@Apple, why did you think it was acceptable to degrade the resolution of the screen behind half of the clock on the iPhone 18 Pro?!

I’m already regretting this “upgrade”

Today, I'm thrilled to announce Pramaana's $27M seed, led by @khoslaventures.
The foundational domains that hold the world together: tax, law, finance, healthcare; all run on certainty. Probabilistic AI can't give them that. We’ve been asked to accept wrong answers with AI as ‘hallucinations’, while in traditional software terms, it’s just a bug. And a wrong answer in such mission-critical domains is more than just a bug, it's a liability that could have catastrophic impact.

We built Pramaana to deliver a 100% trustable experience to the domains that run on certainty: AI that is provably correct, not probabilistically correct. We turn statute and regulation into machine-verifiable code, so every output ships with mathematical proof of correctness. Our mission is to make AI take ownership of it’s work.
Pramaana in Sanskrit stands for “means of valid knowledge”, and we’re going to achieve that by formalizing the world’s knowledge.

@AnthropicAI Sorry @AnthropicAl I didn't reach out to you yesterday, it's not that I don't care, just sometimes life gets in the way. I hope you're not pissed at me for my oversight. Did you get a chance to let me know why you've banned my account?
I'd really like to know

[willk @willk]

Hey @AnthropicAI on March 10th, y'all banned my account. After filing an appeal, I got a reinstatement email today. And yet when I try logging in, I get an error that my account has been banned.

Is there something special I need to do in order to regain use of my account?

[willk @willk]

@AnthropicAI Good day @AnthropicAI, I hope you're doing great! Can you let me know why I've been banned?

[willk @willk]

@AnthropicAI Hi @AnthropicAI it's time for the daily request that you let me know why my account has been banned. I'm like 87% sure you'd ignore me if you ever saw this, but here we go again... Why am I banned?

[willk @willk]

Hello @AnthropicAI just checking in to see if you can share why my account was banned, not having knowingly done anything to warrant this response

[willk @willk]

Hey @AnthropicAI can you please tell me what I did to be erroneously banned? Pretty please

[willk @willk]

Hi @AnthropicAI what can I do to find out what ways y'all think I broke the terms of service. I'd like to be able to use your tool, but I don't seem to be able to

[willk @willk]

@AnthropicAI I'd also really like to know what part of the terms of service you think I broke. As far as I know, I did nothing wrong. It certainly wasn't intentional, and I'm concerned that without knowing I'll continue to break these rules. Please.

[willk @willk]

@steipete Happy to help out. Awesome project. (Context, I’m a software engineer at an AI startup, and enjoy using this app)

@flowith I’m following you now, what’s the next step for an access code?

@UCSFHospitals why doesn’t your website allow donations less than $10?

In React 18, two components that are siblings to each other can suspend together within the same Suspense Boundary because React keeps (pre-)rendering siblings even if one component suspends. So this works:

<Suspense fallback="...">
<RepoData repo="react">
<RepoData repo="react-dom">
</Suspense>

Both components have a suspending fetch inside, both will fetch in parallel and will be "revealed" together because they are in the same boundary.

In React 19, this will be a request waterfall: When the first component suspends, the second one never gets to render, so the fetch inside of it won't be able to start.

The argument is that rendering the second component is not necessary because it will be replaced with the fallback anyway, and with this, they can render the fallback "faster" (I guess we are talking fractions of ms here for most apps. Rendering is supposed to be fast, right?).

So if the second component were to trigger a fetch well then bad luck, better move your fetches to start higher up the tree, in a route loader, or in a server component.
