If you use iPhone and translate a lot by selecting text on images, do yourself a favor and set in Settings -> Default Apps -> Translation App something other than iOS Translator app - it’s terrible even for English, not mentioning other languages. DeepL or Google Translate will serve you well

Fields Medal winning mathematician Timothy Gowers thinks there will be a crisis in the field very soon as students are trained for a "career that may not exist in a few years' time". He says that after GPT-5.5 Pro he used produced "a piece of PhD-level research in an hour or so".
Timothy Gowers @wtgowers

But if AI mathematics continues to progress at anything like its current rate -- which is what I expect to happen -- then we will face a crisis very soon, and mathematics departments, who owe a duty of care to their students, should be urgently preparing for it.

David Petrou @dpetrou

What's the crisis exactly?

Timothy Gowers @wtgowers

A lot of young people who have deeply invested in a career that may not exist in a few years’ time.

I am worried about Bun
Bun is excellent software. Anthropic owns it now, Bun sits under Claude Code, and Claude Code getting worse makes me worried Bun could follow the same enshittification path.

important if you use Vercel for web projects they've updated their ToS to allow using your data to train AI models, and free plans are opted in to that by default you can opt out under Settings > General > Data Preferences
What is changing
Agentic infrastructure capabilities

We are developing features that allow Vercel to do more to keep your apps running efficiently, including:

Proactively investigating and mitigating incidents
Analyzing web app performance data and suggesting improvements
Identifying where your spend is going and creating PRs to optimize usage
Optional AI model training

You may choose whether Vercel can:

Use your code and Vercel agent chats to improve Vercel models
Share your code and Vercel agent chats with AI model providers
Vercel will not share personal data, account details, or sensitive information like environment variables, and any information of this nature will be removed from data you make available for AI training.

Defaults by plan
Hobby and Trial Pro: Opted in to AI model training by default, can opt out at any time
Pro: Opted out of AI model training by default, can opt in at any time

That’s how you reach out with an interesting role opportunity, hat off. Short, challenge & expectations clear, salary range in email title! Beautiful 🫶
We’re looking for a Senior Engineer to own a high-volume JavaScript SDK that sits at the very front of the data pipeline. It’s the first thing developers integrate, and it has to be:

• exceptionally lightweight (tree-shaken, lazy-loaded, minimal footprint)
• cross-browser reliable (modern + legacy behaviour, edge cases, service workers, CSP/CORS constraints)
• privacy-aware by design (consent handling, cookies, storage limitations)
• fault-tolerant under real-world conditions (network instability, retries, offline mode)

The role is a mix of architecture, performance engineering, and developer experience. You’d be defining the standards for how thousands of applications collect and forward user events - and your code ends up embedded inside customer products, not just on the backend.
If that blend of scale, browser nuance, and craftsmanship aligns with what you enjoy, I’d love to share more context.

Kind regards,
