I think there is near 100% chance that humans will destroy the planet, or more accurately we'll destroy humankind - the planet will long outlive humans and will probably "heal" itself to some degree after we're gone. The

I've tried the various flavors of self-driving in my Tesla over the past several years, and essentially it came down to a three-strikes rule for me - after the third time that car jerkily exited the self-driving mode on it own (the thi

Aaron Levie strikes me as one of the sharpest and most prescient people in SV. I think you must be 100% correct that he's a true nerd about this stuff, or else he could have gone on to a thousand different things outside of Box by now.

The property tax is calculated based on the last transaction price of the home, so despite it being estimated at $15m today, the owner would be paying tax on a much lower value (assuming they purchased it many years ago).

The whole '*llama' naming convention in the LLM world is more confusing to me than it probably should be. So many llamas running around out here.

The means of suicide are probably too much for the average person to succumb to even in the face of a very hard life. The fact that assisted suicide is broadly illegal in the US is something that I've always found ridiculous. No one as

I've been seriously considering neon for a new application. This definitely gives me pause... maybe plain ol' Postgres is going to be the winner for me again.

I often do a spin class on the Peloton to end my day. Around 8pm I'll do a 30-60min ride, then shower, then straight to bed... works well for me.

The solution lies in eliminating the entire concept of investment properties, and to classify single-homes as purely places to live. You do realize that part of "not enough" houses is due to corporate entities / investment ve

If a government truly wanted to fix a housing "crisis", wouldn't a ban on any type of corporate entity from buying single-family homes be an efficient solution? E.g., LLC's can no longer purchase single-family homes. Onl

I bought my house (in CA) in 2019, and my property tax bill is ~$30k/yr. My literal nextdoor neighbor's property tax bill is less than $1k/yr (it last sold in the 1960s and has been passed down within the same family).

I just recently spent some time in Japan (Kyoto), and I frequently travel to Tokyo. It always interests me to see these Japanese birthrate articles because anecdotally you might never know it while walking around the cities - you'll se

I'm not a researcher or academic, but when I think of roughly how long it takes me to do meaningful deep work and produce a project of any significance, I'm struck by the fact that his 800 papers isn't a red flag? Even if y

The fact that the MrBeast YT channel has over 300 million subscribers, and has such a profound grip on youth attention, is something that I occasionally wonder about (in terms of what it says about culture, youth, etc). From my perspective

You don't have to look too hard to find examples of fully-remote (from day 1) startups succeeding (e.g., Redpanda eating Confluent's lunch). If your company is struggling to succeed then your product(s) simply isn't good enou

I used to be involved in several, highly active group chats. Over time these effectively became a concentrated form of social media, i.e. mostly a distraction and waste of time.

Yes, they're actually awesome. 'Waymo' has replaced 'Uber' in my vocabulary, e.g. "Let's just Waymo there".

The standout bit to me is that they officially refer to the Ethereum blockchain as a "financial system", and clearly one that the US government is defending to some degree. Aside from that, I'm kind of impressed with these tw

This struck me as if it was written by an investment banker, so I looked up the author, and confirmed he was indeed an investment banker prior to joining Sequoia.
