Rico @ricopic.one · 03/10/2026I wonder how long it will be until a rogue agent wants to do something with a site that's broken and hacks the site just to fix it 010
Rico @ricopic.one · 29/09/2026I like Opus 5.5. Before this version I was disappointed in the 5.X series. The benchmarks for the previous versions never seemed right in my experience—Fable was better and sometimes it felt like even Opus 4.8 was better. I'm glad they finally landed it. 001

Rico @ricopic.one · 10/09/2026GOOD NEWS I put a Diet Coke in the freezer and I remembered to get it even after distractedly turning off the timer I set. Unprecedented levels of aura today. I might try a new catch phrase. 2230
Rico @ricopic.one · 09/09/2026First calculators and now LLMs. It’s almost like y’all don’t even like math. 010
Rico @ricopic.one · 09/09/2026Agreed. And for education purposes we obviously have to put the machine aside and learn. And when we turn on the machine we should learn to point it and guide it and understand where it takes us. And as for doing mathematics manually for enjoyment, I note that humans still play chess. 000
Rico @ricopic.one · 09/09/2026This is interesting. I haven't followed Tao closely, so given the way he is quoted here I wonder if the portrayal in the article is inaccurate or if he has shifted his position. 110
Rico @ricopic.one · 09/09/2026I am surprised he can’t get excited about the possibilities instead of focusing on what is now lost forever, a world without intelligent machines. Perhaps it is because he is the best mathematician of his generation 110
Rico @ricopic.one · 09/09/2026I have taught the Navier-Stokes equations, and when I do I make reference to this Millennium prize problem. It sounds like OpenAI just solved it. Terence Tao, the mathematician they interviewed, doesn’t love the way AI is transforming his field. www.nytimes.com/2026/09/08/s...nytimes.comOpenAI Says It Has Cracked One of Math’s ‘Millennium Problems’The company’s announcement is the most dramatic sign yet that artificial intelligence is fundamentally transforming the field of higher mathematics. 200

Rico @ricopic.one · 01/09/2026I think the part about the comments section that sucks is how people talk at the crowd instead of each other 000
Rico @ricopic.one · 24/08/2026Mind adding me? I have found my skyline to be much better after following this starter pack. Thanks for putting it together! 121
