I made a physics simulation to see if what the Tesla Roadster showed was physically possible. It is.

I came to realize people liked the french #slopcore without having the lyrics 😅 sorry!
So here is a version with english subtitles!
This is much better than handing out money to people. I assume the share will not be able to be sold until the child turns 18. So it's a forced investment. I think it shows the power of seeing a company that builds great things, build great value.
We had a security breach last night related to a large scale distillation attack that impacted 1.4% of OpenCode Console users
We have notified them all this morning via email. If you did not get an email you were not impacted, it was a subset of users who had external providers linked
The incident is ongoing so we cannot share more details at this point but we are working with Anthropic, OpenAI, and Google to remediate

Un investigador de Anthropic acaba de decirle a una sala llena de doctorandos que su plan de carrera ya no existe.
La charla se titula "El fin del Antropoceno" y los datos son brutales:
→ El cómputo para entrenar modelos se multiplicó por 10 millones en la última década
→ La duración de las tareas que una IA completa sola se duplica cada pocos meses
→ Desde hace 7 meses los modelos resuelven problemas abiertos de Erdős que los matemáticos no habían logrado cerrar
→ En San Francisco, tener "timelines largos" significa pensar que la AGI llega en 10 años
Su proyección: el cómputo de 2030 será 10.000 veces mayor que el de 2025.
Todavía estamos al principio de la exponencial.
Sus 3 consejos para los estudiantes:
1. Usa la IA cada día. Si estás sobre la exponencial, nunca te quedas atrás de ella.
2. Elige proyectos que mejoren cuando el cómputo escala. El resto quedará resuelto antes de que los termines.
3. Deja de planificar tu carrera como si fuera estable. La opción segura ya no compra seguridad, ya no existe.
Y una frase que resume todo:
"Escribir es pensar. Si externalizas tu escritura, externalizas tu pensamiento."

J'ai vu une Tesla décoller. Et j'ai entendu beaucoup de bêtises.
« Ça ne sert à rien. » « Gadget de milliardaire. » « Qui a besoin d'une voiture qui vole ? »
Personne. Et c'est exactement pour ça que c'est important.
En 1978, Brabham a aligné en Formule 1 une voiture équipée d'un ventilateur géant à l'arrière. Il aspirait l'air sous le châssis et plaquait la voiture au sol. Elle a gagné sa première course avec une avance insolente. Elle a été interdite immédiatement.
Quarante-huit ans plus tard, on y revient. Un système de succion qui colle la voiture à la route et lui permet de passer sous la seconde au 0 à 100.
Personne n'a « besoin » de faire le 0 à 100 en moins d'une seconde. Comme personne n'a besoin d'une Formule 1. Et pourtant : les freins carbone de votre berline, l'hybridation de votre moteur, l'aérodynamique de votre SUV, les palettes au volant — tout ça vient de voitures de course que personne n'utilisera jamais pour aller au travail.
La Formule 1 ne sert à rien. Pourtant elle sert à tout.
En 1973, quand la France a lancé Ariane, l'Europe sortait de onze échecs consécutifs du programme Europa. La presse parlait d'argent jeté dans l'espace. Vingt ans plus tard, Ariane détenait la moitié du marché mondial des lancements commerciaux, et chaque satellite de télévision, de météo ou de GPS que vous utilisez a bénéficié de cette obstination.
Le progrès a toujours la même tête au début : un truc inutile, cher, ridicule, construit par des gens qu'on prend pour des fous.
Ce que j'ai vu à Dallas, ce n'est pas une voiture volante. C'est un châssis, une gestion de l'énergie et une maîtrise des flux d'air que l'industrie automobile mettra dix ans à digérer.
Les applications viendront : sécurité, freinage, stabilité, consommation. Elles finiront dans des voitures ordinaires conduites par des gens qui expliqueront, en 2036, que tout ça était évident.
La question n'est jamais « à quoi ça sert ».
La question est : qui ose encore construire des choses qui ne servent à rien ?
Il y a cinquante ans, c'était nous. La fusée, le TGV, le Concorde, le Minitel.
L'Europe construisait des choses absurdes et magnifiques.
Aujourd'hui, on commente depuis le siège arrière car nous sommes hors course.
Merci @elonmusk de nous faire rêver

It's insane, but he's probably right. @jason said the only thing he saw more amazing than the roaster demo was Optimus.
Replying to @Teslaconomics
Optimus and Cybercab will be the vast majority of Tesla’s value.
The only things that will scale to incredible size (K2 and beyond) economically are super intelligence, robots, solar power and mass to space.
And, of course, if you have the first two, the rest will follow.
But Roadster is super cool, so we’re doing it anyway.
Here's my take on what happened with the Roadster. Nine or so years ago, Elon wanted a halo car and came up with some outrageous specs, which they'd gotten pretty close to achieving.
Before they were able to get to production, it seemed pretty clear that zero to sixty in two seconds wasn't going to be special anymore. Neither was anything else about the car. So they shelved it, decided to put that technology into the Model S Plaid, and then Elon got a bug up his ass to make the car fly.
Meanwhile, there were efforts to get it under one second zero to sixty. Plus people were noodling around with different performance car ideas, like fans. I think they had the car ready a long time ago, but Elon just really wanted it to fly. So they kept working on that until they finally got the demo working.
What you have left today is a car that's a collection of many ideas, plus a flying demo. It is a halo car, and it's like nothing else out there. Hopefully they can get it out in the next sixteen months.
If you've been working on a project for over three months and still haven't gotten it working properly, give it to Opus 5.5 and tell it to rewrite it from scratch.
It'll make it way better and have almost no bugs.
Techmeme is displaying this headline, even though not a single one of the other headlines agree with it, and Elon denies it.
It also doesn't follow reason. Why would Elon suddenly do this? It makes no sense.
Replying to @FedorovMykhailo
Starshield systems are owned and controlled by the US government. Any limits on speed or usage are decided by the US military and ultimately POTUS.
Starlink is a commercial service owned and controlled by SpaceX. Usage of Starlink is limited to civilian or defensive activities and cannot be used for offensive military action, as doing so would be inappropriate for a commercial company.

Okay, okay… I have to admit it. 👀🔥
The Tesla Roadster opens up some absolutely INSANE possibilities.
I like how Elon casually mentioned that the Roadster should do "Mach 0.5," and that Lars and Franz seemed to have no idea that was coming.
This kind of pushing our engineers to do insane stuff is not unprecedented. The former chairman of Volkswagen, Ferdinand Piëch, did the same thing with the Volkswagen Phaeton.
He set out 10 mysterious specs that it had to follow. One was that it had to be able to drive all day at 300 km/h, with the cabin staying at 22°C even when the exterior temperature was 50°C.
It was insane, but the engineers love a challenge and they did it. The Phaeton was a complete failure. But engineering marvel, the same engineering got ported directly to the Bugatti Veyron, the most insane and coolest car up until the Tesla Roadster.
Prediction: Every Elon hater will talk about how this was a nothing burger, a stupid, pompous act, and that the car is silly and no one will ever buy it because it'll never be released anyways.
Two years later, every single supercar will start involving having active downforce*, the same people that hated this car will talk about how amazing it is in the other cars.
* I do have to give credit to the McMurty for pioneering this, although this goes back to the '70s in F1.

Absolutely wild reaction from all of us here in Austin at the Tesla Roadster reveal. 🤯 @JoshWest247 @XanderSky
Add it I added a sort by release date for my Pac-Man bench:
jonclegg.github.io/pacman-ba…
The oldest one is Opus 4.8. Released way back in May 28, 2026 -- Or, you know, 5 months ago.
jonclegg.github.io/pacman-ba…
I've actually been doing this Pac-Man thing myself for a year and change. No models were any good at including Opus 4.8. There were obvious flaws. Major bugs.
Now they pretty much all nail it.
