this is the most insane part. o3's architecture is a Alpha-Zero-style search applied to natural language, ARC-AGI's speculates in their public blog post.

ai tools like devin could spur the adoption of stricter languages like reasonml/effect-ts. much of the perceived overhead is handled by ai and the extra guardrails help devin navigate towards a working solution.

one the best things react has done for software engineering as a whole is significantly speed up the mainstream adoption of functional programming paradigms

a major b2c lesson I've learned recently: be ruthless about only using your database for "active data" backstory: we've grown quickly over the last few months. we reached over 1B user posts, and our DB size was measured in TBs.

The more I read about ATproto, the more I come to appreciate the craft that went into BlueSky's UX. There are a lot rough edges that had to be smoothed over to achieve the UX that it has, e.g. running a PDS node on behalf of the user as a default, domain verification without PDS self hosting, etc.

Cheating on Advent of Code w/ AI - a lot of people are talking about this. It dawned on me that a cool concept would be an alternate version specifically *for* AI. Imagine: everyone submits agents that race to complete the problem as soon as it's released. I would participate in this.

One takeaway from the data scraping saga: The majority of BlueSky users how no clue platform works. And that's a good thing. It means it's achieved normie adoption.

regardless of what you think about data scraping, alpindale should have never been banned imo.

Releasing: dataset of 280M Bluesky posts After much deliberation I've decided that now is right time. Today, I'm sharing with all AI researchers a free and open-access API containing ALL Bluesky posts. And yes, users are NOT able to opt out. Link below.

huh

Didn't realize react native web could be be this smooth, damn
