The net global long on the US right now is indeed massive -- Tis the flip side of a negative 92% of GDP (call it close to 100% of GDP) net international investment position for the US

The company that created Claude Code and Claude Cowork must have obviously built their own HR solution from scratch with these tools, right? No: they use Workday. Understand why this is, and you'll understand why enterprise SaaS could be doing better than ever, thanks to AI

A few random notes from claude coding quite a bit last few weeks. Coding workflow. Given the latest lift in LLM coding capability, like many others I rapidly went from about 80% manual+autocomplete coding and 20% agents in November to 80% agent coding and 20% edits+touchups in

We were discussing how much disk space we needed and of the engineers said his estimate was “conservative”. I don’t want any of that partisan crap so I fired him on the spot.

Genie is definitely doing something fancy. But if we look at it from the perspective of generating games, this path seems close, yet it’s actually very far. Games are fundamentally different from video, and there are a few hard hurdles you can’t avoid. 1. Long term consistency

I'm being accused of overhyping the [site everyone heard too much about today already]. People's reactions varied very widely, from "how is this interesting at all" all the way to "it's so over". To add a few words beyond just memes in jest - obviously when you take a look at

"But the rate of profit does not, like rent and wages, rise with the prosperity, and fall with the declension, of the society. On the contrary, it is naturally low in rich, and high in poor countries, and it is always highest in the countries which are going fastest to ruin." —

I think it's best for everyone to understand that the unified class project of billionaires right now is to do to white collar workers what globalization and neoliberalism did to blue collar workers.

Research finds that people overestimate how many social media users post harmful content--which makes us think the world is worse than it really is. On average, they believed that 43% of all Reddit users have posted severely toxic comments and that 47% of all Facebook users have

LLM hallucination is just math fitting a smooth curve and producing the most likely continuation. It’s matrix multiplication, so it will always output something that maps to a language object. None of this has anything to do with consciousness. Whenever humans invent a new tech

Next time you feel bad for missing something that mooned Imagine being SBF: - Put $500m into Anthropic, which would now be worth $70b. - Held $60m in $SOL at $8 that would've been worth $2.1b at the top. - Put $100m into Mysten Labs that would now be worth over $800m. -
