Introducing Griddy a topographic drum sequencer. youtube.com/watch?v=njBghk… This is a MIDI effect plugin heavily inspired by Mutable Instruments Grids. pichenettes.github.io/mutable-instru… Made with Claude Code in about 20 minutes Mike Krieger cat Boris Cherny in C++ 🤯

openai just won the API game gpt-5 is so much cheaper than sonnet/opus

Next time I get a phone call from you at a weird hour:

This is gonna be absolutely crucial in the next year. Needs to be broken up into two parts of a shared phase, that rotates on some cadence

techcrunch reports that AI coding tools have "very negative" gross margins. i.e. they're losing money on every user. this isn't just a temporary reality while competing in the land grab, it's the market telling us that this structure doesn't work. there's a natural market

I've been surprised and impressed by how all of the leading agents are essentially while loops with llm + tool calls. As a systems nerd, I've always wished that AI software (even pre-LLM) were modular. I love abstractions :) But the reality is, the bitter lesson of AI systems

One last star to get us over the hump 👀

ME AND 999 FRIENDS* * one of which is a bot 😭

Went for a walk with Grok voice mode. Asked it about Jurassic Park. Got a masterclass on CGI, animatronics, and skin textures. Asked Siri to change the song: “Here’s what I found on the web.” 🤦‍♂️ Why do I even bother?

Nothing will humble you more than being sick for an extended period of time

Whoa, Bytebot is trending on Github: github.com/trending?since…

Still too small smh

Founders have long memories. When the chips are down and the times dark, they always remember who was helpful, who was easy to work with, and who was a pain the ass. I think this pattern explains why startup investors tend to be good humans. Bad ones are ejected quickly.

Thanks for covering us Lena Hall!

all model companies were pretraining on the ~same internet. of course, grok has access to twitter dataset and gemini can pretrain on youtube & so on. but it's mostly the same internet otoh, rl envs will be w.e the lab chooses to prioritize. so you should expect more speciation

I love this idea
