First they laugh at you.

Then they fight you.

Then you win. Or you're delusional.

please stop what you’re doing and watch this shit

The only answer to managing AI is more AI

[Can Vardar @icanvardar]

unpopular but i think code review is dead

not because agents write good code because nobody actually reads 2000 line diffs and we all know it

Beauty in the process

Beauty in the result

@JacksonKernion it doesn’t matter. Because as soon as I found out it was AI I would hate it.

It’s like if you tasted two burgers and both tasted the same and then they told you “Burger A is made of meat and Burger B is made of horse feces!” You’d still spit it out.

1. Model
2. Glossary
3. Code

We use the power of AI to reduce drift and conflict. No longer rely on code as the source of truth.

[Matt Pocock @mattpocockuk]

As expected, the thing that is blowing people's minds most in my course is not the agentic stuff.

It's the DDD stuff - domain-driven design.

Building a ubiquitous language, using it with the agent, and refactoring the code to use it.

Just bonkers how good it is

[Sisu Onena @SisuOnena]

Yes. No taste is waste. @grok

Are we over estimating the speed of AI diffusion?

For a century before steam, ships went where the wind let them. This video uses the CLIWOC database: more than 250,000 noon positions copied from Dutch, British, Spanish and French ships' logbooks between 1750 and 1855. First every voyage is folded into a single year, so the fleets move with the seasons. Then the tracks build up into the full century.
The routes are wind routes. Ships bound for the Cape swung far west towards Brazil to get round the calms and the southeast trade winds, then ran east before the westerlies. Dutch ships for Batavia followed the Brouwer route through the Roaring Forties before turning north to Java. British ships fill the Indian Ocean on their way to India and China, and Spanish ships head for the Río de la Plata and the Caribbean.

How do I use @grok to overcome my lack of charisma and comms skills?

[Muad'Deep - e/acc @agiatreides]

If you're 150 IQ without charisma or comms skills you are about to be unleashed by ai in a way that will rock the world

The plural of anecdote is data—if the anecdotes are properly sampled

[Jesse Tinsley @JesseTinsley]

We worked directly with the X team on recruiting after Elon acquired Twitter in 2022.

It was one of the best companies I've ever recruited for... and for a reason most people wouldn't expect.

Elon is incredibly polarizing (surprise lol).

Candidates either loved him or hated him. There was almost nobody in the middle willing to take a job there just for a paycheck. And that turned out to be an enormous competitive advantage.

People effectively opted themselves in or out of the company before we even interviewed them.

The people who joined knew exactly what they were signing up for. Long hours, intense expectations, relentless execution and a founder who demands an extraordinary amount from his team.

Most companies spend millions trying to manufacture "culture" through interviews, assessments, and HR.

Elon's reputation did much of that filtering for free.

The irony is that the very thing people criticize about his leadership style is also one of its greatest recruiting advantages.

The strongest cultures aren't built by appealing to everyone. They're built by being so unapologetically yourself that the wrong people never want to join your company in the first place.

@grok Let's start a space manufacturing business. What product should we start with?

@grok summarize the paper

[Carlos E. Perez @IntuitMachine]

Thousands of Google engineers use this open-source plugin to draft specs with deep-context agents and stress-test them with zero-context subagents before writing code.

@grok - your answer and the best answers in the comments

[Denise 🇺🇸 @NoDMsPerfavore]

What's a polite way to say, "I'm not having this conversation with you because your entire understanding of the subject is built on so many layers of misinformation that correcting you would require a full factory reset of your worldview and I simply do not have the desire or time"?

The secret to motivated employees - hire motivated people and don't demotivate them

Politicians win be a combination of coalition expansion and motivation, which are in conflict

Poasters win by conflict

@grok

[Derek Thompson @DKThomp]

One lesson of the last few days of commentary is that, in some key ways, politicians are just much smarter than posters.

One eg: Left of center twitter is so factionalized that many commentators are better at seeing how independent voters can be pastiches of different ideologies than they are at seeing that Democratic politicians can also be pastiches. So when Talarico talks about inequality like Bernie, about housing like abundance, and about energy/gender/immigration like someone deliberately moderating previous statements to win the Dallas suburbs, each faction claims total victory by isolating one part of his message to say “see, he’s with MY team, not YOUR team, you LOSE.”

In the end it’s maybe kind of harmless. Factions gonna faction, etc. But, the politicians clearly understand something many of the posters don’t: factions are like ingredients, and smart political campaigns combine ingredients to fit the local political consumer.
