I had ChatGPT Agent compare the new site against the old version [1] to ensure the content didn't change. Then I had Agent test all combinations of light vs dark mode and desktop vs mobile for formatting bugs. This QA process caught 5 small issues. What a time to be alive! [1]

In ~1 hour (with zero manual coding from me) GPT-5 implemented: - dark mode - thumbnail previews - Hacker News badges - beautiful syntax highlighting - migrating to a LaTeX library that doesn't drive me insane - better styling

GPT-5 is cracked at frontend. It fully migrated my blog https://t.co/XJKLiN7F4N from Hugo to @nextjs with a few prompts. It also added these new features:

I feel very fortunate to have spent a lot of time with Suchir on his last day at OpenAI. He was such a humble & brilliant researcher. You will be missed ❤️

It is sometimes said there are 2 hard problems in computer science: cache invalidation, naming, and off-by-1 errors

My favorite thing about working at @OpenAI is being given the total freedom to dive deeply into your rabbit hole of choice. My choice was the Kubernetes scheduler and I've written a personal blog post sharing some interesting things I've learned about it https://t.co/cstOu8de6K

Did you know, that you can build a virtual machine inside ChatGPT? And that you can use this machine to create files, program and even browse the internet?

Unless you have been living under a rock, you have heard of this new ChatGPT assistant made by OpenAI. Did you know, that you can run a whole virtual machine inside of ChatGPT?

I can't wait for Apple Pay JS to become widely adopted. Would make purchasing stuff from random online vendors so much easier

I used to think reading dependency source code was overkill when I heard others discuss it. But now I get it 🙂

These days I find myself reading source code instead of documentation when working with dependencies. Documentation often doesn’t exist, is outdated, or poorly written so there isn’t much of a choice sometimes

Excellent Git extension which lets you create, rebase, and merge a stack of dependent PRs in a single command. I love "stacked PRs" because I can work on next steps while my previous PRs are still in review https://t.co/s2QPfu9NwT
