There’s a ton of Savior syndrome in the top AI labs where they believe the world would end unless they were there.

I really hope the best AIs that actually solve critical problems come from companies who are open source scrutiny friendly.

Altman, Hassabis, Musk, Dario, Picchai, or the leaders. A concentrated AI power in any of their hands is absolutely corrupting.

AI only works if the know how is diffused and competing on even playing fields.

Good to know how crappy Grok is and GPT falling behind Anthropic. Meta almost given up on Llama.

So more money isn’t yielding better models. That’s a good sign.


The Q is does this accelerate solar and wind, or just makes life more miserable for everyone and we’re back to the same next election.

US falling behind China. There’s a good possibility trillions allocated in datacenter buildout was misallocation of capital by markets.


Yes. But without new money in economy, that $50B is not being spent elsewhere.

So Oil barons getting rich, at the expense of everyone else.

“Make America Feel Poor Again”


Haha. US ain’t got the balls to fight NK. They got nukes and US presidents take pictures with their supreme leader.

Iran knows what’s on the other side once they have nukes. No one touches them.


Yeah not having a switch to turn off shirts is a great indicator that Google’s “do no evil” is a relic of the past.

Google gives no fucks other than printing more billions every quarter.


It's a major disservice to me as a paying user too.

Netflix like any rational business keeps on increasing its prices until their profits no longer grow, or a new entrant eats their lunch.

Oh boy.

I’m dealing with IRS right now to get an EIN for an LLC. They won’t give an EIN over online form. Must be faxed or physically mailed.

They say 3-5 days. Been weeks. I pay $5/week to hold onto a fax number.

So Trump spending hundreds of billions on blowing up kids’ schools in Iran and cutting funding from IRS.

Why does it take weeks to start a business in 2026 and get a bank account.

Just absurd.


Hmm the online EIN form will give you an EIN instantly unless you don't have an ITIN or you are incorporated outside the US, in which case you would have to do it offline. https://sa.www4.irs.gov/applyein/

I remember using it and worrying about losing the EIN at the last step, so I saved the document several times and printed it several times too.


Originally of Flash-ActionScript frame.

He’s been an inspiration for me, his demos got me into coding.


Oh the irony of US is the paper tiger like Russia and Iran is the underdog like Ukraine.

Trump made a very strategic error that he can’t easily get out of.

US borrowing trillions in debt to fund other people’s wars. This level of stupidity is Bush in Afhanistan.


Always wondered why Atlassian was so big. Their software is utter garbage. Slow, clunky.

They don’t treat their employees well. Now with all the AI slop, it seems they don’t know what good software is.

Yeah if you have option to move away from Atlassian, you should do so.

Modern tools like Claude code have the ability to craft and bring dreams to reality.

Atlassian is old school. Their rich CEOs no longer care about good software. They are rent extractors.
