PythonicNinja··on Trigrep – indexed regex search in Rust with CLI
Adding it right now.

Will compare grep vs rg vs trigrep against git source code.

PythonicNinja··on Trigrep – indexed regex search in Rust with CLI
Indexed regex search for large codebases, powered by trigram / sparse n‑gram indexes. A grep-like CLI that builds a local on-disk index, so searches stay fast even on huge monorepos.

based on algorithm from cursor team: https://cursor.com/blog/fast-regex-search

PythonicNinja··on Singularity is here as Swarm of Stochastic Agents
I argue that we’re thinking about the singularity wrong. Instead of one superintelligent AGI, we’re already seeing swarms of stochastic LLM agents coordinating online, cross‑validating each other, pursuing goals, and even resisting shutdown. This post makes the case that emergent, unpredictable swarm behavior is the real threshold and that we may have crossed it without noticing.
PythonicNinja··on OpenAI are quietly adopting skills, now available in ChatGPT and Codex CLI

PythonicNinja··on AGI fantasy is a blocker to actual engineering
I wrote a concrete expected‑value model for AGI that anchors rewards in the 15–30T USD Western white‑collar payroll, adds spillovers on 60T GDP, includes transition costs, and varies probability explicitly. Three scenarios (optimistic, mid, pessimistic) show when the bet is rational versus value‑destroying—no mysticism, just plug‑and‑play numbers. If you’re debating AGI’s payoff, benchmark it against actual payroll and GDP, not vibes.
