@claudeai Claude Fable 5 on FrontierCode is either benchmaxxed or a scary leap

I’m hiring exceptional software engineers for my team at @SpaceX. We are a small team based in Redmond, WA (onsite) that owns key parts of the @Starlink user experience: Starlink.com, the mobile app, customer support, AI integrations. No PMs. No designers. You ship from day one to millions of customers. If this sounds interesting, DM me something impressive you’ve built.

@davidgomes @teej_dv Great to hear! This is the end-state for handling permissions. It should become the default, as soon as you have an internal validation suite that says it's "safe enough".

@reactnative Hermes v1 is a big deal. 2x speed improvement in JSON parsing, not to mention the compiler. Huge props to @tmikov and the team for their hard work on this.

@grabbou @mrousavy Nitro Image is D-tier at image display and memory use. The downsampling needs improvement (looks like nearest neighbor?) and it's as bad as RN. But A-tier cleanup! github.com/scarlac/benchm…

Turns out you can save 75% on memory use in a React Native apps. Expo Image vs React Native Image: github.com/scarlac/benchm… What other libraries are worth comparing these days?

@quaccauq You got it exactly right! The memory use is just the tip of the iceberg. FPS drops are what triggered this investigation originally.

@realGeorgeHotz @striedinger Yes. Stay that way. “how hard can it be” has been some of my best (and worst) decisions as well. It keeps you explorative

@MrX51422244 @DeepMind It uses the same model across all tasks, meaning it's "actual" generalized learning. One can argue exactly how generalized it is / how good it is, but it does seem to generalize to some extent

@sama @elonmusk Server reply can be optimized. Replies are getting more than doubled in size. You can effectively move that client side. Should save some in CPU and traffic costs.

@WixEng Wix engineering reminds me of everything that’s good about Facebook engineering: They do hard work to improve the fundamentals. They seem to be guided by the same excellent high standard that the @reactjs engineering team is. I have nothing but respect. Kudos.

@elonmusk @Twitter About 3% here but it’s likely to increase with the follower size a person has. Bots will have to target people with high influence to maximize their reach during their potential short life.

@jensimmons Thank you to the team, Jen. I see it was fixed in 15.4! > WebKit fixed a bug with the interpolation between colors with alpha transparency — improving gradient support from webkit.org/blog/12445/new…

@jensimmons Safari rarely see updates hence the hate. But constructively: rgba gradients: rgb(255, 0, 0, 1) -> rgb(255, 0, 0, 0) behaves weirdly because alpha and color is expected to transition but doesn’t. Google “safari css alpha gradient” and you’ll see examples for Safari vs. others

@jensimmons The address bar suggestions can’t easily be navigated by keyboard because it will randomly reset to the top item as you go down the list. It’s a simple bug but it’s hugely frustrating. The bug has existed for years.

@jensimmons This is a daily occurrence and I have to switch to Chrome for development every time I see it. I don’t know the reason but other browsers with web inspectors don’t have this issue I think. This is from google.com
