Introducing Ato, your grandparent’s next computer.
Over the past year, more than 2,500 older adults around the globe have used Ato in their daily lives through our beta program, and today we're taking our next step.
Ato helps seniors stay independent on their own terms. It way to stay close and the peace of mind that comes from knowing how they’re doing, without cameras or tracking.
The new Ato lives in the home, becomes part of their routine, and keeps families connected, all through a simple realtime voice interface.
Millions of families are trying to help someone they love stay independent while coordinating care across relatives, caregivers, and healthcare providers. We’re building Ato into the coordination layer that brings all of them together.

Do not show up and immediately start trying to become important. That's a painfully common rookie mistake. First focus on becoming useful. You become useful enough, you start earning leverage. You earn enough leverage, you become important.
The best career advice is still brutally simple: become useful in a way that is hard to fake.

and with this karpathy’s pronouncement, we officially begin a new ai/swe era
I've never felt this much behind as a programmer. The profession is being dramatically refactored as the bits contributed by the programmer are increasingly sparse and between. I have a sense that I could be 10X more powerful if I just properly string together what has become available over the last ~year and a failure to claim the boost feels decidedly like skill issue. There's a new programmable layer of abstraction to master (in addition to the usual layers below) involving agents, subagents, their prompts, contexts, memory, modes, permissions, tools, plugins, skills, hooks, MCP, LSP, slash commands, workflows, IDE integrations, and a need to build an all-encompassing mental model for strengths and pitfalls of fundamentally stochastic, fallible, unintelligible and changing entities suddenly intermingled with what used to be good old fashioned engineering. Clearly some powerful alien tool was handed around except it comes with no manual and everyone has to figure out how to hold it and operate it, while the resulting magnitude 9 earthquake is rocking the profession. Roll up your sleeves to not fall behind.

“You can just do things”
Agency > Intelligence
I had this intuitively wrong for decades, I think due to a pervasive cultural veneration of intelligence, various entertainment/media, obsession with IQ etc. Agency is significantly more powerful and significantly more scarce. Are you hiring for agency? Are we educating for agency? Are you acting as if you had 10X agency?
Grok explanation is ~close:
“Agency, as a personality trait, refers to an individual's capacity to take initiative, make decisions, and exert control over their actions and environment. It’s about being proactive rather than reactive—someone with high agency doesn’t just let life happen to them; they shape it. Think of it as a blend of self-efficacy, determination, and a sense of ownership over one’s path.
People with strong agency tend to set goals and pursue them with confidence, even in the face of obstacles. They’re the type to say, “I’ll figure it out,” and then actually do it. On the flip side, someone low in agency might feel more like a passenger in their own life, waiting for external forces—like luck, other people, or circumstances—to dictate what happens next.
It’s not quite the same as assertiveness or ambition, though it can overlap. Agency is quieter, more internal—it’s the belief that you *can* act, paired with the will to follow through. Psychologists often tie it to concepts like locus of control: high-agency folks lean toward an internal locus, feeling they steer their fate, while low-agency folks might lean external, seeing life as something that happens *to* them.”

Intelligence is on tap now so agency is even more important

Ayer en un momento random del día pensé: estaría bueno que Twitter tenga el feature de ver los tweets más relevantes (el algoritmo) pero sólo de las cuentas que seguís. A la noche abro la app y lo veo implementado. Loquísimo

Just
-- keep tight feedback cycles,
-- make incremental improvements (ideally under guidance),
-- spend a minority of cycles on exploration, and
-- compound compound compound a massive volume of cycles.
That's all it is, that's all it has been, that's all it ever will be.

There is a tool that you can use to write really powerful tweets.
It's kind of like a language model but better.
Under the hood is the biggest, most sophisticated neural net in existence.
Takes a while to train, and you have to train it yourself in-house, but once you get it going it is more powerful than anything you've ever seen.
You can't sell it, but you get an exclusive lifetime license.
It's an absolute marvel of biocomputing.
IT'S YOUR F*CKING BRAIN.
Stop looking for a hack to get results without skills.
Just skill the f*ck up.
Yeah, it takes a lot of work.
Yeah, it might seem unattainable at the beginning.
But those are bullshit excuses.
Just get on the upskilling wagon, stay on it for a few months, look back at how far you've come, and then extrapolate into the future.
Most people vastly underestimate how skilled they can get if they train efficiently.
Don’t let yourself get faked out and discouraged by how long it takes people who don’t take their training seriously.
Your brain is the deepest neural net in existence, with internal structure sophisticated beyond anyone's comprehension.
If you're training it effectively, you will feel that power.
But you can't expect that feeling on day one.
Cognitive/intellectual workouts are just like physical workouts.
You can't expect your body or even your attitude towards exercise to transform in a single day.
But if you start doing well-calibrated exercises up a skill tree, and you stick with it for several months, you will see a transformation get underway (and so will people who know you).
Everybody knows this about physical body transformations but many people don't realize it applies to literally every skill domain.

Muy bien la última actualización de Teams, no sé qué hicieron pero mejoró muchísimo la fluidez. La app de iOS ahora funciona como una app como la gente

cuanto más fácil se haga vibe codear apps, más oportunidades vas a tener como dev.
un skill cada vez más valioso:
entender una aplicación, hacerla crecer y mantenerla segura.
esto implica:
a) soportar miles de usuarios sin caerse
b) estar protegida frente a ataques y errores humanos
c) seguir funcionando aunque algo falle
d) escalar sin perder rendimiento
hoy armar prototipos y validar ideas es fácil (v0, lovable). pero convertirlos en aplicaciones productivas y seguras es otra historia.
ahí es donde podés agregar valor: ser quien entiende cómo pasar de un MVP a un sistema estable, sólido y listo para crecer.
