The coolest thing about the recent wave of AI is that everyone is excited about building.
All short-term drama aside, this is an immeasurably good development for the world. The people want to create and ship, not just consume.

I increasingly have no idea about anything anymore, time is changing too fast, and with AI everyone is equal now, nobody really knows anything while there is a superintelligence that's actually moving things into a direction that nobody can predict

The value of an X account can be measured by what doors it opens for you in real life.

feels like a good time to seriously rethink how operating systems and user interfaces are designed
(also the internet; there should be a protocol that is equally usable by people and agents)

Tim Cook is a legend.
I am very thankful for everything he has done and I am very thankful for Apple.

Created a flag on the moon based with hyper-realistic physics with @v0: v0-moon-flag.vercel.app.
The flag is simulated as a grid of particles connected by springs (cloth simulation). It's influenced by gravity, wind, air resistance.
The initial approach v0 one-shotted was quite simplistic, but giving it references to more sophisticated approaches in C++ and Rust quickly improved it. It was mind-blowing it to see it deeply understand the physics and port new ideas across languages.
It simulated a real sun for lighting, and procedurally generated moon-like terrain with craters. I found a sick free texture on Reddit that I uploaded and it layered on top.
Another epic moment was watching it improve performance. It seamlessly moved the physics simulation to a Web Worker. (Kinda cool to see given we just improved support for them in Turbopack 😉)
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
This is not "hyper-realistic" because there is no wind or air resistance on the moon.

📢 Confession: I ship code I never read. Here's my 2025 workflow. steipete.me/posts/2025/shipp…
