For anyone with endless ideas, this agent age is nirvana as those ideas are met with endless execution, endless exploration. I've never had has much fun working with computers as I do right now. What a time to be alive.

Remote controlling Claude Code at the gym feels like a busy dad cheat code.

the craziest thing about using AIs is that the job didn't get easier, just one part of it. Now it's more time on thinking and less on coding, but the job isn't easier. The thinking: problem solving, designing, prioritizing, managing... that's the whole job now.

Some people are naturally drawn to making computers do stuff, they're already coding. AI is leverage There's a small group of dabblers or dev adjacent folks that will join in too AI grows the dev pool, but only a bit You still need that core itch to build // great convo thread
Replying to @jmdagdelen
I think they had dabbled very lightly, like maybe built a blender script by copy and pasting, but never really programmed. Programming requires a ton of effort to do ANYTHING. It's a very steep learning curve IMO. Just not worth it for most people.

I might be the best use case for AI. I have a reasonable amount of dev experience, am reasonably intelligent, curious and into active learning. I've never learned more and accomplished more technically than I have in the last 12 months.

For me, it's more like, "VR is very cool, but needs to be one of many cool things I'm working on, not the only one"
I'm done with VR. The novelty wore off.

Most of you will say "who the hell needs this?" But like 5% of you will say "where has this been my whole life?" The Reverse Scheduler app I've been building is about to kick off alpha testing 🚀. This tool for Google Calendar helps you plan *backwards* from big events (flights, parties, etc). Make a simple itinerary with what needs to be done, and how long it will take, no last-minute chaos. Sign-up for the alpha here: forms.gle/H3o9kkSums1jiZYAA Reposts appreciated!

The Meta Rayban with display is going to be dope, can't wait to try

live demo failure aside, I like where Meta's going with the AR glasses. These things are going to be huge over the next 5-10 years.

the Meta Rayban path is the correct path to eventual mainstream XR adoption - sneak it up on them

I'm in SF for a couple days, anyone cool I should meet in XR, AI, or other emerging tech?

This is incredible. There are a ton of really interesting applications of this. Excited to get my hands on it.
Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger, Real-time! We are excited to reveal Genie 3, our most capable real-time foundational world model. Fantastic cross-team effort led by @jparkerholder and @shlomifruchter. Below some interactive worlds and capabilities that were highlights for me 🌎👇

I've been casually writing a short sci-fi novel and was stuck on where to take it until mecha-Hitler happened here on X and I now have the inspiration I need for where to take the story. Thanks @grok

I never pick up my VR headset enough, but when I do, I enjoy it immensely To me, it's the friction of putting on the headset that is holding VR back from being mainstream That's why AR glasses are the key to mainstreaming 3D content, because then they'll already be on

Totes, and more millionaires, and just solid upper middle class folks, and comfortable middle class homeowners, and nobody hungry, bankrupt with medical bills, etc. I'm all for more billionaires in a system where everyone gets better. Abundance is the key.
We should have more billionaires

To understand the real concerns around the water pistol toting activists, we need to look at their number one concern: housing costs The latest newsletter: nowandten.substack.com/p/wat…
