The Pragmatic Leader & Builder

London, Greater London, Englan
If you are a backend engineer and don't wanna feel like lagging behind. Starting point of understanding it pragmatically: growwwithme.substack.com/p/t… #aiagents #orchestration
Google CEO, Sundar Pichai: "If you don't learn to how to orchestrate agents now, you'll spend 2027 catching up to people who started today" In 30 minutes he explains why the best engineers stopped writing code and started running agents. Watch the interview, then save the exact setup below 👇

This is so true!

I have been using an LLM day-to-day for more than a year! Video generation is still largely unsolved. Picsart seems to have generated this with a minimal prompt. wdyt? #picsartpartner @Picsart

Software factory lifecycle done right! #softwarefactory #ai
Je suis choqué comment ça rend bien :D

Feeling of ambition and immense motivation start from here!
One of the worst feelings in life is knowing you're meant for more and doing nothing about it.

@all Hey, if you are a PhD-level expert in the field and want a passive stream of income, do ping me. I have a community referral.

That’s some jump! Legal is still the largely unsolved problem in knowledge work.
Introducing Gemini 4 Argon – our new frontier model. It’s built for complex workflows across coding, enterprise knowledge work, and cybersecurity defense – rolling out today to a set of trusted testers through our Fairwind Program.

Hard to put in action though @tferriss any tips
If you don’t prioritize, everything seems urgent and important. If you define the single most important task for each day, almost nothing seems urgent or important.

1/ Every engineer in the company has an AI license now. The dashboard is green — seats, logins, prompts, all up. Business output is flat. That's the adoption trap. 🧵

2/ Buying the tool isn't buying the behavior change. Most teams bolt AI beside the workflow instead of inside it: open chat tab, paste prompt, copy answer back into the same old process. The interface changed. The work didn't.

Another milestone!
We’re sharing a solution to the Navier-Stokes Millennium Prize Problem, one of the deepest problems at the frontier of mathematics. The proof was produced by a group of agents, using an OpenAI next-generation model significantly more capable than GPT-6 Astra. The problem concerns whether the description of smooth three-dimensional fluid motion modeled by the Navier-Stokes equations can break down. It has remained unresolved for roughly 90 years.

What’s yours Trust me on this insights. I’m 33 Trust me on this: For low ambiguity problems you can loose the control and have parasympathetic system take over. #happiness
I'm 42. Trust me on this: The answer to life, the universe and everything is being in the right place at the right time.

100% great work @dexhorthy and team!
/show-me is a phenomenal skill Makes PR descriptions extremely easy to read Basically a toolbox of "nice ways to look at code" Nice work, @dexhorthy github.com/humanlayer/skills…

All the type of coding. If I draw 2x2 matrix ambiguity and complexity I personally feel ‘coding’ typing the md files or pseudo code is still need for top right quadrant. Wdyt @davidfowl ? Is that not the case for you love to hear your thoughts 😇
Typing code is absolutely over.

Yet another model and new baseline
GPT-6 Astra is here. We hope it will begin to enable a new generation of entrepreneurship, scientific discovery, and building. We believe it is the best model in the world for computer use, professional work, science, coding, cybersecurity, and more. It took us some extra time to ensure that we could meet the safety and alignment standards required for this capability level, but we think you’ll find it worth the wait. It scores 98% on FrontierMath Tier 4, 99.9% on ARC-AGI 3, and 100% on ExploitBench.

Thanks for liberating it from Cloudflare!
I want to share how I have developed celld - because it's a bit different and it's working well for me. You might have noticed that the github.com/denoland/celld repo is pretty bare - this is because it's an export of a much larger private repo: denoland/celld.dev This larger repo contains: an llm-wiki with an enormous amount of design docs, a large test suite, a spec written in TLA+, the code for the website, scripts for spinning up fleets of celld instances on various clouds and running tests against them, and a speculative centralized managed control plane that I might someday release as a commercial product. My llm-wiki is modified to fit my workflow - diff here gist.github.com/ry/c56dfa7b1… I find llm-wiki extremely useful for gathering context. Reviewing wiki/design/ is a primary development activity. celld is open source, but the development happens in private. The test suite and design docs are private. Why do this? First of all, I don't need the public following my every commit - it's oversharing. Secondly, in the age of coding agents, I don't really need external contributors. I'll always appreciate a patch, but most properly reported issues are one-shottable solutions. Third, it's just a bit of IP that might be valuable someday. I do a lot of experiments with celld on Vultr with a VPC. I'll spin up between 2 and 10 VMs at a time, run some experiment, and usually try to tell some story via a chart of some sort (one below). My own coding agent setup is ssh/tmux to mac mini, with various codex and claude sessions running. I don't use an enormous number - something like 2-4 at a time. (Why a mac mini? idk someone just gave me it)

Fun times 🏃🏻
I did not expect it to be THIS fun watching robot olympics 😂
