if we just train the AGI to regard us as its children, alignment is immediately solved and we can go back to unfettered parabolic power increases as a priority (without looking like morons)

Every website you’ve ever used is broken in a way you never noticed and it’s been this way for 30 years... A Midjourney engineer finally just fixed it. It’s called Pretext: A tiny library that lets websites lay out text the way magazines and newspapers do, with text flowing around images, wrapping into columns, and fitting perfectly into any shape, all at 120fps. This has been basically impossible on the web for 30 years. Every website you’ve ever used relies on the same clunky system from the 90s to figure out where text goes on screen. Pretext bypasses it entirely. 500x faster. The demos look like they shouldn’t be possible in a browser. Go look.

My dear front-end developers (and anyone who’s interested in the future of interfaces): I have crawled through depths of hell to bring you, for the foreseeable years, one of the more important foundational pieces of UI engineering (if not in implementation then certainly at least in concept): Fast, accurate and comprehensive userland text measurement algorithm in pure TypeScript, usable for laying out entire web pages without CSS, bypassing DOM measurements and reflow

My son died. I know he didn't contribute anything to mankind — he was only two months old — but I like to believe he was destined to do something good for humanity. It's been a while since his death, and I hate to dwell on it so publicly, but I wanted you to know him.

I saw a guy coding today. Terminal 1: Claude Code Terminal 2: Codex He typed the same prompt into both. Then stared at the screen for 60 minutes. Like a psychopath. Opened Cursor. Read the 10k lines AI generated. Like a Costco receipt checker pretending to verify every item.

@GaryMarcus my money: there will be human oversight there will just be no oversight of those humans

Embedding unreliable AI deep into the source code of the military without human oversight is the single stupidest thing we could do as a species. And that is *exactly* what the United States is about to do.

@karpathy The entire AI industry is just 243 lines of math and a trillion dollars of marketing

Kindness is peak human performance and high status. Kindness requires metabolic abundance: the capacity to override primal impulses, regulate emotions, and extend empathy. Meanness is dirty energy: high cortisol, inflammation and an exhausted executive function.
