In Miami for the next few weeks! Any recommendations for an AI company checking out the tech scene here? Events, meetups, people to talk to, etc.
Sounds like we're back in the Webvan era.
Condo life: upstairs neighbor (a self-proclaimed High Priestess) 'watered her plants' by dumping a bucket of water onto our balcony - while we were sitting there. We asked what she was doing, and weeks later she said we traumatized her… and also somehow killed her dog
I've been an AWS customer for 10 years. Seriously reconsidering that now. The costs have gone up considerably, and I ran into an AWS bug today that took our system offline. AWS support has yet to respond. With no response, we scrambled to come up with a workaround ourselves.
I call it, "I used ChatGPT for this". Because my parents don't know what Claude is.

Asking Google what's the hottest time of the year in California: "The hottest month of the year in August is July" 🤔
Trump’s new tax bill may blow up the deficit, but it also repeals Section 174 - the tax change that quietly fueled tech layoffs in recent years. A lot of people don't realize this. Big relief for startups and R&D: dev work can once again be fully expensed in the year it’s done.
Been testing Deep Research in ChatGPT and Claude. Both surface tons of sources and spit out confident-sounding quotes. Only problem... A bunch of the quotes don’t actually exist at the source. Anyone else seeing hallucinated citations?
Building business intelligence tools and discovering there's literally a business for everything. Recent customer queries: - Specialized bong cleaning service - Ukulele + paddleboard lessons The long tail of commerce is wild. Coming soon...
Oakland is worse. Building permit office got hacked and fell 5 months behind. I filled out my app with staff help at their computer - still rejected. Then got stuck in HOA vs city signoff limbo. Eventually gave up. Unreal story of bureaucracy at its finest.

After years of recommending Retool to clients, tried their local setup recently. 9 services, endless crashes, zero helpful docs. What happened to "just works"? Switched to @theappsmith. Sometimes the best feature is actually working. 🔥
No one talks about the real reason driving the ~500k tech layoffs. Section 174 in the 2017 tax cuts turned engineer salaries from an instant tax deduction into a 5yr write off, causing billions in tax bills. It even incentivizes offshoring R&D, which has a 15yr write off! 1/4
A friend just misspelled their company’s name in an email - after 4 years there. Startups: maybe pick a name your own team can spell.
Ironic timing with the Musk / Trump blow up. My HOA WhatsApp group has also blown up today... Owners are taking sides, pointing fingers, and blasting each other. I will never own another condo with an HOA.

What's happening now is basically what played out in the 1st term. Musk got frustrated after a period of time and left Trump's advisory circle.

Went to grab a chair for my wife from a downsizing SF tech company. Walked into a room full of $1K Steelcase chairs. Tried to help find homes for them. A week later: “Sorry, we just threw them all out.” ~50 chairs. All gone. There has to be a better system.
How you can spot the good mescal. No fancy label, straight from a small batch family operation in Oaxaca.
I was in a traffic jam the other day completely surrounded by self-driving cars. I felt silly for actually driving.
