If you just want some boardgames - tell replit to make a installable-PWA of it-- its very affordable; you can use WebGL if you need 3D -- but replit isn't good at generating 3D models from prompts ( I wasted a lot of prompts on trying to get a physics-accurate skeeball game ) . 3D-sphere-chess with AI (about $100) https://sphere-chess.replit.app/

They already have space-based compute in terms of Starlink and Starshield. Is it much more difficult than that ?

We need your salary to buy the machines that will do your job. :|

You spin up agents and want them to paid without opening a bank account... or spin-up hundreds of agents... or your country isn't very well integrated with western banking rails. I think there is more to consider.

An emerging use-case is a bank account for AI agents. I read that Coinbase 'Base' Ethereum layer2 is popular for AI banking.

The unit of work is now a 'prompt'. Imagine recreating different classes of software... there is correlation between complexity (ie # of prompts) and value. Make an app so complex, no one has tried it.

Chess on a sphere, its not as fun as it sounds, but it works. Probably was around $100 of prompting.

"learn to code" is probably over...

Remember the mean-spirited viral meme of 'learn to code' aimed at BuzzFeed journos in 2019? ... not aging well.

I replit'd a travel-site since yesterday: ~8-ish hours: front-end, back-end, auth, mapping, geo-coding, points-of-interest, planning, image carossels, weather-integration (not sure if the weather thing is working), routing.

None of it by hand, no SQL, no Linux provisioning, no learning Map api calls, no typescript, no javascript / webpack bundling, no trying to figure out why i can't get things to vertically center, no css.

There will be like ~1000x more code w/ 1/100x wages.

There's probably space for people with CS PhDs -- but that's not exactly the same as 'learn to code'

Make a yt playlist of lo-fi, there's a lot of it, then u can dl it with yt-dlp.

Mexican lo-fi is a nice sub-genre: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_4XHt0iVfRU

Inference cost is dropping 30x this year (see GTC keynote) So imo this is a meaningless blip.

Meta/Google/Anthropic report 75%+ of coding is now AI. For every engineer orchestrating AIs -- X will be let go -- but at what ratio 3:1? 5:1? 10:1? Seems like its at least 3.

Chain a few tools together to make demos, give them away, charge for upkeep.

eg. yt: Nano-Banana + Kling + Claude Code = scrolling-exploded-headphones demo in a few minutes.

If you take a year off to orchestrate some complex-workflows with agents... I expect you'll still be hire-able, but idk.

You probably don't need very much news at all. I like learning interesting second-order effects of current events, but they aren't necessary for my life. Here's a few I found interesting lately:

Gen-Z doesn't go to parties anymore because they are on screens all day and/or have social anxiety

Photoshop tutorial business is cratering because people aren't interested in learning how to manipulate photos when they can just create one via text

Japanese guy called do-nothing-guy gets paid to go to restaurants with pretty women in Japan because apparently they can't get a date or are too shy or something terrible is happening with the social fabric in Japan idk what

Its interesting to think about automating the news, you'd need a news feed from every courthouse, twitter feed, sports arena, press release -- run them through various processes, identify trendlines, etc. no small task

The secular papers at the time confirmed the events, so this hot take is low-efefort and low-information and obv wrong.

The generic term is AI-headshot, there are dozens of companies doing this

AI, robotics, drones, self-driving: all poised to take a lot of jobs.
