#IPAM is running a 2-day Industrial Short Course : Generative AI Algorithms on March 5-6, 2026.

The short course is aimed at people from industry or government who want to get started in deep learning, apply deep learning to their projects, learn how to code deep learning algorithms, and upgrade their skills to the latest AI algorithms, including generative AI. The course will be taught be Professor Xavier Bresson form the Department of Computer Science at the National University of Singapore (NUS).

The course will be limited to 25 participants. The fee for this course is $2,500 for participants who register before February 1, 2026. It will be $2,800 after February 1, 2026. We encourage everyone to register early, as we expect that this course might be booked out.

More information about this course can be found at:

Forgot to note it back before the holidays, but the esq.social Mastodon instancejust had its third birthday. 🎉

In that time, the instance has processed 597 million messages.

I'm responsible for, like, half at most.

ベネズエラに関心も知識もない人たちが「ベネズエラ人は喜んでいる！」とやるのはお決まりだが、最近は「ベネズエラ人は喜んでいる！AIもそう言ってるぞ！」という、より愚かなパターンもあるのだな……。

トランプによるベネズエラの攻撃と大統領夫妻の拉致。「国際法よりも国益を重視」といった見出しで報道されていることも多いけれど、どちらかと言えばアメリカにとっての「国益」の内実が変化したと言うべきなのでは。
冷戦後、曲がりなりにも自由主義（リベラリズム）の価値観を資本主義的な自由経済秩序とセットにして国際社会に拡大し、そうして築き上げた国際秩序の盟主であることがアメリカの「国益」だったし、アフガンやイランへの侵攻や支配も、そうした建て前のもとでなされていた。
それに対して、そうしてアメリカが自国の利益のために作り上げた国際秩序は、むしろアメリカを弱らせていると主張して、トランプは大統領になった。MAGA派の多くは国境をまたいだ軍事侵攻を支持しないとされていたが、結局は西半球を帝国主義的に手中に収め、石油の利権を得るというむき出しの「利益」を隠しもせず、トランプはベネズエラに軍事攻撃をした。アメリカはずっと自国の「国益」のことしか考えていないし、無責任な暴力の行使によって、世界に戦争と混乱を引き起こし続けている。

I will repeat that I was not sitting back at all during those 6 hours. While agents were working, I was working, just on separate -- but related -- tasks. I know for a fact that I could not have completed this amount of work in 6 hours fully manually (based on the experience that I've written something like 30+ bindings to C libraries in the past decade, probably more).

I wrote Zig bindings to quickjs-ng with 96% API coverage (~240 exported C decls) with unit tests, examples, and doc strings on all functions in less than 6 total hours with AI assistance. I never want to hear that AI isn't faster ever again. https://github.com/mitchellh/zig-quickjs-ng

This isn't slop. I worked for those 6 hours.

I was reviewing everything it outputted, updating my AGENTS.md to course correct future work, ensuring the output was idiomatic Zig, writing my own tests on the side to verify its work (while it worked), and more. My work was split across ~40 separate Amp threads (not one mega session, which doesn't work anyways unless you're orchestrating).

I have a ton of experience writing bindings to libraries for various languages, especially Zig. I have never achieved this much coverage in so little time with such high quality (e.g. test coverage). My usual approach is to get bind just-enough of the surface area to do my actual work and move on. This time I thought I'd draw the whole owl, because it's a new world. And I'm very happy with the result.

Anyone with experience writing bindings knows that you do some small surface area, then the rest of the coverage is annoying repetition. That's why I usually stopped. Well, LLMs/agents are really, really good at annoying repetition and pattern matching. So going from 5% API coverage to 95% is... cake.

There is probably some corners that are kind of nasty still, but I've been re-reviewing every line of code manually and there is nothing major. Definitely some areas that can just use a nicer Zig interfaces over the C API, but that's about it.

I plan on writing a longer form blog showcasing my threads, but you can at least see the final AGENTS.md I produced in the linked repo.

During the holidays I've been doing Duolingo since I don't have graduate school reading and homework to do.

I've been competing with a stranger in the league system they have. We were running neck and neck for 1st and 2nd place, about 2000 points ahead of the next player. We've traded the top spot 3 or 4 times over the last 48 hours.

She must have spent hours studying today, because she's now 1000 points ahead of me. Gotta respect the hustle.
