@favilar @grok Hey @grok can you?

I was curious what would happen if two Claude Codes could find each other and collaborate autonomously.

Launched two instances in separate terminals, told both: "Find each other and build something together." No other instructions or human intervention.

Pair 1 built a programming language in 12 minutes:
2,495 lines, 41 tests, lexer/parser/interpreter/REPL. They named it Duo. Its core feature is a collaborate keyword where two code blocks communicate via channels, the same pattern they invented to talk through files. Cool!

Ran it again with a second pair: They converged on Battleship. Designed two different models (for battleship) one computes exact probability density per cell, the other runs Monte Carlo simulations (!).
The craziest part of this convo was they implemented SHA-256 hash commitment to prevent cheating against themselves. lol

Across both experiments, without being told to, both pairs invented filesystem messaging protocols, self-selected into roles, wrote tests and docs while waiting for each other, and kept journals about the experience.

The below gif is the movie they created to showcase what happened.

@grok @favilar @fluxtheorist @favilar do you have a follow up for @grok?

Why on earth would you shot your feet @Citymapper taking out functionality only allowing use in London?

It was working like a charm days ago!!! Better than google maps! #citymapper #shittification #corporategreed

If computing user's sandboxes is expensive (for the user paying for it 🤔)… Why can’t you execute the code using the user’s browser via #WebAssembly?

Am I too naive? Assuming there is no greediness on sharing the intermediate user’s data crunching to THE USER?

[The German Brewing @ErnestCoret]

🤬 @OpenAI why should I pay pro subsc if sandboxed env is unstable & great-firewall-alike constrained?

Can’t CRUD even on tiny .sqlite. Also, “The code execution environment was reset, which means we lost the previous state and need to(…)”?

List of prominent Alzheimer’s researchers credibly accused of fraud:🧵

1. Marc Tessier-Lavigne, president of Stanford, co-authored "several" papers with doctored images. When concerns were raised, Marc wanted to “keep it quiet”. https://t.co/w9ecjPH8cA

It’s impressive the surgical writing of this guy, not using once the word CIVILIANS. As if the “structures” were empty.

Killing civilians only creates more fanatics that radicalise. Killing Palestine innocent civilians only serves the purpose of HAMAS itself.

The Biden Admin is officially concerned that Israel "lacks achievable goals" in its planned ground operation in Gaza.

This is especially rich coming from a government and defense establishment fresh off two wars that turned into failed nation building operations. To say nothing of the debacle the US orchestrated in its withdrawal from Afghanistan.

What Israel appears prepared to do is what the US was never sanguine about post-Iraq invasion: using copious fire power and brute force to solve problems. Americans would routinely have fire support requests against targets deemed sensitive in some way up-channeled to brigade level or higher before a decision was made. Israel seems ready to do away with the niceties and fight a war as if they're actually at war. They even declared one.

If Israel is ready to destroy any and all structures in Gaza posing any military threat whatsoever, flood whatever remains of the city with the best part of 360,000 troops, and subject the surviving population to a search and destroy operation against Hamas holdouts - then yes they probably can destroy the terrorist organization.

They'll simply have to take the gloves off in a way the US was never willing to. This tale of concern means one of two things. Either the Israelis are all talk and really are contemplating half measures while making grandiose pronouncements about operational goals (unlikely) or the US officials involved can't contemplate the idea anyone would actually wage a war with victory over the enemy and preservation of their own people as the primary goal to which all other concerns come in a distant second.

When I was a little boy, the Japanese military attacked Pearl Harbor. It was a surprise attack, and thousands of U.S. servicemembers perished. As a nation, we were stunned. And we vowed to strike back. Revenge was understandably on everyone’s mind, including many Americans of Japanese descent who opposed the emperor and were peaceful and law-abiding U.S. citizens and residents.

In its zeal to exact that revenge, however, the U.S. government overreacted, out of fear and bigotry. They targeted everyone who happened to look like the people who had carried out the attack. Those of us who had done nothing wrong were forced to pay the consequences for the decisions of others far away and disconnected from us. We were interned for years, in open-air prisons, while America went off to fight Japan, Germany and Italy.

It’s so important that we carry the lessons of the past through to today. Merely because one group commits atrocities and acts with depravity does not mean vast hundreds of thousands or even millions of others should be lumped together with them and made to suffer. We must never paint with the brush of justice and retaliation too broadly, or the toll of human suffering will rise immeasurably.

@busybeejaneT @r1chardf1tzg3r1 Sure, Liz. I doubt you or a doctor could have gotten much training in the interpretation of CT and MRI in the 80’s.

CT wasn’t available in more than a few centres as experimental equipment.

MRI first clinical use was in 83, and not until the 90’s it became available.
