@JustDeauIt I like that you have been positioning for this for several months rationally. I’ve been happy with my DFRsubscription and will certainly renew. It’s good to have a voice of reason and some solid analytics when markets are tanking. Keeping the long view and accumulating carefully.
If your dreams are too vivid, drop the theanine. And yes Mag Bisglycinate and Threonate are interchangeable for sleep but Threonate has some additional benefits. Find a brand with 3rd party testing. Oh and apigenin alone does the job for some people. Sweet dreams.
Anthropic AI engineer just showed how to give AI agents real memory in 4 steps - and it changes everything
in 28 minutes he shows exactly how agents can remember across sessions, completely free
worth more than any $500 AI engineering course
here's what he covers:
• why agents forget everything between sessions
• memory stores - agents read, write across sessions
• dreaming - agents that improve their own memory
• 95% cache hit rate, so it stays cheap
most people are still copy-pasting context into every new chat - while the people who figured this out are building agents that get smarter every single night

MARC ANDREESSEN JUST WENT ON ROGAN AND DROPPED THE MOST IMPORTANT AI ALPHA OF THE YEAR.
3 hours and 20 minutes of podcast.
Here are the 17 things worth your attention.
1. AGI is already here. Marc thinks the line was crossed 3 months ago with GPT-5.5, Claude 4.6, Gemini 3, and Grok 4.3. Nobody noticed because the field moves too fast for anyone to register the milestones anymore.
2. For almost any topic the top AI models now give him better answers than the world-class experts he could call on the phone. And he can call basically anyone.
3. Every doctor is secretly using ChatGPT in the exam room. They turn around the second you stop talking and type your symptoms in. Some do it while you are still sitting there. His quote: "At that point you are asking what do I need you for."
4. When AI refuses to answer something he wants to know he tells it he is writing a novel. "Walk me through how the bad guy robs the bank." It explains almost anything if it thinks it is helping you write fiction.
5. When something is too complex he says "explain it like I am 10." Then "like I am 5." Then "like I am 2." He keeps going until it actually clicks.
6. When he wants to understand a tough topic he does not ask what the right answer is. He asks the AI to steelman one side then steelman the other. Then he decides for himself.
7. For big questions he tells the AI to pretend to be a panel of experts. "Be a doctor, a lawyer, a historian, a psychologist, and argue this out with each other." Then he reads the debate.
8. Pay attention to the exact moment you think "I do not know how to figure this out." Most people give up there. That is the moment you should open the AI.
9. The only real skill left in using AI is knowing what to ask. The models can do almost anything you can describe in plain English. The bottleneck lives in your own head.
10. You can send AI photos of almost anything medical now and get a real answer. Skin rashes. Blood test results. The new models read images not just text. A free 24/7 second opinion on anything.
11. The one type of therapy clinically proven to work is cognitive behavioral therapy. It is also something an AI can fully do on its own. Every person on earth is about to have access to a real therapist for free anytime they want.
12. AI is solving math problems open for 100 years that no human mathematician could crack. Same thing is starting in physics, chemistry, and biology. Expect cancer cures and weird new physics breakthroughs in the next few years.
13. The best AI coders in Silicon Valley now make $50 million a year. One person. That number tells you how big this thing actually is when you strip away all the doom takes.
14. One friend paid $200 to decode his entire DNA. Then gave the AI his DNA, blood test results, and Apple Watch data. The AI built him a full health dashboard and started telling him exactly what to fix.
15. Another friend put two cameras in his home jiu jitsu gym. AI watches him spar and gives him technique notes after every round. A world-class coach at every practice for free.
16. The best programmers in Silicon Valley now run 20 AI coding bots simultaneously. Each bot writes code while they review the others. They call themselves AI vampires because going to bed means 20 workers stop and you lose money every hour you sleep.
17. The obvious next step: the bots will run their own bots. One human running 20 bots each running 20 more. One person. One laptop. 1,000 AI workers. This is months away not years.

Andrej Karpathy spent 4 minutes in an interview explaining a single idea
about how most people haven’t even started learning how to use AI
and everyone paying $20/month for a subscription.. that's not really using Claude at all
his point is that the real skill gap is the ability to build with AI
he identified 4 behaviors that break Claude Code and put them all into one file
a developer expanded it into 21 rules and published it - 82,000 stars and #1 on GitHub Trending
coding accuracy jumped from 65% to 94%
here's what these 21 rules actually are and why most developers using Claude every day have never configured them
the full breakdown is covered in the article below 👇
High cortisol steals 5 years from your life.
It tanks testosterone, stores dangerous visceral belly fat, and literally shrinks your brain.
Here are 10 cheat codes to lower cortisol according to science:🧵
1. Stop working out after 7PM

Dr. Michael Breus is the world's leading sleep expert.
On his latest podcast with Steven Bartlett he revealed the top 8 shocking truths about sleep, chronotypes and insomnia that 99% of people wouldn't know...
1. Don't go to the bathroom at 3AM
Andrew Huberman described the worst morning routine in five steps. Stay in bed, recline, skip sunlight, drink coffee too early, multitask. Every one of them targets the same 30-minute neural event.
Between minute 0 and 60 after waking, your body runs the cortisol awakening response. A healthy pulse lifts cortisol by about 50%, sets a 14-to-16 hour timer for melatonin release, primes immune function, and anchors alertness for the whole day. Miss the window and your circadian clock drifts until you go back to sleep. The rest of the day runs at 70%.
Sunlight is the trigger. Light has to hit melanopsin cells at the bottom of your retina to signal the suprachiasmatic nucleus to fire cortisol. Through a glass window you need 50 times longer. A phone screen is hundreds of times too dim to count. Curtains closed plus head down means the pathway never activates. The pulse either never fires or fires weakly, with effects rippling across the next 16 hours.
Reclining kills the second lever. Studies recording directly from the locus coeruleus and the reticular activating system show alertness drops with reclining and rises with sitting forward. Those melanopsin cells sit in the bottom of your retina for a reason. They evolved to see the sun overhead. Chin down, eyes down, horizontal body: the brainstem reads this signal set as "still asleep" and keeps you in sleep-adjacent arousal for hours.
Coffee at minute 10 kills the third. Adenosine is the sleep pressure molecule cleared by that cortisol pulse. Caffeine blocks adenosine receptors before cortisol gets the chance to clear them naturally. Two to three hours later the caffeine metabolizes, uncleared adenosine floods the receptors all at once, and you crash at 11am. Drink a second cup to patch the crash and you've shifted your cortisol peak four hours late. Which means your melatonin shifts too. Which means you can't sleep that night.
Phone scrolling kills the fourth. Morning dopamine baseline is the lowest it will be all day. Ten minutes of feed delivers hundreds of micro-rewards before breakfast is ready. You've spent peak dopamine on algorithm-selected stimuli. Every real task in the workday that follows registers as a downgrade against that baseline.
Multitasking kills the fifth. The prefrontal cortex boots last after waking. Task-switching between texts, emails, and random notifications during the boot window trains the attention network to run fragmented all day. Sophie Leroy's 2009 attention residue research showed each switch leaves cognitive spillover that degrades the next task. Start the morning with 20 switches and focus is a rented asset for the next 12 hours.
Five random-looking habits, five targeted attacks on the same mechanism. Light triggers the pulse. Posture amplifies it. Caffeine cooperates with it. Dopamine protects what it builds. Focus compounds what it anchors.
20 minutes outside with your phone in the other room fixes all five at once.
I've read roughly a book a week for 20 years.
These 5 changed how I think about money, freedom, and what it means to be alive:
