame timing is "slowing us down." 2022. they push you out. not fired officially. just "restructured." the media writes "end of an era." some crypto bro calls you "washed up." silicon valley moves on. but you don't. you don't write a book. you don't start a podcast. you don't collect speaking fees. you go completely quiet. you take the money. you buy a warehouse in Texas. you hire 10 engineers. and you start coding. not games. not VR. AGI. two years. radio silence. no tweets. no conference talks. while everyone's debating ChatGPT, you're debugging CUDA kernels at 3AM, testing world models. then in 2025, Keen Technologies pivots hard. you're not "exploring" anymore. you're building it. here's what people get wrong: everyone calls it a comeback. a redemption arc. "revenge on Meta." it's none of that. you're a 54-year-old engineer who still codes 12 hours a day because you genuinely can't stop. most CTOs would have bought an island. most legends would have written memoirs. you just kept typing. the most dangerous person in any codebase is the one who goes quiet and never stops shipping commits. karma doesn't need to be real. but obsession is. welcome back, Carmack.

@elonmusk @Rainmaker1973 What, multidimencional cellular automaton after all?

@Rainmaker1973 The universe is fundamentally integer. There are a finite number of Planck cubes, which means a limited number of digits of pi (which can be thought of in integer form) to calculate volume. And you cannot have a fraction of a quark or lepton, so … integer.

Did you know? NASA only uses 15 digits of π for calculating interplanetary travel. At 40 digits, you could calculate the circumference of a circle the size of the visible universe with an accuracy that'd fall off by less than the diameter of a hydrogen atom. π Day 2026

@saltyAom bor you're gonna loose them on tones let alone vovels that can be written from around the consonants 😅

I don’t gaf about grammar and couldn’t care less to be honest I learned English from video games and barely have a chance to speak English in a month I do care when writing semi-professional things like email/documentation and I try really hard and need help from a machine to assist me to proofread all the time But my quick (shit)post here, I wrote it in English so YOU can understand what I’m trying to communicate to you in YOUR LANGUAGE yet you take my efforts for granted and have the audacity to mock my words If you really care about grammar then how about you study my language so I can speak without thinking and instead YOU think about every rule my language has before you speak so you can understand how much effort it took before I can finish a single sentence for you to understand

Multi-agent ai

@threejs lmao😅

Who gonna tell him? 👀

@X Feature request - add automatic checkmark verification for accounts who're using grok api if they're logged in with they x account. You're the one company now after all 😅

@cmuratori Them lists are so corrupted

Speaking of Windows circling the drain, just had my first Win11 "black screen of death". It was a PFN_LIST_CORRUPT for those interested.

Sigh...

@XorDev @SphereVegas @Shopify The mad lad did it!

Lets go!!! Thank you @SphereVegas and @Shopify for the opportunity

@SebAaltonen any chance for the source code?

WebGPU terrain compute ray-tracer update: sebbbi.github.io/LimitedDetail/ Floating point precision bug is fixed. It was Codex written code. It used a full 4x4 inverse to transform NDC far to world space and subtracted camera world. Now using fast/stable two param NCD->view formulation.

@ThePrimeagen If gospels were written in the modern era, that verse probably would've been there.

@lexfridman RDR2 is the kind of game where if you drink whiskey and smoke while playing it actually increases the immersion!

Here's my conversation with Dan Houser, co-founder of Rockstar Games and legendary creative mind behind Grand Theft Auto (GTA) and Red Dead Redemption series of video games. I have spent hundreds of hours in worlds that Dan helped create. So, this was an incredible honor and pleasure for me. It's here on X in full and is up everywhere else (see comment).

@shotamatsuda I'd say this is a bonus functionality, getting sunny weather scenes to begin with is a good start.

@shotamatsuda dynamic atmospheric function switching based on viewpoint elevation? Can probably blend one onto the other and switch smoothly in case there are noticable jump. Thinking outloud, details are needed of course.
