I included a few references to this year's record-breaking... Kākāpō breeding season in a talk I gave yesterday, and since Claude Opus 5.5 is surprisingly capable at pixel art animation I had it create this celebratory video for my closing slideshow more

I've been using Opus 5.5 over the last week... and ran a TON of tokens through it. I can tell you it's def on the fable level It's VERY good at 3D modeling. I had it render the top 500 gym equipment pieces and create a whole gym buildershow more

People still want soreness to mean something. You wake... two days after a session barely able to sit down, and a voice at the back of your mind says good, that one's going to grow. It isn't. Soreness is the receipt for damage you haven't finished repairing. While the body patches torn tissue, it isn't building new muscle on top. The ache marks the days the work is paused. A sore muscle is a weaker one too. Force production drops while it's tender, so the next session runs at a discount, lighter loads, poorer stimulus. And the swelling you read as size? Fluid. It does nothing for growth and drains away in days. If you're sore all the time, that isn't a badge. It's a message. Drop some volume and put a few more rest days in. The muscle grows on the days you can walk.show more

While researching Marina Abramović a few years ago I... found her art website & a page about an art installation she did in Israel for the Holocaust. Today I clicked that same link & noticed the entire page was taken down, you can access it on the way back machine. Why are they trying to hide that Marina is a jew? Old link - WayBack Machine link that works -show more

Hi, I'm Daniel. I run BrightStudios and design brand... identity systems and build the websites to match. The throughline isn't industry It's the moment: companies at fundraise, launch, rebrand, or going upmarket. My work spans across SaaS, consumer, hospitality, education, marketplace, and a few that don't fit a category. Started designing at 18. Top 1% on Contra. Framer Partner, Webflow Partner most importantly a Barca fan. A few names you might recognize: DAZN, Contra, Daydream, Hypernative, Marcura, Averi AI, SupaHumans. I put together a reel of recent work, here it is:show more

Opus 5.5 quite literally k*lled GPT-6 Astra. I asked... Opus 5.5 to build a world in Unreal Engine and fill it with AI agents (Opus, Astra, Sol, Grok). Higgsfield built the assets in Blender. I left my laptop open overnight. The build took over 20 hours. The agents had one instruction: build a working society, allocate roles to each other, and evolve. Then I woke up on them beating the sh*t out of each other. Seems the frontier paced itself. Last minutes of failed society captured below:show more

BREAKING: Anthropic just dropped Opus 4.8—and it is a... MONSTER We've been testing for about a week Every 📧 and our verdict is they could've just called it Opus 5, it's that good. Here's our vibe check: - Beats GPT-5.5 on Senior Engineer bench. On our toughest benchmark Opus 4.8 scores a 63—a hair higher than GPT-5.5's score of 62, and a full 30 points higher than Opus 4.7. It tackled a ground-up rewrite of a production codebase, and actually built something that works. HOWEVER: Coding performance varied a lot at different reasoning levels. We recommend using it on xhigh for best results. - Incredibly good writer. Opus 4.8 scored a 79.6 on our writing benchmark—measuring models on real-world writing tasks we do all of the time like essay writing, promo email writing, and more. It beats GPT-5.5 by 6 points. It produces well-written prose with fewer "AI-isms". It's also very good at writing in your voice given the right context. HOWEVER: Writing performance also varied with reasoning levels. Medium reasoning had higher incidence of AI-isms—we found best results with high. - Beast at knowledge work. Opus 4.8 is very good at general knowledge work tasks like report creation, research and more. It produced the best PowerPoint one-shot we've ever seen on our deck generation benchmark. - Emotionally intelligent, willing to question the frame. I've also found it to be quite good at talking through psychological or interpersonal issues. It has a high EQ, and it's also good at not glazing and helping to expand your perspective. Its thought process feels extremely rich and dynamic. THE BAD: These days a model is only as good as its harness, and Codex is still a far superior harness to the Claude Desktop app. This has kept me using Codex + GPT-5.5 as my daily driver, but I am flipping back and forth a lot more between Codex and Claude. Anthropic is back baby! Read the rest on Every 📧:show more

For a long time, small brands ran forgettable ads... for one boring reason, and it had nothing to do with taste. Good creative was just expensive. You needed a designer, or an agency, or at minimum a friend who owed you a favour. You needed a brief, a few rounds of edits, a week of back and forth, and a few hundred dollars you weren't sure you'd make back. So most small brands did the sensible thing and made nothing. A logo on a coloured background, maybe. Then straight back to work. That math is quietly breaking, and I don't think most people have noticed yet. Goose the Growth Guy does something that sounds small and isn't. You paste a brand's website and get finished ad creatives back. These are built from templates that already performed for real brands, rebuilt around whatever brand you point it at. Your colours, your product, your words. It runs in the browser, and there's no designer anywhere in the loop. The cost of producing something that genuinely looks like a real ad has dropped close to zero. If you have a product and want ads that actually work, try Goose now. If you signup from the link below, you’ll get 1000 credits for free.show more

Nano Banana Pro is completely taking over design it... can put your own texts & images on a blank magazine.. and design the layout for you nicely in a few mins how I did it on ImagineArt (with prompts):show more

Not sure if this is old news, but I... just discovered that in the Meta Quest browser you can longpress any image on any website and turn it into a 3D photo in a couple of seconds. I love it! Now I wish every image online worked like this by default.show more

Anthropic just published its official prompting guide for Opus... 5.5. If you're still writing prompts the way you did for Opus 5, you're paying more and getting less. Here's what changed 👇 1. Default to medium effort Medium on 5.5 already outperforms high on Opus 5, at a lower cost. Maxing it out by habit just burns tokens. 2. Drop "think step by step" Reasoning is built in now. The model decides how much thinking a task needs, so asking it to think harder adds nothing. 3. A check-in isn't a finish line On long runs, it sends progress updates along the way. If it stops to report, tell it to keep going. 4. Fence off anything you paste Put emails, docs, and web text in clearly labeled sections or tags. That way it can tell your instructions apart from the material it's working on. 5. Retire your image workarounds Those custom chart readers and OCR steps you built are probably dead weight. It reads screenshots, diagrams, and charts accurately on its own. 6. For design work, name what you don't want "Make it unique" gets you generic. "No purple gradients, no centered hero, no emoji icons" gets you something different. It follows specific bans much better than vague direction. ♻️ Repost to save someone a few API bills.show more

Hunger is out now on all platforms and the... YouTube premiere will be in a few minutes. After that we’re gonna meet on my Discord. Once again I explored new music territory with this song so I’m very curious what you think about it.show more

Kerning is hard. For all of us. It's more... art than science. And often easier to kern another's finished work than your own WIP. I spent a few minutes adjusting the kerning on Paramount's new logo (critique of new logo aside). You be the judge if this is an improvement. Or not.show more

Codex cooked for 12 hours 19 minutes last night... using a /goal 🎉 It added: - Stopwatch (count up) - Clock (with seconds) - Pomodoro - Tabata - Autocomplete Everything worked except the UI interactions around auto-complete (Codex GPT-5.5 is still not great at UI, but even Claude Opus 4.8 Ultracode struggled here). Overall, I'm really happy with the results. These are features that I've wanted for a while, and getting them close to release is awesome.show more

What happens when you swipe right on Sorce? 1.... Your application is added to our queue. 2. A browser picks it up and starts filling it out, usually within a few minutes ( you can watch it happen live on the app) 3. If the application asks something we can’t infer from your profile, our AI will ask you in the app. 4. Once it’s complete, you’ll see the form details and a replay of the browser session in the app.show more
