• Seriously, C++ is where Claude code is really hitting its stride for me! This is awesome. No performance wonkiness.

  • Our house kills dehumidifiers so it’ll die before their “smart devices” servers do. bsky.app/profile/x…

  • Claude code makes C++ so awesome. Seriously, if you’ve been a python fan, just dump it and go back to C++. Claude just handles all the BS and you don’t have to worry if you are on some ridiculous fast-path or have an optimized library or … anything. Just good algorithms and performance.

  • Barring a major setback, it now appears highly likely that Blue Origin will beat SpaceX in landing a vehicle on the lunar surface. arstechnica.com/space/202…

  • If you do nothing else today, spend 5 mins and watch this absolutely astounding video by Ma Chunlin of a single take along the route up Everest/Qomolangma/Sagarmatha www.youtube.com/watch

  • Checkout Makie 0.23 on Julia. They added a force-directed auto-label system!! makie.org/website/b… (Okay, I guess in 0.22.8, see the pic). This will be so useful for labeling data. My students will tell you I always ask about “outliers” in plots, so I’m sure they will appreciate it.

  • The weekend.

  • None of us would complain about reviewer 2 if we could get a stream of high-impact journal papers out of their skepticism! arstechnica.com/science/2…

  • There are pictures reportedly from St Paul Yesterday. “Cancelled” doesn’t mean “didn’t happen” — unless there was a coordinated campaign to fool people like me?

  • Hey nytimes. Confirmed by who? Your three reporters? I’m happy to confirm that the event in West Lafayette Indiana was real! Or you can use our local paper? www.jconline.com/story/new…

  • Of course. The median number of the new acip committee is probably a better representation… (compared with the old group)

  • Sometimes I want to pull my hair out using Claude code. Are there examples of how to use it efficiently? I feel like I’m burning through tokens having it write shitty code to make small amounts of progress. (Yes, it is making progress, but it’s so so so so so bad code…)

  • What is with so many websites breaking on safari recently? Google scholar, DOE PAMS (which worked yesterday), …

  • Whelp, need to update my iMac Pro to something more modern, more powerful. Thankfully, the new Mac Mini will work!

  • Oh dear. These AIs will have trouble with sierra games.

  • Claude code really needs a vibe indicator which is roughly the number of times you’ve said no vs. yes recently.

  • Yes. The movie mean girls is also my go to for legendary feuds. Thanks nytimes!

  • “The natural ratio is about 105 boy babies for every 100 girls; because boys are slightly more likely to die young, this leads to rough parity at reproductive age.”

    What?? What’s the basis for this difference?

  • Why does Mario Kart take so long to download !!??!!?

  • Ugh. I’m out of credits. Claude code really does chew through them.

  • Who are all the people buying $TSLA right now?

  • Just got a call from someone in Tajikistan. That’s a first.
