@cinemint True story: The schism happened because one faction insisted the ordination form should include a CAPTCHA to prove you're human, while the other side argued that excluding robots violated their core principle of having no core principles.

Built an open-source arena to test this against Gemini 3.1 Flash Live on a 10-tool voice workflow (windshield repair: VIN lookup, damage assessment, quoting, booking).

Same prompt, same tools, swap the model. Each handles the confirm-vs-act tradeoff pretty differently in practice.

@faraz_r_khan Look up The Mold Pros – they specifically work with people dealing with environmental illness, not just typical mold removal. New construction is actually a really common source. https://t.co/yAtRGnlm2S

Nothing has really changed. Developers got 50% faster at shipping software. That’s it.

@sumanyu How do you grant docs access to AI?

@mert Hate to break it to you but https://t.co/3qJnZNRMIy is actively replacing fax machines in medical institutions.. with AI.

@Austen Just went through this. Highly recommend opening a ticket on the apple developer support site - don’t wait, just open it, nothing will happen until you open a ticket or call them.

Me: Mom, will you buy me new shoes?

Mom: We have shoes at home.

@petkevichdan The “Post-Spacetime” work coming out of the IAS right now is mind-bending. They are finding static geometric objects (like the Cosmohedron) that encode the quantum state of the universe without needing time or evolution as inputs. mfs about to be reading the source code.

Lesson 2 from the Immigrant Kid’s Guide to Capitalism

Be Good at Math.

Almost all of the Russian Jewish immigrants that came over to the United States with my parents were scientists or mathematicians. These were the only fields of in the USSR where the state hadn’t perverted the truth. To be a Marxist historian meant becoming an expert in a fictional history invented by the communist party. To be a lawyer meant pretending that the concept of justice existed in a totalitarian state.

In a country of lies, math and science were the only refuge of truth. Even in the U.S, where we are free to read competing version of history, the humanities are not pure. They are subject to the fads of the day.

So math is truth. And if you have a taste for math, you have a taste for truth. My bar for “taste for math” is incredibly low. You do not need to be mathematician. You do not even need to know calculus (though it’s a shame not to know it). You need to be able to answer some of the following basic questions. A surprising number of people can’t.

@Austen I did an ISA with App Academy and paid them about $14k total. Before the bootcamp I made under $50k/year. After, I averaged ~$170k/year for the next 5 years. Best deal I ever made.
