Happy birthday, America! I love this remarkable country, which was built on the idea that anyone can change the world. For 250 years, our country has been a testament to the power of possibility.  Let’s keep building extraordinary things together.

Compaction drops Codex's IQ by like 15 points every time. Feels like you have to be really careful with sizing up work. Part of why Opus & Fable 1M just *feel good* comes from how much you can throw at Claude before the thread feels broken.

"it takes hard work to achieve anything great" is a dangerous lie. great output comes from finding an activity that feels as natural as breathing or walking and great work becomes the very substance of your existence. if it feels like a grind you've found the wrong expression

Pretty much all of the top-10 all time committers on GitHub are now fabulously rich. Hard work pays off.

New Siri is going to eat up so many of the small Google searches. All of the “how do i…” “whats the hotkey for…” Just works.

We live in a time where you can generate any image but people making these SF billboards have chosen to generate a gigantic woman’s face.

This is the first real AI-native social medium to pop up. It's been inviting me to meet up with people, even scheduled a lunch to introduce a bunch of us in one of its first weeks alive. Really fresh. It's been a lot of fun. Congrats @jasonyuan!

History forgets fast. The creators of the MRI got rejected by the NIH for a grant. Then their paper got rejected by Nature. The company they worked for thought it was a waste of time to even draft the patent documents. Took 15 years from there to become clinically useful.

quick patch to `claude-channel-cli` in 0.3.0: you can now `rename` an instance to make it easier to target means you can have distinct roles (`project-reviewer`, `project-implementer`) and codex can route to the right ones. or they can even call each other with tasks

A reminder that this is what the first MRI looked like in 1977.

The reaction to Midjourney's new scanner is why I love the technology industry. Conventional knowledge gets flipped on its head every few years. You can either pull a thread and possibly unravel a new truth, or you can get angry.
