Still just mainly love that we live in a time where a FM will play along with "hey what if I just grew the mosquito repellent skin bacteria in the basement then slathered it on?"

Good buddy Claude out here encouraging my hare brained schemes

In fairness it added suitable caveats by the end

@selentelechia Might already have tried in the category of "stupid lamps", but this made a difference for me

Short version is buy a few extremely bright LED corn bulbs and make your room like summer. Pretty cheap too!

Made a Supersonic Engines web toy . No idea if its accurate but its still just so fun being able to do this sort of thing

Also it's probably right and this is where we're at. What a time to be alive

"Opus 4.5 is like a Waymo. You tell it 'take me from A to B', and it takes you there. After a few of these experiences your brain realizes 'oh. ok. we live in this world now'."

I cannot emphasize enough how much both gemini 3 and opus 4.5 are "oh. ok. we live in this world now" models.

No capabilities slowdown is in sight, folks.

Been walking through PC upgrade plans with new can-do lateral thinking "I'll upgrade you to business class" Opus 4.5

When I started asking about RAM it suddenly turned turned grim and wouldn't countenance any optimism on price cuts until 2027 at least

Started typing a gentle remark to Claude Code that GPT-5 / Codex probably would've done fine digging through the big HAR file I'd lazily handed it rather than whining about it being too large and falling back to fake data.

Time for bed!

5-Thinking's take

Benchmarks saturated, truly we live in a time of horrors and wonders

Got my DALL-E invite and you may not be surprised to hear I've burned through my initial tokens having it draw cute Tardigrades and @cukiemeow pictures

[Will Strinz @wstrinz]

What no I'm definitely not sorting through multiple inpainting cycles trying to generate "Taft in a bath on a raft with a draught" just because I woke up with the phrase in my head, what a ridiculous insinuation

[Will Strinz @wstrinz]

@colin_fraser 5 Thinking did better fwiw

[Will Strinz @wstrinz]

Love that its impossible to stop Codex tasks. Incredible Sorcerer's Apprentice vibes.

Gemini thing I'm most amused with so far. I gave it some 8-bit pixel art and asked vaguely for a pastoral village sim and kept asking for more (and telling it to fix bugs) from there
