The ability sit/think/write deeply with a topic before reaching for an LLM will be a superpower
Yes. Writing is not a second thing that happens after thinking. The act of writing is an act of thinking. Writing *is* thinking. Students, academics, and anyone else who outsources their writing to LLMs will find their screens full of words and their minds emptied of thought.
This is exactly why community-trained models from teams like @NousResearch are so important. The OSS community shouldn't rely on the generosity of FAANG! It won't last.
welp.
So many cities in the US need their own Daniel Lurie to bring back common sense (looking at you LA, NYC, Seattle, Portland)
If Daniel Lurie has million number of fans i am one of them . if Daniel Lurie has ten fans i am one of them. if Daniel Lurie have only one fan and that is me . if Daniel Lurie has no fans, that means i am no more on the earth .
The reality is that the US needs to cut expenses (austerity), raise revenues (taxes), and increase growth (deregulation) to avoid a fiscal disaster. Until then, BTC is the answer.
After spending time in Washington, DC discussing the budget deficit with senior people on both sides of the aisle, it’s clear to me that we are unlikely to change the debt trajectory we’re on and avoid the painful consequences. While virtually everyone agrees on the need to…

doing deep research with an LLM while flying at 30k feet over the atlantic is one of those 'oh shit I'm living in the future' moments
the struggle is real
I like em dashes, and I hate that some people now take them as evidence of text being AI generated.
Prediction markets remind me a lot of what crypto felt like a decade ago: a nascent asset class on a path to trillions. There’s no better team than Kalshi to scale prediction markets and reshape how people think about everything from elections to economic markets to sports.
I’m excited to announce our $185M Series C valuing Kalshi at $2B. The round was led by Paradigm with participation from Sequoia, Multicoin, Peng Zhao, Neo, and Bond Capital. People choose to work at Kalshi not because of the money we've raised, but because of our ambition:…

Stablecoins working at scale significantly accelerates crypto as the future of the financial system. All financial services will need to be (re)built for this ecosystem. This is a once in a generation platform shift. The major pillars of the future of finance are up for grabs.
