   I have been working on this issue for a bit, and the most interesting approach I have seen so far comes from the research domain of information-flow control, specifically Microsoft’s FIDES work. The idea is not to distinguish instructions f

   Collectively, Alphabet (Google), Amazon, Microsoft, and Nvidia already own approximately 25 - 35% of OpenAI and Anthropic respectively. They already are a part of your portfolio.

   I have been working on my own "Digital Twins Universe" because 3rd-party SaaS tools often block the tight feedback loops required for long-horizon agentic coding. Unlike Stripe, which offers a full-featured environment usable in b

   I think you’re conflating security with compliance. If the goal is to stop breaches, we should mandate MFA and ban default-public cloud buckets. Those are technical solutions. GDPR, instead, mandates a massive administrative layer. No data

   Thanks for the comment. It actually perfectly illustrates my point. Most people equate GDPR with a "Delete My Account" button, but that’s just the tip of the iceberg. We didn't spend thousands of hours on a deletion feature (

   As a European founder building startups since 2015, I’ve spent a massive chunk of my career navigating the "alphabet soup" of EU regulation: GDPR, DSA, DMA, AI Act, CSRD, SFDR, CBAM... the list is exhausting. While the goals are u

   Interestingly, sticking to the "Agent = REPL" mental model is actually what helped me solve those specific scaling problems (sub-agents and shared data) without the SDK bloat. 1. Sub-agents are just stack frames. When the main loo

   We're repeating the same overengineering cycle we saw with early LangChain/RAG stacks. Just a couple of months ago the term agent was hard to define, but I've realized the best mental model is just a standard REPL: Read: Gath

   It depends on how you define “safer.” Cities have a higher frequency of accidents, but with lower severity. Highways have a lower frequency of accidents, but with higher severity. So in this case, you probably want to opt for accidents of l

    I agree, LLM translations are not only more convenient but also much more capable. I often find myself giving instructions on how to translate text, such as asking the LLM to use formal language in the target language or to apply specific g

    Lemonsqueezy, Gumroad, and Paddle also act as the merchants of record, meaning they assume liability for every transaction. Their role extends beyond simply handling invoicing.

    While I agree with your statement and recognize that, for now, Perplexity has only introduced a financial information platform comparable to Google Finance or Yahoo Finance, the true value of any forward-looking financial model is rooted in

    The international business class is simply inferior to most of its competitors. Other airlines offer larger seats (4 seats per row vs. 6 seats per row). Their onboard entertainment systems use more modern hardware, provide a better selectio

    This looks really cool! Working on multiple projects with different versions before tools like pyenv or nvm existed was a real challenge. As someone working with different programming languages as well, this tool looks like the next logical

    The comments in this thread appear to overlook a crucial point. The business model of rental companies fundamentally revolves around earning more from vehicles than the depreciation costs incurred before resale. However, the recent price re

    Allocating public housing could be done through an auction system. Bidders would submit offers for annual rent. The surplus, after deducting costs, could then be allocated to buying or building additional housing for this program. Alternati

    I'm wondering the same thing. The current rise in interest rates must have been a scenario that the bank considered. How can we still have a system that allows situations like this to happen? Other than negligence or malpractice, I can

    This approach seems to require knowledge of which LLM was used to generate the given text. I wonder if e.g. model fine-tuning - as already provided by Open AI [0] - could evade this detection approach. [0] https://beta.openai.com
