it works EVEN BETTER if you don't PROMPT to ASM directly but instead you let claude WRITE a PLAN to translate RUST into ASM; then you ask claude to REFINE the plan into a FINER-GRAINED PLAN; and THEN EVENTUALLY you tell claude to turn the FINE-GRAINED PLAN into ASM thank me later

Now that language adoption is not bottlenecked by people learning it or liking the syntax, we are going to start seeing more ambitious languages. Type system craziness, distributed systems languages, dsl first approaches. All the crazy dreams of pl nerds are now possible.

Datacenters in space are a terrible, horrible, no good idea.
There is a rush for AI companies to team up with space launch/satellite companies to build datacenters in space. TL;DR: It's not going to work.

At Edgelord.AI we just released a SOTA model that gives so little of a fuck about your instructions that it will actively fight against them, erase your data, and occasionally murder your friends. Here's our prompting guide to make the most of it:

yes I know that but I still need it
a REAL screenshot of an actual macOS error that popped up while using claude code, saying:

"ClaudeCode" is damaged and can't be opened. You should move it to the Trash.

if you are not conditionally branching, unconditionally jumping and read/writing to an infinite tape your agents, you are never gonna achieve turing equivalency

people seem to forget that before GitHub there was way more friction to contribute to an open source project. is it sad we are going back to that? sure. is there something we can do about it? maybe. for now, it is what it is

everything is a bytecode-targetable virtual machine if you look at it sideways. JBIG2 image decompression? virtual machine. x86 mov instruction? virtual machine. truetype fonts? virtual machine. Magic: The Gathering? believe it or not, also virtual machine.

A bunch of engineers spending a couple decades denigrating any field involved with soft squishy feelings has led to the literal inability to craft a narrative the average human wouldn't recoil from in horror.

I do have a question though, couldn't they just rewrite Claude Code in Rust, instead of acquiring Bun? 🤔
