The juxtaposition of MCP vs Skills in the article is very strange. These are not competing ways to achieve something. Rather skills is often a way to enable an optimization on top of MCPs. A simplified but clarifying way to think about i

The sign of a company in absolute decline is when the worst possible place to get info about it, is their official announcement. Whoever wrote the announcement went out of their way to obfuscate the crux of the announcement (compare the cl

I don't think Walter is implying anything about how common or uncommon this is. His core insight seems fairly objective and plausible to me: "...your chances for happiness are increased if you wind up doing something that is a ref

Kudos on the beautifully and thoughtfully designed landing page - which is becoming a rarity these days. Most product landing page highlight adjectives and abstract value propositions with links to join waiting lists for 'priority&#x27

This metaphor may be misleading. For a compelling alternate view, read the excellent: "Is the cell really a machine?" https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S00225... From the ar

"having a very good product isn't a moat" It definitely is. Having the best product and being able to maintain that best-in-class product status over time through a firm's 'internal capabilities' is very much

One tip that I (and many others here ;) ) are going to find pretty easy to do :) That's the kind of research I can get behind.

No - it may work for some employees but it's not far from what will make people who prefer remotely want to suddenly return to office. More importantly, return to office, as the end goal isn't a good end-goal. Sure it can work rea

The author (bafflingly) seems to have completely missed the point- since anything they state up to page 15 (at which point I stopped reading) does not refute Chomsky's points at all. The author talks about LLMs and how they generate te

Neat idea, but some of it is made out to be unnecessarily complex and esoteric. E.g. giving it your name, and now it becomes 'aware' of your name. I guess in normal programming that would be like saying once you declare your vari

Many years ago as an undergrad student I applied for an internship. They asked if I knew "C++", and having studied it and programmed in the only 'C++' I knew I said yes. After arriving at the internship they showed me th

Adobe pays a high valuation in an inflated market for Figma, to continue showing growth that has mostly stalled. Also helps them cross-sell their other products once they get into smaller companies where Figma has a strong foothold. Market

YouTube has been riding it's content momentum for too long. It really needs a change of leadership to continue to innovate. For some searches, it's baffling that the top results are clearly intuitively wrong (e.g. showing videos w

FB and Zuck have always prioritized a culture of building, and created a place (at least in the early days) where builders could thrive. Over time with massive hiring this obviously changed. If they need to further 'trim the fat'

Product Manager can refer to an individual contributor IC or someone who also manages other Product Managers (and sometimes even adjacent functions) e.g. a Group Product Manager. The titles are not very standard though. Many of these roles

There was a different dynamic there. Apple was clearly focussed on the higher end of the market (price point) and unwilling to compromise on profit margins, while willing to sacrifice pure market share. Google took advantage of that to win

A lot (most?) of what's happening in Crypto is quite at odds with the proposed direction in the bitcoin paper (e.g. transparency, (de)centralization) So while a much needed correction for 'crypto' in general, this is not nece

You're not wrong. But that's not how the headline pitches the article. It specifically says 'the currency of the new economy won't be money'; hence my comment.

The dichotomy between attention and money (in this context) is forced and not necessarily true. While it is true that attention is valuable, it is valuable primarily because there is an expectation that it can be monetized (either now or in

This ^ is spot on. While the general 'abstraction' argument is spot on, MS is in fact poorly placed to be the 'OS' that becomes that abstraction. In fact, arguably it doesn't even need to be an 'OS' level
