@vikhyatk I’m bearish on any software engineer that’s not using agentic coding :P
English
google has 200k employees. they don't say how many are SWEs, but according to estimates it's around 80k
according to this post, 40k of them use agentic coding on a weekly basis. that's way higher than i expected. bullish on google

Much love for your work, Steve. On behalf of @Google, this post doesn't match the state of agentic coding at our company. Over 40K SWEs use agentic coding weekly here. Googlers have access to our own versions of @antigravity, @geminicli, custom models, skills, CLIs and MCPs for our daily work. Orchestrators, agent loops, virtual SWE teams and many other systems are actively available to folks. We'll be writing more about our stacks this year. For personal projects, many engineers actively try the same models and tools the community does - much love to Claude Code, Open Code, Conductor and others - which helps us also learn about opportunities to improve (folks can even use @AnthropicAI's models on Vertex). Many, many of us are here on @X and build our own tools in addition to make sure we're staying sharp. With so many friends working at other frontier labs and start-ups to give ourselves a baseline, Google is anything but average.

@Dimillian Can you make it so I can run a thread with flex capacity at 50% usage?

I’m diligently working on enhancing all the features of the Codex app to make it even better for you. If you have any suggestions or ideas for improvement, please feel free to share them with us here!

@Type_Whisper @pranavmitl No worries - dm me when it’s ready to test.
Out of interest, is there anything that makes it more technically difficult than the Mac app? Or is it a prioritization thing?
English
@sidpanj @pranavmitl Sorry, not in a good state yet on our side. iOS is planned, but I’d rather be honest than send you to something half-baked.

Apple has been asleep at the wheel on OS-native dictation for so long. Aqua feels like a great acquisition candidate to change that. Wispr Flow is too expensive
Aqua Voice@aquavoice
Aqua Voice is now live for iOS. It's a premium voice keyboard for every app on your phone.
English
@pranavmitl If the price is the pain point, maybe add TypeWhisper to the list: typewhisper.com. It's open source, no subscription, and gives you a lot more control over the setup.

holy shit just replaced whispr flow with this and it's instantly a 10x better experience

I wonder if Anthropic would manage to push past IBM if they release Mythos

It’ll be interesting to see if big tech profit margins are higher or lower in 3-6 months. Everyone I’ve spoken to says their company is pushing them to use as many tokens as possible.
Will the increased velocity be worth the super high spend?
English
@kylebrussell Good stuff :D
Hopefully 10x cheaper than paying you to do it by hand!

@rohanvarma More than that, I wish we had yolo mode in Codex at batch pricing, where I can run it overnight.
English
If we made /slow mode in Codex, would you use it? What for?
(Slower inference at a cheaper cost)

@yacineMTB I don’t understand the open office hate. I sit next to the people that I’m working on a problem with everyday - seriously lowers coordination costs.
Would suck if the people sitting next to you are working on other stuff tho
English
the reason they make millions of dollars is because they are the type of people to prefer open offices. because they are trying to actually get shit done
Amanda Askell@AmandaAskell
Tech companies pay millions of dollars for their employees and then stick them in open-plan offices that make it nearly impossible to get work done. Best strategy for poaching employees is probably to just offer them an office with a door.

Today, after 10+ years, I left Palantir.
Excited for what comes next.

@chrisfralic I can’t believe how long my M1 felt super fast. I just upgraded to the M5 last week, but only started feeling the M1 getting sluggish a few months ago.
English
The new MacBook Pro in many ways is the same as my old one, but going from M1 to M5 and the overall speed and power makes it feel like something very different.
English
@javbuitrago I haven’t done it, but you can try giving it to Claude Code / Codex and having it search through the file
English
Got my whole genome sequenced. Now I want to throw the raw data at an LLM for analysis but the file is way too big. What is the best way to go about this?
