One person billion dollar company has been achieved: @galligator

My dear front-end developers (and anyone who’s interested in the future of interfaces): I have crawled through depths of hell to bring you, for the foreseeable years, one of the more important foundational pieces of UI engineering (if not in implementation then certainly at least in concept): Fast, accurate and comprehensive userland text measurement algorithm in pure TypeScript, usable for laying out entire web pages without CSS, bypassing DOM measurements and reflow

At long last, my moment has arrived.

A universal truth: most radar charts should just be bar charts. Love your stuff, Anthropic!

Anthropic's Revealing Chart on AI's Impact on Jobs Anthropic has unveiled a pivotal chart that underscores the chasm between AI's capabilities and its real-world application in the workforce. Derived from analyzing 2 million actual conversations with Claude, this radar chart, titled "Theoretical Capability and Observed Usage by Occupational Category," paints a stark picture of untapped automation potential across various job sectors. At its core, the chart is a spider web diagram plotting occupational categories around a circular axis, with values ranging from 0 to 1.0 representing the share of job tasks. The expansive blue area illustrates the theoretical coverage tasks that large language models (LLMs) like Claude could perform right now based on their inherent abilities. In contrast, the much smaller red area shows observed usage, drawn from real user interactions. The visual disparity is immediate and profound: blue spikes outward significantly in fields like computer and math (reaching about 0.75), business and finance, and office administration, while red hugs close to the center, often below 0.2 across most categories. This gap isn't just academic; it's a "career runway," as highlighted in discussions around the chart. For programmers, 75% of tasks are theoretically automatable, yet actual usage lags far behind. Similar vulnerabilities appear in customer service, data entry, and financial analysis, roles traditionally seen as white-collar strongholds. Meanwhile, hands-on fields like construction, agriculture, and protective services show lower theoretical exposure, with blue areas dipping to around 0.1-0.3, suggesting AI's current limitations in physical or unpredictable environments. Broader data amplifies the chart's message. As of early 2026, 49% of U.S. jobs expose at least 25% of tasks to AI, up from 36% a year prior. Yet, mass layoffs haven't materialized; unemployment in AI-vulnerable roles remains steady. Instead, subtler shifts are underway: a 14% drop in hiring for 22-25-year-olds in exposed positions indicates companies are prioritizing experienced workers, shortening entry-level pathways for recent graduates. The implications are clear: while AI's red footprint grows incrementally each month, the blue expanse signals accelerating change. College-educated, higher-earning professionals, once insulated are now most at risk, flipping the script on traditional labor disruptions. Anthropic's chart isn't a doomsday prophecy but a wake-up call, urging workers and businesses to bridge the gap through adaptation, upskilling, and ethical integration of AI tools.

Trump has launched an illegal regime change war in Iran with American lives at risk. Congress must convene on Monday to vote on @RepThomasMassie & my WPR to stop this. Every member of Congress should go on record this weekend on how they will vote.

My response to @AIPAC launching ads to take me down.

Let’s shut this down right now: No one is being charged for eating bacon. They’re being charged because they hunted down students in prayer, surrounded them, threatened them, and livestreamed the whole assault. If your defense is “but bacon”… you don’t have a defense.

It's official. It's genocide.

yes

Irony is dead. For months now, American politicians & pundits, Jewish community leaders & students, have obsessed over ‘from the river to the sea’; censuring Rashida Talib & accusing pro-Palestinian activists of genocidal language. Meanwhile, the Prime Minister of Israel says:

This is why we can’t have nice things

Silicon Valley Bank’s shareholders and executives lose it all, as they should. Depositors in good faith, however, should recover and have access to their deposits in order to meet their payrolls, pay their suppliers, and to prevent contagion.

Happy Thanksgiving! This year I’m very grateful to be back to building something ambitious and meaningful with a small but mighty team of the most talented and amazing humans in the world. There’s nothing quite like it!

hello, world! Short tweet. Monumental progress.
