Entire US economy's growth this year was based on AI datacenters and you're sleeping on decentralized datacenters. Not perps. Not memes. Not DATs. 👉 fortune.com/2025/10/07/dat…

The more I research the market for ai compute the more it looks like a nascent commodity market. And those markets are built by Chicago and NYC not Silicon Valley. I expect a lot of VC capital to be burned trying to shoehorn a commodity market startup into a tech startup.

It's simple. If you want to keep federal troops out of San Francisco, remove the organized drug dealers and 80% of the problem goes away. If you don't, you reap what you sow.

lore drop: gist.github.com/randallb/008a0… My codex system prompt (also symlinked to claude) I added the team culture section recently. It seems to be helping it ask fewer “why don’t we add x as well? Let me know if you need y” type questions

Now that I know there are two harrison fords, in my mind i always say "which one" even though nobody has ever talked about the silent-film-star harrison ford in a modern context.

Pretty wild to think Apple was so far ahead on Siri, and the current state of Apple's personal assistant products compared to something like ChatGPT. Might be the biggest technology miss of all time.

The most famous public Facebook-ism is "Move fast and break things." "Done is better than perfect." "Code wins arguments." I've found introducing concepts like that in my AGENTS.md / claude.md file tend to drive the AI toward agreeing with me.
