Today, we share a breakthrough on the planar unit distance problem, a famous open question first posed by Paul Erdős in 1946.

For nearly 80 years, mathematicians believed the best possible solutions looked roughly like square grids.

An OpenAI model has now disproved that belief, discovering an entirely new family of constructions that performs better.

This marks the first time AI has autonomously solved a prominent open problem central to a field of mathematics.

One thing that LLM-based development brought that I didn't predict but makes perfect sense:

There's hardly any "ecosystem envy" anymore.

If there's a great library in {Python, TypeScript, C#, Java}, with unit tests, and you want it in Dart — just ask an AI to port it for you.

A player named @Voxkiddo made this banger of a vid. It puts in-game hints next to their usage in practice. I couldn't be happier — it's probably better at communicating the game's depth than any of the trailers I've put out myself.

People are sleeping on Flutter. We just added 27 configurable shaders to FlutterFlow. Tweakable with sliders. Animate on scroll, tap, or hover. Bind to your theme and they just work.

One codebase. Runs on iOS, Android, macOS, Windows, Linux, and web.

Show me another framework that does this.
