The recant, the runtime, and a Pantheon built in code

Listen Later

A corporate takedown answered with a recant letter and a mirror in Germany, the protocols and computers agents actually run on, six tools trying to build the Pantheon in code, and a paper where the model writes its own GPU kernel. Plus Codex learning to keep going, a security tool hardened against the real world, and a graduation room that cheered for human intelligence.

  • Meta emails Heretic; Heretic recants — a takedown of abliterated Llama derivatives answered with a Galileo joke and a Codeberg mirror in Germany.
  • Five hundred PRs a day, and the harness that triages them — Onur Solmaz on OpenClaw, acpx, and the Agent Client Protocol.
  • The computer the agent runs on — Ivan Burazin of Daytona on stateful, composable machines for agents and 74% month-over-month growth.
  • Building the Pantheon, in code — six coding tools tackle parametric CAD, and the gap between a good preview and a clean export.
  • When the model writes its own kernel — CODA folds memory-bound ops into the matrix multiply, and model-authored kernels keep up with human ones.
  • Codex learns to keep going — goal mode graduates, plus Appshots and shared plugins.
  • Hardening the thing that reads your CI config — Trail of Bits stress-tests zizmor against forty-one thousand real workflows.
  • The headcount bet — and a graduation room that cheered for actual intelligence.
