This issue of 10Things takes you to the frontlines of a rapidly changing world—from climate forecasts that directly impact future generations to the evolving role of creativity in an AI-driven workplace. Explore the future of coding with Claude, the philosophy behind enduring design at Linear, and Rick Rubin’s unexpected dive into “vibe coding.” We also unpack the risks of generative AI’s truth problem, the latest on online safety legislation for kids, and why the near future might get weirder than we’re ready for. Plus: immersive art, Cannes cinema standouts, and practical tips for creatives navigating the AI age.
Enjoy, Your Majesty
1. Claude Code: Anthropic's Agent in Your Terminal
Cat Wu and Boris Cherny from the Claude Code team stop by to tell all.
When we build tools, we shape environments that will in turn shape us—and at Linear, Karri Saarinen has championed quality as the foundation, not an afterthought. In this talk, he'll share lessons from Linear's journey.
3. New Study Estimates How Many Climate Extremes Your Kids Will Face
Achieving the Paris goals of limiting heating to 1.5 degrees Celsius could spare 613 million of today’s youth from “unprecedented” exposure to heat waves.
4. Creatives: 11 Ways To Impress Employers In The Age Of AI
AI hasn’t yet replaced the need for human oversight, and there are still plenty of reasons why it would benefit a company to keep creative experts on their teams.
Rick Rubin brings ancient wisdom to the modern age in The Way of Code, a meditation on the art and science of vibe coding. With Claude by Anthropic, the Grammy-award winning producer and author of The Creative Act turns philosophy into practice with artifacts that can be creatively modified with AI.
“Undisciplined thinkers force debates into stark ‘tyranny of the or’ choices. Disciplined thinkers expand the conversation to create ‘genius of the and’ solutions.”
— Jim Collins
