California’s wealth tax is indeed ridiculous. Take Ilya Sutskever as an example. He has $20B+ worth of OpenAI equity now. Let’s say he owns 1/3 of SSI, worth $10B+. He has to give California 5% x (20+10) = $1.5B. And he cannot pay with OpenAI/SSI equity. He has to pay in cash!

If these were arms of a "Novel Rx vs Standard of Care" study in cancer, they'd be landmark best-in-class Instead it's the same Rx regimen just dosed in the morning or afternoon, for mAbs with half-lives of weeks... A few hours different in dosing leads to 60% delta on survival

I use a very specific prompt to push Claude to check its work and do a lot of testing and thinking about perf and refactoring. I find I can do big features (4K LOC+ with full testing) in about an hour.
