Some AI vibe coder guys have hundreds of thousands of followers. I write these by hand with GLSL.
If you’re into this sort of thing, follow maybe?

@zeddotdev I hope you guys are drawing inspiration from magit and lazygit. Keep up the good work ✨

“being bad at something is the first step to being good at something”

[kasey @kaseyklimes]

I suspect a lot of this is that young people know they’re expected to be bad at stuff, so the downside risk of humiliation is capped

when we meet a 20 year old who says “I’m a musician” we think “oh that’s cute” and then are legitimately impressed if they’re actually good

when we meet a 35 year old who says “I’m a musician” we *assume* they’re very good and then feel confused and embarrassed for them if they’re not

this dynamic is even more pronounced in places like nyc, because
a) it feels like everyone around you is the best in the world at their thing, and
b) there’s little-to-no privacy to be bad at what you do while you’re learning. your neighbors are going to hear your shitty accordion playing, every basketball court is full of top notch players, etc

I think one way to increase agency in the world is to nurture a culture that celebrates being terrible at stuff, asking dumb questions, etc, extending the grace we offer young people to everyone as much as we can

Everything you love about generative models — now powered by real physics!

Announcing the Genesis project — after a 24-month large-scale research collaboration involving over 20 research labs — a generative physics engine able to generate 4D dynamical worlds powered by a physics simulation platform designed for general-purpose robotics and physical AI applications.

Genesis's physics engine is developed in pure Python, while being 10-80x faster than existing GPU-accelerated stacks like Isaac Gym and MJX. It delivers a simulation speed ~430,000 faster than in real-time, and takes only 26 seconds to train a robotic locomotion policy transferrable to the real world on a single RTX4090 (see tutorial: https://t.co/bEkIlCKqdf).

The Genesis physics engine and simulation platform is fully open source at https://t.co/DhBv7NdyqH. We'll gradually roll out access to our generative framework in the near future.

Genesis implements a unified simulation framework all from scratch, integrating a wide spectrum of state-of-the-art physics solvers, allowing simulation of the whole physical world in a virtual realm with the highest realism.

We aim to build a universal data engine that leverages an upper-level generative framework to autonomously create physical worlds, together with various modes of data, including environments, camera motions, robotic task proposals, reward functions, robot policies, character motions, fully interactive 3D scenes, open-world articulated assets, and more, aiming towards fully automated data generation for robotics, physical AI and other applications.

@kaseyklimes @matt__yao You mentioned training in a new style, maybe you wouldn’t notice the difference if you were more adapted in the lower rep range with higher weight
