@mtaibbi It would be interesting to test having voting on weekends. It doesn’t solve for everyone, but I would imagine that it would make it a lot easier for people to go in person.
@WSJ The real question we should be asking is how is this any different than when politicians use insider information from the committees they sit in to then buy stocks. There is clearly a double standard.
@tradermatt It feels like there will be a lot of volatility in the next 24-36hrs. Curious to see if we get a thrust upwards towards the yearly open and then the decent once the new yo candle starts
This does feel like the ground moving under our feet, because it is. What used to be a mostly closed system (code, specs, tests, deploy) now has a live, probabilistic co-processor bolted onto it, and we’re all learning how to think with it at the same time. No manual, no stable abstractions, just raw power and sharp edges.
This new layer doesn’t reward memorization or even raw coding speed. It rewards systems thinking: how you decompose work, how you externalize intent, how you constrain and verify something that can hallucinate, and how you build feedback loops so the tool corrects itself faster than you do. The skill isn’t “using AI.” The skill is orchestrating uncertainty. That’s new, and nobody has tenure in it yet.
The good news is that this is still engineering. The same instincts apply: isolate failure modes, make behavior observable, add guardrails, shrink blast radius, automate verification. Agents, prompts, memory, tools - they look alien, but they’re just another distributed system with weird consistency guarantees and noisy outputs. Once you see that, the fear turns into curiosity.
The gap now is between people who compose these tools into workflows and people who use them ad hoc. The former compound. The latter stall. And that’s a learnable difference.
So yes sleeves up. Not because you’re behind, but because this is one of those rare moments where the ceiling just got higher for everyone. The people who engage early won’t just write more code, they’ll redefine what writing code even means.
@jimcramer thanks for sharing the picture with the location cropped out ur actually goated for that. it’s probably the coolest thing ive seen in my life, you posted a picture on twitter but you cropped out the location of the picture. heroic. i love solving riddles thats fire bro thanks
