OpenAI image gen seems to love blue eyes. I asked it to restore an old photo of an indian man taken in 1868 (told explicitly) and it colored the eyes blue. Tried it three times, blue eyes every time.

@brave Trying out Brave for the first time because for this. Thank you!

FYI

@Rainmaker1973 If crows had hands with opposable thumbs, we'd have serious competition.

Crow figures out how to grab all the cookies.

@dok2001 @Cloudflare A fusion power plant and solve the world's energy crisis.

What should @Cloudflare build in 2026?

@ThePrimeagen I totally bought into GraphQL in the begining 🥲

I'm so happy the GraphQL psyop is over

@milichab @leerob I suppose this is more of a UI/UX bug in that case. When I turned on Kimi K2, I was never prompted to enter an API key. Now that I'm looking closely at the "API Keys" settings, it's not abvious which of the sections is the right one for Kimi K2. Also, consider better error msgs.

@RaeesBhatti @leerob This is an issue with your API key: We got an error when trying it "Model not found, inaccessible, and/or not deployed" - not an issue with Cursor

My longest Cursor agent ran for over 3 hours here. Next year, this will become days. Time isn't a perfect measurement for quality but it roughly equates to the amount of work coding agents can do. x.com/leerob/status/…

@milichab @leerob I just tried to use Kimi K2 to edit some documentation (because it's supposed to be better at copy writing) and it failed.

@RaeesBhatti @leerob Working on all of these! Send over your bugs - worktrees/plan should be very reliable on 2.3 - when do you see models not available?

@janetacarr I feel like every other post I see nowadays is a ragebait. Are all the likes and comments really worth the human micro-anguish we're causing and the distrust we're creating?

if LLMs will make software engineering obsolete, why don't they just generate binaries instead? not code & compile under the hood. Object code is data too. why do LLMs have to generate things that humans create?

@BassemDy I explored an idea very similar to this last year: use the Apple keyboard components but put them in a mechanical keyboard with a built-in USB hub. You get touch ID + mechanical keyboard in one.

Friends at Apple, please ship this.

We buy water in small bottles and then we throw the bottles away after we've had the water. Imagine that! We're buying water 🤯 and we're making special bottles just to hold that water for a while 🤯. I could never have imagined this in my wildest dreams as a kid. It's absurd.

@caffeinum 10¹⁸ > 10¹⁰⁰ (10¹⁸ = one Exa) > (10¹⁰⁰ = one Googol) Exa is greater than Googol Exa is better than Google

i understood it

Best AI usecase so far has been fixing git merge conflicts.

@fidexcode Microsoft Visual Basic. Those were the days 🙂

In what language did you write your first "Hello world"?

@tobi @TheBillykirk because i like Canada

@TheBillykirk because I like Canada

What you are actually doing here is to bribe nokia to put these jobs into Canada by paying hundreds of thousands of dollars per job from taxpayer money. What this does is to lower the cost basis of nokia per employee. This has been going on for decades, called FDI which all civil servants think is a good thing. I spent a lot of time explaining to civil servants in ottawa that its not good for our economy that American and Oversees branch offices can employ Canadians at half the cost to all the canadian companies around them due to these subsidies. We should not do them at all, they are toxic, at least in the tech sector. It's never meat to be this way, but the situation that very often arises is: It's strictly worse inside of Canada to be a Canadian company compared to a company headquartered everywhere else. This is a bad situation, because the fruits of the subsidized labor will accrue to the wealth of other countries and not Canada. It's tax payer money invested into locking up scarce high tech talent in jobs where they no longer contribute to the Canadian economy directly. Why

I haven't really used Facebook in about a decade. But even now, when I'm in a sudden bout of stress, my first instinct is to open a new browser tab and type "face". There seems to be a deep neurological conditioning that hasn't gone away. This needs to be studied.

Charlie Munger: “You become what you pretend to be, to some considerable extent.” “I've known a lot of roguish people who made a fair amount of money and they start giving a little money to show off. And, 20 years later, they are actually real philanthropists.”

@neogoose_btw @github are you tracking this internally?

@neogoose_btw I thought it was something wrong with my browser.

What they turned github into...

startup idea: renting people's backs as ad space

@aymenedz_691 @neogoose_btw Nah, I'm seeing this on Sequoia too.

@neogoose_btw It's macOS Tahoe fault... Shitty stability...
