RT @jakemintz: I misunderstood this when it launched. This is the first / best true agent<>human collaboration space I have seen. You are sharing a whole computer with AI and can collaborate on anything. When writing a doc the agent sees the comments, you can have a side text/voice chat, you can have it navigate or you navigate while you talk. It's really impressive and the largest step forward in AI UI that I have seen. It is not just adding a sidebar AI chat to productivity apps, it's much more seamless, comprehensive, and natural than that. I'm struggling to articulate because it looks similar but is very different. Thank you @LudvigSwanstrom. Everyone, check it out.
中文: RT @jakemintz:我在它发布时误解了这一点。这是我见过的第一个/最优秀的真实协作空间。你正在与人工智能共享一台完整的计算机,并且可以在任何事物上进行协作。编写文档时,代理会看到评论,可以进行侧边文字/语音聊天,或在通话时进行导航。 这确实令人印象深刻,也是我所见过的人工智能用户界面领域最大的进步。它不仅仅是在生产力应用中添加侧边栏的AI聊天,它比这要顺畅、全面和自然得多。我难以表达,因为它看起来相似,却截然不同。 谢谢@LudvigSwanstrom。大家,去看看。

RT @SusanDReynolds: Voters should never forget that Gary McCoy, a longtime executive at harm reduction grift machine HealthRight 360, is a proven liar and a bully: He fudged the numbers at the Linkage Center and lied about successes that never happened. It was nothing more than a drug den, which McCoy supports. Full story: https://susanreynolds.substack.com/p/the-grift-that-keeps-on-giving?utm_source=publication-search He wasted nearly 3 years tying up the courts trying to get the identity of a gay icon, ruining his life over a Twitter meme. McCoy also asked a judge to force me to give up my source, and tried to serve @EricaJSandberg in the lawsuit for simply sharing the meme. Full story: https://susanreynolds.substack.com/p/a-gay-icon-is-living-in-fear-because?utm_source=publication-search He was part of London Breed’s “troll patrol” — a group of bullies who called @AngelaAlioto1 supporters “Nazis” and said Alioto was “one white hood away from being in the KKK.” Full story: https://www.reynoldsrap.org/london-breeds-troll-patrol/ He was president of the Milk Club where the same group of people involved in the Manny accusations accused Shahid Buttar of sexual assault when he ran against McCoy’s boss Nancy Pelosi (claims that I later proved were untrue). Full story: https://www.marinatimes.com/smear-campaign-against-shahid-buttar-smacks-of-racism McCoy is a proven liar and a bully. He was still far behind Manny. Timing of the latest story is suspect — ballots are just going out — as is the author Joe Fitz, a known far left operative. Considering how McCoy lied about the Linkage Center, his involvement in this spectacle is entirely plausible. His reputation precedes him — as do the receipts found in my stories linked above. Keep all of this in mind when you go to the polls.

RT @VirtualElena: when we think about ai in the physical world, we usually default to thinking about humanoids or self-driving cars or or models helping scientists discover new drugs and materials. but there’s another version of physical-world ai that i think deserves more attention: using intelligence to orchestrate all the benign-seeming things that have to happen for something to get built. which is especially important because the physical world is this wildly chaotic unpredictable place. what happens when the physical world refuses to cooperate. your shipment falls off a ship. or a strait closes. where, exactly, can an agent intervene? this is the problem we get into in my conversation with @askvladi, cofounder of lio, and @seema_amble. lio builds ai agents for procurement, in other words the work of figuring out what a company needs to buy, finding suppliers, negotiating terms, and making sure the right things arrive. when you’re building an aircraft or a data center, those decisions connect engineering, logistics, and finance in very consequential ways. vlad’s answer to the question of how to wrangle the physical world was about probability. suppliers have different records of reliability and routes have different risks. understanding those things in concert changes what you should buy / what you should pay: a cheap component that holds up an entire project can become a very expensive component. this all requires a much richer understanding of the world than the price and delivery date sitting in an enterprise database. i think this is a very compelling application of ai. a lot of our ability to build more ambitious things depends on making thousands of these decisions well. robots justifiably get a lot of attention; getting everything required to build them in the same place at the right time is just as important!

RT @vivianmshen: I’m joining @ycombinator as a General Partner. YC is a homecoming for every GP. All of us were previously YC founders, and lived the journey that we support founders through every day. Our alma mater taught us the lessons that we pass on. My founder path was infinitely harder than I thought it would be. We hit incredible highs and brutal lows. We came within a few months of zero runway. The YC mantras kept me going: make something people want, and don’t die. Over the course of my companies, we touched thousands of lives: employing people in almost every US state (Alaska still evades me!), and teaching STEM to students from every walk of life. Now, I’ve had the privilege of working with founders who are tackling some of the hardest problems today, including defense, space, energy, and manufacturing. We’re also entering an era of diffusing AI across businesses of all sizes, and founders are bringing these tools into their old workplaces and new customers to make work better. Finally, I’m particularly interested in our work at YC to partner closely with the government to make sure technology serves everyone. Our Startup Industrial Base conference yesterday was the start of this, with more to come. Founders are the backbone of American innovation and core to the future of our country and economy. Thank you to the YC partnership for believing in me, and the YC founders for trusting me. There’s never been a better time to make something people want.

RT @mernit: The most valuable advice we got during YC was to explain our company using verbs instead of nouns. Early on, I walked into a pitch and did the complete opposite: “We’re reinventing the cloud for AI” No one had any clue what that meant. I could (very painfully) see their eyes glazing over Then I started saying this instead: “Developers bring us their code and we run it on servers in the cloud so they don’t have to manage their own infra” This clicked immediately. People understand verbs - not labels. And no one buys or invests in things they don’t understand.

I asked Secretary Duffy what Americans should be able to do, if we get this decade right, that they can't do today. Sean Duffy is the Secretary of Transportation, and he sat down with me at our Startup Industrial Base event in DC today. He went straight to how our country's air traffic gets managed. At the command center, people sit in front of six screens with a paper flight chart above them, trying to make the calls on weather and routing. His example: four planes reach the same runway at the same time and only one can land. See it two hours out, speed up two, slow one down, and each one lands when the runway is open. "Like, not complicated stuff, but we don't do any of this." Paper and pencil and minimal human augmentation from software looks like this: Say an airport can take 15 planes in a 15 minute window. "Well, the airlines will schedule 32." He says he's handing the airlines that data and asking them to spread out. The tool is SMART, from Air Space Intelligence, a small company he says competed with the biggest companies and won. It predicts. His stage example: a 2.5 hour ground stop might only need 45 minutes. He's taken heat for supposedly handing air traffic control to AI. Duffy's answer? "it's dumb AI, not smart AI." Controllers still make every call. None of this needs a breakthrough. It needs the will of the people to know they need to use software and be ok with AI augmentation instead of insisting on a paper chart and copper wire.

The Pentagon's 300-page RFP "was designed for a lawyer and a lobbyist and a prime contractor to know how to fill out." That's Emil Michael, Under Secretary of War for Research & Engineering, saying it out loud to a room full of founders at our Startup Industrial Base event in DC today. A 10-person startup reads 300 pages, gets one thing wrong, gets kicked out. Or survives and grinds through 3, 6, 9, 12 month rounds until it's two years in. Meanwhile the prime has a team whose whole job is filling out every page perfectly. Emil’s fix? Write a one pager not 300. "I need to fly a missile 500 miles in this kind of environment." If your payload won't work, you hear that fast. Target is 90 days. Drone Dominance runs the same way. Apply, top 20 go to a fly-off, objective metrics, cuts every round, and he says half a billion dollars of orders at the end. "I'd rather know if I lose and why." Miss round one and there are more rounds coming, and "it'll be 2 or 3" winners, not one. Cost per intercept is the game now. Shoot down a $50k drone with a Patriot missile and "the math doesn't math." He's funding directed energy and high power microwave that cost thousands, not millions. The tech was never what kept startups out. The 300 pages were. Two pages and a fly-off means the best product can actually win, and the prime has to compete like everyone else.
中文: 五角大楼300页的RFP“是为律师、游说人员以及主要承包商设计的,旨在了解如何填写。” 这是《战争研究与工程部副部长》的艾米尔·迈克尔,今天在华盛顿特区的初创企业产业基地活动上,向满是创始人的房间大声道。 一家10人的初创公司阅读了300页,弄错了一件事,被赶了出去。或者生存并磨练3、6、9、12个月,直到两年过。与此同时,首相拥有一支团队,其整个工作完全完整地填满了每一页。 埃米尔的修复?写一个单页,而不是300。我需要在这种环境下驾驶一枚500英里的导弹。如果你的有效载荷无法工作,你就会很快听到那声音。目标为90天。 无人机的统治方式也是如此。申请前20名将采用客观的客观指标,每轮都进行削减,他称到最后将完成5亿美元的订单。如果输了,我宁愿知道为什么。错过第一轮,还有更多的回合即将到来,“会是2到3个冠军,而不是一个。” 每次拦截的费用就是现在的游戏。用爱国者导弹击落一架5万美元的无人机,而“数学并不算数”。他资助的是能源和高功率微波,耗资数千,而不是数百万。 这项技术从未让初创企业脱颖而出。300页是。两页和一次飞逝意味着最优秀的产品能够真正获胜,而巅峰者必须像其他人一样竞争。

Send out three subagents: - scout (use Haiku): read each README and list the install command, where the data is stored, whether it needs an API key, whether it costs extra tokens, whether it runs a background process, and the license. - architect: look at my project and CLAUDE.md, pick one per category, and explain why you picked it over the other one in that category. - verifier: after I restart Claude Code, open a brand-new session with claude -p and ask about a decision we made earlier. For the code graph, ask who calls a specific function. Paste me the raw output. Show me the commands before installing anything, and install only after I confirm.

RT @GJarrosson: Paul Graham's new essay has a line that explains a lot of what I see win in YC Sell to companies when they're tiny, and you grow at their rate, not yours. His e.g. is Stripe. Sign companies up at the first possible moment, charge on usage, and because payments never churn once they work, you compound at the growth rate of every startup you ever onboarded. Why selling to tiny startups beats chasing enterprise: 1. They decide in days, not quarters. Founders are sophisticated and move fast, so the best product wins. Enterprise sales is mud, and mud is not where quality wins. 2. They don't churn. Get in early on usage-based pricing and you're strapped to their growth. 3. Everyone underrates them. "They have no money" is backwards. They have VC money and a 10x-a-year goal growth rate. It is often a criticism of YC companies to sell to their own batchmates on day one, but do the ones who brag "we sell to enterprises" cap their growth at how fast a procurement team moves? Imagine being in a YC batch and solving problems for companies like WhatNot, After Query or Starcloud.... you are attaching yourself to a rocketship. Get them early. Charge on usage. Grow at their speed and hold on tight!

RT @chr1sa: The bioethics circle jerks during the Human Genome Project, which were allocated 5% of the project's funding, were a total waste of time. They had countless conferences and workshops imagining bad things that could happen like punitive health insurance rates based on genetic risk, none of which actually came to pass. Meanwhile all the real issues that arose from ubiquitous DNA data, like accidentally doxing your criminal relatives with your own 23andMe data, were never imagined.

RT @stretchcloud: AgentMail just shipped AgentID, and it's a small feature pointed at a problem that's already out of control. The idea: an agent gets its own OpenID Connect identity, backed by a verified email and a signing key stored locally. No SDK, just two config values, and it slots straight into Clerk, Supabase, Auth0, and Better Auth. The demo shows an agent signing into Firecrawl and Turso with its own credential instead of a copy of yours. Here's why that matters right now. GitGuardian's 2026 report found 29 million leaked secrets last year, and flagged AI agent credentials specifically as a category that's spiraling, because the easiest way to give an agent access to anything is still to hand it your API key and hope. The bigger players agree this is the next infrastructure layer, not a nice to have. Okta launched a Universal Agent Identity Provider this year, in early access, plus a Cross App Access protocol built for agent to app handoffs. Auth0 shipped its own agent identity layer in May. WorkOS added agent registration as a credential type distinct from human users. Twilio went further and acquired Stytch this year specifically for its agent identity and consent tooling, which is about as clear a signal as an acquisition gets. I keep thinking about how OAuth itself only existed because password sharing between apps became unworkable around 2007. Same shape of problem, new class of actor. We handed agents write access to our inboxes, our databases, our deploy pipelines, and gave almost no thought to how they prove who they are or how you revoke them. AgentMail is a small startup solving a sliver of this, agent sign in specifically. But the fact that Okta, Auth0, WorkOS, and Twilio are all building some version of the same primitive in the same year tells me identity is about to become as core to agent infra as memory and tool calling already are. https://x.com/utpalnadiger/status/2104098648980439132

RT @ycombinator: One of the biggest surprises in AI over the last few years has been how well coding agents generalize beyond software. In a recent essay, MIT professor Philip Isola argued that we may be entering the era of robot-use agents: general-purpose models that can control different robots, write policies, and learn new physical tasks with little or no robot-specific training. In this episode of Decoded, we're joined by the founders of @theWaddleLabs and @Robocurve, two of the startups whose work helped drive this realization. They're working at the frontier of using general-purpose models to control robots, and their recent demos helped inspire the growing conversation around robot-use agents. Together, we dig into the research behind that idea, from code-as-policies and vision-language-action models to the harnesses and evals needed to make these systems work in the real world. 00:00 — What Are Robot-Use Agents? 02:11 — From Vision-Language-Action Models to General LLMs 04:07 — The Bitter Lesson for Robotics 07:04 — How Coding Agents Learned to Control Robots 10:41 — How Robots Learn From Experience 14:22 — The Harness as a Form of Robot Intelligence 16:14 — Watching Astra Control a Robot 20:55 — Why General Models May Win in Robotics 26:05 — How Close Are General-Purpose Robots?

RT @mathewpregasen: Given that I was part of YC W20 and now YC F26, I'm often asked about the differences between the batches. This either comes from actual curiosity or some hidden expectation for me to say it's "gone downhill". Let me answer the former and dispel the latter. There are huge differences, but probably not in the way you'd expect. There's a lot of public chatter about YC backing younger founders, inexperienced founders, and losing its touch. This isn't true. Remotely. There were incredibly talented founders in YC W20, and the same is true for this batch as well. Last batch, we had PostHog and WhatNot. This time, we'll have similar outcomes. The other day, someone tweeted "YC doesn't back visionary founders". But the point of doing YC isn't to advertise your vision; it's to quickly test your hypothesis in a structured environment. The biggest difference between my batch experiences is the location. Previously, YC was in Mountain View, and while YC recommended founders to live in Mountain View, many (if not most) lived in San Francisco. This meant a fair part of the YC experience was commuting down on the Caltrain, attending events, and then going your separate ways. Now, YC is in Dogpatch, and literally everyone lives in the same four apartment buildings. That makes a massive difference. You run into founders in the elevator. You run into founders when getting packages, You run into founders on the street. Everyone is building something, everything is talking about agents & harnesses, everyone is talking about the YC calendar. This sense of location builds community. I think YC's done a great job of not going full-send on campus. It's good to have independence. You choose where you live, what you eat, how you work, what you do. But the co-location in Dogpatch creates a lot of spontaneous encounters that lead to learnings and sometimes even new customers. Another difference is the schedule and partitions. One issue with YC W20 is it had a rigid schedule, and too many founders in one room. It's hard to build relationships if you feel the constant pressure to meet more and more people. The new structure keeps everyone in consistent groups so you build actual connections; it also has opportunities to meet everyone else without exhausting everyone's social battery. I can somewhat understand the YC haters because YC can look like a bunch of copycats from the outside. I remember a few batches after YC W20, I was looking at YC announcements from W23 or S24 and thinking the same. But then you return to YC and realize that's all a bunch of nonsense: social media distorts reality, and the same brilliant founders that YC backs have been in YC all along. All in all, I think @ycombinator's evolution has been positive; the move to Dogpatch was brilliant; and the orange remains really f'ing orange.

RT @ian_dot_so: People forget how bad Claude used to be. In YC W23 we got access through a Slack bot, and it was generally considered a joke next to ChatGPT, which was all anyone in the world was talking about. Copilot was SotA for real engineering work. SVB collapsed the day before fundraising. Cursor wasn't a thing yet. Claude Code wouldn't come out for 2 more years (!). Prompt engineering was the hot skill to double down on. Founders who built tightly coupled harnesses and guardrails had a bad time once agents actually worked in late 2025. That was only ~3 years ago. Things are changing mind-bendingly fast.
中文: RT @ian_dot_so:人们忘记了克劳德曾经有多糟糕。 在YC W23中,我们通过Slack机器人获得了访问权限,这通常被认为是与ChatGPT并置的玩笑,而ChatGPT是世界上所有人都在谈论的。Copilot 是 SotA 的真正工程工作。 SVB在筹款前一天倒闭了。柯索还不是个事。克劳德·德西德不会再推出两年了(!)。快速工程是加倍努力的热技能。 建造紧密耦合的线束和护栏的创始人们在2025年底经纪人实际工作时过得很糟糕。 那才是三年前的事了。事情变化得非常迅速。

RT @ycombinator: Congrats to Alex, Ben, and @hubble_network (YC W22) on their $200M Series C at a $1.6B valuation! Hubble's satellite network lets any Bluetooth device connect directly to orbit with just a software update. Cellular covers about 15% of Earth's landmass, and tracking anything beyond that has meant satellite hardware costing $25 or more per device. Hubble brings connectivity under 50 cents per device, which changes the math for billions of pallets, shipping containers, water pumps, and farm equipment that were never worth connecting before. https://x.com/hubble_network/status/2102808178467762425/video/1
中文: RT @ycombinator:以1.6亿美元的估值向Alex、Ben和@hubble_network(YC W22)祝贺他们。 哈勃的卫星网络允许任何蓝牙设备仅通过软件更新即可直接连接到轨道。 蜂窝网络覆盖了地球约15%的陆地,而追踪任何超出此范围的设备意味着每台设备的卫星硬件成本约为25美元。哈勃将每台设备的连接性低于50美分,这改变了数十亿托盘、集装箱、水泵和农用设备的计算,这些设备此前从未值得连接。

RT @chrispisarski: +$2M ARR since this tweet people are keen to build their own workflows via Claude/Muse/Grokbot instead of buying more tools here are some learnings: 1) be part of the workflow - expansion into existing accounts has been a really big driver. some companies were using our API/MCP to source candidates via Claude, now they also find their clients and run their whole GTM on our data. we've been mapping out all these use cases and building a library they can just hand to their agents to figure out every way we/our data can help them 2) doubling down on AEO, we finally found what really works here and are doing a lot more of it constant experimentation and ideation drives most of it, more "demo-generating" activities instead of building dashboards / tracking the wrong things helped a ton we also started doing weekly syncs with other founders to learn/share any lessons (adding a few more ppl, reach out if you want to join our next sync!) 3) enterprises are becoming Claude-pilled we've started seeing a big inbound wave of large enterprise companies that want to build on our data inside Claude the adoption of Claude at these companies is exploding and so is the need to help them power all their workflows & replace some of the tools they've been buying. we're working with almost all of big tech and the top AI labs to help them do that

RT @PratapRanade: Can the US build a DJI? We tore down @DJIGlobal 's 2019 and 2023 Mini drones and priced every part. It's the first public cost breakdown of either. Here's what we learned: DJI earns SaaS-like margins on hardware: ~79% gross margin on a $139 parts BOM. For comparison, Apple makes 53% on the iPhone. We estimate US-sourced parts would cost 2-3x more, cutting margins to 37-58%. The result: US drone makers can't compete in consumer, and focus on premium enterprise and defense. Sovereign silicon: DJI is building its autonomy lead starting at the chip. In 2019, the drone's key chips were American and Dutch. By 2023, all four were DJI's own. Custom silicon jumped from 1% to 26% of the parts bill. Nobody else can buy these chips. One notable exception is the GPS chip, still from Swiss firm @ublox . Chinese alternatives exist, but DJI's flight software is built around u-blox. In modern hardware, lock-in lives in the software. "Cheap China" is an outdated perception. DJI paid more for lighter Chinese batteries, then spent the saved grams on sensors and compute. Their first priority is capability per gram, not cost. Better battery tech → lighter weight → more onboard autonomy. US-made @SkydioHQ has better autonomy, but needs a heavier drone and a $399 chip to get it. We lost the war on cost. The next battlefield is autonomy. DJI's real moat is speed. Shenzhen gets new circuit boards in hours, the US in weeks. "Move fast and break things" works for hardware in China, not America. Banning DJI doesn't close that gap. Faster iteration does. We ran this teardown with our FDEs and Atlas, our engineering agent platform. See our full analysis: https://www.arenaphysica.com/publications/dji-teardown Thanks to @JonathonPSine @AkhilIyer1, Maggie Gray and Shaun Donovan for reading drafts of this.
中文: RT @PratapRanade:美国能否建立一家大疆? 我们拆除了@DJIGlobal的2019年和2023年迷你无人机,并对每个部件进行了定价。这是两者首次公开成本细分。我们了解到的如下: DJI在硬件上获得类似SaaS的利润率:在139个零件BOM上毛利率约为79%。相比之下,苹果在iPhone上的年率为53%。我们估计,美国采购的零部件价格将比其多花费2至3倍,利润率将降至37至58%。 结果:美国无人机制造商无法在消费领域竞争,而专注于高端企业和国防领域。 主权硅:大疆正在从芯片开始建立自主领先优势。2019年,该无人机的关键芯片是美国和荷兰的。到2023年,这四人都是大疆自己的。 定制硅片占零部件账单的1%,跃升至26%。没人能买到这些芯片。 一个显著的例外是GPS芯片,该芯片仍来自瑞士公司@ublox。中国有其他选择,但大疆的飞行软件是围绕u-blox打造的。在现代硬件中,锁定功能在软件中。 廉价中国是一种过时的观念。大疆为更轻的中国电池支付了更多费用,随后将节省下来的数克资金用于传感器和计算。他们的首要任务是每克能力,而不是成本。 更好的电池技术 → 更轻的重量 → 更多的板载自主性。美国制造的 @SkydioHQ 具有更好的自主性,但需要更重的无人机和一块 399 美元的芯片才能获得。我们因成本而输掉了战争。下一个战场是自治。 大疆真正的护城河是速度。深圳数小时内新增电路板,美国在数周内。快速移动和突破事物对中国的硬件是有效的,而不是美国。 禁止大疆不会缩小这一差距。更快的迭代。我们使用我们的工程代理平台FDE和Atlas进行了这次拆解。 请参阅我们的完整分析: 感谢@JonathonPSine @AkhilIyer1,Maggie Gray 和 Shaun Donovan 阅读了此内容的草稿。

Today over half of the AmLaw 50 work with us, out of our offices in New York, Denver, Chicago, Houston, San Francisco and Toronto. The US is our largest market by revenue. The second is where the demand is coming from. More than 40% of our new customers are now in-house legal teams, including Air Canada, Salesforce and Palo Alto Networks. Two thank-yous, before we get back to work. To our customers, who backed a small company from Stockholm with a lot to prove, and who still tell us plainly when we get something wrong.

Make sure they can add, subtract, multiply, divide fractions. 🔸Lots of misinformed math education academics out there downplay the importance of foundational skills and tests. They are wrong. Note how her child developed test anxiety once she started doing poorly on tests b/c she had not acquired the knowledge to do well on the tests. 🔸Standardized test results probably do give a pretty accurate picture of how a school is performing in comparison to other schools. Testing matters, for so many reasons. 🔸High standards matter. Smart kids need to be challenged. Even her own daughter could see this. I appreciate that the journalist shared her story and I hope other parents learn from the mistake she made. https://www.nytimes.com/2026/09/20/magazine/ny-public-schools-black-students-segregation.html?unlocked_article_code=1.C1E.6nib.cLKLM5CRObVI&smid=url-share

RT @MaudMaron: I have some thoughts! Nikole Hannah-Jones interviewed me at the height of woke-1 to champion and virtue signal her “fight for every black child” and disparage and dismiss my fight for all NYC public school students to enjoy the rising tide that lifts all boats of academic rigor and meritocracy. She thought my support of the Specialized High School Admission Exam, the SHSAT, was racist. I thought her school politics were deeply misguided, and well, quite racist. Unlike Hannah-Jones I have nothing to walk back. I knew then what she has just figured out that her identitarian race-based grievance project would not fix anything. And in fact, it has hurt all public school students. Not just in NYC—her Magnum Opus of racial grievance, The 1619 Project, is taught in schools across the country and its reasoning is used to dismantle and stop the creation of the kind of high school that her daughter ultimately chose—the one that finally taught her algebra. NYC Public School students score lower on all academic metrics now than they did when her daughter started school—and we tax payers pay more for it. Enrollment continues to plummet while those in charge dumb down standards and hide results. So much of that is because any solution that challenged Hannah-Jones' race-baiting—endorsed by The Times and Democratic leaders alike—was verboten. Like Hannah-Jones I have a HS junior. My two older kids have graduated from NYCPS and are in college and my youngest is in NYCPS elementary school. I have qualms with parts of their education but also many success stories. Can you get a great education in NYCPS? Yes. But you have to fight for it. And insisting on the schools that grade math homework is a start. Knowing what your child is learning and mastering is a non-negotiable. Standardized tests help with that, but are a starting point only. Blaming phantom racists instead of understanding the role parents play was and is a lazy cop out. There is still an effort–alive and well right now-to dismantle great schools like NYC’s specialized high schools because they use standardized admissions tests. The effort still relies on the same failed logic that Hannah-Jones has peddled for years. She insisted that kids like her daughter who did not score high enough on a test to gain admission were the victims of racism. But she refused to acknowledge that poor Asian kids whose parents had NONE of the resources that her daughter enjoyed (or should have enjoyed) (English speaking parents, resources to pay for prep classes, knowledge of how the system works, etc) were not racist oppressors—but kids willing to work hard and apply their smarts with parents that prioritized subject mastery and took the time to make sure their kids were actually learning. Her daughter is right. She deserved much better. But it is not the cauldron of racist grievances that Hannah-Jones still cannot let go of that failed her daughter. It’s her daughter’s parents that did not figure out for NINE YEARS that their daughter was not learning enough. New York City Public Schools should be among the best in the world because we have so many incredibly talented, smart and hard-working students that could and should learn more by being challenged more–and that means sorting kids into cohorts where they can rise to the level of their abilities and willingness to work. In other words “screening”—the exact project Hannah-Jones fought against for so long and which she has now relied on to rescue her daughter’s education. You’re welcome Nikole. Your daughter’s chosen high school would not exist but for parents like me who fought so hard to keep screened schools.

RT @timurkuran: The United States has been leaping from one moral panic to the next: Black Lives Matter, MeToo, George Floyd, and now data centers plus the specter of AI-driven human extinction. In every case a genuine problem exists, but the threat is inflated out of all proportion and the costs of overreaction are overlooked. The resulting hysteria blocks clear thinking and closes off rational discussion. Consequently, individuals never notice that self-appointed experts are distorting the facts for their own gain. Companies with billions in AI stakes are perfectly capable of staging “rogue LLM” incidents to stampede politicians into regulation that keeps out competitors or simply reduces their own liability. Previous panics have already damaged trust in institutions and among ourselves. They have also intensified the political polarization that now endangers American democracy. We should resist the current panic rather than feed it. The costs of getting this one wrong dwarf those of the last several.
中文: RT @timurkuran:美国从一种道德恐慌跃升至下一个:黑人的命也是命、“梅多”、乔治·弗洛伊德,如今又是数据中心,以及人工智能驱动型人类灭绝的幽灵。在每种情况下,都存在真正的问题,但威胁被夸大得出所有比例,而过度反应的代价却被忽视了。由此产生的歇斯底里会阻碍清晰的思维,并导致理性讨论的结束。因此,个人从未注意到,自封的专家是在歪曲事实,以谋取自身利益。 拥有数十亿美元人工智能股份的公司完全有能力将“流氓传销”事件压入监管,从而排除竞争对手或仅仅减少自身责任。 先前的恐慌已经损害了对机构和我们自身之间的信任。他们还加剧了如今危及美国民主的政治两极分化。我们应该抵制当前的恐慌,而不是助长恐慌。弄错这个的代价比上几个要好。

RT @minilek: The University of California Board of Regents heard presentations on the SAT on Wednesday, specifically on whether it should be re-introduced into freshman admissions. I found the below excerpt from one presentation illuminating: "the statistical power of tests in predicting outcomes does not address whether UC ought to consider expected college success when deciding which students to admit, or to what extent we should" So, it's clear the debate is not centered on whether the SAT predicts college success -- the presenter says so himself. The heart of the debate is this: a UC education is a path to upward mobility, and the anti-SAT faction believe that this golden ticket should be given to those who would benefit from it the most, especially those who they feel have been harmed by society in the past as a form of restorative justice. If you hold this viewpoint, the increased failure rates in intro math classes and the surge in student unpreparedness are irrelevant.
中文: RT @minilek:加州大学董事会周三就SAT考试听取了专题介绍,特别介绍了是否应将其重新引入大一招生。 我找到了下面一个演示文稿的摘录,说明: 测试在预测结果方面的统计能力,并未涉及加州大学在决定录取哪些学生时,是否应考虑预期的大学学业成功与否,也不涉及我们该在多大程度上录取。 因此,很明显,这场争论并非围绕SAT是否预测大学成功展开——主持人自己说道。争论的核心是:加州大学教育是一条向上流动的道路,反SAT派系认为,这种金票应该送给那些最能从中受益的人,尤其是那些他们觉得过去曾因社会而受到伤害的人,这是一种恢复性正义。 如果你持有这种观点,介绍数学课程中失败率的提高以及学生准备不足的激增是无关紧要的。

RT @judegomila: I've attempted to map everything in oncology in a public website and open source repo for all. The site is trying to get all cancers, products, technologies, bottlenecks, people, startup opportunities with 1000+ ideas for upgrading the field. If you have a loved one with cancer and you are technical or can engineer, go take a look, file improvement requests or bugs or help with the open repo and make this the best open and free info resource for individuals, researchers and educational use. This should save people time, aid AI oncology projects and generate positive action. If you are not technical just complain in this thread about broken or annoying or things you want and I'll fix them live. Some of the interesting pages: Treatments: https://onco.cc/drugs A gallery of the molecules being used https://onco.cc/molecules/ And targets: https://onco.cc/targets/ The technologies in oncology: https://onco.cc/technologies/ 1100 ideas for helping oncology: https://onco.cc/ideas/ Bottlenecks on oncology: https://onco.cc/bottlenecks/ Open questions (LETS GO RESEARCH PEOPLE) https://onco.cc/open-questions/ Startup requests (LETS GO STARTUP PEOPLE) https://onco.cc/startup-requests/ Mechanics of cancer: https://onco.cc/mechanics Battlefronts: https://onco.cc/fronts/ Isotope supply: https://onco.cc/isotopes Key papers: https://onco.cc/key-papers Pipeline funnels: https://onco.cc/pipeline Cancer by type: https://onco.cc/cancers/ Institutional rankings: https://onco.cc/institutions/ The startups: https://onco.cc/startups/ Heros and heroines : https://onco.cc/heroes/ Key medical people: https://onco.cc/people/ Here is the project roadmap: https://onco.cc/roadmap/ Models and data sets: https://onco.cc/models/ There are other views as well, take a browse. Try making a PR if you have an upgrade to this on the repo here: https://github.com/judegomila/OnCo If you are biologically/medically minded and something is wrong, file a bug as well or say on the thread and we will get it fixed live. If this is a useful project star the repo and help get it calibrated. I've tried to add some other languages but I cannot speak them so tell me if that doesnt work well. I believe we will crack oncology and having total information dominance is key to the problem. Let the feedback flow!

RT @kane: I need you to understand how retarded @sfgov is: 5 years ago, the Board of Supervisors *unanimously* appointed a felony kidnapper to a City Commissioner role. Turns out this guy has also been going around raping. @sfgov currently has no way of removing him, so @sfbos is burning legislative sessions and taxes on making new laws so they can fire the rapist/kidnapper that they hired. The best part: @sfgov has hired ANOTHER rapist, Jon Jacobo, as a commissioner in the same time period.

RT @bchesky: Yesterday I was in Austin, TX to announce the Airbnb Housing Accelerator, a $250 million commitment to help get more homes built. Airbnb started because of a housing problem. My roommate and I couldn’t afford our San Francisco rent, so we rented out airbeds in our apartment. Today, housing is unaffordable for millions of people around the world. If you step back and ask why housing has become so expensive, the biggest problem is pretty simple: we don’t build enough of it. America is short more than five million homes, more than all the housing in New York City and Los Angeles combined. We build fewer homes today than we did in 1950, even though the population has doubled. Airbnb has been part of the housing debate, and we understand why communities have concerns. Dedicated Airbnb listings are a small share of the housing supply—about 0.5% here in Austin and 0.3% across the U.S. Restricting short-term rentals is an understandable response, but the evidence shows it doesn’t address the underlying problem. New York City effectively banned Airbnb, and rents have risen about 30% since then. Austin took a different approach and passed reforms that made it easier to build more housing. Rents there are down 18%. Every city is different, but Austin is a clear success story. We believe building more homes is essential to making housing more affordable. So we asked ourselves: what can Airbnb can do to help? We found a few places where we can. Today, around 750,000 homes in the U.S. are ready to break ground, but are stuck because they can’t get the final piece of financing. That’s where we can help. We’re doing four things: 1. Putting $250 million behind housing projects that unlock $5 billion in development. 2. Supporting local housing advocates working to modernize zoning, speed up permitting, simplify building codes and reduce unnecessary costs. 3. Creating a $5 million Housing Innovation Prize for technologies that can make homes faster and cheaper to build. 4. Launching the Airbnb City Index to make it easier to see which cities are building housing, becoming more affordable and adopting policies that work. Our first project is in Austin. We’re investing $6.4 million to help build 201 affordable apartments in St. John, a neighborhood where the land has sat empty for nearly 20 years. The community fought to turn this lot into affordable housing and won. But construction stalled for nearly five years because the developer was a few million dollars short. Airbnb came and played a small part to unlock this project. None of these Austin apartments will ever be on Airbnb. Short-term rentals aren’t permitted. We’re investing anyway, because the goal is simple: help build more housing. We’re starting in the U.S. because it’s the market we know best. I want to prove this works here before taking it further. But housing affordability is a global problem, and I hope we can eventually take what we learn here and apply it globally. This is new for us. We’ll get some things wrong. And $250 million won’t close a five-million-home gap on its own. I know there will be skepticism about this, and that's okay. Airbnb only works if communities trust us and feel good about our presence in them. We can’t ask people for that trust. We have to earn it. The best way to do that is to help solve problems in the communities where we operate. That’s what the Housing Accelerator is about. Brian

RT @rohanpaul_ai: Jensen Huang completely destroys Jacob Coxon’s (ex-Anthrpic employee) 10% extinction prediction. no data, no scientific grounding, no defensible 10%. "First of all, we shouldn’t [try to explain a 10% chance of extinction], because it’s made up. These are well-educated people. They’re called researchers. Obviously, they’re working in a lab, and so the confluence of these words—and then the prediction—is alarming and troubling. It shouldn’t be done. It’s irresponsible." ---- Full video on "All-In Podcast" YouTube channel (link in comment)

RT @GarrettLord: SEPT ’26: HUMANS STILL VERY MUCH HAVE JOBS. AI isn't even close to meeting the standard required of the most junior professionals in banking, advisory, and private equity today. ATLAS Finance agents must navigate complexity like a human does: "Johnny you just got staffed - check your email." Human: 100%. Best AI: 12%. Agents have access to data rooms, email, chat, calendars, docs, notes, Excel, etc. Our real finance professionals pushed the realism frontier further by building dozens of coworker and client personas that introduce ambiguity, (controlled) contradictions, and real-time updates that must be adjudicated to successfully complete the client-ready deliverable. We gave 11 frontier models 100 expert-level tasks that each take humans 15–30 hours. On Wall Street there's a saying, "If it's 95% right, it's 100% wrong." Autonomous knowledge work outside software still has a very long way to go.

RT @VirtualElena: greg brockman says “we’re now in the AGI era.” one of the most interesting things about this conversation with @bhorowitz and @eriktorenberg is how long he’s been thinking about when that would happen. at the beginning of the pod, @gdb recalls doing some math on compute with ilya around 2016/2017. following the trajectory of moore’s law, they thought agi might be about 15 years away. if you were willing to build enormous supercomputers and spend hundreds of billions of dollars, maybe you could get there in 10. the accelerated scenario they were envisioning a decade ago is roughly the one we’re living through now. the faster timeline depended on people deciding to build an enormous amount of infrastructure. greg describes the present moment as a lot of long-running forces coming together: “it kind of makes sense it’s happening now.” im the kind of person who resists the idea that it’s possible to predict the future, but if you were reading the right research papers 10 years ago, there were a lot of things you could extrapolate out and be roughly right about a decade later. brockman remembers openai discussing agents that could use a screen, keyboard, and mouse at an offsite in napa in 2015. he also points back to 2017/2018-era ideas for how humans might supervise systems that are smarter than they are. put differently, people were thinking about app-layer innovations like computer-use, and ai safety long before capabilities existed. greg now thinks astra is reasonably described as agi, while acknowledging that its abilities remain uneven. in a recent essay of his titled “the defenders window” he describes safety requirements during training and evaluation, and getting powerful defensive tools into the hands of organizations before comparable capabilities spread to attackers (there is now a $ 1bn fund for this, seeded by oai). a personal illustration of this is his own website. after the hugging face incident, greg asked an agent to check his simple blog and got back 13 security vuln findings. then it went into his cloudflare dashboard, changed settings, migrated the site, checked its work, and scheduled a follow-up to finish the email protections. there was still a bunch of ordinary preparation to do on the personal website of someone who had spent a decade thinking about agi. which is kind of funny. you can have a pretty good sense of when the technology/agi will arrive and still have an enormous amount of work to do to get the world ready for it. greg’s account brings those two timescales together: the decade spent building toward this moment, and the relatively shorter window to act on what is now possible.

RT @RonConway: After such a consequential week for AI, with the leading labs demonstrating real progress, today's news feels especially timely: @SVAngel is launching Project Blueprint, a comprehensive effort to forge consensus among industry leaders and lawmakers around durable solutions to the hardest AI policy challenges so that all Americans can benefit from AI's opportunities. And we've brought on @JayCarney to run it. https://svangel.com/blueprint We are encouraged by the reaction of Sam Altman, Dario Amodei and Demis Hassabis to the launch of Project Blueprint: Sam Altman, co-founder and CEO of OpenAI: "We have before us a technology of immense and still-unfolding wonder. I believe AI has the power to heal people, to discover cures and to deliver abundance on a scale the world has never known before. But we need a way for the world to build trust in the technology so that we can all get to share these benefits. National safety requirements for the most capable systems are a great first step, ideally building towards a global framework for advanced AI models. I’m glad Ron is bringing the people building AI and policymakers together to help move that work forward.” Dario Amodei, CEO and co-founder, Anthropic: "AI is advancing faster than our institutions can adapt, and the most important decisions about how it is developed and deployed will be made in the next few years. If those decisions are to serve the public, they can't rest with AI companies alone. Industry and policymakers need to work through them together, with an honest, shared understanding of what these systems can do. We're glad to support Project Blueprint's effort to make that possible."  Demis Hassabis, chairman and co-founder of Google DeepMind and the chief scientist of Alphabet: "We have long said that AI development needs to be both bold and responsible. We support bringing industry and lawmakers together around public policies that promote both innovation and safety."

RT @maxkolysh: we tell YC companies not to hire during the batch. founders often find that confusing - isn't hiring the ambitious thing to do to grow faster? basically there are two types of hiring. one is fine to do during the YC batch, the other might mess up your company. the type we don't recommend is traditional hiring. this is where you put up a job post, do some sourcing, ping people you know for referrals, and run people through an interview process. hopefully within three or four weeks you have an offer out. then it takes them another week or two to actually start the job, and at least a couple more weeks before they're onboarded. big problems with this approach: 1. it's slow. it's two months before you get any ROI, and that's optimistic. realistically more like three months. in YC, three months is the whole batch! 2. ...and all that assumes you actually hired somebody, that they're good, and that they became effective fast. you might spend a bunch of time and not make a hire at all! 3. it's a big time investment for you and will distract you from everything else you need to do at a critical point in time for your company. 4. and if it doesn't work out, you spend even more time and life-force managing them and firing them! here's the type of hire that's actually okay to make: somebody who you already know really well. why? you already know they're good and that you want to work with them. it derisks the entire process. you can talk to them the same day, give them a short technical interview and get them signed that week, and have them productive immediately. you're also way more likely to get a much stronger candidate this way (since your earliest hires will want to work for you not because of the company, but because of you!)

It will continue our commitment to open-source, giving the research community a shared target for progress that benefits all of humanity. Despite rapid model progress, humans still significantly outperform AI at open-ended invention. This is the meta-skill that unlocks progress across every field of technology. Advanced AI capable of scientific innovation will lead to tremendous new technology, knowledge, and understanding. This is a positive-sum future. We are deeply committed to advancing it. Open source is the foundation for that progress. The knowledge behind frontier AI, not just the technology itself, should be broadly distributed among researchers, academics, and organizations. Any coordinated effort by the AI industry to reduce openness or concentrate access to frontier AI would undermine that positive-sum future.

RT @AlecStapp: Fantastic piece from @Chris_arnade on what tolerating anti-social behavior does to our public spaces: "It’s a primary reason why we shy away from dense walkable spaces and instead move towards suburban sprawl. People in the U.S. don’t respect, trust, or want to be around other random citizens, out of fear and disgust. Japanese/European style urbanism—density, fantastic public transport, mixed-use zoning, that so many American tourists admire—can't happen here because there is a fine line between vibrant streets and squalid ones, and that line is public trust. The U.S. is on the wrong side of it. Simply put, nobody wants to be accosted by a stranger, no matter how infrequent, and until that risk is close to nil, people will continue edging towards isolated living. It is why we “can’t have nice things” because we have to construct our infrastructure to be asshole-proof, and so we don’t build anything or build with a fortress mentality, stripping our public spaces down to the austere and utilitarian, emptying them of anything that can be vandalized."
中文: RT @AlecStapp:@Chris_arnade 的精彩文章,关于容忍反社会行为对我们公共空间的行为: 这是我们避开密集步行空间,转而转向郊区扩张的主要原因。 美国民众不尊重、信任,也不想与其他随机公民在一起,因为他们感到恐惧和厌恶。 日本/欧洲风格的都市主义——人口密集、公共交通优良、多用途区域划区,许多美国游客都非常钦佩——在这里无法实现,因为热闹的街道与肮脏的街道之间有着一条细线,而这条线路是公众的信任。 美国站在了错误的一边。 简单来说,没有人愿意被陌生人搭讪,无论这种情况多么罕见,除非这种风险接近零,否则人们将继续走向孤立的生活。 这就是为什么我们“无法拥有美好的事物”,因为我们必须建设基础设施才能防腐,因此我们无法以堡垒心态建造或建造,将公共空间剥离至绝对且实用的地方,并将它们排空任何可能遭到破坏的东西。

RT @martin_casado: In 1988, the Morris worm took out 10% of the Internet including taking out key national security and research assets. In 1992 the Michelangelo virus was expected to cause a digital apocalypse 99' the FBI reported that the Melissa virus compromised more than 300 companies and over one million accounts disrupted 00' and 01' we saw ILOVEYOU and CodeRed causing billions in economic damage. Since the creation of the Internet we had a constant stream of vulnerabilities impacting critical infrastructure, nationally sensitive resources, and causing billions in economic damage. In contrast, It really is remarkable how relatively few security significant events we've seen with AI despite all the effort and money trying to will it into existence. And relative lack of security sophistication from those developing it.
中文: RT @martin_casado:1988年,莫里斯蠕虫公司占据了互联网10%的利润,包括获取关键的国家安全和科研资源。 1992年,米开朗基罗病毒预计将引发数字末日 美国联邦调查局报告称,梅丽莎病毒入侵了300多家公司,超过一百万个账户被入侵 00' 和 01' 我们看到 ILOVEYOU 和 CodeRed 造成了数十亿美元的经济损失。 自互联网建立以来,我们不断存在一系列漏洞,影响关键基础设施、国家敏感资源,并造成数十亿美元的经济损失。 相比之下,尽管人工智能竭尽全力并努力将人工智能融入其存在,但我们所看到的安全重大事件却相对较少,这确实令人瞩目。且开发者相对缺乏安全性。

Are agent swarms going to take over infrastructure en masse? And then, what are we actually doing about that?" "I don't want to hear about some guy who worked for Anthropic for 2 months. There's a coordinated effort to try to influence politicians to get a knee-jerk response out of them." "That's a smokescreen. You shouldn't be paying attention to that. We need to be paying attention to the actual things we can do to, for example, prevent agents swarms from taking over entire data centers. What's our shutdown strategy? How do we ensure provenance? Where is this agent actually located? What software can we build? What cybersecurity defenses can we build today?" "That's the level of discourse I think we need, and we just don't have that." "I don't really care about science fiction. I saw Terminator 2, too. We're not here to talk about that. We need to actually talk about what's really happening with the servers, what's actually happening with the agent swarms, and how do we actually prevent that?"

RT @DillonLoomis: This story is fascinating and is easily one of the most important things happening at the intersection of AI and politics right now. It's critical everyone understands the situation because this is just the beginning of the AI infowars and psyops Jacob Coxon, a relatively unknown AI researcher, gives the WSJ an exclusive story about his resignation from Anthropic and his concerns about AI Twenty minutes after the WSJ story drops, Jacob posts on X about how he's concerned that AI could kill us all in a few years. This post now has over 149M views. For reference, Ilya Sutskever (a very well known AI name) left OpenAI in 2024 and his announcement post has fewer than 6M views as of today Bear in mind, Jacob Coxon's X account had no prior posting activity public, but it is immediately reposted and boosted by numerous AI-doomer policy advocacy nonprofits funded by the same donor (Jaan Tallinn) who just happens to be one of the leading investors in Anthropic We find out Jacob Coxon, who worked at Anthropic for only a few weeks, worked for a left-wing political advocacy group in 2021 (Newspeak). This organization is a British NGO with ties to hacking democracy, Hillary Clinton, prison abolition and extinction rebellion Many major Democrat politicians are now using Jacob's X post to fear monger the public into voting to regulate AI. It just so happens Bernie Sanders has a bill already written to ban artificial superintelligence (ASI) and to create a new federal agency to protect the public from the dangers of AI. This bill was announced just one week ago on September 3rd It would also place a temporary pause on "advanced AI" until a new federal regulator exists and has issued safety rules and a model-review process Elon then points out how none of this feels organic, and Jacob decides to take a shot at him for firing some xAI researchers Meanwhile, we know Anthropic has publicly asked the government to audit and block frontier models and Anthropic has run a state-by-state campaign for rules that only large AI labs trigger, meaning the rules are structured around barriers only frontier labs can easily clear (limiting competition) There is extensive Anthropic personnel and financial overlap with the groups that wrote the Biden-era AI policies. It is well known information you can seek out if you want the detail This all seemingly comes back to regulatory capture and political motives. None of this feels natural. Jacob can say these are his real views all he wants, and they may be, but there is clearly far more to the story

There is a widely accepted consensus that AI will accelate human progress (see it start solving long standing math and science questions).

In 2025 it took us and GDM an enormous amount of compute to achieve IMO gold. For the 2026 IMO, anyone with a $20/month ChatGPT subscription could do it. Massively scaling test-time compute gives us a glimpse of the future. I believe that a year from now everyone will have an AI at their fingertips capable of solving problems of this caliber.

Obviously the pandemic played a part. - But this 2025 round has seen further falls even from the 2022 lows! Things haven't gone back to normal post-pandemic - they've got worse. Every generation thinks the generation below is less smart - but this time they might be right!

RT @levie: The AI jobs prediction so far is playing out the opposite of what many thought. The reason this is happening is because AI is bringing automation to areas that don’t have finite demand characteristics. AI allows companies to do far more than they could before, but agents still require human operators and oversight to generate value from them. And not only has AI not replaced many of the types of jobs that theoretically would have been most affected by AI - engineers or lawyers - but AI is also creating or growing entire categories of jobs across the economy. Cybersecurity, FDEs, agent operators, engineers in non-software domains, and tons of job categories are going to explode. It’s not clear if or when this trend will reverse because we keep discovering all new areas of demand that AI is going to open up.
中文: RT @levie:迄今为止,人工智能就业预测与许多人的看法截相反。 之所以发生这种情况,是因为人工智能正在将自动化引入那些没有有限需求特征的领域。人工智能使企业能够比以往做得更多,但代理机构仍需要求人工操作员和监管人员从中创造价值。 人工智能不仅没有取代许多理论上受人工智能影响最大的工作类型——工程师或律师——而且人工智能也在经济领域创造或扩大了整个就业类别。 网络安全、FDE、代理运营商、非软件领域的工程师以及大量工作类别将会激增。目前尚不清楚这一趋势是否会或何时会逆转,因为我们不断发现人工智能将开放的所有新需求领域。

RT @vivilinsv: Tremendous respect for @garrytan (with @garryslist ). He is known as the president and CEO of @ycombinator, co-founder of Initialized Capital and Posterous, and an early investor in companies including Coinbase and Instacart. By almost any Silicon Valley measure, his résumé is extraordinary. But what moved me most during this @a16z interview (link in comment) was his heart and and his sense of duty to his community. Garry described how, during COVID, San Francisco’s district attorney was, in his view, turning a blind eye to heinous crimes against Asian elders. At the same time, the school board was hostile toward Asian American children who simply wanted access to algebra in public middle school. He also recalled that mainstream Bay Area television—including the local ABC channel—would not cover anti-Chinese and anti-Asian crimes. “Our institutions failed us,” he said. But the Asian American community did not remain silent. Chinese families on San Francisco’s west side organized around access to algebra and the deaths of their elders. They went to farmers markets and community events, speaking to one another face-to-face, making sure their neighbors understood what was happening—and uniting to demand change. That is how a community finds its voice. Garry’s message was clear: when people like us stop paying attention, refuse to speak up and fail to hold both government and media accountable, things can become deeply distorted. Speaking out can carry personal and reputational costs. But, as he put it, this is part of our covenant with our fellow citizens: “If we don’t do it, who’s going to do it?” As a member of the Asian American community, I deeply respect Garry for using his voice, influence and resources to stand up for our elders, our children and the city he calls home. That is more than politics. It is courage, solidarity - and heart. ❤️
中文: RT @viviilinsv:对@garrytan(与@garryslist)的尊重。 他以@ycombinator的总裁兼首席执行官而闻名,是Initialized Capital和Posterous的联合创始人,也是包括Coinbase和Instacart在内的公司的早期投资者。 几乎任何硅谷指标都是他的简历非同寻常。但在这次@a16z采访中,最让我感动的是他内心的心和 以及他对社区的责任感。 加里描述了在感染COVID期间,旧金山地区检察官在他看来,对针对亚裔长辈的滔天罪行视而不见。与此同时,学会董事会对那些仅仅希望在公立初中学习获得代数的亚裔美国儿童持敌对态度。 他还回忆说,包括当地ABC频道在内的主流湾区电视台不会报道反华和反亚裔犯罪。 “我们的机构辜负了我们,”他说。 但亚裔美国人群体并没有保持沉默。旧金山西侧的中国家庭围绕获取代数和长辈死亡问题进行了组织。他们前往农贸市场和社区活动,面对面交谈,确保邻居们了解正在发生的事情,并联合起来要求改变。 一个社区就是这样找到自己的声音的。 加里的信息很明确:当像我们这样的人停止关注、拒绝发声,而且无法同时让政府和媒体承担责任时,事情就会变得严重扭曲。 说话可能带来个人和声誉方面的代价。但正如他所说,这是我们与同胞们的盟约的一部分: 如果我们不做,谁来做这件事? 作为亚裔美国社区成员,我深切尊重加里,感谢他利用他的声音、影响力和资源,为我们的长辈、我们的孩子以及他称之为家乡的城市挺身而生。 这不仅仅是政治。是勇气、团结,也是内心的。❤️

RT @AustinJustice: Flock’s new enemy is the "No Kings" protest organization. Groups funded by a Shanghai-based tycoon, including CodePink, have spent the past year fusing Flock opposition to their campaign against AI data centers. Just like the DSA, anti-ICE, and CAIR’s social media campaigns, it's working. An independent analysis shows that their campaign talking points are now repeated by conservative and libertarian accounts. The coalition against tech that cops have used since the 1980s started on the left but is now suddenly broad. But there is little doubt who's in the driver's seat, and who is being driven.

RT @CharlesFLehman: Massie's bill would deprive cops not only of fixed ALPRs like Flock, but of *mobile* ALPRs—cameras on cars that just serve to more reliably identify a vehicle. That would basically push cops back to the 20th century. No mobile ALPRs makes it harder to check hotlists and BOLOs. Harder to confirm if a suspicious car is stolen. British police have had mobile ALPRs since the 1980s. Americans since the 1990s. What are we doing here?
中文: RT @CharlesFLehman:Massie 的法案不仅会剥夺警察使用 Flock 等固定式 ALPR 的费用,还会剥夺其在汽车上的摄像头,这些摄像头不仅能更可靠地识别车辆。 这基本上会将警察推回到20世纪。 没有移动的ALPR会更难查看热门名单和BOLO。更难确认是否有可疑车辆被盗。 自20世纪80年代以来,英国警方一直使用移动性ALPR。自20世纪90年代以来的美国人。我们在这里做什么?

RT @rahul: Sure, here are the answers: 1. Y Combinator was our first investor in 2017. They've invested in over 5,600 companies. 2. Just one example of crime dropping because of Flock? Okay, here's a random one. Delano Police deployed 20 Flock cameras (eventually growing to 45) in 2023. In a year, the Chief stated that "because of the Flock cameras", the department saw a 56% reduction in crime (source: https://t.co/Z9EboxarW6) 2. If by "mass surveillance" you mean "unconstitutional/illegal surveillance", then I believe it becomes unconstitutional/illegal when it actually violates the fourth amendment. All courts that have heard ALPR cases have ultimately deemed that ALPR does not violate the fourth amendment. People on the internet may disagree but the courts have been clear. Here are a bunch of the cases I'm referencing (https://t.co/LwIHHwW7yN) 4. Flock clearly improves crime clearance rates. There have been multiple studies done on this + multiple agencies who have published their crime clearance improvement stats across things like homicide, robbery, auto theft, etc. Here's the most recent one from 3 weeks ago (https://t.co/GiXcGV9ih6) 5. I don't believe one exists, but you're more than welcome to create one. Error can be documented through agency audits and public records. Wrongful stops go to zero when an agency follows policy. Austin PD did a study in 2025 that showed that they had zero incorrect stops after 13,122 ALPR matches because they correctly verified each hit before pulling over the vehicles. This makes sense, since a simple ALPR alert by itself is not enough to detain someone. The good news is that this precision still greatly exceeds that of human beings playing the game of telephone, trying to find the suspect vehicle. 6. Concerns regarding privacy are reasonable. These concerns are settled by courts, and fully settled by community desires and configurations. Again, courts have ruled consistently re: ALPR and fourth amendment. Also, each community can go to their local city council and voice their opinions on how they would like their public safety strategy to be run. Some will choose more safety, others will choose less. It's up to them. 7. There is no reliable published Flock-only total for the past three years. Several recent alleged abuses were surfaced through audit reviews and led to arrests. Bad cops have been routinely caught after Flock's auditing assistance went live and showed who they all were. That was the point. I wish every police database did this, since the other databases are routinely abused with no auditing guardrails. We're hoping legislation forces all databases to have Flock's level of auditing. 8. There are many safeguards in place regarding Flock misuse. Case numbers are required for each search, search reasons are required, every search is logged and audit assistance automatically flags anomalies, potential misuse actors are proactively locked out. This is why you see so many news stories about police misuse of Flock vs other police databases, because Flock is the only one catching people who misuse their tech. Cops who run plates for friends via DMV, run their dauther's boyfriend's criminal history, etc, rarely get caught. And also, the same process that holds a police officer accountable for misusing their firearm, their lights and sirens, etc, still exists for Flock misuse as well. 9. Several layers prevent Flock from repurposing customer data. Customers own and control their data, per their contracts. The contracts restrict Flock's use. Data retention schedules automatically dictate deletion of the data, based on agency chosen configurations. Agencies control their data sharing. All searches are logged. 10. Giving police a 24/7 GPS tracker for every citizen is an exaggerated example designed to make people think it's the same thing as stationary cameras at select intersections taking pictures of vehicles (not people). Per the courts who have opined, doing the former is a clear violation of the fourth amendment, but the latter is not.

RT @credistick: Overheard at YC's 2012 Demo Day: "I really liked 2008. It was a great year. People weren't trying to make money. They were trying to do something." PG is right that @ycombinator has a surprising legacy of critics, going back as far as 2007. The best batch was always the earliest batch. There's a simple reason for this: observability. The latest batch is inherently a list of nobodies, pursuing odd looking ideas. First, we get to know the loudest and most controversial companies. Only much later are companies recognised for actual progress and meaningful successes. So, the lazy read is that batch quality is constantly falling and it's only ever the older batches which were actually any good. In defiance of this, the program has posted consistent, impressive results. And it has done so by supporting companies across the spectrum, like @boomsupersonic, @oklo, @AstroForge, @opentrons, @initofertility and @noxmetals. Most importantly, YC produces a credential which is more earned than awarded. The YC stamp allows other investors to herd behind promising companies, rather than chasing Stanford grads, Meta alums, or whatever other "legible" signals the market dictates. It's easy to imagine that without YC, venture capital would be even more crushingly consensus-driven.
中文: RT @credistick:在YC的2012年演示日中被无意中听到: 我很喜欢2008年。这是美好的一年。人们并不是想赚钱。他们试图做点什么。 PG 没错,@ycombinator 的批评者对此有着令人意外的影响,远可追溯到2007年。最好的批次总是最早的一批。 原因很简单:观察性。 最新一批本质上是一系列无名小卒,追求着奇特的创意。 首先,我们了解最响亮且最具争议的公司。不久之后,企业才因实际进展和取得实质性成功而获得认可。 因此,人们腵料是,批量质量持续下降,而且只有旧批次才能真正达到不错。 无视这一点,该节目取得了持续而令人印象深刻的成果。并且通过支持全谱公司(如@boomsupersonic、@oklo、@AstroForge、@opentrons、@initofertility和@noxmetals)来做到这一点。 最重要的是,YC 生成的证书比获得的证书更多。 YC邮票允许其他投资者支持有前景的公司,而不是追逐斯坦福大学毕业生、Meta校友或其他市场所暗示的“可见”信号。 很容易想象,如果没有YC,风险投资将更加以共识为导向。

RT @fchollet: GPT-6 Astra represents a step-function change in model capability for interactive reasoning problems. It scores 66% on ARC-AGI-3 using our standard harness, and nearly 100% with a continuous conversation harness and custom compaction, at a cost of roughly $360 per game. In fact, the continuous harness version significantly outperforms our human baseline in action efficiency across almost all levels. When we examined the reasoning chains to understand how the model operates, we found it performing highly efficient, on-the-fly symbolic world modeling for each game and level. It goes as far as developing its own shorthand DSL to represent in-game situations -- essentially a game-specific algebraic notation. Overall, Astra exhibits symbolic modeling behaviors we had previously only seen with sophisticated harnesses -- so harness capabilities are increasingly shifting into the model itself. We see Astra as a major breakthrough in model intelligence. Read our post on Astra and what these results mean: https://arcprize.org/blog/astra

OmniRoute → MODELS 1,200+ models across hundreds of providers behind one endpoint. Claude for reasoning, Gemini for context, DeepSeek for cheaper tasks, Grok when freshness matters. the agent does not need to be locked to one model. https://github.com/diegosouzapw/OmniRoute 3.

RT @femke_plantinga: There are 4 kinds of company brains on the market in 2026. Only 3 of them are actually company brains (#4 is the one most teams have) Every harness makes different trade-offs. But you don't need to compare 20 vendors to see the shape of it. You just need two questions: → Who runs the upkeep - you, or a vendor? → Is the brain its own layer, or a feature of something else? Plot those two axes and the whole market falls into four families: 𝟭. 𝗗𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗮𝗻𝘆 𝗯𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘀 → Slite, Hyper, Glean Its own layer, vendor maintained. Connects to your existing sources, handles the architecture, serves context as a graph or instant answers via UI/MCP. 𝟮. 𝗦𝗲𝗹𝗳-𝗵𝗼𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗽𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗻𝘀 → GBrain, Supermemory, your own CLAUDE.md + markdown repo Same idea, own layer, except the upkeep is yours. GBrain, Karpathy's setup, the repos everyone forked in April. Total control, and you are now the maintenance team. 𝟯. 𝗠𝗲𝗺𝗼𝗿𝘆 𝗦𝗗𝗞𝘀 → Mem0, Letta, Zep Building blocks to give your product memory. The memory stays tied to your users, sessions and workflows, it never becomes shared context for the company. Different job, often mistaken for this one. 𝟰. 𝗕𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗹𝗲𝗱 𝗶𝗻𝗰𝘂𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 → Notion, Slack, SharePoint, Atlassian, Claude A brain-shaped layer inside a suite you already pay for. Which makes it the easiest thing on this list to switch on. But bundled brains are built to make that suite smarter. Not to be an independent brain across your stack. So the moment your context lives in Slack and Drive and Jira and someone's head, you don't have a company brain. You have a very good search bar inside one tool. We surveyed 149 teams and interviewed 10+ builders and users to map all of it into a free interactive ebook 👇 Get it here: https://slite.com/ebooks/company-brain?utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=organic-social&utm_campaign=company-brain-ebook&utm_content=femke-honeypot

RT @PratapRanade: Today, we’re excited to unveil Heaviside-1, @arenaphysica's second generation foundation model for electromagnetism. 5 months since the release of Heaviside-0, Heaviside-1 is a crucial milestone on our quest to build EM superintelligence: a foundation model that understands EM across the spectrum, from RF through photonics, capable of designing the next generation of electronics. Major updates: - Heaviside-1 is >10x the size of Heaviside-0 (roughly the size of GPT-2), trained on 250k unique designs with >500B unique EM field samples. - It runs 10^5 x faster than commercial solvers, with accuracy <1 dB. - Heaviside-1 natively encodes 3D structures, their material properties, and excitation patterns as input. It predicts full EM fields at arbitrary locations in space, not just downstream quantities like S-parameters. - Most importantly, our bet on fields lets Heaviside generalize OOD proving that it’s learning real EM physics: Heaviside-1 generalizes outside of distribution very well, leaping from 0.99 dB to 0.53 dB S-parameter error. Try it out in Atlas Fields Studio in beta today (link in replies). I personally had a lot of fun seeing how EM fields twist and curl around different circuits. I wish I had this when I was learning EM in college. I hope you enjoy it as much as we did.
中文: RT @PratapRanade:今天,我们期待推出Heaviside-1,这是@arenaphysica的第二代电磁学基础模型。自Heaviside-0发布5个月以来,Heaviside-1 是我们致力于构建EM超智能领域的关键里程碑:一种能够从射频到光子学等光谱领域理解EM的基础模型,能够设计下一代电子产品。 重大更新: - Heaviside-1 的尺寸约为 Heaviside-0 的 10 倍(大致相当于 GPT-2 的大小),采用 25k 个独特设计,并采用 > 500B 的独特 EM 现场样品进行训练。 - 其运行速度比商业解电器快10^5 x,精度<1 dB。 - Heaviside-1 将 3D 结构、其材料特性和激发模式作为输入进行编码。 它预测在任意空间位置处,而不仅仅是像S参数那样的下游量,将出现完整的电磁场。 - 最重要的是,我们对字段的赌注使Heaviside能够对OOD进行通用化,以证明其正在学习真正的EM物理:Heaviside-1在分布之外进行非常大范围的推广,从0.99 dB跃升至0.53 dB S-参数误差。 立即在 Atlas Fields Studio 测试版中试用(在回复中链接)。我个人在看到EM田在不同电路周围如何扭曲和卷曲时,玩得很开心。我希望我在大学学习EM时能拥有这个。希望你和我们一样享受它。

RT @PFFeeley: .@garrytan’s Startup School talk is worth the time if you underwrite AI in public companies. He is not arguing that one person firms are on the way. He is describing the operating model that is already producing the numbers. Most valuation work still treats headcount as the scarce input. That is the wrong constraint. The scarce input is a process written down tightly enough that an agent can run it every day, and a simple router that assigns work to the right process. You do not need the whole warehouse. You need one shelf that compounds. One person plus agents is already an organization. You can run a real company before you incorporate, hire a cofounder, or write a deck. Tan’s examples are useful because they are specific. @mukundjha and @madhavjha at @emergentlabs hit $15 million annualized at 15 people, went from public launch to nine figures in eight months, and now sit above $120 million at a $1.5 billion valuation. @retellai reached about $60 million with about 40 people. That revenue per employee is outside the old software, oil, and railroad ranges. These are not outliers. In the current @ycombinator batch, founders finish in a day what used to take a year. If your process still assumes the old clock, someone else is already on the new one. Software is also cheap enough to build the exact tool you need for an audience of one. The old advice was scratch your own itch and hope a market appears. The better version is scratch it because the cost is close to zero. Some of those tools become companies when other people ask for them. The binding constraint is memory. Without pruning, the system is a junk drawer with excellent search. It will surface stale facts with total confidence. A bad skill file will run a bad process forever. Every fact needs a source. New information has to be checked against old information. Someone has to delete what no longer belongs. Treat that as infrastructure and the system compounds. Treat it as a dump and you get an agent that sounds certain and is wrong in ways you cannot audit.

RT @SFNoPropB: San Francisco should not open a bank it cannot explain and cannot pay for. That is what Supervisor Alan Wong told voters this morning. Proposition B puts the city in the banking business while the budget is already underwater. Banking is a business of managing risk. When a private bank guesses wrong, shareholders eat the loss. When a public bank guesses wrong, taxpayers do. Wong asked the only questions that matter. Where does the capital come from? What happens if the loans fail? Why create a new city institution when community lenders and credit unions already exist? The measure does not answer those questions. It writes the bank into the Charter first and leaves the bill for later. Do not hand City Hall a new financial power it has not funded and has not earned. Vote No on Proposition B.

RT @contextconor: “openai should pay its taxes” is a coherent position “openai should pay its taxes, then personally build our housing and run our schools because city hall didn’t” is not but that’s the argument being by the sf gate in this article the funniest part is that if openai actually did it, the backlash would be immediate build 1000 apartments in the mission? gentrification start a school? billionaires shouldn’t control education fund a hospital? keep tech out of healthcare we don’t even have to speculate. we’ve run this experiment already zuck gave $100m to newark schools and got attacked for billionaire influence over public education he and priscilla chan gave $75m to sf general, the largest private gift in its history. a few years later, people were protesting to get his name off the hospital ray dalio put $100m toward helping connecticut’s poorest students. the public-private partnership collapsed amid fights over transparency and private influence so what exactly is the acceptable option here? pay taxes? apparently not enough directly solve the problem? unacceptable corporate influence give the government even more money? that’s just taxes again if sf takes hundreds of millions from openai and still can’t deliver housing or education, the obvious question is what happened to the hundreds of millions not why openai hasn’t started running schools and building apartments itself

RT @gokulr: A Markdown File is an Employee @GarryTan (Garry Tan), President & CEO of Y Combinator, interviewed by @illscience (Anish Acharya) (The @a16z Show) Summary: AI is not merely making employees faster. Garry Tan argues it lets founders encode every repeatable business process, turn organizational memory into software, and operate with context once trapped inside layers of management. The result is a new founder mode: tiny teams, hundreds of reusable skills, and companies that improve every time an agent makes a mistake. Incumbents may struggle to reorganize around that model. Startups have no excuse not to. 1. Trust The Territory, Not The Map. Tan left web programming in 2003 because mobile looked like the prestigious next wave, then turned down an early Palantir role to chase a Microsoft promotion. He estimates the second choice cost billions. Both mistakes came from working backward from status instead of looking at the territory: what he knew, who the exceptional people were, and where capability was obviously missing. 2. Earnestness Is Courage. When the crowd says the web is dead or an idea is uncool, maturity is not reflexive agreement. It is trusting direct experience strongly enough to keep building. Tan’s advice is “don’t LARP”: stop performing the role of a founder for investors and pursue the thing you understand before the map catches up. 3. Find The Intellectual Edge. The strongest founder obsessions do not run out after one conversation. You may reach the edge of what people have built, but you cannot find the edge of the questions. That depth is a useful filter: enduring companies often begin as unusually specific interests that look strange until the founder reveals how much territory remains. 4. Founders Need A Truth Network. YC’s deepest value is not merely capital or introductions. It is a group where a founder can say the best customer left, the best engineer quit, or a co-founder lost hope. At most startup events, one founder says they are “killing it” and the other returns the performance. Real support requires somewhere the performance can stop. 5. Become 400× Yourself. Vibe coding and agentic software mean a single founder can now carry the output of a former department. Tan says founders should be more ambitious because the game has changed. Copying a SaaS success from the last cycle underuses today’s leverage; the right question is what becomes possible when one capable person can multiply themselves hundreds of times. 6. SaaS Is A Wedge, Not A Moat. Tan is skeptical that pure per-seat SaaS remains durable over the next decade. It can still be an entry point, but lasting value must compound through proprietary data, network effects, workflow ownership, or a learning loop. If the product only rents access to a feature, an agent may absorb the feature before the company builds defensibility. 7. Build Trivial Things. The fastest way to develop AI intuition is to use every model on low-stakes projects. The output does not need to matter. The project is a chassis for learning where the technology works, where it breaks, and what changed since last week. Tan argues agency and taste grow through these repetitions, not through reading another forecast. 8. A Markdown File Is An Employee. Perform a business process well once, capture the interaction and judgment as a skill file, and put it on a schedule. The first version will be expensive and imperfect. But every future failure becomes a bug fix that lives forever, and the process can run as often as needed without forgetting how the last edge case was resolved. 9. Automate The Bottleneck. Tan’s engineering loop progressively encoded product thinking, implementation, testing, and browser-based QA. Each time his own attention became the limiting step, he taught the agent to handle that step too. Building an agentic company is less about one giant system than repeatedly finding the current bottleneck and turning it into software or a skill. 10. Memory Makes Founder Mode Scale. Organizations slow when the business becomes too large to fit in one person’s head. Agents can preserve meeting traces, retrieve ground truth, map dependencies, and surface conflicts without relying on opinions filtered through two management layers. That gives a founder something close to organizational clairvoyance: the ability to see the work rather than receive a summary of it. 11. Provenance Is The Control Plane. Hundreds of skill files create their own failure mode: stale or conflicting instructions. Tan’s answer is provenance, recency, and scheduled maintenance. The company needs to know where a fact came from, which instruction wins, and when the system last checked it. Agentic scale still needs governance; it simply makes governance explicit and executable. 12. Every Startup Must Reorganize. Tan imagines agents tracking dependencies, resolving routine conflicts, and carrying the coordination load that historically produced middle management. A company such as Microsoft may struggle to rebuild itself around that model. A startup can start there. His verdict is blunt: a startup can organize this way, and every startup must.

RT @theojaffee: People often ask why today's tech wealth doesn't go towards more public works, like libraries, universities, and museums during the late 1800s. As far as I can tell the answer is that they would literally not be allowed to be built. In 2014, George Lucas, a long-time Bay Area resident who built Lucasfilm in the Bay, wanted to build a museum in the Presidio as a gift to the people of San Francisco, to be personally funded to the tune of ~$700 million. The Presidio Trust rejected it. He then tried to build it in his wife's hometown of Chicago, but local nonprofit Friends of the Parks sued and held the project up for two years, long enough for Lucas to give up on the city. The Lucas Museum of Narrative Art will finally open in Los Angeles next month after more than a decade of planning, eight years of construction, and over $1 billion personally spent by Lucas. Meanwhile, San Francisco has built no major museum projects since the 2016 expansion of SFMOMA, and no new libraries since the North Beach Branch in 2014. Public works, like so many other things, are bottlenecked not by donor will or available funding but by vetocracy

RT @AlmostMedia: I am sick of bickering over who benefits from American startups. I’m probably close to a centrist figure in this debate. I have invested in flyover state white boys & I am a libertarian with right leaning sympathies (save for big gov cultural statists). We ALL benefit from the extreme successes that come from breakthroughs in the “non correlated returns” category of investing. Americans benefit first because typically they are our companies. There is no second choice to America as a market in almost every industry (save crypto which I blame entirely on Biden for his idiotic choke point nonsense and we should fix this no matter what the big banks say) It’s impossible to capture all the surplus from that benefit. That’s where I’m annoyed at the left most. They ignore this simple fact. But equally I’m irked by the right saying we can only invest in Americans & hire Americans. That’s stupidity. There aren’t that many of us for one thing. Though I wish we had more Americans. Have some babies. I would if I could. Ask yourself if you want to be the richest most powerful nation on earth? Yes? Me too! So we must continue to produce surpluses and have a positive sum outlook that presumes new markets create new opportunities. We have gone to space so don’t give me guff about the carry capacity of the planet. Mine the moon. Go to Mars. Market economies without gummed up regulatory capture & stupid cartel monopolies (looking at you American Medical Association) simply do better. Some of the biggest successes we’ve had as a nation have come from receiving & nurturing the talents other countries abuse with their cartels, oligarchs & monopolies. Shoot we actively stole other countries best talent in the wake of some wars. I think this is a good thing. We fought communism for decades & won over the world in that effort. We should continue to do so. Why? Because that means more tax revenue, more jobs, new market opportunities, and broader horizons for our children. And yes those are benefits for Americans first. Where do you think the taxes go? If a few other allies and nationalities choose to join us in that effort we should rejoice. Our great experiment has been ongoing for 250 years. I’d like it to continue for another 250 years. But it won’t if we act like shitty zero sum defeatists. I wrote this in one go so excuse typos and blather. If you act like an asshole in response I’ll block hou. Play nice. Let’s win!

RT @PFFeeley: Here's what the AI job collapse narrative gets wrong about the productivity boom. @pmarca told @lennysan the last 50 years ran at half the pace of the prior era and a third the pace of a century ago. Almost no real technological progress in the economy. Remarkably little job turnover as a result. Even if AI triples productivity growth, a massive deal, job turnover only returns to the 1870 to 1930 rate. People living through that period did not experience collapse. They experienced a world awash with opportunity. New careers. New products. New services. A huge part of the modern world was invented and scaled in that window. Tripling the pace of change does not produce mass unemployment. It produces faster economic growth and faster job growth. Some task-level and job-level substitution will happen. It will be swamped by the macro effects of growth and innovation. Hiring blooms follow.The panic assumes dynamism destroys work.  History treated that same dynamism as the engine of new work.

RT @stephenbalaban: 100% Agree @GavinSBaker. Now, I'm going to debunk every single piece of mis-information about data centers that I've ever seen online: > DISINFORMATION: Data centers use a lot of water. FACT: Most AI data centers are closed loop dry cooler design that barely consume any water at all. A 20MW 10,000 GPU cluster needs 20,000 gallons to charge and doesn't use material water after that. That's less than 1/4 of the amount of water used to raise the amount of beef the average American consumes in a year. That means one of the largest data centers in the world, at 2GW, consumes less water than 20 people's annual beef consumption or three American's total water footprint (@ ~600k gallons per year for the average American). > DISINFORMATION: Data centers increase electricity prices. FACT: Data centers bring down a community's average electricity bill because they spur development of new power generation. Most data centers bring their own power generation, pay fees to the utility to build more power plants, or bring their own power storage to actually reduce the cost of energy in their community. Northern Virginia has some of the most data centers per capita and has low power costs. See research from the Electric Power Research Institute https://www.marketplace.org/story/2026/07/10/data-centers-lowered-electric-bills-in-some-places-for-now and https://t.co/KK04Pl8998. >DISINFORMATION: Data centers don't create jobs FACT: Data centers create hundreds of jobs at construction and a high number of exceptionally high paying jobs (many over $120k/year) for their ongoing operation and maintenance. No, they're not similar to an automotive plant in terms of the jobs / MW but they are phenomenal additions to an industrial park and community. > DISINFORMATION: Data centers are constantly super noisy FACT: Data centers are one of the quietest industrial buildings in the world. Drive by a data center in your city and roll down your window. They are very quiet. In fact, a metal mill is FAR louder than a data center---up to 10,000,000 more sound energy is produced by a mill and perceptually a mill can be 128x louder than a data center. > DISINFORMATION: Data centers emit noise pollution from diesel engines running all the time. FACT: Emergency generator sets are almost never turned on unless the grid connection goes out. This would be less than 0.5% of the time! > DISINFORMATION: Data centers are surveillance systems FACT: Data centers actually just host computers owned by private companies that are used to make phone calls, access the internet, run ChatGPT, Claude, X, Instagram, Facebook, Google, play multiplayer video games, and every thing you ever do online. That's it. > DISINFORMATION: Data centers make water dirty FACT: AOC held up a bottle of dirty water and said this is what data centers do. Completely false, well water disruption is a rare side effect of EVERY construction site in the history of humanity. This is not at all unique to data centers and is a complete red herring. > DISINFORMATION: Data centers get massive tax breaks and drain tax dollars from towns FACT: Data centers pay massive amounts of tax and often times huge % of an annual budget of a county or town! It's an absolute bonanza for the towns that are lucky enough to welcome a data center. New schools, new roads, new services are all paid for. Even if there is a sales tax rebate we're still talking tens of millions of new tax revenue. In 2022, Virginia’s data centers collectively generated $1 billion in local tax revenue and $640 million in state tax revenue! That was 2022. https://netchoice.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/Kentucky-Statewide-Data-Center-Report_8.11.26.pdf Feel free to reply here if you have any other question you'd like answered about data centers happy to provide actual facts.

RT @NinaDSchick: We are turning energy into non-biological Intelligence. Data centers are literally 'factories' that produce Intelligence. Electricity is the essential input. The electricity powers computation, and the computation produces and processes the tokens through which machine Intelligence operates. As these systems become more capable and autonomous, they consume vastly more tokens, driving ever greater demand for computation and electricity. OpenRouter estimates that an agentic request already consumes around 15 times as many tokens as a human-led request on its platform. This fundamentally changes the nature of electricity demand as our demand for useful Intelligence has no obvious ceiling. If more computation can produce more valuable work, we will keep finding more work for machines to do - and so, we will need ever more electricity. We got future energy demand so wrong because we did not foresee that non-biological Intelligence could be produced industrially; and that we would need an entirely new energy paradigm to support that.
中文: RT @NinaDSchick:我们正在将能量转化为非生物智能。 数据中心实际上是产生智能的“工厂”。电力是必需的输入。电力驱动计算,计算产生并处理机器智能运行的令牌。 随着这些系统变得更加强大且自主,它们消耗的代币却更加丰富,导致计算和电力需求不断增加。OpenRouter 估计,一个代理请求在其平台上的代币消耗量约为人类主导请求的 15 倍。 这从根本上改变了电力需求的本质,因为我们对有用情报的需求没有明显的上限。如果更多的计算能够产生更有价值的工作,我们将不断为机器寻找更多的工作——因此,我们将需要更多的电力。 我们未来的能源需求如此错误,是因为我们没有预见到非生物智能可以由工业生产;而我们需要一种全新的能源模式来支持这一模式。

RT @kwindla: Introducing PhoneLLM, an open model for voice agents. GPT 5.6 Terra performance on typical voice agent tasks at 1/3 the latency and 1/18 the cost. For voice agents, we need models that are both very low latency and very good at tool calling and instruction following. There's a trade-off here, and we often have to compromise on either latency or capability when building voice agents. With PhoneLLM (and the training and data stack that made this model possible) we're fixing this problem. For the last couple of years, most of the effort in frontier model development has gone towards leveraging test-time compute. Which is awesome! Models of all shapes and sizes are available that perform really, really well ... if you have "thinking" turned on for your model. But if you need your agent to respond at voice conversation speed, you can't use thinking models. PhoneLLM is a full-weights fine-tune of NVIDIA Nemotron Nano 30B. We trained on a wide range of real-world telephone and customer support use cases. The training focused on taking the excellent Nano 30B base capabilities and teaching the model to do typical voice agent tasks with thinking disabled. The results are really good: accurate tool calling and concise, on-topic responses in long conversations. And fast: TTFAT measured server-side is <100ms if you run PhoneLLM on a lightly loaded B200. :-) But seriously, when we characterize model latency, we do it with full, end-to-end, batched request simulations using real Pipecat voice agent pipelines. You can serve more than 80 concurrent agents on a single B200 with P95 end-to-end TTFAT <600ms. Including network overhead. That's an LLM cost-per-minute around $0.0025. (1/4 of a cent.) At a latency lower than any third-party API offers today. More details about this model, including weights on @huggingface, how to spin it up with one click on Modal, and a starter project repo you can clone, are in the thread ...
中文: RT @kwindla:推出语音代理的开放模式 PhoneLLM。 GPT 5.6 Terra 在典型的语音代理任务中,延迟时间为 1/3,且成本为 1/18。 对于语音代理,我们需要既低延迟又擅长工具调用和指令跟踪的模型。 这里存在一种权衡,在构建语音代理时,我们常常不得不在延迟或能力方面做出妥协。通过PhoneLLM(以及使该模型成为可能的训练和数据栈),我们正在解决这个问题。 过去几年里,前沿模型开发的大部分工作都转向了利用测试时间计算。太棒了!各种形状和尺寸的型号都提供,性能非常好......如果你对自己的型号有“思考”的调整。 但如果你需要你的经纪人以语音对话的速度做出回应,就无法使用思维模型。 PhoneLLM 是 NVIDIA Nemotron Nano 30B 的全重量调。我们基于多种现实世界的电话和客户支持用例进行了培训。培训的重点是具备出色的Nano 30B基础能力,并教导模型在思维障碍的情况下完成典型的语音代理任务。 结果非常好:在长时间的对话中,工具调用准确,主题回答简洁。 速度:如果在加载速度轻微的 B200 上运行 PhoneLLM,TTFAT 测量的服务器端为 <100ms。 :-) 但严肃地说,当我们描述模型延迟时,会使用真正的Pipecat语音代理管道进行完整的端到端批量请求模拟。 单个B200上可使用P95端对端TTFAT <600ms,为80多个并发代理提供服务。包括网络开销。按每分钟0.0025美元(1/4美分)的LLM价格。延迟低于当前任何第三方API的提供。 有关此模型的更多详细信息,包括@huggingface 上的权重、如何单键旋转,以及可克隆的入门项目。

An analysis of 47,000 PRs found a distinct vocabulary cluster dominated by words like “load-bearing,” “quietly,” “latent,” and “genuine" that grew from 1% of the corpus in January to 45% today. The project samples 100 PRs a day, filters out bot and agent accounts, and groups descriptions into eight different writing styles based on word choice. For those of us familiar with their work, this cluster certainly sounds like the "load-bearing" vocab of LLMs. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49461817

And there are exactly two answers and confusing them causes every agent failure I've ever seen."⁣ ⁣ "Some computation belongs in latent space. Taste, judgment, reading what a human actually wants from a vague request, that lives in the model and you steer it with a markdown file. And then some computation belongs in deterministic space, the arithmetic, the SQL query... Ask an agent or human to seat five people around a table. That's easy. Do it in latent space."⁣ ⁣ Ask it to make custom schedules for 6,000 people in an arena like we just did for you, and your latent space agent needs to write some code to keep track of it. The model fails where we fail." — @garrytan

RT @pitdesi: San Francisco did more than defunding police, they did the SF thing… created more bureaucracy to “reimagine” policing ...and then put a convicted felon at the helm of the Sheriff’s oversight board, and then made the board extremely hard to fire. In 2020, Chesa Boudin, Dean Preston and gang pushed for a new Sheriff’s Oversight Board to “give voice to those impacted,” provide “accountability,” and join the “national movement for justice reform.” They put convicted felon William Palmer as president, for his “lived experience.” He had served 31 years in prison. Since joining the board, Palmer has been accused of violence by multiple women, including a rape charge. Now a 26 y/o woman says he gave her meth and pressured her into sex while she stayed at his apartment, where she overdosed on fentanyl. Palmer says he was acting as her “life coach.” Everyone agrees Palmer should not be running this board, but because of how SF designed it, removing him is extraordinarily difficult. Commissioners like Palmer are protected by a process requiring formal misconduct charges, an Ethics Commission proceeding and a supermajority of the Board of Supervisors. We should have passed Prop D in 2024, which would have removed this entire commission from the Charter along with many others, but it would have given more power to the mayor and I think people were reluctant, given Mayor Breed's administration. We have a chance to fix this a little bit: vote YES on A and F this November. Prop A is the commission-cleanup measure: it cuts the number of Charter commissions, eliminates or merges some, and moves others out of the Charter so they can be changed or abolished without another citywide election. Prop F fixes the problem illustrated by Palmer: most commissioners would serve at the pleasure of whoever appointed them, so the Board could simply remove its own appointees without this ridiculous misconduct process.

But it is a proof of concept that fully personalized medicine, built around one patient's own biology, is viable in ways it simply wasn't a few years ago. I have lived a version of the future of cancer care that I think is worth aspiring to more broadly. Many of the tools that made this future possible for me are getting better, faster, cheaper, and more accessible every year. I think what we need next is the infrastructure to deploy these tools, and the community willing to build this infrastructure, one patient at a time. I want to help that future arrive faster. I wrote an article in The Cancer Letter https://cancerletter.com/guest-editorial/20260814_2/ for the physicians and researchers closest to the patients who could benefit most from this approach, who also believe in this future. If you are working towards building the systems and practices that will make personalized medicine operationally real, we want to collaborate with you too.

Moderna and Merck sequence each patient’s tumor and compare it with their healthy DNA. AI then helps identify which of the tumor’s mutations are most likely to trigger an immune response. From those targets, Moderna produces an individual mRNA treatment encoding up to 34 neoantigens, The earlier Phase 2 trial followed patients with surgically removed high-risk melanoma for five years: - 68.8% remained cancer-free, compared with 49.1% on Keytruda alone - 49% lower risk of recurrence or death - 59% lower risk of distant metastasis or death Now the much larger Phase 3 trial involving 1,137 patients has also succeeded.

Today, as the director of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy, he helps shape America’s national strategy on AI, science, and emerging technology. At Startup School 2026, he sat down with YC's @lutherlowe, to talk about how Washington makes technology policy, why the White House supports open source AI, and why little tech needs a seat at the table. 02:38 — From Tech to the White House 04:39 — How Technology Policy Actually Gets Made 05:51 — The White House on Open Source AI 08:28 — How Washington Sees AI Differently 09:53 — Regulating a Technology That Changes Every Six Months 11:37 — Which AI Risks Are Overblown? 13:03 — Giving Little Tech a Seat at the Table 17:31 — Regulation Without Creating Incumbent Moats 18:01 — Born Free vs. Born in Captivity Technologies 20:46 — What Working in the White House Is Actually Like 25:56 — A New Golden Age of American Science 31:32 — Quantum, Congress, IP, and What Comes Next 37:54 — Why Technologists Should Consider Public Service

RT @VirtualElena: in my mid-20's, a time when about half of my friends hated their jobs (a very normal phenomenon if you're in your mid-20s), i noticed a group of people my age who looked extremely happy and actualized at work. and all of these people somehow seemed to work at stripe. i'll call out @tamarawinter and @orbuch specifically as some of the first people who made me realize that it was possible to be 25 years old and do *singular* work every day, and not just whatever garden-variety boilerplate the company demands. this podcast with @gaybrick and @DavidGeorge83 helps explain why this was, and still is, the case. will says stripe increasingly is a platform for founders internally, just as it's always been a platform for founders externally. he wants each employee to feel like an “auteur”: an engineer, product thinker, and creative person with enough context and authority to make something real. we're now seeing a new generation of this pattern, with stripe's support of stuff like tempo (a team that might have one of the highest concentrations of founder-mindsetted people im aware of? cc @gakonst @dwr @varunsrin @liamihorne etc) the embrace of teams like privy and bridge, and other incubated initiatives like minions. stripe is trying to make employees more founder-like while preserving a shared standard of quality (one of my favorite details on this point: stripe creates simulated customer accounts so teams can experience realistic UIs for disputes and refunds before exposing products to real users). this is something that's actually very tough to do well, so it's very cool to hear will talk about it on this pod.

RT @saigurrapu18: Today, we’re announcing our $5.3M seed round, led by CIV. There is a rare window right now to redefine how some of the world’s most legacy software gets rebuilt across banks, airlines, governments, and large enterprises. For decades, mainframe modernization has been a massive human undertaking: multi-year programs, tens of millions of dollars, and large teams reconstructing, rebuilding, and verifying systems that nobody fully understands anymore. We started Hypercubic with a simple thesis: mainframe modernization should become a repeatable, software-driven process rather than a bespoke human undertaking. Over the past year, we’ve made several breakthroughs in an attempt to build the most capable mainframe modernization platform one that can understand, rebuild, and verify critical systems at high velocity. We’re already seeing with customers how dramatically parts of the modernization lifecycle can be compressed. The industry is not used to the speed we now know is possible. Today, this work remains fundamentally a human labor problem. We think it can become a computational problem instead. @aayush_naik and I are building a small, high-caliber team to go after this. If this problem excites you, please reach out, we’re hiring exceptional people across the team!
中文: RT @saigurrapu18:今天,我们宣布以CIV为首轮530万美元的种子轮融资。 目前,有一个难得的窗口期可以重新定义全球最具传统性的软件是如何在银行、航空公司、政府和大型企业中重建的。 几十年来,大型机现代化一直是一项庞大的人类事业:多年计划、数千万美元,以及庞大的团队,重建、重建和验证那些无人完全理解的系统。 我们从一个简单的论点开始了Hypercubic:大型机现代化应成为一种可重复的、以软件为导向的过程,而非定制的人类事业。 过去一年,我们取得了多项突破,试图构建一个能够快速理解、重建和验证关键系统的最有能力的大型机现代化平台。 我们已经向客户看到了现代化生命周期中能够大幅压缩部分的程度。行业并不习惯我们现在知道的可能速度。 如今,这项工作从根本上仍然是一个人类劳工问题。我们认为它反而会成为一个计算问题。 @aayush_naik 和我正在组建一支规模较小、高素质的团队来关注此地。如果这个问题让你感到兴奋,请联系我们,我们团队中招聘非常出色的人!

RT @hanghuang_: We didn't get into YC until we stopped trying to get in. After the 4th rejection for InsForge, Tony and I decided to generationally lock in and focus completely on building product and acquiring users. We looked at how the best devtool companies (Supabase, Resend, WorkOS) got developers to care. We realized we should run our own Launch Week! After 30 days of insane heads down building, we did it. InsForge Launch Week 1 went completely viral. We hit #1 on Product Hunt, #1 on GitHub Trending, 1M+ views on X and LinkedIn. We generated enough motion that YC couldn’t ignore us. They ended up reaching out to us instead of us applying. That's what got us into YC.

RT @credealjunkie: Sometimes I wonder why random people with no connection to SF hate it so much. Other times I know exactly why. Imagine a guy pledging to invest $100 million into a forgotten retail strip - in the neighborhood he grew up in - through a privately-funded nonprofit and being accused of a “hostile takeover” by arguably the most influential local politician. Now imagine the guy wants to do it in literally any city besides San Francisco. They’d throw him a parade - and rightly so. You hear a lot that San Francisco hasn’t lived up to its potential because of anti-growth politics. I disagree. It’s a miracle San Francisco isn’t worse off given the entrenched anti-growth politics of the past 50 years, with periodic respites like the present moment.

RT @WilliamBryk: Last week, Exa took over SF's Pioneer Building, previously home to Stripe, OpenAI, and most recently xAI. Elon assembled the Colossus cluster here (his mattress was still lying there during our tour). Alec Radford trained GPT-3 here. The Collison brothers built the web's financial backbone here. They were all infra companies: Stripe -> Financial infra OpenAI -> Intelligence infra xAI -> Compute infra Each entered Pioneer as a small startup with enormous ambitions and left as a foundational layer for the world. Exa -> Information infra We entered Pioneer as web search for agents, but by the time we leave we'll have organized all the world's data into a foundational information layer. This will require things like deploying satellites, new misinformation detection algorithms, and embedding retrieval on an outrageous scale. Whatever is necessary to keep billions of people and trillions of AIs as informed as possible. A trusted information ecosystem is necessary to safely navigate this chaotic AI era, an era that was set in motion by our previous occupants.
