Opus 5.5's efficiency is highly disturbing. Feels like seeing a new world emerging in real time.

I hope we keep writing docs for people who want to understand and build things without using AI.

I'll be part of the Jury of #TripoAI 1st world building hackathon. it's a worldwide contest co-organized with other cool companies and if you're into VFX, games, XR or 3D printing you should give it a shot :) more info below

Finally found a short moment to put together a little webpage! mostly just an excuse to play around with some WebGL GPGPU + render target combos in Three.js. By the way, I’m a web creative developer and sometimes Arduino tinkerer working with artists and installations ✨ www.laetitiananni.fr

I really miss apps that would do ridiculous things in their UI, like Disco. If you've never used this ~2007 CD burning app, it would show a real-time smoke simulation coming out of the window when you were in the process of burning a CD. It was interactive too! www.youtube.com/shorts/zklSr...

Disco.app quite literally ... burns ... CDs and DVDs

There was one story on stackoverflow where someone's C code was faster than their hand crafted assembly and now it is generally believed that high-level abstractions generate higher quality output.

Figma expands to build pretty much anything Slack integrates claude so you cand build directly from there Notion adds more AI to to make anything Linear integrates AI and git so you can build directly from there.

I made an online demo of the WebGL Flex Avatars! it took some work to pack everything so that it can run online but I managed to fit the gaussian model, 10 expressions & the mesh proxy in 16Mo :) I also added Gaussian relighting and shadow casting, audio playback and a webcam to drive the avatar 🔗 👇️

I managed to get FlexAvatar to run fully in browser with ONNX WebGPU ! 🎉 since inference is now rea-ltime, it's running fairly fast (20-40fps) so I added an audio analysis tool to make the various expressions reactive to sound 📢

"Game dev is one of those jobs you only do when you really want to. It's not going to make your parents proud, you're unlikely to get rich in an industry that lays off people for making superhits, and its a demanding & confrontative job. Why would you let a machine do the thing you're here to do?"

New on Constraint Systems: Sphere Paint Multi-player painting without edge sphere-paint.constraint.systems A sphere is interesting because all points are continuous on all sides. You can respond, extend, or connect in any direction.

Zero data isn't just a customer perk, it's really for me. We've normalized optimizing all the joy out of our businesses. One way to push back is to not put that weapon in your hand and instead collect no data.

I'm not super worried about the effect of AI on the younger generation. I'm confident that there will always be adventurous and ambitious people who will want to do great things. These people will use whatever tools they have, including AI, in a smart way.

Still working on my "chain of increasingly complex programming tools". I'm working on V4. One idea for this version is to use the jj graph as the interface to manage the tasks

One thing I find useful when writing specs for a coding agent is to explicitly define a vocabulary upfront. I don't know if it makes the agent perform better, but it definitely helps write a clearer document.

Github is dying. It won't disappear suddenly, but unless they do major changes soon, it will be like facebook: still here, but we open it less and less. Maybe it will survive as a pure code storage. The replacement is not exactly here, but there are some changes

This morning I'm vibing a chain of increasingly complex programming tools. I'm at V3. V0 was... nothing. Just claude in the terminal V1 was useless beyond any reason. When trying to improve V2 from itself, claude thought it would be great to restart the app, effectively killing the session 🙃

One thing I learned working on a drawing app is that vector and raster graphics are much more compatible than I thought. Once you have layers, you can perfectly interleave vectors and pixels. Affinity is doing exactly that.
