the "highly leveraged" piece really bounces around in my brain, if a t-shirt factory switches from sewing machines that make 1 shirt/worker/hour to robotic ones that let a worker make 20 shirts per hour does not increase pay 20x, right? what is the mechanism for that higher leverage becoming wages?

that said: the article is well-written, and definitely thoughtful in the domain that amodei is most passionate about, which is medicine / biology. i wish it covered the other domains a lot more, though.

i want a big ol' citation needed marker on "increasing compensation" in this paragraph because i cannot see any simple or complicated economics brain way in which this is inevitable

it seems, at the moment, lopsided: ai has a very visible (so far, negative?) impact on governance, definitely negative impact on economic measures (paying llm researchers $10M bonuses is not good for gini coefficient…), but its impact on medicine is uncertain, minimal, and not visible to most

Not sure if it crossed your way @josevalim but this is our love letter to the Elixir and Phoenix ecosystems too.

Could we have used a React-based design system? Sure! But our product would have ended up looking like all the others, with a strong dependency on an ever-changing, intricate ecosystem. Instead, we chose to bet on the web and Phoenix.

Tuist is crafted to maximize efficiency with minimal effort, and Noora's design system is crucial to this goal. While using it to develop our new marketing page recently, I was reminded of the incredible work made by @asmitbm and @cschmatzler.

While I enjoy the concept of agentic coding, I'm not keen on the inauthentic design it produces. This has made me value the genuine work @asmitbm is doing for Tuist even more.

It's becoming more and more clear that the two next areas of focus for Tuist should be Swift CAS and test infrastructure:
- Performance and flakiness insights
- Dynamic sharding across environments
- Snapshot testing tooling and infra

These are common needs across large ogs

Making progress on the new Tuist's about page :)

Hahaha I might have to use that 🤣

just got hella mansplained to at a motorcycle store

pissed me off more than usual for some reason

We just added 4 new Insights columns for Postgres databases to track per-query pattern CPU and I/O utilization.

- Cumulative CPU time
- Cumulative I/O time 
- % of CPU time
- % of I/O time

#ZedEditor

We cannot deny the superb quality of Astral's tooling. For Pythonistas 🐍, we've bundled `ruff` with Zed and enabled it by default—you no longer need to install an extension.

When @-mentioning large files in the agent panel, you run the risk of blasting through the model's context window. Now, for these large files, Zed intelligently provides the file's outline, so you can have longer conversations with the agent before needing to start a new thread.

Some devs enjoy seeing whitespace markers in their editor. For those devs, you can now customize the characters that mark whitespace via the new `whitespace_map` setting.

Thanks iluuu1994!

Icon theme extensions can now provide folder icons, making it easier to visually recognize meaningful directories in your project when you install packages like `Catppuccin Icons`.

Thanks jacobtread!
