I see a lot of Claudeisms/AI slop in the copy text on that page. Really disappointed from that page, agreed, fire the marketing team.

It worked well on my machine, git clone, install, start dev server... also it seems the worker is up and running again. I guess public sharing will only work to some extend when running the dev server for testing.

Love your metaphor here. I guess there will always be people who try to keep going and follow their current projects and say that only human math is real math and we should only use alien technology for proofreading mails and such but not their highly established and esteemed professions. Or just keep your hubris low, update your priors, work towards progress.

They mentioned "... and my visualizer tool comes with an MCP server ...", with a link to the rerun project. I guess it makes more sense that his visualizer tool uses rerun...Sorry for the confusion from my side.

A bit off topic, but I absolutely love the little robot on the author's main project's landing page (https://rerun.io/). I normally condemn mouse hijacking, but this implementation will be allowed.

I don't know what kind of experiences and apps this UI/UX mode will enable but it's one of the most innovative and coolest AI model demos I've seen this year.

"In fact there are only two things universities need to change to be perfect at preparing founders: they need to make students feel that starting a startup is something they can do, and they need to encourage them to work on their own projects."

I'd argue that both of these would be highly beneficial for all kinds of students, founders and non-founders alike.

Starting a startup could be generalized for all students to having a dream or goal, taking ownership of it, and making it happen. A startup is just one possible path, pg is probably too specific here, I would agree.

Having more free time to work on my own projects is probably the freedom I missed most at university. I think learning to choose what to work on and making something happen would benefit future workers, teachers, doctors, and engineers just as much as entrepreneurs.

It's a trade-off in terms of time and other resources, since parts of the existing curriculum would have to fade away. But I think it's a good starting point for change and a good direction to move in.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. One of the best frameworks I have encountered, and one I point people to whenever I can, is the AI Fluency framework by Anthropic, Prof. Joseph Feller (University College Cork), and Prof. Rick Dakan (Ringling College):

https://www.anthropic.com/learn/claude-for-you

This framework provides a more abstract way of thinking when working with AI systems. Especially valuable to me is the pattern of the 4 D's: Delegation, Description, Discernment, and Diligence, which I have now internalized whenever I use AI systems. It helps me understand my own and others' (mis)use of AI systems a bit better.

Thanks! I also like the OpenAI Cookbook: https://developers.openai.com/cookbook

Other AI labs also tend to publish examples and cookbooks on GitHub and Hugging Face, so it's always worth keeping an eye on those as well.
