Launching a new AI consultancy with some equally grey-bearded engineer friends. comfyjumper.ai We differentiate ourselves in that we're all super-experienced at realtime applications and optimization. We can make your system sing. At high hertz.

welcome back to mid-day news

@SebAaltonen @scratchboom Is this your company/tech? We might be interested in a collaboration if you've got time to talk?

@scratchboom HypeHype is available in Canada, Philippines and Finland as soft launch. There's an older WebGL2 version too, which isn't really well maintained.

I am impressed about our new WebGPU WASM page load time. Whole engine loads in just a few hundreds of milliseconds. And games load pretty much instantly too.

@cursor_ai I'll let you know if my AI powered prayer wheel works. Or maybe I'll just disappear.

@cursor_ai One thing I learned in my experimentation with React Native yesterday - the audio library is unreliable and shit. Wow.

Had an absolutely cracked idea for an AI app this morning. No measurable productivity gains whatsoever. Debatably completely useless. Still going to use my @cursor_ai superpowers to build it this morning. Maybe I try #buildinpublic

Are you moving to Canada as well?

How did I go so long without hearing these guys? youtu.be/RacxNskxySo?si…

So cool. This is why all us AI engineer types want to play with robotics.

@Anticleric Bonus points if the next time he says "Rate me, again."

Any Nirvana fans understand why I'm giggling at the Uber driver that just said. "Rate me, my friend." 🎵😅

I totally wrote this you guys.

We're building Visionary, an Agentic AI games development platform. racingthesingularity.substack.com/p/we-have-a-vi…

My 4 year old just watched most of "In The Blood Club" with me and pronounced near the end: "That's who I want to be" [Blade] Then screamed in terror and hid her eyes when the bbqed vampire got up off the autopsy table.

@scottastevenson Yeah we're spinning up a consultancy that does just that, building on our work on Visionary. If you're seeing lots of work we'd love to bid on it.

In terms of balance, there are too many ML researchers compared to the number of pragmatic LLM hackers It's like everyone wants to show that they can build database software from scratch, and (relatively) few understand how to actually build good applications on top of databases There will be a lot more application companies than there will be foundation companies. Every application company is struggling more in finding skilled LLM hackers than it is in finding R&D talent.
