We’re upgrading our smartest model. Across agentic coding, computer use, tool use, search, and finance, Opus 4.6 is an industry-leading model, often by wide margin.
GPT-5.3-Codex is a Codex-native agent that pairs frontier coding performance with general reasoning to support long-horizon, real-world technical work.
When you’re running a project in a tech company, understanding that your main job is to ship the project goes a surprisingly long way. So many engineers spend their time on peripheral questions (like the choice of technology X or Y) when core questions about s…
Something strange is happening with Mac Minis. They’re selling out everywhere, and it’s not because people suddenly need more coffee table computers.
If you browse Reddit or HN, you’ll see the same pattern: people are buying Mac Minis specifically to run AI ag…
In the project I am currently working on, we inherited a codebase written in an older version of .NET Framework. The ASP.NET part of it was still using synchronous controller methods. This wasn’t changed for a long time because, why bother if it works? Then, s…
AI doesn't remove craftsmanship: it moves it. The goal was never to protect the purity of the saw. It's to build good furniture. Engineers can now focus on intent, judgment, and product quality instead of translating tickets into code.
Struggling with Claude Code debugging? Learn why AI fails at fixing bugs—and two practical methods to give it the visibility it needs to solve problems on the first try.
We remake ourselves over our lifetime, usually as a result driven by personal change. Sometimes it comes from shifts in our own lives, and sometimes from inspiration we feel compelled to pursue. Either way, it tends to be localized to an individual journey. Wh…
Virtual texturing is not about supporting larger textures, but about aligning memory residency with what can actually be visible on screen. This article explains the system end-to-end, from addressing to feedback and residency decisions.
Nearly 30,000 attendees, 21,000 paper submissions, and a community grappling with fundamental questions about where AI is headed. Our takeaways from the world's premier machine learning conference.

The Codex desktop app doesn't change everything - but it's part of a larger trend worth paying attention to. Where IDEs are headed and why specs matter more than code.
Recently, I was chatting with an engineer who was transitioning into a fully remote role for the first time in their career. They were excited, but also had a touch of anxiety about it. For someone who had spent their entire career in the familiar commute → of…
I’ve been wanting to write more personal things on this site. Not everything needs to be public, but I still want the convenience of having it all in one place - searchable, linkable, backed up in git.
So I built client-side encryption into thi...
