I 100% agree with this (and remember Bob from my time at Facebook, too!). Picking the right problem matters, but I also think there's an underlying quest for status that leads to a…

My two cents here is that if you're trying to growth hack yourself, you need to be on a platform that's also growth hacking. Building an audience anywhere is genuinely hard. Algori…

I think ACM should give everything away for free. US taxpayers pay for a lot of research and the previous administration required that government funded research be published and m…

Completely agree. The worst sort of manager is the one who wants to stay "high level" and proposes things that either aren't possible or are vastly harder than their idea to "just …

Author here. People are speculating about when the first solo founder will build a billion dollar business. I think it ties back to Coase's "The Nature of the Firm" and the questio…

First, I wonder about the value of the study about endoscopies. Comparing number of adenomas found before and after potential "de-skilling" with AI assumes the rate of adenomas is …

I couldn't even get the video to play. Nonetheless I'm sort of meta excited by this product. It reminds me of the apocryphal "customers want a faster horse" thing associated with H…

Articles like this are exactly why I doubt that SWE jobs are going away. The SWE job of 2026 doesn't look like one from 2020, let alone 1990 so why would anyone believe the false d…

It's nice to see an explanation of how they think you should use Claude for a host of different job functions / aspects of building a business, but the tone makes it seem like foun…

I'm in the same boat. I've done a lot of work and hobby engineering projects and haven't run of tokens since moving to Claude max. I also haven't needed to let anything run over ni…

I'm going to give people the benefit of the doubt here. It reminds me of the Google search phenomenon others have mentioned, which culminated in the joke website "let me google tha…

Another problem with perception of AI tools, for coding and other things, is that people often adopt a one-size-fits-all view. If Claude/Codex whatever can fix a bug in my tiny hob…

I'm sure things could be better and maybe we've gotten lucky or perhaps being part of the AWS startup program bumps you to the front of the queue but we've had two recent issues --…
