1) Need to triple down on infrastructure (safeguards, tests, sandboxes, etc.).

2) Ask agents to do more than just code.

They need to fully demonstrate and prove that their PRs are rock solid. Ask for screenshots, videos, code reviews, detailed architecture diagrams, etc.

It would be an insane amount of work for humans, but AI can do it easily for each PR.

Merging any PR from an agent should be a no-brainer if there's real proof that the feature is built correctly and working.

If there's still doubt, then the agent needs to do a better job of proving that the feature is built correctly, doesn't introduce regressions, etc.

I wonder which country will be the first to be run entirely by AI instead of corrupt politicians

Apple/Google could easily make web apps native if they wanted

No, the distinction is that he had the option to remain at YC if he chose to. He could have simply turned down the offer from OpenAI. It's similar to receiving a job offer from another company... you’re not being dismissed from your current job. You get to decide whether you want to stay or move on.

I was thinking about this just the other day. If infinity isn't actually a thing in our universe, then maybe we're taking some risks by using math with all these infinite limits and integers. Maybe if we look at theorems without using infinity, we'd stumble upon new or different equations.

Hands down the best book I've read to level up my UI game. Highly recommended to developers who want to get better at UI design with no bullshit and a lot of practical examples.

Personally, I used to be very passionate about coding. but over time I've realized that I'm more excited about products/design and working with great people. I know that going into management is often frowned upon among engineers, but I personally love it because I can continue to work on products without constantly banging my head about compiler errors or annoying bugs. Basically, what I'm trying to say is that it's possible to be passionate about building products without having to sit and code all day.

Quantum Mechanics: The Theoretical Minimum --> Great book to learn about quantum mechanics and as a side effect math

Not that I care, but you could even copy the current twitter usernames to your new twitter, alongside all their public tweets and followers. So, when switching, a user wouldn't even need to add back their data or find back their previous followers.

Working on an offline/real-time library for agnostic backends. (Most libraries force you to go with a specific vendor like firebase/aws) or use a completely different backend/db (like couchdb/pouchdb).
