I’m hiring an Editorial Intern to work on our industry leading media and research team. If you are very opinionated, love technology, obsessed with getting to the truth, and want to build a career reporting on cutting edge tech trends - I’d love to hear from you!
Potlucks are an S-tier party format. - Fun buffet-style random selection - Immediate conversation starters - People cater to their own needs - Reduce host overhead/clean-up
The new meta glasses look awesome but the AI assistant was/is garbage. More like Siri than ChatGPT. How is this possible?
Isn’t calling someone a poseur one of the most poser things someone could do?
I think Perplexity’s early antagonism of Google on X might go down as a fatal error
As a founder I see this all the time, the busiest people are inevitably doing 90% cosplay work. E.g Notion, docs no one reads, perfecting slides, consensus building etc

Took my kid to the rodeo this weekend. Tons of young families, everyone’s friendly and polite, super well organised, great food, real sense of community there. Urge everyone to rediscover these ‘American pastimes’ - there’s a reason they were so popular!

Is there a Kathie Wood razor like there is for Inverse Kramer?
There is nothing more cringe in business than the mock sales call interview. It’s painful for everyone involved.
Taking credit for a stock pop where exclusive insiders captured a ton of value from retail investors and employees by creating artificial scarcity and pump is a wild move for FTC 😂😂😂

Everyone I interact with uses an LLM for work. There is huge gap between people who have and have not figured out good prompting and context. Theres more signal in workplace acuity here than almost anything else.
Lots of talk about LLM context/memory being the moat. Little talk about how easy it is to get a perfect LLM-ready download for all relevant use cases.
