Our politicians are absolutely pathetic. The minuscule amount of work they do manage to get done is almost laughably dystopian, self interested, and out of touch. No accountability, ever.

Do you think we decide to do things based on whether it works, or is right? It’s a product they’re selling. Nobody really cares about anything except making money.

Because we are in fact so disconnected from our military today, modern people have forgotten that human civilization itself has been a military industrial complex forever. Not much to do with capitalism in particular.

Many humans don’t have the barest empathy for the people and animals around them that obviously feel a lot.

That is step 6. Step 1 is “fundamentally change how modern Capitalism considers making money the only moral good.” It will collapse first.

Definitely possible. A cool idea. But that’s also a lot of credit for “big tech”. Meta, Google, Netflix, and others have produced almost nothing cool for a decade. Apple is one of the few behemoths seemingly capable of actually getting any

This resonates with me, thanks for sharing. It’s always felt obvious to me that dreams are the brain processing. Usually my dreams are anxious, and I’m an anxious person during the day.

It feels like you don’t need encryption here, you just need a business model that doesn’t keep user accounts and sell the query data.

What is different here? FTX bought shitcoins. SVB bought MBS. They gambled rates wouldn’t change and customer’s wouldn’t withdraw.

In the immortal words of Andrew Lahde who closed his hedge fund up 800% in 2008, “I was in this game for the money. The low hanging fruit, i.e. idiots whose parents paid for prep school, Yale, and then the Harvard MBA, was there for the tak

Sam Trabuco still on his yacht hoping they forget about him. It was literally as simple as not gambling customer deposits on shitcoins. That’s all they had to do. Greedy little Jane Street alumna.

It feels like you immediately get on the right track and can refine it with no clutter whereas when you Google you may flounder for a bit before finding the path among the ads, bad blog posts, questionable StackOverflow…

Intellectually these internet bloggers that work for the major outlets these days are just shy of the bottom of the barrel. It shows.

Who are these people who see something amazing like this and actually just can’t process it? Their brains can’t handle it.

The more you look at this “team” section the weirder it gets.

No scandals, no twitter addiction, no sexual assault cases. No bullshit. All this guy does is wake up at 4, work till 10, and sleep. Cuts his own pay voluntarily. Didn’t double his headcount while revenues fell like so many. Tim Cook is suc

Usage numbers to me mean nothing here because in my mind it’s the same 1,000,000 people using Nostr, setting up Mastadon instances, running crypto mining nodes, whatever else. There are two kinds of users - people who care about what window

I remember when I was a kid and I went to a friend’s birthday party, a Warriors game. His Dad was general partner of a VC firm, owned part of the Warriors and we had a center box with a buffet and everything. The mascot came to hang out wit

Great move by them to introduce a license requirement for 250+ seats but not waste resources enforcing it (as far as I can tell). Those who will pay, will pay. Those who won’t, will switch tools no matter how painful. They stayed relevant b

There was some innovation but 2010-2020 had some dead air as investors lavished ponzi scheme SaaS companies with cash and big firms poured the profits of early internet into VR, AR, AI, drones, self-driving, etc. The last year and a half th

Being easy to reason about is so important. In my experience this is somewhere Security teams often make what I consider mistakes. Although something may appear to make the system more secure, it can make it much more complex, and then trou

In my opinion 90% of the reason we don’t have more accidents is because people are so predictable. Watch dangerous drivers weave through traffic - it’s only possible because everyone follows spoken and unspoken rules. Randomly stopping is n

Talk about cherry picking. The first article I see is a plain report.

It’s just as easy to tell a story about how the employees tried to be decent, were ignored or silenced, and had to speak out more aggressively. Your view is clearly biased and it’s a take as old as time - if that darn Dr. King didn’t block

I just keep my draw.io files, generated pngs, and markdown docs all with the code. Version control, etc.

You’re not asking it to rearchitect your whole company and software stack. I think you’d be surprised by how much value is there, instead of writing HN essays about what we all know isn’t there. Same goes for crypto.

Have you used it? Start working on anything. Next time you go to Google how to do something, or want to name something, or want to convert formats, or a dozen other things, just ask GPT. Say “give me 5 cool names for this”. Any task. “Show

The brand in general is incredibly weak now. When I use Google it feels cluttered with ads and useless results. Using GPT was such a relief. I use it 75% versus Google 25% for data science hobby projects.

All of the Altman/Graham clique talk a big game but are simps for big money and power at the end of the day. Like many of us.

Watching the Bayhem piece by Every Frame A Painting gave a ton of great context for Michael Bay’s work. Super interesting, ten minutes long, worth a watch. That channel is full of grade A content.
