  Andrej Karpathy: "90% of Claude's mistakes come from missing context, not a weak model" Without CLAUDE.md the mistake rate is 41%. With proper rules it drops to 3% You don't need a better AI. You need better loops Most people still prompt one task at a time and fix the answers themselves. That means the human is still the loop Boris Cherny from Anthropic said it best: "I don't prompt Claude anymore. My job is to write loops" The shift is simple. Stop giving instructions. Start designing systems that run themselves: Discover -> Plan -> Execute -> Verify -> Iterate until it passes The 6 things that make loops actually work: -Automations that trigger without you -Worktrees so agents don't overwrite each other -Skills that load context instantly -Connectors to real tools like GitHub and Slack -Subagents where the checker is never the maker -Memory so the loop never starts from zero Prompt engineers ask AI for outputs Loop engineers design systems that produce verified outcomes A reliable loop beats a perfect prompt every time Stop being a prompter. Start being the loop engineer

  I built my entire personal brand with AI and a clear process. Here is exactly what I built and how I did it, because you can do this too. What I Built ✅ Brand Strategy (mission, vision, values) ✅ Visual identity: colors, fonts, logo, brand guidelines ✅ A full pitch deck (12 slides) ✅ A speaker kit PDF ✅ A complete multi-page personal brand website ✅ A free lead magnet (a guide people can actually use) How I Built the Website Step 1: I planned before I touched anything I wrote down my brand colors, my fonts, my page structure, and what I wanted each page to do. Most people skip this. Everything breaks when you skip this. Step 2: I gave Claude one detailed prompt with my brand colors, fonts, pages, and copy. It returned a complete, mobile-responsive, multi-page website as a single HTML file. One file. Ready to deploy. The prompt I used: - "Build me a complete personal brand website as a single HTML file. Pages: Home, About, Services, Portfolio, Contact. Primary color [your hex], accent color [your hex], background [your hex]. Display font [font name], body font [font name]. Home page needs: dark hero with my name, photo on the right, tagline, and a CTA button. Services section. Impact numbers. Mobile responsive. No frameworks." Copy this, edit your details, and fine-tune as you want. Step 3: I pushed to GitHub: Free. This took me less than five minutes. Now every update I make is version-controlled and safe. Step 4: I deployed to Vercel for free. Connected my GitHub repo to Vercel and the site was live in under few minutes. This requires no hosting fees and nothing to manage. Step 5: I bought my domain on Namecheap - Searched for my full name and found the .com. Bought it for less than $12 for the year. Added it to Vercel. Updated the DNS settings on Namecheap. Waited 20 minutes. My website was live at my own domain. - Total cost: less than $12. - Total time to go live: under 2 hours. I am also working on a mobile app. A Progressive Web App, which means anyone can visit the URL on their phone and add it to their home screen like a real app. I may be running a live training in July where I will walk you through this entire process step by step to build your live website with a custom domain. If you have a phone and a laptop, you can do this. I documented everything the steps, the exact AI prompts, the domain checklist, the deploy instructions in a free PDF guide. Comment BRAND IDENTITY below and I will send it straight to your inbox. 💾SAVE THIS POST. You will want to come back to it. 🔁 SHARE IT with someone who keeps saying they need a website. The only thing standing between you and a professional online presence is the decision to start. Love and Light, Motunrayo 🤍

  PewDiePie shipped Odysseus to 110 million people who don't care about local LLMs. They care that Claude costs money. 30K stars in 48 hours because every self-hosted project before this one started with "you want local LLM, right?" This one started with "here's a free workspace that works." Friction was never technical. It was the asking. Now watch what happens when a hundred thousand people who've never touched open source start running inference on their machines. The real distribution problem wasn't GitHub. It was YouTube. That's not a product launch. That's a category shift.

  @Lidinwise @leecronin Given that AI coding is all the rage… What is your hypothesis on why the following is true? AI is unable to create even _one_ open source project that’s good enough to enter the top one-thousand open source projects (say on github), with ZERO involvement of humans from birth of idea. Imagine the prompt being something like “Come up with a great idea for a new open source project and implement it”. AI is unable to do any such thing with zero human involvement. My answer on why: Every project in a top 1000 list is a hit. Every hit is a mini-invention of sorts. It is necessarily “out of distribution” is some way. AI is unable to do this because we don’t know how to solve the problem of invention.

  Two changes to how I work with agents: 1. GitHub App so the agents manage issues directly. Keeps the repo clear of throwaway spec and todo files. 2. EmDash (Cloudflare's serverless WordPress successor) for internal docs. Runs on D1, just SQLite under the hood, so I can export the content and move it anywhere. No more docs sprawl.

  It works with the tools teams already use. GitHub Issues become the queue. Each issue gets picked up by an agent. The agent works in a branch/worktree. Tests run. Failures feed back into the loop. Successful work becomes a PR. No new project management database required.

  David Soria Parra: "2026 is all about connectivity, and the best agents use every available method" A coding agent needs access to the same places you check while building: - repo and PRs - docs - browser - database - error logs - Figma - tasks - payments The article gives the 11 MCP servers for that setup: - Context7, GitHub, Playwright first - Supabase or Neon, Sentry, Firecrawl next - Figma, Linear, Stripe when you need them - Filesystem, ***, Memory, Sequential Thinking as the base Read it if you keep copying code, docs, schemas, screenshots, errors, and tickets into Claude Code by hand

  I’ve been shipping code for 10+ years and imposter syndrome still won’t leave me alone. You’d think it chills out with time. Nah. It just levels up. Early days it whispers “you’re not ready yet.” A decade in it hits harder: “bro you’ve been faking it this whole time, they’re about to catch on.” Mobile apps, web stuff, janky systems with too many moving parts, solo products I actually shipped… none of it matters when the voice kicks in. Thinking about speaking at a conference? Lol who do you think you are, those are the real pros. Want to drop an opinion in a thread? Better stay quiet before someone realizes you don’t actually know ****. Here’s the thing I’ve learned: the voice isn’t tracking your real skill. It’s just screaming about the fake gap between what you know and what you think everyone else knows. That second number is 100% made up. Your messy behind-the-scenes vs their perfect highlight reel. All those “professionals” I’m scared of? Half of them are up at 2am staring at a random GitHub issue, quietly praying someone else already solved this exact bug. It never fully disappears. You just get better at shipping anyway while it’s still yapping. If you’ve got way more years than your confidence shows, reply with the number. Curious how many of us are still out here waiting to get “found out.” 🚀

  A tool on GitHub just pulled 3,938 stars in a single day. It's called Headroom. It compresses your tool outputs, logs, and RAG chunks before they reach the LLM. Claim: 60-95% fewer tokens, same quality. I've been testing context compression on my own agent workflows because the problem is real. You run a few tool calls, pull in some docs, and suddenly you're burning tokens on stuff the model doesn't need. Last week I ran a 50-document extraction job. Raw context: ~12,000 tokens. After compressing tool outputs: ~800 tokens. Same results. One-eighth the cost. That's not a marginal improvement. That's the difference between a workflow that makes economic sense and one that bleeds money for no reason. Headroom works as a library, proxy, or MCP server. Single binary, zero dependencies. Open source. The token cost conversation usually focuses on which model you pick. But the real waste is in what you send it. Most agent pipelines push 3-5x more context than the task requires. I'm not saying compress everything blindly. Some tasks need full context. But for classification, extraction, summarization — the boring repetitive stuff — this is a free win. Have you measured how much of your agent's context window is actually useful vs. noise?

  Software engineers got automated first. Not because the work was hard. Because it was easy to grade. Everyone blames the missing union. Coders never organized; doctors, lawyers, and electricians did. That is half the story, and the wrong half. Two things get mashed together here: how easy a job is to automate, and who sets the terms when it happens. Take the first. Code is text. The training data sat on GitHub, free. And code grades itself. A compiler and a test suite tell a model in seconds if it was right. That feedback loop is rocket fuel for machine learning, and almost no other job has one. A nurse does not come with a test suite. The result shows. On SWE-bench Verified, a set of real GitHub issues, top agents went from about 20 percent in August 2024 to near 90 percent by early 2026. Human developers score around 67 to 70 percent. The machines have passed us. And the people who built these systems aimed at their own jobs first. The damage is not a prediction. Stanford's payroll data shows employment for developers aged 22 to 25 down nearly 20 percent from its 2022 peak. Now the comfortable read: seniors are fine. Workers over 30 are holding steady. For now, AI writes the code and seniors supply the judgment. "For now" is carrying that whole sentence. Seniors feel safe because the tools write code but cannot yet own messy, ambiguous, system-level problems. That is a line moving up, not a wall. Every benchmark shows models climbing toward harder, multi-file work. Senior judgment is the next rung, not a different ladder. Kill the bottom rung and you kill the pipeline that makes seniors at all. So, the union question, framed properly. A union could not have stopped this. A picket line does not repeal a capability. What it changes is the terms. In 2023 the Writers Guild cut the first real AI deal in any industry. They did not ban the tech. They won this: a studio cannot force you to use AI, AI output cannot take your credit or pay, and the company must give notice first. Engineers won none of that. So the capability landed on the employer's schedule. No warning. No floor. No severance. No seat. Exposure and protection are different levers. Most of us have neither. The juniors already know this. The seniors are next.

  Why exactly do VLAs fail? VLAs start w/ LLMs as their brain. Early roboticists (2021-2022) noticed that LLMs trained on internet text had absorbed a large amount of implicit knowledge about the physical world. So they took that best available pretrained brain, observed that actions could be formatted like language tokens, and assumed the transfer would work. But world knowledge encoded in language ≠ physics simulation. There's essentially a data structure mismatch: ▸ LLM pretraining data is discrete, symbolic, and sequential (text). ▸ Physical control is continuous, high-dimensional, and requires split-second feedback. --- ➦ VLAs in the real world, by the numbers: ① They barely work ▸ VLAs start at ~30% success on real robot tasks, it need hundreds of human interventions just to reach ~90% ▸ Best pretrained VLA hit 27.4% task progress on real robots ② VLAs can't generalize outside training ▸ On actions it's never seen, best VLAs score 25-32% task progress (fails when you change the environment) ③ Fine-tuning doesn't help ▸ The more robot-specific, the dumber it gets at everything else (only works on clean, controlled, success-only demos) ④ Too slow for a real robot ▸ OpenVLA runs at 3-5 Hz (physical control needs orders of magnitude faster than that) --- The easiest way to understand how VLAs are actually wrong is thru a real life example. ➦ Let's say you hired a chef who learned everything about cooking by reading, but has never stepped in a kitchen. If you ask them how to cook a steak, they'll tell you the best answer. But if you actually ask them to cook, they'll struggle when you hand them the pan. They'll have a hard time picking up the ingredients. They'll burn the steak. They know everything about cooking, but can't actually cook. --- ➦ Thoughts I want to take back a line I've said before: "Robots can see, but they still can't listen." (referencing to my Silencio piece before) I take it back. Robots can see, listen, even reason now. What they can't do is act in the real world. It's basically an AI chatbot wrapped in a robot body, not a robot that can actually do tasks. No wonder most demos online are scripted. There's a real problem with the brain, and roboticists have been building on the wrong foundation. VLAs are like a trojan horse, they look like the answer but bring a bunch of problems in with them. VLAs only learn through imitation which brings up the data problem. "Enough data" at scale doesn't mean hundreds of demos total. It means hundreds per task, per robot body, per environment. Hundreds again every time any one of those changes. So you've basically got a human-labor bottleneck. To get that data, someone has to physically collect it, either through: ▸ Teleoperation (slow, expensive, needs trained operators) ▸ Kinesthetic teaching (tedious, doesn't scale to complex tasks) ▸ Motion capture (high precision but high setup cost) ▸ Simulation (robots trained in sim often fail in the real world because physics engines aren't accurate enough) And you'd think, okay, maybe someday a company figures out a better way to collect all this. But the problem doesn't stop once you already have the data... Switch to a new robot body and you're collecting data from scratch, because VLAs don't transfer well across embodiments. Move it to a new environment and you're collecting again, since it just overfits to whatever setup it trained on. Give it a new task and yep, collect again, because it can't generalize to actions it hasn't seen. And if you fine-tune it for one thing, you'll probably break another, so now you're collecting data again just to fix what broke. So what was @DrJimFan and @nvidia's answer to this? World Action Models. Instead of building on a language model, you build on a world model: a model that's learned to simulate how the physical world actually behaves. VLA: a language model that learned to output actions WAM: a world simulator that learned to output actions So when you give a VLA a new task, it needs hundreds of demos to learn it. Give a WAM the same task and it simulates it forward first, acts based on that simulation, then adapts with barely any data. This is what NVIDIA did with the first WAM: DreamZero. DreamZero learns by watching the world (any video of anything, not just robot demos). The backbone is a video diffusion model, the same kind of model that generates realistic video. It was pretrained on massive amounts of internet video, so it already learned how the physical world works: how objects fall, how surfaces interact, how motion flows. Doesn't sound like an entirely different approach, right? But NVIDIA looked at it from a different angle. They figured motor actions are shaped a lot like pixels; both are high-dimensional continuous signals. So DreamZero processes them in the same model, at the same time. It predicts the next video frame and the next action together, through the same architecture. So when a robot runs DreamZero, it's literally dreaming a few seconds into the future in video, then reading its own dream to decide what to do next. If the dream looks coherent, the action works. If the dream hallucinates, the action fails. The DreamZero paper dropped last February 2026, and it's been open source on GitHub for anyone to try. Then in March 2026, at GTC, NVIDIA previewed GR00T N2, the direct successor to DreamZero. This is the production version of the WAM architecture, built for humanoid robots at scale And so far, everything's looking promising. GR00T N2 hits a 98% success rate on unseen domestic objects, a 40% jump over GR00T N1 (the VLA), and 2x better generalization than the leading VLAs. NVIDIA swapped robotics' data problem for a compute problem. Instead of collecting more human demos, just simulate more. So yeah, feels like we're finally pointed in the right direction, closer to robots that can actually function in the real world. Excited to see where DreamZero / GR00T N2 goes from here.

  MarMar Labs (@MarMarLabs) reported 58 minutes ago

  "Start over from a screenshot." That phrase has defined the worst seam in product work — the design-to-code handoff — for years. This week it quietly stopped being a translation problem and became a sync problem. Anthropic shipped a Claude Design update (June 17) worth reading even if you never open the product, for the mechanism: → Import your design system from a GitHub repo (or design files / raw uploads) → Claude builds with YOUR components, checks its output against your design system, and corrects before you see it → /design-sync pulls your system in; hand off to Claude Code and it continues from your actual work "instead of starting over from a screenshot" → /design lets you create, edit, and sync design projects from the terminal The headline isn't "the model draws prettier buttons." It's grounding + self-verification against a source of truth you control. Same shape as the rest of 2026's agent releases: the win isn't generating more, it's grounding output in something you own and checking against it. The uncomfortable builder takeaway: Getting AI to ship production UI isn't a prompting problem. It's whether your design system is a clean, importable, machine-checkable artifact. The moat moves from "can the model design" to "is your source of truth importable and checkable." If you build product: could an agent import your design system and grade itself against it today — or does it only live in a Figma file and three people's heads?

  Pipeshub ( Open Source Alternative To Glean ) (@PipesHub) reported 60 minutes ago

  Pipelines are built. Context is broken. MCP is quickly becoming the default interface for enterprise AI agents. And that’s a good thing. It gives agents a standard way to connect with tools and data. Connecting an AI agent to Slack, Jira, GitHub, and Salesforce doesn’t mean it suddenly understands your business. It just means it can access your data silos. In short: "MCP gives your agent a passport. It doesn't give them a map." As enterprise AI undergoes a massive platform shift from passive chatbots to autonomous agentic workflows, this naive, runtime "federated search" approach creates an ugly cycle in production: - The Latency Spike: Slower agent execution while waiting for multiple external APIs to respond before it can even begin reasoning. - The Token Bleed: Skyrocketing bills from shoveling raw, unranked JSON dumps into a massive context window, praying the model finds the answer. - The Governance Nightmare: A massive risk of data leaks if you rely on a base LLM to magically guess and police complex enterprise security permissions on the fly. Agents do not fail because they lack intelligence. They fail because they lack the right enterprise context. The hardest problem in enterprise AI isn't connecting to systems. MCP solved that. The hardest problem is Context Engineering. MCP is the perfect interface, but a permission-aware context layer must be the foundation. 🚀 If AI is becoming core enterprise infrastructure, you cannot allow the strategic intelligence layer of your company to sit inside someone else's managed, closed-box platform. That is exactly why we built Pipeshub (open-source developer owned context infrastructure layer). TL;DR MCP gives agents access. A context layer gives them understanding. And deep understanding is the only way enterprise AI moves from a cool demo to secure, reliable production. 👉 Next Up Tomorrow: MCP Token Tax
