Simplification obfuscates meaning and excludes you from the details that you should know about. e.g. I like doctors who correctly use the terms like diagnosis, provisionals, differentials, prognosis, risk-factors when explaining what they are thinking.

I enjoy Policy Tensor’s posts but he’s wrong on this, at an epistemic level. The same kind of mistake George Tanham made in the 1990s. India weight in geopolitics comes from being itself; not following templates. It takes a while for one to really understand this.

This is life: after using Opus for a week (free credits), now I find Sonnet very dumb.

One of the most risky/scary propositions is being seen by a "young" doctor or vet. Low experience + high/tail risk.

Oddly due to AI written materials, I am much more sympathetic to mistakes & not so great writing (like mine) in human written articles.

Even metros will need more dark stores. Wallet share for most households for QC is not saturated yet - for many in metros.

With AI many Individuals are flourishing but teams and organisations are not. I am not sure how this will change. Don't know how organisations will react to this unevenness.

Some observations on agents from a lot of time spent installing, using, debugging and building things with OpenClaw, Hermes, etc. - Most people who rave about OpenClaw, HermesAgent etc. have not actually used it. Facts. - Agents are developer products today. They are so so so

Is a multi-polar world really going to be more dangerous? I am not convinced by the theory. 1. Decentralisation aligns incentives 2. There are more independent counterbalances 3. Not that the US centered unipolar was less dangerous (ask all the countries attacked by the US)

10 yrs. USD/INR from 66 -> 95. Compounding rate = ((95/66) ^ (1/10)) - 1 = 3.6%. I think this guy doesn't know maths or finance or both.

Now Iran is overplaying its hand.

Iran has handed over the moral upper hand to the US. And it matters. As we will see now.

Head somewhere: human beings have infinite product backlog

Primary reason for staying invested during war like this: - in a quarter good sense will prevail During COVID - humanity will figure out To a pessimist this is irrational. Perhaps rightly. But long term investing is for optimists anyway.

Our agreement with SpaceX means we will use all the compute capacity at their Colossus 1 data center. This will give us over 300 megawatts of additional capacity to deploy within the month.

Outside of Coinbase, did any other major service have a 8-hour outage? I’ll be honest: did not notice anything else. Want to make sure I didn’t miss anything? (AWS had an outage in a single AZ. This should have… NOT taken down any service with resiliency 101)

Far cheaper to hire junior engineers, train them in your specific product/architecture (sandbox) and AI - than hire senior engineers at higher salary and maybe slightly higher productivity. There you go.

29 companies in India that gave similar (217%) annualised return over 3 years. Likely some were a few mutual funds too which had them. This information doesn't help anyone make extraordinary returns.

Never said that

There are very good reasons, I suppose. - gym, pool, sports facilities - less maintenance to do yourself - easy access to the maid pool, car wash service But financially, you live in a much slower appreciating asset.
