Bertrand Russell, one of the mathematicians associated with the crisis of foundations in mathematics in the early 20th century. He tried to co-write a book defining all math and logic from first principles, until Gödel fucked it up for everybody.

hype vs. job count gap
Scatter plot of hype versus the gap between milestones. As the gap shrinks from 300 jobs to 5, labels escalate from “milestone” to “MONUMENTAL”

naively, this sounds like the models should be a threat, but I’ve found only the opposite. I, too, can go deeper on more problems with my time, and my peers have started looking to me for advice. I love that.

Another skill I’d like to see become accessible is formalization, for infrastructures. Eager to see people ‘do a breakthrough’ on type systems and interfaces next. </soapbox>

Clavin @cla.vin · 26/07/2026
One of my marketable skills used to be the depth of investigation I could give to a problem. Models have enabled so many more people to go deep on so many more topics now! We see niches being explored with more depth and breakthroughs advancing our frontiers every day as a consequence.

Clavin @cla.vin · 26/07/2026
<soapbox> …and for it to become generally accessible too. I’ve seen models writing Lean code for years now, but I’ve yet to see codebases formalizing their most fundamental systems with this power—access controls, extension lifecycles, rate limits, etc.

Clavin @cla.vin · 26/07/2026
Models’ mathematical abilities are finally in the limelight! I’m holding my breath for someone to do a type theory breakthrough

fixed your headline
A hit song on the Billboard 100 charts is termed *$k$-good* if it is _ever_ in a weekly top-$k$, and *$k$-immediate* if it _debuts_ in the top-$k$.


An artist is *$(n,k)$-Olivian* if their $n$ first $k$-good hits are all also $k$-immediate.

*Headline 1.* Olivia Rodrigo is the first $(10,10)$-Olivian woman.
