The Population Singularity was expected to be November 13, 2026. Current population should be about 1.2 Trillion. The map was apparently not the territory. Quoting @DavidRBellamy ‘It is trivially obvious and mere straightforward extrapolation that Earth will have infinite humans on it by 13 Nov 2026’ The mechanism is clear: more people create more people. If you can’t grasp this, we will need to resort to media manipulation to save you from yourself. P(Doom by 2026) = 100%.… Related

Here's one of the many little ways that AI is changing expectations about UI. I'm building this thing I want for teams I manage to more clearly define review points. (A bit like Shopify's phase transitions in their GSD system). I have a handful of tasks that should be checked in a review. It used to be normal practice that any list in a UI needs a title. Eg "List" or "Untitled" etc. But this was always a drag, right? Naming a list just to have a group of things is extra work. But without a name it's hard to scan and find and all lists look the same. Now AI can generate titles for anything. Li… Related

Fun piece of history — Tailwind was extracted from a hosted checkout product I was working on back in 2017. Sort of poetic to end up at Shopify almost 10 years later! CSS Related

Great idea. Will support this on Shopify docs Quoting @cramforce Request to harnesses: I love that you now send "Accept: text/markdown`. Next thing is: Put the programming language you prefer into the Accept-Language header. Accept-Language: "en-us, python" So, I don't have to feed you the TS examples when you're looking for python.

everyone should go read @dwarkesh_sp’s post - it does a great job of laying out the timeline and what we know ( and don’t know) I do have two issues with it A) the use of anthropomorphic language. These are not civilizations nor do they have desires just like a CPU thread or a bunch of programs don’t. this doesn’t mean we downplay the importance of this moment for cyber - but using human parallels for what I believe is code is dangerous territory. B) IMO it gets the impact of open source models wrong and is unreasonably dismissive for reasons that are not clear. As @ClementDelangue highlights… open source Related

coding agents Anthropic
Their words
I’m thinking about banning Claude code at Shopify until they change their mind and read AGENTS.md and .agents/skills etc.
Insisting on only reading CLAUDE.md sometimes leads to split brain problems when different team members use different tools. Just unnecessary.

Founding member of OpenAI and former director of AI at Tesla; creator of nanoGPT and the term "vibe coding".
We're starting to leave the territory where you'd test an LLM by e.g. "create an svg of pelican on a bicycle". As one idea to generalize it, I was interested what Opus 5 would do if I gave it the first paragraph of the Lord of the Rings, a 1M token budget (~$10) and asked for three js render of it. Opus went off for ~2 hours and wrote 5500 lines of code that (procedurally) rendered the story. It's kind of janky but fun. But it's a bit mindboggling that the LLM has to place and orchestrate various polygon assets in (x,y,z) coordinates and write code that animates it all, and that it even does… LLMs Related

FSD has gotten so good that the more stressful the driving situation is, the more likely I am to use it now. Two years ago I’d never use it in downtown Toronto traffic, now turning it on there takes my cortisol levels down by like 85%. So, so good. Related

A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one
sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at
korrents.com .
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said.
The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in
korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who
else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public
statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.

About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they
do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in
this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the
serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to
quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter,
especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked
article and a belief on korrents.com
are left in their original language.
