@acnewsitics Thanks for telling everyone you’re gay. Good to know.

[Ricky A. Lopez @RALGSD]

@harryjsisson You’re gay. Stfu

[Ricky A. Lopez @RALGSD]

@PierrePoilievre Looked at the map. Not seeing the lane you speak of.

[Ricky A. Lopez @RALGSD]

@MapQuest WTF is Mapquest?

[Ricky A. Lopez @RALGSD]

@fordnation Good luck. It’s ours bitch!

[Ricky A. Lopez @RALGSD]

@GovKathyHochul Too bad ya dumb itch. You belong to US and we decided its name. Enjoy, Karen.

[Ricky A. Lopez @RALGSD]

@MarkJCarney You’re gay. It’s ours.

[Ricky A. Lopez @RALGSD]

@ClaireFosterPHD @AmastrisDratwka @nypost By your logic, you’re a fucking idiot. 3 for 3 kids are dead. That’s 100% death rate. Dumb ass

[Ricky A. Lopez @RALGSD]

@ClaireFosterPHD @nypost WTF.

[Roman Storm 🇺🇸 🌪️ @rstormsf]

@tyler Could you please advocate for my freedom and for the freedom of software developers everywhere, so that they can continue building open-source software without fear while you’re at the White House?

🙏

Thank you.

@rstormsf Fuck NY

@patrickbetdavid Have you not used Opus 5 yet?

[Ricky A. Lopez @RALGSD]

@elonmusk Patiently waiting for you to smoke frontier so I can swap.

[Ricky A. Lopez @RALGSD]

@theo @getcontextdev Enjoy watching your videos for the knowledge drops. Question, As a non-technical “vibe coder”, is there any value in me trying to use T3?

[Ricky A. Lopez @RALGSD]

@rstormsf Yea man it’s crazy. They talk one way which is complete bullshit

[Ricky A. Lopez @RALGSD]

@finkd Just like FB was for everyone during the 2020 elections?

[Ricky A. Lopez @RALGSD]

@EricLDaugh Wipe them off the planet

@Suryanshti777 Pure trash

Me using Claude Opus 4.8 to rename a file

[Suryansh Tiwari @Suryanshti777]

Andrej Karpathy just explained the future of software engineering without directly saying it.

The best AI engineers are no longer “prompting.”

They’re building systems around the agents.

Karpathy’s biggest insight wasn’t:
“Claude can code.”

It was:
LLMs become dramatically better when you force them into disciplined workflows.

That’s why "CLAUDE.md" files are suddenly everywhere.

Not because they’re prompts.

Because they behave like an operating system for the agent.

Karpathy called out the exact problems with AI coding:

- models assume instead of asking
- they overengineer simple tasks
- they hide confusion
- they rewrite unrelated code
- they optimize for completion, not correctness

So developers started encoding rules directly into the workflow:

→ Think before coding
→ Simplicity first
→ Surgical edits only
→ Goal-driven execution

And the results are wild.

People are now running multiple Claude Code agents in parallel like engineering teams:

• one agent researching
• one debugging
• one writing tests
• one optimizing code
• one validating outputs

Not “AI assistance.”

Actual orchestration.

And this part from Karpathy changes everything:

“Don’t tell the model what to do. Give it success criteria and let it loop.”

That is the shift.

From:
“write this function”

To:
“here’s the goal, constraints, tests, and verification system — now iterate until correct.”

The craziest part?

This already feels like a phase shift in engineering.

A lot of developers quietly went from:
80% manual coding → to 80% agent-driven coding in just months.

Not because AI became perfect.

Because the leverage became impossible to ignore.

We’re entering an era where the highest leverage engineers won’t necessarily be the best coders.

They’ll be the people who build the best systems around AI agents.
