@Semper_Viventem Not crediting Claude on your stuff when it’s the one writing all the code is incredibly dishonest. You want to deceive people into thinking you’re the one that wrote it?

Claude Code automatically adds itself to the commit metadata "Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus <noreply@anthropic.com>". I strongly disagree with crediting Claude as a commit co-author. It is a tool I'm paying for, not a copyright holder, not an author. We don't credit Visual Studio.

@geddski Niceeee

I don't know bout y'all but my twitter feed is 99.9% the same topic (yap that one) and I need more variety. If there are still real people on here how about we branch out? I'm making a guitar by hand! The sides are coming along. Took forever to cut and shape this kerfing.

@thdxr This is literally how the video game industry crashed in 1983 Barriers to entry crashing down to zero is not a good thing

you can spend so much time just tinkering and playing with things now. every idea i ever had for a fun little game or concept i can just do i can't think of a better form of entertainment

@zeddotdev > the conversation that generates the code is becoming the true source of our software Rare Zed L 😭

Great software always took shape in conversation, not the commit. With agents, the conversation that generates the code is becoming the true source of our software. And Git can't keep up. So we built something that can. Meet DeltaDB: zed.dev/blog/introduci…

@ThePrimeagen Are you becoming based on AI

Same features Less code

@thorstenball > checks bio > Working on @ ampcode, the Frontier Coding Agent. aaaand there it is

@clirocks @alexkehr 💯

@alexkehr hot take: any software engineer who is at close to 100% ai coding output should be cut within 3 months not only are they lazy, but they've also shown a lack of responsibility and willingness to think

hot take: any software engineer who is not already at close to 100% ai coding output should be cut within the next 3 months not only are they inefficient, but they’ve also shown a lack of curiosity and willingness to learn

@_chenglou So excited to live in a world where all software is just this because everyone’s too lazy to write quality code themselves

Thoughts on Bun’s port from Zig to Rust Background: back on ReactJS I sometime helped refactoring the Facebook monorepo when there’s a breaking React API change. I then led the conversion of Messenger web from JS to ReasonML. Given those experiences, I think there’s some interesting parallel to @jarredsumner's refactor of Bun that the programming community isn’t picking up. There are refactors of 100 lines that’d take days to verify, then there are refactors of 100k lines that’d take minutes. “Refactor” is a large word and most folks associated it with structural changes (which is indeed what a worthwhile refactor should be and what most folks are exposed to). However, what Bun did is actually to intentionally preserve existing structures through situation-specific, syntactic and semantic invariants. In other words, pretend that Bun whipped up something between a bunch of seds + AST macros and a proper transpiler, then transpiled the codebase. Such codebase-specific transpiler would treat the tests passing to be not just about the concrete tests themselves, but about them validating representative semantic “corners” of said transpiler (In which case the correctness of such refactor increases up immensely bc tests represent generalized semantics). Now tackle on the fact that Claude helped accelerating the making of this virtual transpiler from, say, 70 days to 7, then this all adds up. One additional note is that such transformation is more dangerous if it was Rust -> Zig. But here it’s from a less safe lang to a safer one (I like Zig so this isn’t a subjective vote. Anything that makes languages more like Jai is probably good for agentic usages). Now here’s the exciting point I’m trying to reduce this situation to: the LLM (Mythos?) itself acted as this premade, ad-hoc transpiler, which imo is a much more fun, and much less discussed perspective. There’s a very strong argument (and soon, more empirical evidence) that a specially-posttrained LLM, along with inference determinism and some lower-level traditional compiler helpers, can act as an optimizing compiler one day. Pretty exciting era we’re entering!

@ProgenticEngine @croloris I already love Zig you don’t need to sell it to me more

The Zig compiler project rejects AI contributions for very concrete reasons. - The contributor pipeline is a core aspect of our business model and produces value FAR BEYOND the code. Breaking it is an existential threat to Zig. kristoff.it/blog/contribut… - For some projects it's a problem to rely on vibecoded infrastructure. Some have learned this the hard way with Bun recently. Zig is general purpose programming language for building critical infrastructure and we want to give maximum freedom to our users. See quoted message.

@ForrestPKnight > anti-ai policy regardless of code quality Based

Most of the Zig "hate" I've seen is just fun n' games. But even so, having an anti-Zig stance is completely understandable. - still in beta after 10 years, unstable - break code almost every release (wonder if they'll rewrite I/O again, again) - anti-ai policy regardless of code quality - good PRs blocked due to that policy - moving off GitHub with a holier-than-thou attitude... while the engineering reasons were understandable, the political bookending was nonsense - call GitHub engineers monkeys and losers then backtrack when you receive backlash - their whole comptime duck typing thing is rough. no traits, no interfaces, errors buried in generic bodies. good luck to ya. Zig's largest user has to fork Zig to ship at a reasonable pace, and when they try to push a change with 4x faster debug compilation, Zig doesn't accept it. So let's not pretend the Zig "hate" is unwarranted. There are plenty of reasons for it.

@clattner_llvm Love you Chris but if the author didn’t feel like giving up the time or effort to write the words themselves, why should I give up mine to read it? Barriers to entry for creating content are good

I built a story and you can too! Check out "The Carbonated Crisis": inkwell.modular.com/shared/the-car… This is built by Modular's free demo, using lightning fast image and text generation to build interactive storybooks. It's a fun and interactive, check it out! 👇

Alguien acaba de pulverizar a toda la industria de assets 3D. Lo que en 2023 ocupaba a un artista 3D senior durante tres semanas, hoy lo haces tú solo en una tarde de sábado sin abrir Blender una sola vez. El stack completo: → Concept art generado en 30 segundos con nano banana o GPT image → Conversión imagen → malla 3D con Hunyuan3D, Tripo o Meshy → Limpieza de topología + auto-rigging en Meshy o Tripo → Animaciones instantáneas vía Mixamo Te dejo de prueba un capibara hecho íntegramente con este pipeline. Modelado, riggeado, animado. Game-ready para Unity o Unreal. Cero artistas contratados. Cero líneas de código. Una tarde. La barrera de entrada a la industria del videojuego acaba de caer al suelo.

What's that ONE feature you're missing in Zed?

@teej_dv Datastar is goated

hmmm.....🤔this might work

@its_bvisness This was super fun to take part in! Thanks for organizing!

Two exciting updates: 1. The Handmade Essentials Jam wrapped up over the weekend, and we had over 30 submissions! It’s the biggest turnout we’ve ever had for a jam by a mile. We’ll be doing a live recap show soon, but in the meantime, please go check out the submissions: handmade.network/jam/essentials 2. The Handmade Network Expo is SOLD OUT! I’m thrilled that we were able to do this for our first in-person event. If you bought a ticket, then see you in Vancouver June 6 😁

@tkanarsky @thorstenball Interesting, it is really cool. How much if any of the code is AI generated? Is it on GitHub?

@taylorplewe @thorstenball i think i just used the chromium/macos sans serif font stack, with as many fallbacks as possible. Noto is probably doing a lot of heavy lifting

Imagine pulling out this bad boy in a CLI

@tkanarsky @thorstenball Where do you get all the fonts that are able to render all the characters? I just made github.com/taylorplewe/un… and struggled finding supporting fonts. Are you using google’s Noto font?

@thorstenball you will really love unicode.tkanarsky.com (still a work in progress)
