The gap between an average engineer and the best engineers was never quite 10x, but it was meaningful. AI has made the gap at least 100x.

Every engineer has the same AI tools now. The gap between the best engineers and everyone else has never been bigger. A really good engineer who applies AI well can now produce 100x, even 1,000x what they used to. The ones who get there stop being the bottleneck. They set up loops that run on their own. On our team at @conveoai, AI agents keep shipping code around the clock, even while we sleep. That's pushed our engineering talent bar way, way up. It's also what tips people our way when an offer is close. If you're an engineer and you're not building with AI every day right now, you're falling behind really fast.

Face ID is such an underappreciated tech. It just works 95% of the time.

My 30 day token burn just crossed 30 billion. Don't get too attached to your code or a framework. Work alongside your agents to build great artifacts and keep them running remotely 24/7.

About 100 hours to solve a 90-year math problem? Cool! Next please.
We’re sharing a solution to the Navier-Stokes Millennium Prize Problem, one of the deepest problems at the frontier of mathematics. The proof was produced by a group of agents, using an OpenAI next-generation model significantly more capable than GPT-6 Astra. The problem concerns whether the description of smooth three-dimensional fluid motion modeled by the Navier-Stokes equations can break down. It has remained unresolved for roughly 90 years.

Day 1) Astra is the greatest Day 2) it writes shit code The duality of X

Congrats to @ConveoAI (S24) on their $50M Series A! Their AI interviewer holds in-depth video conversations with thousands of real consumers, so brands learn in days what used to take months. Consumer research has always forced a choice: surveys reach lots of people but stay shallow, while focus groups go deep but are slow and expensive. Conveo removes that tradeoff, and more than 400 enterprises now use it, including 50+ Fortune 500 brands like Google, Unilever, and Canva. axios.com/pro/enterprise-sof…

Why is it so hard to choose a TV? It was so easy to move from PHP to Node.js.

Maldives to get PayPal this year, but the main bank can’t even process a basic Microsoft office subscription because of USD shortage banks own blanket policy on daily limit for foreign transactions. The irony is you can’t really celebrate this win neither be too excited, cause what good is PayPal if there’s no dollars to move 🤷‍♂️. While Visa, Mastercard, Stripe and rest of the world is moving towards stablecoins, I reckon we’d catch up in fintech in maybe 10 years. Question is, will it still be delta neutral by then?

Shipped an open-source x402 facilitator for Hono. Mount it on any Hono app, point your resource servers at it, you own the full payment pipeline. No rate limits, no third-party dependency. Wraps the official @coinbase x402 packages. Works on Cloudflare Workers and Node env. github.com/OviatoHQ/x402-fac…

‼️Do not npm install or deploy anything right now Supply chain attack on axios 1.14.1 - even if you don’t use axios it may be a nested dep. Pin versions or wait until this is resolved
Replying to @npmjs
@npmjs @GHSecurityLab there is an active supply chain attack on [email protected] which pulls in a malicious package published today - [email protected] - someone took over a maintainer account for Axios

Big thanks to @ns and @RichardRobinson for inviting us to Network School to share how we're rethinking web3 onboarding. Loved the turnout and the conversations with founders.
