@maxkolysh maybe keeping track of longer lived attributes like mood has some value but they are mostly determined by our socializing, sleep, nutrition and physical activity

[Refael Shamir @RefaelShamir]

@maxkolysh Self reporting of emotions? are we in the 1970s? This was challenged and mostly abandoned.. also, not sure why keeping track of short lived emotional experiences (mere seconds) is used as an indicator of one's overall health..

[Refael Shamir @RefaelShamir]

@dividendology What were the mentioning of the world wide web prior to the dot-com crash? Don't think it's indicative of anything, and I'm sure if I'll fixate on another term to find as a commonality within investor relations docs

[Refael Shamir @RefaelShamir]

@GeomarTradeCode @sflorimm Underrated comment..

[Refael Shamir @RefaelShamir]

@sflorimm Most of them are there for the vibes/herd behavior.. in a few months in SF wasn't able to get a straight answer from so called builders, what it is they're actually building

[Refael Shamir @RefaelShamir]

@WolfgangRichtEU The problem is and always has been greed, which is an integral part of human nature, and the capitalistic economy in general. This is why even if you'll seize 99% of his net worth, little to no actions will be taken to improve any of the aforementioned topics

[Refael Shamir @RefaelShamir]

@crypto_birb What does the '08 financial crash has to do with anything? Prices are undeniably high right now, but this is not how it'll play out. Too much passive/dumb money flows into the market (e.g., pensions)

[Refael Shamir @RefaelShamir]

@MarioNawfal Run an experimental discussion with your favorite LLM on the use of pension funds to support this.. should give governments enough runway to come up with a more permanent solution

Didn't stock market investing start in the Netherlands some 400 years ago?

[Crypto Tice @CryptoTice_]

BREAKING:

The Netherlands just told its citizens to go to hell.

They just approved a 36% tax on unrealized gains.

You didn't sell anything.
You didn't make a single euro in cash.
Your portfolio went up on paper.

The government sends you a bill anyway.

67,000 citizens petitioned against it.
Parliament approved it anyway.

No cash to pay the tax? Not their problem.
Asset crashes after you paid? Not their problem.

This is not tax policy.
This is the government treating your paper gains as their income.

Before you've made a single euro.

The most talented Dutch investors are already leaving.
The most ambitious builders are already gone.

Capital goes where it is treated best.
And right now that is anywhere but the Netherlands.

2028 is coming. Plan accordingly.

Companies are cancelling AI subscriptions because employees aren’t mindful of cost or efficiency

@pmddomingos OpenAI becoming the new Microsoft.. Guess worse things can happen

[Refael Shamir @RefaelShamir]

@manishamishra24 The question that should be on everyone's mind is what government is gonna do to compensate for the loss of taxable income

[Refael Shamir @RefaelShamir]

@Cointelegraph He lost software to Claude, desperate attempt to poach back. Can be a smart deal for the startups that'll take advantage of this to reach profitability faster, but to most its useless

[Refael Shamir @RefaelShamir]

@kenshii_ai If you go back some 10 years, a different tech startup called Uber had the same problem. The service was heavily subsidized to try and change the status quo. Nothing new here

[Refael Shamir @RefaelShamir]

@TonyTonywoji @XieJackie Not really, at least not until Google came up with the Transformer architecture it was pretty much a non viable piece of technology

[Refael Shamir @RefaelShamir]

@antibearthesis This is viewed in isolation to an individual that has disposable income to invest and earn some appreciation. Wrong if the same individual will remain without a job if a company's stock is not performing well and labor costs are the first to be scrutinized

[Refael Shamir @RefaelShamir]

@pmddomingos And will continue to get worse now that "new data" is created with GenAI models

[Refael Shamir @RefaelShamir]

@CirclEdgeInc @pmddomingos Because it's plausible that the competition will attempt to invest in research and innovation to surpass Google's stance. While Google is supposedly halting momentarily, or worst case scenario reached a plateu within their current approaches

Mapping connections between research topics and publications is a time-consuming task.

NextNet is an AI app that can help you with it. It lets you run visual searches for topics related to life sciences.

It's free and very easy to use:

@shl The best startup ideas are the ones who were marketed to become one.
