It's been a while since I wrote anything so I wrote an article on how to discover the entire x86-64 instruction set in seconds including any hidden instructions and learn their basic properties while on it. There were some pretty interesting results!

An interesting primitive for those working on durable harnesses:

QuickJS with typescript support out of the box as well as a snapshottable & resumable heap. You can persist the state and resume on a different machine, or fork, even in the middle of a loop.
I keep seeing people rt the claude-gzip tweet saying "oh this was so obvious, look they are discovering, this is what I do since 1942" meanwhile completely missing:
- large conversations have thinking signatures + images in b64 which are high in entropy = compression is not that efficient anyway
- rest would be hit or miss considering gzip adds latency on both sides => if you have decent bandwidth it might just hurt instead of helping
- rep. HTTP requests where you send entire transcripts is a horrible method of exchange, needlessly O(N^2)
- more importantly, since they have `store: true` implemented for API, just not OAuth, they clearly know how to optimize it just fine
> look at this [horrible] thing they just implemented! i would have implemented [horrible+1] on day 1, smh they are learning the fundamentals
like shut up man 🤣
ooor we could just
@stencil_labs I ride so hard for Tern, it's fantastic, but please let's make `tern web serve` act better on mobile screen sizes, and fix the soft keyboard and swipe scrolling!
