This…doesn’t mean anything, right? There isn’t a way to say “this was the ARR for Q2” because it’s a projection of the future. Or am I misunderstanding this?

Yes. Elon has a massive controlling share in SpaceX, complete control over the board. SpaceX will be double the size of Tesla after a successful IPO, then they can swallow it and then he has the control over Tesla he’s constantly fighting f

I had this moment recently with implementing facebook oauth. I don’t need to spend mental cycles figuring that out, doing the back and forth with their API, pulling my hair out at their docs, etc. I just want it to work and build my app. AI

> no amount of AI is going to help you debug why your auth flow suddenly broke. What? Coding agents are very capable at helping fix bugs in specific domains. Your examples are like, the exact place where AI can add value. You do an updat

Repeating 2008, where nobody had a good sense of who actually owed what where. This is how Martin Casado can say this isn't like dot-com, because "there isn't as much debt". It's there, just shoved behind the couch.

Yeah interesting...so the libraries don't necessarily go away, they just change shape into skills.

I actually started writing a very similar essay, but the hyperbole got too out of hand – open source isn't dying anytime soon. I do think that SDKs and utility-focused libraries are going to mostly go away, though, and that's less

Hence, "arguably" :) For me, the current state of technology in society was impacted the most by Apple and their vision. Could definitely debate between Apple and Google, but I don't think another company is really in the con

Hopefully the Supreme Court takes away Trump’s tariff toys soon and we can stop doing this.

I wish the article had a quote from a resident who voted against it, saying why they did so.

It’s better for them if you don’t know how long you’ve been talking to the LLM. Timestamps can remind you that it’s been 5 hours: without it you’ll think less about timing and just keep going.

You’re right – the way I phrased it assumes “having a plan” is a possibility for him. It isn’t. The best he was ever going to do was get talent in the room, make a Thinking Machines knockoff blog post with some hand wavey word salad, and st

Wang is a networking machine and has connected with everyone in the industry. Likely was brought in as a recruiting leader. Mark being Mark, though, doesn’t understand the value of vision and figured getting big names in the same room was b

The case against this EO is not “banning new technology”. It’s not allowing the federal government to ban any state regulation. And states having the power to make their own rules is maybe the most American value.

You can do both. Make it public, and it’ll be something to point to for job interviews in the future. Frankly, if it didn’t get interest as a business, the codebase won’t either, so you can still have it for a time when you may want to bui

The missing piece here is Anthropic is not playing the same game. Consumer branding and larger user base are concerns for OpenAI vs Google. Personal chatbot/companion/ search isn’t their focus. Anthropic is going for the enterpris

Could also be a way to expand the customer for Claude Code from coding assistant to vibe coding, a la Replit creating a hosted app. CC working more closely with Bun could make all that happen much faster: > Our default answer was always

A computer is just a tool with an interface. If the interface requires you to learn an entirely new language then it seems like it’s a bad design. Why would you use it?

The primary is ranked choice, so no candidate will win until they have over 50% of the votes. Since neither has that now, there will be a series of rounds of distributing choices to candidates. Cuomo is basically saying “he will probably wi
