Why not both?

It seems to be basically a Twitter mirror with extra cruft?

More like a curator of all the AI news on Twitter. It’s also a great way to find trending AI projects on GitHub and elsewhere

These seem like low-priority bugs to spend time on? Most apps have bigger problems.

The issue is that we didn’t have these kinds of incongruent animations twenty years ago, and nowadays they are the norm, worsening user experience.

These aren’t bugs in the traditional sense. They built the animation system to work like this, and replaced the old system that didn’t produce these psychedelic transition states.

Is there more about what they did somewhere else? I don’t see any implementation details in the article.

Doing things the same, standard way each time is often good. Most of the code we write is obvious. We notice it when it's a weird quirk rather than just being the most straightforward way.

I wonder how long it will take to fix the quirks?


I think this makes sense for apps, but the apps will still need infrastructure and common protocols to interoperate. It still won’t make sense to implement your own cryptography.

Why not?

If you can vibecode your app, you can vibecode your cryptography as well.

You may object to it but that, too, would be elitism. And the person vibecoding has no idea why proper cryptography matters anyway. Or why proper anything matters.

This is the ultimate realization of "my ignorance is as good as your knowledge".

I don't think this is necessarily a bad thing.


Because doing enough security reviews to remove all the security bugs gets expensive, and if you use well-reviewed code, it's already been done.

We do have ways to avoid giving an LLM any secrets, but it needs to be the simple, default solution.

There are plenty of good sandboxes out there but somehow no "obvious right answer" that everyone knows to recommend. Seems like a missed opportunity.

(I'm happy with exe.dev, but I'm not sure what I'd use if I were coding on a Mac.)


This sounds a lot like being on call. If you like that kind of work, why not be an SRE instead? Maybe there also need to be people “on call” for responding to other kinds of events, though?

It also sounds a lot like getting pulled into meetings. People complain about it, but sometimes that’s the job.


I assume it’s for business travelers.

Looking at nationwide statistics is also a bit misleading because nobody is average. Under that scenario, oil consumers are exposed and oil producers will win big.
