Good software engineers see AI as a tool to build more Good mathematicians see AI as an extinction event Tells you a lot about the state of academia

Why is everyone having a meltdown about this? AI didn’t learn some new factoring algo, it ported some code to run on GPUs and ran it on a ridiculous amount of compute

If all these ex Messari employees had spent as much time building the company as they do now pushing their bags Selkis would have the money to be running Germany

is it memory-bound or compute-bound? you have to call it

This feels like the day the Bitter Lesson, died. Just scaling compute is no longer the path to easy returns. The frontier is now algorithmic cleverness, researcher taste and figuring out how to do more with less. No more blindly throwing compute scale at the problem to win

I think we need more clear definitions on AI-assisted coding. Vibe coding is the “prompt-in product out” form of AI use, where the user just defines an end state (e.g., screenshot or description) and the AI makes all the decisions. Useful and accessible to everyone, but limited in scope of things you can achieve. Agentic engineering, on the other hand, is when an engineer works step by step to design, implement, refine, and maintain a codebase. More complicated, requires engineering skills, sometimes you have to investigate the code, but can ship scalable software.
Vibe coding is just coding now. Hand-writing code is the real vibe coding.

This must go so unbelievably hard if you don’t understand markets
1/ Synth's HFT team has found that @Kalshi’s 15-min BTC market is beginning to predict subsequent BTC moves on @binance and all other CEXs. And strength of this predictive relationship has grown materially throughout 2026 (see image). @Kalshi is becoming the venue for BTC price discovery on short time horizons. 🧵

Taking Anthropic’s stated values and beliefs seriously: choosing to become a publicly traded company is an enormous compromise. It is perhaps the most corrosive incentive structure they could willingly place themselves in.
