Better weather today… and also epic to share a box with the Hypercars 😍

[Marc Perel @MarcPerel]

Twenty years of dedication to one company rings a bell…

Incredible numbers here, but also hilarious to see the comments around disruption for the clients who likely are just so happy to have working WordPress sites 🤣

Pacing the frontier

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang resigns amid spy, affair scandals. After reports of Huang’s two extramarital affairs with an alleged spy and an Nvidia executive, he’s out, and Nvidia CFO Colette Kress is in https://t.co/IFh8kr0oUO

Been fun wiring up more connections between Delta and @sim_grid.

@kerem Just start the whole project over at this point

This looks cool. But why is there a reluctance in the tech world to use Discord for company chat? It works perfectly well - and it's 1000x cheaper than Slack. I don't get it.

[Kevin Rose @kevinrose]

Want your own Slack for $0? I open-sourced Ember. It deploys to @Cloudflare’s free tier in about a minute, works with Slack-compatible payloads, and includes an AI assistant and media attachments.

Every time

The only repeated redirecting prompt I typically type or dictate from here is "could this be simpler?". Yields improvements every time. Seems like it should be part of the model system prompt by now.

Amazing interview. Amazing driver
Amazing Person ����

I just watched the podcast with David Perel and it's a great story, and reality check, how getting into motorsports without financial backing is challenging

I really recommend it to everyone

Speed is UX

[Nikita Bier @nikitabier]

I'm crying:

We kicked off the X.​com rewrite this spring and it was a massive undertaking. The old web stack from 2006 was one of the last things holding back growth & engineering velocity.

With a new Android app, a refreshed iOS app, and a completely rebuilt web stack, X has finally arrived to the promised land of product development:

The only constraint now is what the team can dream up.

Setup IQ has been a breakthrough product for @coachdavesetups. Can't wait to release it for iRacing soon as well.

[Coach Dave Academy @coachdavesetups]

No front, no rotation, no lap time.

Then Setup IQ got to work. 👇

[David Perel @davidperel]

@TeamThunderHawk Not sure! Been lucky to have lost count.

@NobleF1

[Vincent Bruins 🧡 @VincentJBruins]

Remember that Michael Andretti was rejected by FOM due to concerns regarding competitiveness and financial values.

Now their drivers are P23 and P24 in a 22-driver World Championship, and their debut season isn't even over yet and they're looking to sell. I was hyped for Cadillac coming to Formula One, but it's been a major disappointment so far.

I actually thought they weren't looking too bad at the start of the season, being a completely new team and everything, but all the trouble Aston Martin is going through just made them look better than they actually are, I think. The upgrades have done nothing to improve the Cadillac cars.

[Coach Dave Academy @coachdavesetups]

Next time someone says it’s just a game, send them this.

@LeMansUltimate vs. the real Laguna Seca.

STACKED grid, happy to be part of it. Testing starts tomorrow!
