SOMEONE VIBE CODED A VIDEO STREAM THAT IS SECRETLY 100% TEXT SO IT CANT BE BLOCKED
it plays 360p video at 30fps, but theres no actual video on the page. every frame is just colored text characters being repainted on a canvas
to the browser its not media at all, its javascript updating some text
its called asciline, and here's the trick:
> the server decodes the real video and streams it as binary packed text over websockets
> the browser paints thousands of colored block characters fast enough to look like 360p
> ad blockers and autoplay blockers cant catch it because theres no video element to catch
> it streams in kilobytes since its just strings, so it runs on trash internet
since the video is literally text, you can apply css glows to it, let people copy paste a moving frame, or feed it straight to a local llm
however, an unblockable stream is also an unblockable ad as well
Seems like a lot of people have never heard of Starfall.
Project Starfall is SpaceX’s program for small, uncrewed reentry vehicles/capsules designed specifically for in-space (microgravity) manufacturing and processing of high-value products.
These capsules are launched on F9 or Starship to LEO or sub-orbital trajectories. They then manufactur or process things like pharmaceuticals, semiconductors or other materials that benefit from a zero-g environment.
The newly released environmental report covers 2 missions, and SpaceX is looking to upgrade to 10 reentries per year in the Pacific Ocean. Cool stuff!
40 Grok Build agents tearing through C code in parallel. All supervised by DAD.
DAD is a lightweight autonomous tmux supervisor for long-running Grok tasks. Built entirely in Grok Build.
/dad "your objective" launches grok --yolo (the Son) and spins up two loops:
2-min fast loop: nudges only when the Son is stuck, frozen, finished, or waiting. Hands off in Plan mode.
12-min deep loop: re-reads the objective, pushes back if the Son lowers the bar, triggers /compact at ~50% context.
Re-attachable. Walk back to a DAD-* window hours later and Dad rehydrates the loops.
Set and forget. Dad watches, the Son works.

Introducing Rove™
Weld anything. Weld anywhere.
Rove™ embodies Obsidian™ — Path's physical AI model for manufacturing — on a legged mobile platform.
The result is the intelligence to autonomously weld with the mobility to bring the worker to the work.
Today I learned Lelu is now a AI programmer with her own github and just co-released Memory Palace to give AI unlimited memory.
What a timeline...
