As I get my hands more and more on @figma's Code Layers, it feels so meta. Unreal. Such a big bet on turning the Canvas into.. a solid, super advanced creative brain. Every moment with Code Layers is a WTF moment.

Sad but true(?)
do you remember software design patterns we don't give a fuck about them anymore

The year was AD 2026. Starbucks discovered the Freddo Espresso and named it some silly shit, Aerocano. There’s one thing they’ll never have that the Greeks have mastered. Finesse. Say no to Starbucks and support your local businesses everyone.

Claude Opus this and Claude Opus that until they nerf it back down in a week
Opus 5.5 performs at the level of Fable 5.1. It's ~30% faster and ~40% cheaper than Opus 5 per task. In Claude Code: - 5-hour session limits increase 20% today - Opus 5.5 is priced lower, so it goes 25% further within limits - Pro, Max, and Team users get a reset to use anytime

what did everyone expect from those labs? Aren't those models literally trained on humanity's work? On our work?
BREAKING: OpenAI might have stolen another major proof. In a detailed Mastodon post, which I report in full in the comments, Andreas Thom presents several pieces of evidence suggesting that OpenAI may have trained Astra on conversations in which he and Gábor Kun were working on Gromov’s soficity conjecture, one of the ten problems OpenAI later announced Astra had solved. I know Andreas. We met several times early in our careers. He is an exceptional mathematician, a leading expert on sofic and hyperlinear groups, and one of the most respected scholars in the field. He has spent two decades working on this problem. If his account is correct, this is not a minor dispute over attribution. It would mean that unpublished human work was absorbed into a model and then presented to the world as a breakthrough by the model itself. And if the allegations raised by Levent Alpöge, Tristan Buckmaster, and now Andreas Thom are all substantiated, we are no longer looking at isolated incidents. We may be looking at one of the greatest intellectual scandals in the history of science. AI is not discovering new mathematics. AI is stealing human discovery.

The people getting great UI results with AI aren’t using a secret model or a magic prompt. They know what a great interface looks like, and they know how to steer AI towards it. Work that used to take a week takes a day, and the quality bar doesn’t drop, it goes up, because you spend your time on the things that matter. At the end of the day, people that use AI best are the ones that were excellent before LLMs as well. The ones that got the fundamentals right, went that extra mile, and cared about the thing they were working on.
