Hardware looks scary until you break it down into small steps. So I built an app that takes you through Arduino one circuit at a time.
Made with Opus 5.5

La velocidad de la escalada es tremenda. Cómo controlar semejante volumen es el nuevo habilitador.
New on our Engineering blog: Creating in-house source control.
In May, we merged around 2,500 code changes per day. In September, we merged more than 30,000 per day. As a result, we became bottlenecked by developer infrastructure built for human (rather than agent) scale.
Here, we share how we built a new version control system—and fully migrated our monorepo from git—in five months: anthropic.com/engineering/re…

This is the capital of robotics! 🌁
Silicon Valley is home to so many physical AI companies that you could spend a month visiting them and still not see even 10% of them (trust me, I tried).
So, the Bay Area is the world's leading ecosystem for robotics startups, bringing together top AI talent, top universities, experienced founders, and unmatched access to capital.
The region is anchored by Stanford University and University of California, Berkeley, two of the world's top universities for AI and robotics. They produce a constant stream of researchers, founders, and breakthrough technologies.
The Bay Area is also home to many of the companies shaping the future of robotics and AI, including @Figure_robot, @physical_int, @GeneralistAI, and major AI labs such as @OpenAI, or @GoogleDeepMind.
This concentration of talent makes it easy for startups to recruit experienced engineers and collaborate with leaders in embodied AI.
Not mentioning that it is also home to leaders such as @NVIDIARobotics, whose headquarters and leadership in AI chips power much of today's robotics revolution, and Tesla, whose work on autonomous driving and humanoid robots has created a deep pool of robotics, AI, and manufacturing talent.
Perhaps its biggest advantage is access to capital, talent and ambition.
The Bay Area has the world's deepest network of venture capital firms, serial entrepreneurs, and technical leaders who are willing to fund bold, long-term robotics companies.
In the comments I'll post the companies from the ecosystem.
‼️ Note that Bay Area has >300 robotics companies, research labs, and innovation hubs, so this is a curated selection of the notable product companies, not an exhaustive census!
P.S. I'm constantly working on improving these maps, so if your company is missing, please DM me with basic info about the co, and I will include it in the next release.
P.S.2 I have last open slots for my December RoboTour in the Bay Area, if you want to create content together and show the world what are you cooking, dm! :)

So cool. The future of learning
Introducing Anatomy
Describe a machine in one line. Claude brings it to life.
- Interactive isometric wireframes you can rotate, inspect and explore
- WebGL shaders for fire, water, plasma and more
- Real 3D motion, with individual parts that rotate and move
Install it as an agent skill. Fully open source.

The guy who invented Amazon Prime disappeared for six years. He came back this week with $250 million and a factory that turns lines of code into tiny working machines. Type different code, a different machine comes out the other end.
That sounds fake. Here's why it took six years.
A chip fab is the most precise factory humans have ever built, and it makes exactly one kind of thing. Flat silicon that processes information. The moment you want moving parts, multiple materials, or real 3D structure, you leave the fab for a world where getting one new device into production takes years and tens of millions of dollars. Engineers call it one product, one process. It's the reason micro-machines never got their Moore's Law.
Holden's Matter Compiler kills the per-product process entirely. Features down to a few microns, no new tooling, and the system measures and corrects every step while it builds, then feeds what it learned into the next design.
His first product is the tell on how sharp the strategy is.
PrimeSwitch is a 150-amp relay for 800-volt power in AI data centers. It opens in roughly 50 microseconds, about 1,000x faster than a normal contactor. So the first thing to come out of a universal factory is aimed at the one market where demand is basically infinite and a faster switch means less fried hardware.
Neal Stephenson wrote the Matter Compiler as fiction in 1995. Holden just shipped the first real product out of one, and it's a light switch for AI data centers.
After six years in stealth, Atomic Machines is out. Our mission: on-demand, universal command of matter. First beachhead: the Matter Compiler, an AI-native manufacturing system that builds working micro-machines from code alone. No per-product tooling. No process development. Different code, different machine.

🤯🇦🇷 COSAS QUE PROBABLEMENTE NO SABÍAS SOBRE LIONEL MESSI…
1️⃣ Si hicieras 140 regates exitosos por temporada durante 22 años, llegarías a 3,080.
Messi: 3,368. 👑
2️⃣ Si marcaras 5 goles desde fuera del área por temporada durante 18 años, llegarías a 90.
Messi: 96. 👑
3️⃣ Si jugaras 2 finales por temporada durante 22 años y marcaras en una de ellas cada temporada, tendrías 22 goles en finales.
Messi: 35. 👑
4️⃣ Si fueras elegido MVP del partido 20 veces por temporada durante 20 años, tendrías 400 premios MOTM.
Messi: 406. 👑
5️⃣ Si disputaras 5 Mundiales y generaras 4 goles por edición, sumarías 20 contribuciones.
Messi: 21. 👑
6️⃣ Si ganaras 2 títulos por temporada durante 22 años, conseguirías 44 trofeos.
Messi: 46. 👑
7️⃣ Si dieras 18 asistencias por temporada durante 20 años, llegarías a 360.
Messi: 377. 👑
8️⃣ Si sumaras 50 contribuciones de gol por temporada durante 24 años, alcanzarías 1,200.
Messi: 1,223. 👑
Y luego te preguntas cómo es que alguien puede mantener semejantes números durante TANTOS AÑOS…
🇦🇷🐐 MESSI ES UNA ANOMALÍA DEL FÚTBOL. UN JUGADOR QUE PROBABLEMENTE NO VOLVEREMOS A VER.

I asked Claude Opus 5.5 to explain how a rocket engine works by building an interactive Raptor 3 you can take apart in your browser.
Cut it open, follow the oxygen and the methane through both turbopumps, then throttle it and watch the shock diamonds move.

Mirá @ajsaenz impresionante!
I asked Opus 5.5 to explain camera focus by building an interactive lens lab
Here's what it came up with after 1 hour 26 minutes in one shot, $25.66 API cost

Move the focus ring and you can see the glass elements shift the sharp plane through the scene
