The same company intentionally driving minors towards this content (despite claiming to care about them) is also lobbying in secrecy for requiring all of us to scan our ID and face in order to use our phones and computers. Their stated reas

There are important contexts outside of machines you control where installing or running cli commands isn’t possible. In those cases, skills won’t help, but MCP will.

Agreed. Only provide the servers and tools needed for that job. It would be silly to provide every employee access to GitHub, regardless of whether they need it. It’s just distracting and unnecessary risk. Yet people are over-provisioning M

That was fast! I guess that wasn’t the most profitable position to hold. Fail fast!

You’re probably underestimating how much credit is available to people. Having money issues? Keep paying your car while you borrow money from Klarna for your DoorDash chipotle.

I think the most accurate part of your analogy is how fast the technology changes and renders yesterday’s product obsolete. Just saw the Audi etron gt has amazing deals on used cars. Then I saw a new model coming out with better battery, mo

Hey, did you read the article? The newsworthy point is that the EVs depreciate faster than gas counterparts. But hey, that just means better used EV prices for the rest of us. You can get some high end gently used ones for a great price. —

My use is more episodic than daily. But I love mine for many of the same reasons others have cited. On a plane this is so useful. Flights go by much faster. When traveling it’s so much less of a productivity drag to be able to pop this on a

I was wondering when books were going to start popping up. Looking forward to reading. Have you written about MCP gateways for helping companies route all MCP traffic through one plane for observability, security, and compliance? Happy to c

Anyone ever experience Zoom meeting lag that reproducibly connects with receiving a Mac notification? I've had this issue on my M1 and now my M4 mac for about a year now, and I can't figure it out. Uninstalling and reinstalling ha

AI just amplifies an existing organization. This paper generally confirms what I think most already know. Executives are blaming the model quality, but that’s not the problem. It’s how well the AI understands what it is supposed to do and h

I feel this. Tried launching something in 2022. Night of the launch, my whole team pulls an all nighter. Some launches suddenly pull ahead with 20 upvotes right out of the gate. We have a handful. I see the same LinkedIn messages this autho

Agreed. I think most can agree that the protocol itself leaves a lot to be desired. But the idea itself is compelling: documentation + invocation in a bi-directional protocol. And enough real players have thrown their weight behind making t

MCP feels like the 1903 Wright Flyer right now. MCP is a novel technology that will probably transform our world, provides numerous advantages, comes with some risks, and requires skill to operate effectively. Sure, none of the underlying t

MCP is like the "app store" for LLMs. LLMs can only do so much by themselves. They need connectivity to pull in context or take actions. Just like how your phone without apps is pretty limited in how useful it is. Sure, teams coul

This is such a useful pattern. I’ve ended up building similar things over and over again. For example, simplifying the worker-page connection in a browser or between chrome extension “background” scripts and content scripts. There’s a reaso

Content is one thing. But it gets me really concerned about these kind of appeal processes when it comes to more critical things like your identity or proof of personhood. It is not hard to imagine getting a black mark in some invisible pro

This whole “real phone number is your access code to every service” trend is really frustrating. I had the same experience recently with: - Ticketmaster - Docusign - Vercel Probably a handful more I forgot. I believe the main reason is beca

It’s still too early to see real benefits. Wrapping business processes around these LLMs is the same kind of hard organizational problem plaguing most internal IT projects. People are still the bottleneck. You also run into the issue of acc

When the incentives are this large, it’s just too profitable to not “be evil.” We can decry this, but it’s just human nature. I also think this is a sign of late stage capitalism where the opportunities to profit “ethically” are becoming mu

Well, nobody's forced it, but my company publishes content on TikTok that drives customers, and I want to be able to see it myself. You'd be surprised how many CISOs and security workers are on TikTok. Edit: "experts" &g

It's incredibly useful! I have one profile for the "social" apps I don't trust (TikTok, Reddit, etc.). They can commingle. And there's another profile that contains the apps that rely on Google Play Services (e.g. s

I just bought a pixel from best buy to install gos, which was an ordeal. At checkout they looked at me like I was up to no good when I said I didn’t want to give them my name, address, and phone number just to purchase the device. I didn’t

Yeah I thought a lot about this. I was super hesitant at first but thought that this might be the most accepting place of any. For the most part, my comments were getting tons of upvotes and replies and so I thought “wow this is furthering
