All while working 9-5, Opus+Codex is crazy
We know writing a Solana TPU client from scratch is really hard. Handling Agave releases, QUIC quirks, and leader schedule tracking needs constant maintenance.
And while tpu-client-next is a big improvement, some builders still need more control than the standard client can provide 🧵👇
We put together a prompting guide for Claude Opus 4.5 based on extensive internal testing by our research and applied AI teams.
Here's what we've learned so far about getting the best results:
current 🔥 mode:
opus4.5 plan mode + coderabbit PR review = quality codebase
- plan mode: drill down each task, refine as many time as needed, ask it to search online
- coderabbit: let opus reviews the review comments and decides what to keep/fix - opus4.5 is pretty good at this
Gemini 3 is impressive ✨ (pro thinking + Canvas)
Vibe coded a simple realtime exchange UI in just less than 10 chat messages.
React + Tailwinds + TradingView + WebSocket
1 screenshot -> nailed the whole UI
use `select and ask` -> 1 shot functionality
Just wow
FFmpeg makes extensive use of hand-written assembly code for huge (10-50x) speed increases and so we are providing assembly lessons to teach a new generation of assembly language programmers.

My brother in blockchain, there were some leaps taken here. I write this as a user of both ETH & Solana, and a recovering validator sales person:
1) Validator Count ≠ Decentralization: ETH has nearly 1M nodes mainly because it does not support delegation and there is a hard cap of 32 ETH. If Coinbase, Figment, Kraken, Binance could keep all stake on a single validator your node count drops by 330,000. Hell Lido would just run on a single cluster you'd lose 265k more. https://t.co/MRCpCWg1Xb
2) Many Nodes <> Same Provider: Me contracting a validator firm to run 6 nodes has the same effect on decentralization than one node with 192 ETH on it, especially if they're all hosted in one of two clouds.
3) Stake Centralization: The top 10 ETH staking firms account for over 60% of staked ETH - https://t.co/Im3LlbAMMV
4) Cloud Provider Centralization: 36% of ETH nodes are run in Amazon, https://t.co/8uZEvE0Nvm. Include google and you're at 40%. If this much stake sits in two cloud providers your the attack surface isn’t the validator count it’s the cloud concentration.
In Feb 2025 bottom 725 Solana validators accounted for a less than of 3% of stake. Many of the validators that churned out had little or no stake, they weren’t producing blocks or contributing to security. Election results don’t change when people who never cast ballots stop showing up, they're just as safe.
The Solana Virtual Machine (SVM) will stand as one of the most significant contributions in the history of blockchains.
However, there are conflicting definitions, and people cry about the lack of a magical spec.
So, I cleared things up.
