The Claude C Compiler is the first AI-generated compiler that builds complex C code, built by @AnthropicAI. Reactions ranged from dismissal as "AI nonsense" to "SW is over": both takes miss the point. As a compiler🐉 expert and experienced SW leader, I see a lot to learn: 👇

Throwing this out before I get beaten to the punch, since a few folks have perhaps discovered the context trick already. https://t.co/3L937SfKJi This is suuuuuuuuper rough, still actively being thought on, but the basic idea is: Agent is context stack + fork/join + blackboard

80% done on an explorer for the tiered memory system in Solum, my Elixir-based @openclaw killer™️ The context is just a frame. I've been running this system for a couple of days. It is no longer stuck in the user->agent message loop, and through context engineering, it treats

I created Elixir/Phoenix/Ecto/… plugin for Claude Code with 20 agents, 37 skills and so on. Early stage but already good to use. I will try to improve it by time and explain some benefits and some interesting processes.

Remember: the margin is a perennial function of a healthy center, but will to some extent always resent that in which it cannot participate, given the disintegrative consequences of its marginal behavior. A healthy center can accept the margin, at the margin, as an exploratory
The Center fundamentally enables the existence of the Margin. Most advocates of the marginalized fundamentally misapprehend this reality because, quite ironically, their thought remains constrained by Enlightenment era analytic—as opposed to emergent—premises. That is to say:

Nova is a web framework written in Erlang, designed to stay close to OTP and BEAM principles. I’ve started publishing in-depth guides explaining both how it works and why it’s built the way it is. Docs + blog: https://t.co/J4nfxNKguy

Man, I love @elixirlang. The deeper I get into the ecosystem the happier I become. It's so simple and so powerful. People are really sleeping on it, I think.

I think Opus 4.6 just casually optimized OTP maps (for x86 at least, ARM segfaults atm) I literally just `sprite create otp` && "read this gist and do it [link]". Drove to DMV to get a new license and 1 hour of token burn later it had a passing suite https://t.co/P4KNgw6E5p
Tried Opus 4.6, it did fix the first segfault (hooray!) but now there is another segfault which it could not fix after the whole night. Here is the problem statement in case anyone wants to give it a try: https://t.co/JSgkXSsnjo Here is where I stopped:

When you're using Elixir and Phoenix, everything is realtime and distributed as a matter of course. This is realtime web and cli as I https://t.co/2YeEP8YJnx console:

Here is my take on why Elixir is the best language for AI: immutability, documentation, stability, and tooling for coding agents. It builds on the recent study in which Elixir had the highest completion rate across models among 20 different languages. Link in the thread below.

as you go through various philosophical movements and trends that led us to today, you occasionally pick up certain lenses that are very useful, and you retain them. one of these for me was what makes structuralism unique, and how i would apply structuralism to the concept of

Man goes to Borges. Says he likes hourglasses, maps, eighteenth-century typography, the taste of coffee, Stevenson. Borges says 'great writer Borges shares these preferences.' Man bursts into tears, says 'but in a vain way like attributes of an actor'

You hear all the time about people protesting AGAINST progress, but when was the last time you heard of people protesting FOR progress? Tomorrow we'll be out in Westminster reminding government of the commitments they made last year to reform nuclear regulation. Don't let them

Britain is facing so many problems at the moment, and the good news is that the cost of energy is eminently solvable. This evening a group of us came out in the cold and the rain to prove that it’s not just the blockers who show up.
