Liked on XI made a mistake. When Jack and I decided to organize this $100K Hackathon, my biggest concern was cheating. Unlike a regular hackathon, everyone participates from home. And because the winner is whoever makes the most PROFIT (not revenue), there are so many ways to manipulate the numbers. So I added a $99 entry fee. One thing I’ve learned from building businesses is that people tend to be more committed when they pay for something. I thought it would filter out spam, attract serious builders, and make the competition fairer for everyone. But I completely missed the other side. 3 years ago, I was a living with my apps. Today, I’m financially free. My life changed so much that somewhere along the way, I lost perspective on what $99 means to someone else. For someone in India, someone struggling to pay their bills, or someone trying to make their first dollar online, $99 can be a lot of money. And those are exactly the people I want to help! I’ve spent years sharing what I’ve learned, reviewing random people’s landing pages, and organizing free meetups around the world. Not because there’s money to make, but because I genuinely love seeing people build things and succeed. And somehow, I was so focused on keeping cheaters out that I didn’t realize I was also keeping genuine builders out. That’s my mistake. So I’ve decided to make the $100K Hackathon completely FREE :) Everyone who already paid got a full refund. I’m still worried about cheating. That problem hasn’t disappeared, and Jack and I will have to figure out better ways to verify profits and keep the leaderboard fair. But that’s our problem to solve. Thank you to everyone who shared their thoughts. Sometimes you need people to remind you of things you’ve forgotten. I genuinely hope this hackathon changes someone’s life. ❤️Liked on XIt’s time to bring back Cafe CursorPosted on Xyo @pendev i can't live share edit a .pen file? it's the most needed featurePosted on XI'm coining a word "Agentsplaining" Agents condescendingly assuming the user don't know fuck and repeating the obviousReplied on X@jayhxmo @raycast Hard to explain.

Might resub Raycast pro just cuz of thisReplied on X@ishuagra02 I saw a theory that F5.2 is a post train of 5.1, but O5.5 is a distillation of F5.5(unreleased new pretrain) and thats why O5.5 > F5.2Liked on X@anaclumos don't know what is actually improved 👀Posted on Xam i the only one underimpressed with 5.2 fableReplied on X@bvvst great minds think alike https://t.co/YRFWhb1mcOLiked on XClaude Fable 5.2 is out and it's the perfect time to run this god-level prompt on your codebase: "I want you to audit our codebase, is anything here unnecessary, overly complicated in our current setup, or based on weak assumptions? Challenge them. - What can be deleted entirely? - What can be simplified now that unnecessary pieces are gone? Then make the changes. Prefer deleting over simplifying, simplifying over optimizing, and optimizing over automating. This product is being used by thousands of customers, do not cut any corners." This prompt is one I run often and leads to the best results.Replied on X@akshayadinesh19 @bot can we please BYOM for botsLiked on XTo be fair, the Chinese models have a much lower refusal rateLiked on XF*CK IT, im creating a library of AI slop indicators. my feed is full of taste larpers. stay tuned https://t.co/5Muv8nQRm3Liked on XJENSEN! THATS NOT WHAT WE MEANT BY CHINESE MODELS!!!!!!!Liked on Xmy parents had to declare bankruptcy when I was a kid, so they had every reason to pressure me towards a more stable career path instead, they were so patient with me, even as i failed startup after startup for years so getting to tell my mom that everything turned out okay was a really special moment :) for those who can't read Korean, her first message roughly translates to: "Really!!! Congratulations my son. So much :') Thank you God!" i know I've been posting about my exit for like a week now, but it really is a big deal for me and my family! i'll share more about how this all happened and some tactical advice later this week, but for now i'm just riding out all the emotions to quote my mom, thank you God!!!!Liked on X@thefarmers_Dog it stands for Egg GzampleLiked on X🦍 Introducing Memorilla: memory as a modality for LLMs Memorilla turns everything a frozen LLM needs to remember into just 16 memory embeddings ⚡ It uses up to 4,212× fewer tokens and is 27× faster than full context inference while more accurate 🎯 Pushes the Pareto frontier over RAG and agentic memory in personalization, long-document and knowledge QA A thread 🧵:Liked on XThere's a huge product opportunity downstream of Tailscale etc too. At @tldraw we've started designing for "high trust networks" and it's been a beautiful thing. 1. Features that would be a nightmare on the internet are okay on my computer and mostly okay on private networks. Websites that execute user-generated scripts, control production systems, allow for users to send desktop notifications, spend tokens, or directly prompt my agent. Crazy stuff that would only make sense if everyone was in a committed polycule. 2. When everyone on the server can be trusted to have _external_ reasons for good behavior (eg keeping their job, or maintaining friends, family, church, mafia org), the software can be designed in a default social way. Most apps default to isolation, low horizontal visibility, highly restricted collaboration. Makes sense if the social contracts are inside of the app, but if you can trust that they live outside of the app then you can get wild. Example being small group chat names as an emergent comedy phenomenon because anyone in the group can change the name. 3. This can work for commercial products, too, not just internal stuff. Security matters more than ever but the way we've seen that manifest is that more companies are more confident in their own solutions than anything we could provide, to the point where owning data and access is a better value proposition than having it managed. Always has been true for big companies but now even small companies can get a good secure network set up pretty easily, and the hooks we need to build are easy enough. tldraw offline got us started down this road (and shout out to @pendev for first introducing me to the idea of desktop + mcp). We've been bringing that product to private networks and it's been exciting to see how much we can get away with. Keep an eye outReplied on X@saradu birds eye viewLiked on XApplications close in 2 days!! If you have a cool bio idea, and $5-10k will go a long way for you, please apply!!! https://t.co/NCvmrNC53cLiked on XWe've been early adopters of Rust since 2018 and a lot of our infra, voice tech, and even some of the current client is already Rust, the holy grail was getting the whole client there. That means Electron goes away, and so does React Native, mobile keeps native UI but shares app code with desktop via Rust. We hope to get it into testing with users soon™. (And it's not Tauri, it's GPUI, so good guess everyone.) Alright, back to staring at the WoW Forever login screen.Reposted on XOh boy. https://t.co/X7SSskGuGvLiked on XRIP .si domain squatters
세상의 확산

세상의 확산

통근 시간에는 재미있는 점이 있다. 교통이 발달하며 통근 시간이 줄어든 것이 아니라, "합리적인 통근 시간"이 먼저 있고, 그에 따라 도시가 형성된다는 것(Marchetti's Constant). 즉, 도시가 선행하고 사람이 그 안에서 살 곳을 고르는 것이 아니라, 사람이 살 수 있어지는 곳(이동 시간이 감당 가능한 곳)에 도시가 싹트는 것이다. 그래서 교통수단이 발달해도 통근 시간은 줄어들지 않는다. 반대로, 같은 통근 시간에 더 멀리 갈 수 있는 그 곳까지 생활권이 확장한다. 신기하지?

경제도 비슷하지 않을까? 경제가 선행하고 사람이 직업을 고르는 것이 아니라, 시간, 집중력, 책임감, 협동력, 자신감, 체력 등으로 할 일이 정의되고, 그 결과로 경제가 구성되는게 아닐까? 그렇다면 기술이 발전되어 인간이 놀고먹는 사회는 오지 않는다. 기술은 자유의지를 확장해, 이전에는 어려웠던 일들이 새로운 할 일로 편입되기 때문에, 기술 발전과 노동으로부터의 자유는 딱히 무관해진다.

그런 불행 중 다행으로, 기술이 발전해도 사람들은 실직하지 않는다는 의미기도 하다. 인간을 놀랍도록 새로운 목표를 만들고, 새로운 기준을 세우고, 새로운 욕망을 발명한다. 그것이 자유의지의 가소성이 세상을 확장해온 방식이다. 우리의 능력이 좋아지면, 우리는 그만큼 할 일을 늘려, 우리의 세상을 확장해왔다.

그래서 은 구세계의 포화를 부르는 종말적 장치가 아닌 신세계를 개척하는 인지적 교통수단이다. 인력 부족과 고비용의 핑계를 기술 가속이 파훼할 것이다. 도시가 1시간 통근권의 범위에 맞춰 자라났듯, 경제도 인간이 매일 할 수 있는 일의 양에 따라 새로운 영역들로 확장될 것이다.

그렇다면 인류는 기술 폭발의 꼭두각시인가? 기술 가속은 확장의 동력을 제공할 뿐 방향은 정하지 않는다. 도시 확장이 모두에게 좋은 도시를 보장하지 않듯, 기술 발전도 모두에게 좋은 경제를 자동으로 보장하지 않는다. 기술 전환기에 사회 신뢰를 어떻게 구축하는지에 따라 우리의 도시는 슬럼이 될 수도 낙원이 될 수도 있다. 하지만 슬럼화의 가능성이 있다고 낙원의 가능성마저 버리자는 이야기는 얼마나 공허한가. 기술이 새로 확장되는 세계를 열어젖혔을 때, 우리는 그 세계에서 어떤 도시를 짓고 어떤 경제를 설계할 것인가?
