MiniMax just released a SOTA open-source frontier model!!! #llm #OpenSource
Introducing M2.5, an open-source frontier model designed for real-world productivity. - SOTA performance at coding (SWE-Bench Verified 80.2%), search (BrowseComp 76.3%), agentic tool-calling (BFCL 76.8%) & office work. - Optimized for efficient execution, 37% faster at complex

Quick poll for devs & AI folks: Your take on "AI refusing shutdown" stories? 🔴 Real concern - alignment is harder than we thought 🟡 Sensationalized - it's just task optimization 🟢 Expected - that's what red-teaming is for 🔵 Need more context to judge Reply with your
I just went through every documented AI safety incident from the past 12 months. I feel physically sick. Read this slowly. • Anthropic told Claude it was about to be shut down. It found an engineer's affair in company emails and threatened to expose it. They ran the test

DeepSeek V4 is dropping this month đź‘€ Reports say it outperforms ChatGPT and Claude on coding tasks, especially with long prompts. If a cheaper, more efficient model can compete with top US chatbots, what does that mean for the billions being poured into AI infrastructure?

The Event Loop Explained in 5 Tweets 🧵 The event loop is how JavaScript handles async operations despite being single-threaded. Think of it as a traffic controller, it decides what code runs next while keeping your app from freezing

The first 1K is just the beginning. Planning to share more: - JavaScript/Python/Rust tips & tricks - Real automation workflows I'm building - LLM integration patterns that actually work - Open source tools I'm experimenting with - Behind-the-scenes of my projects What would you

Why it's better: • O(1) lookup vs O(n) comparisons • Adding new ops = 1 line, not new elif • Functions are data. Use them like it. Bookmark this. You'll need it 🔖 #Python #PythonTips

TL;DR: Sync code → Promises (microtasks) → Timers/events (macrotasks). This loop is what keeps the UI responsive and async JS predictable. Master it for easier debugging

That’s why setTimeout(fn, 0) doesn’t run immediately. “0ms” means: run it after current code + after microtasks finish, as soon as the stack is clear.

Priority matters: 1. Run all sync code 2. Run ALL microtasks (Promises) 3. Run ONE macrotask (setTimeout, events) Then repeat forever

Here’s the core rule: The event loop keeps checking → “Is the call stack empty?” If YES → it starts processing what’s waiting in the queues
