Feels familiar: Duke head coach announces retirement during summer but coaches one more season. Duke makes Final Four then has season/career ended by UNC team coached by first year head coach. Congrats to @uncwomenssoccer which will play for program’s 22nd NCAA title Monday.

We have lived in an effectively post-scarcity society since 1885. Most political conflict since then has revolved around what to do with all the surplus we generated. The modern "services-oriented" economy is the solution we arrived at: give everyone fake jobs to LARP scarcity.

Let’s talk about one of the absolute dumbest things in tech, and I’m reminded of this bc of the NFL draft coming up and how every year nfl teams do the same dumb thing people do in tech: over analyze things that don’t matter

State Sen. Nathan Dahm (R-OK) has penned several bills loosening gun restrictions, including the nation’s first anti-red flag law. He thinks these bills protect the Second Amendment – and that they make us safer. We think it's probably one or the other. Watch it on @AppleTVPlus.

Flash forward to 2022. Over 5 years, we’ve migrated almost every api used by the Twitter app into a unified graphql interface. Getting api changes into production used to be measured in weeks, now it's measured in hours.

It's difficult to get perspective when you're in the middle of things, but every so often I'm struck again by a simple fact: one party attempted a coup, to hold on to power despite losing an election, and it is going to do them, to a first approximation, ZERO electoral damage.

GPT-3 plays IPython: GPT-3 issues interactive Python commands to answer questions about a real, external CSV file with unknown layout. Generated commands (in green) are pasted into IPython and output is pasted back into the prompt for the model to interpret.

whoa. new evidence unsealed for project "Jedi Blue" - the allegations of market rigging between Facebook and Google. This email was previously redacted in Facebook's antitrust suit in California and appears to show much of FB's leadership received a pre-read of the deal. /1

So this stuff is really hard, so how did a small startup build a superior product in a field that has been the avenue of trillion-dollar multinationals with insane access to research, $$, and data? Open-source! And we tell you exactly how we did it: blog.replit.com/ai
