There really is only one brand worth building: Integrity. The rest is just veneer.
This t-shirt is from 1982. The lessons are for 2025. Guide Harry through a treacherous jungle maze. He must leap over obstacles and dodge deadly dangers, while grabbing all the treasure he can reach! I’m wearing Pitfall!, one of the earliest iconic video games. Was made by…
Civic center has zombie like views but also art like this, and most importantly cheap office space
Why is contrarian thinking so rare in venture? On podcasts people say they are contrarian but they’re all into the same angel deals from YC or the Angel List ecosystem. Or will wait 5 years for a deal to get obvious to believe it’s great. Or will take partners at brand name…
I hate the secondary market in tech (for folks other than VCs). Why? I think the buyers are generally predatory and trading on way more info than the seller has. Just learned of one situation where secondary buyers flooded the zone at a company knowing the non-public news that…

We need better evals for Voice AI. WER seems to be the agreed upon standard, but it's a poor proxy for understanding. Tiny errors in transcription (low WER) can have a huge impact on meaning. The metric that matters: does the model respond appropriately to what was said?
Can endorse working with Jack, and can't think of a more fun subject. Come peer into the robot's mind!
We're launching an "AI psychiatry" team as part of interpretability efforts at Anthropic! We'll be researching phenomena like model personas, motivations, and situational awareness, and how they lead to spooky/unhinged behaviors. We're hiring - join us! job-boards.greenhouse.io/anthropic/jobs…
OK, so someone helped to debug NVLink/SHARP and here is the reality of things. - I was wrong to suggest that not all NVLink systems include SHARP - they do, - but you must use all 8 GPUs in a single collective for it to work. if you use say 4 gpus (e.g., TP=4) you will get the…

1/ 🚨 Major supply chain breach just hit the JavaScript ecosystem. Attackers hijacked popular npm packages — including is (~3M downloads/week) — to silently ship remote access malware into dev environments. Here’s what happened, and how Socket caught it 🧵
In the Bay Area is harder to find true friends than in the middle of nowhere The difference is the “Star fucker” mental bug that affects so many. Too much effort goes into being “seen” with the “cool” people and social proofing. And sometimes it gets to the head of those who…
Difficult times have a way of showing who your true friends really are.
