@_arohan_ I don't understand p(doom)=0.

It significantly overestimates the security at the least secured nuclear country/site, and underestimates the resources a large enough militia

noul is my new favourite word

[Nishith Rastogi @nishith_rastogi]

Pretty cool stuff

RELEASE DAY

After almost 10 years of hard work, tireless research, and a dive deep into the kernels of computer science, I finally realized a dream: running a high-level language on GPUs. And I'm giving it to the world!

Bend compiles modern programming features, including:

- Lambdas with full closure support

- Unrestricted recursion and loops

- Fast object allocations of all kinds

- Folds, ADTs, continuations and much more

To HVM2, a new runtime capable of spreading that workload across 1000's of cores, in a thread-safe, low-overhead fashion. As a result, we finally have a true high-level language that runs natively on GPUs!

Here's a quick demo:

TIL : Attritable

[Palmer Luckey @PalmerLuckey]

Everyone watching Iran's state-run TV news program probably noticed they picked up an Anduril Dive-LD, our mass-produced attritable submarine.

This particular vehicle has been swimming in CENTCOM for months, successfully operating in support of American forces for thousands of hours. It was explicitly designed to operate in environments too dangerous for humans where capture is an expected possibility. I can't get into the details, but it provided significant value for months before capture.

Rest in peace, little buddy.

JUST IN: NVIDIA's $12,930,300,000 acquisition of Hugging Face contains an easter egg. The number 129,303 is the decimal conversion of Unicode point U+1F917.

What a ridiculous dark pattern in @WHOOP membership cancellation flow, you need to take a Survey to cancel? 6 step survey to reach cancel button. If I wasn't sure to cancel, that would make me very sure @willahmed

[Max Kan @maxkan]

Jalepeno is the best example we have so far of extremely high roi token spend by a large enterprise to create an entirely new business line.

No surprise that it came first from OpenAI/Anthropic.

[Nishith Rastogi @nishith_rastogi]

@levelsio That is also how much you lose in about a day if you have sentry and other safety features on. So sun is literally standing gaurd for me, I will take that

[TJ Parker⚡️ @tjparker]

I maintain my position that investor updates are dumb.

Either you have a small group of investors and you keep them updated informally and / or via board meetings.

Or a long list of investors in which case you’re sending a forwardable email with all your company metrics?

[Stephen R. C. Hicks @SRCHicks]

Only slightly exaggerated.

[Nishith Rastogi @nishith_rastogi]

@bryan_johnson @_katetolo Go for a walk

[Nishith Rastogi @nishith_rastogi]

Insane uptake!

[Adalat AI (YC F26) @Adalat_AI]

4/ Today: 11+ states, 6,000+ courtrooms, ~25% of India's district judiciary.

Sikkim became India's first fully paperless state judiciary this year. Kerala runs statewide on our tools. Andhra Pradesh goes statewide in October.

@Anot It will might be SSI, but why the name 0xAlpha then :)

[Nishith Rastogi @nishith_rastogi]

Who is this and how are they cooking so hard

[OpenCode @opencode]

Ox Alpha (stealth model) is free for the next week

- 1M Context
- Multi-modal
- Zero Data Retention

Generous rate limits, near unlimited usage

We have capacity for 100T tokens per day, lets see what you can do

[Nishith Rastogi @nishith_rastogi]

@Anot Won’t mind it being GLM, I am loaded up on 2513, but given 100T token mention, maybe not

[Nishith Rastogi @nishith_rastogi]

On the contrary doesn’t seem worth the trade at all, 15 Years of coffee even when invested well ~35K, or about a basic new car. Not even in the same order of lost productivity or happiness

[Austin Lieberman @LiebermanAustin]

I'm a fan of buying coffee every once in a while, but this is a great visualization showing you how much that everyday habit (replace coffee with lunch, etc) is actually costing you over 20 years.

[Chris Bakke @ChrisJBakke]

I think if they just rebrand “data centers” as “vape shops” Americans will love the idea of one coming to their town

[Gergely Orosz @GergelyOrosz]

If you've not built your own AI coding harness by now, are you even a serious tech company?

[Nishith Rastogi @nishith_rastogi]

@matanSF Point being that an agent can exceed in capability of the human in charge, and end up executing a step, not envisioned prior by human in intent

[Nishith Rastogi @nishith_rastogi]

@matanSF He asked to check for possibility. Then, *worse than expected* security posture on the waitlist app, allowed for an irreversible change, on probe.
