Szanowny Panie Ministrze @Mi_GOV_PL @DariuszKlimczak, System wspomagania jazdy @Tesla, Supervised FSD (Pełna Samodzielna Jazda pod nadzorem), został właśnie zatwierdzony przez holenderski urząd @RDWnl. To przełomowa decyzja, która otwiera drogę do bezpieczniejszej przyszłości na europejskich drogach: rdw.nl/en/news/2026/rdw-expl… System ten był poddawany wyjątkowo rygorystycznym testom przez ponad półtora roku. Według oficjalnego komunikatu RDW: „Bezpieczeństwo jest absolutnym priorytetem RDW. Prawidłowe korzystanie z tego systemu wspomagania jazdy wnosi pozytywny wkład w bezpieczeństwo ruchu drogowego”. Statystyki publikowane przez @Tesla wskazują, że system ten – pod nadzorem kierowcy – jest siedmiokrotnie bezpieczniejszy niż przeciętny ludzki kierowca: tesla.com/pl_pl/fsd/safety Oznacza to, że każdy dzień zwłoki w zatwierdzeniu tego systemu w Polsce statystycznie przekłada się na wypadki, rany i ofiary śmiertelne, których można by uniknąć. Obecnie pozostałe 26 krajów Unii Europejskiej może w bardzo prosty i szybki sposób pójść śladem Holandii. Tysiące osób, w tym ja, liczą na Pana zaangażowanie, aby Polska znalazła się w awangardzie tej technologicznej rewolucji i realnie poprawiła bezpieczeństwo na naszych drogach. cc @_zboral @norbertcala @bderski

The Shopify CEO just endorsed an agent built by one developer in Austria over every funded AI coding tool on the market. Pi has four tools. Read, Write, Edit, Bash. No MCP. No sub-agents. No plan mode. The shortest system prompt of any known agent harness. OpenClaw, the agent that hit 145,000 GitHub stars and 21,000 live deployments in a single month, runs on Pi. Armin Ronacher, who built Flask and basically shaped Python web development, ported his entire workflow to it. The kicker is what Tobi actually did with it. He told Pi to spawn Claude Code in a tmux session, reverse-engineer its tasks system, and rebuild it from scratch. Pi pulled it off, including the UX. This is an agent studying another agent's product and shipping a clone in one session. $400M in VC funding has gone into agent frameworks. Pi is beating them with four system calls and a package manager. When the CEO of a $100B company says "dawn of malleable software," the trade is to watch what Shopify builds next, because they just told you the architecture.
Pi is the most interesting agent harness. Tiny core, able to write plugins for itself as you use it. It RLs itself into the agent you want. I was missing cc’s tasks system and told it to spawn clause in tmux and interrogate it about it and make an implementation for itself. It nailed it, including the UX. Clawdbot is based on it and now it makes sense why it feels so magical. Dawn of the age of malleable software.

More on @AviSchiffmann Friend idea. Fairly interesting

marques, you may find his old demo clip more appealing than the new teaser. would be interesting seeing what has changed (good/bad) between demo and release.

A ludicrous amount of infrastructure, contracts, engineering, r&d, creativity, meetings, and flops go into creating something like this. And it's absolutely delightful and what our industry is all about

Meta will *not* release the multimodal versions of its AI products and models in the EU because of an unpredictable regulatory environment. This means that EU users of Ray-Ban Meta won't be able to use the image understanding features. It also means that the EU industry will not have access to future multimodal versions of Llama-3. theverge.com/2024/7/18/24201…

I wrote this Format dialog back on a rainy Thursday morning at Microsoft in late 1994, I think it was. We were porting the bajillion lines of code from the Windows95 user interface over to NT, and Format was just one of those areas where WindowsNT was different enough from Windows95 that we had to come up with some custom UI. I got out a piece of paper and wrote down all the options and choices you could make with respect to formatting a disk, like filesystem, label, cluster size, compression, encryption, and so on. Then I busted out VC 2.0 and used the Resource Editor to lay out a simple vertical stack of all the choices you had to make, in the approximate order you had to make. It wasn't elegant, but it would do until the elegant UI arrived. That was some 30 years ago, and the dialog is still my temporary one from that Thursday morning, so be careful about checking in "temporary" solutions! I also had to decide how much "cluster slack" would be too much, and that wound up constraining the format size of a FAT volume to 32GB. That limit was also an arbitrary choice that morning, and one that has stuck with us as a permanent side effect. So remember... there are no "temporary" checkins :) Follow me for more random code musings!

Did you know this syntax is possible in Ruby 3.2 for pattern matching on method arguments, keywords, and blocks? This is really hand if you’re developing APIs in Ruby and have methods that can be called with many different keywords and arguments.

Planning on doing a series of code walks of the ONCE/Campfire with early customers, btw. So if you end up buying, send me an email dhh@hey.com with topics you'd like to see covered as you read through the code. We put a lot of effort into making it really nice!

Jason reveals ONCE #1 in its full, simple glory! We've rebuilt Campfire, our original chat app from 2006, for the modern era. It's $299, once. Free security/bug fixes for 3 years. PWA mobile clients. You get to see the source. Wide beta rolling shortly, full release soon! 😍

Crazy to think that we were spending $150,000/month on cloud rentals just eight months ago. The savings booked since we started our exit has already paid for all the new hardware we bought. Now it's just savings gravy going forward 🤑
