Traffic is so bad in Paris my Uber driver just drove us to a subway station and carried our bags to Gare du Nord. 😂

Excited to see this release from OpenAI. Instead of begging for an output of a particular form, OpenAI now micromanages the output — token by token — to make sure its response is always valid.

When you get good enough at math the rigor stops being useful and becomes more of a barrier. I’m sure there’s a flavor of this in other disciplines?

I almost paid $50/mo for a SaaS product for work... Then I passed a few screenshots to Claude 3.5 Sonnet, and the documentation to the API I was using. It reimplemented the entire application, and even wrote the entire Modal "backend". 30 minutes start to finish.

I'm getting pretty Pydantic TypeAdapter-pilled. It gives you a path towards defining defaults on TypedDict a la Annotated fields, so you can Unpack them into function signatures. Getting this right _really_ lets you write OSS that folks can truly extend easily.

I haven’t written a Notion doc in months. Linear really is a full toolbox for PMs that’s so ergonomic and delightful for engineers that it’s naturally up to date and a reliable ground truth.

Huge win for Village Global. Lindsay is such an amazing partner to Founders, borne out of her experience as a founder and data wizard herself.

DAMN. OpenAI o1 got a passing score on an UCLA Analysis Qual. #1 analysis department in the country, only 25% of humans pass it historically.
