Can we get this onto kashi or polymarket?

The court asked defendants to pay $22k almost a year ago.

The Court asked them again, a second time, about a month ago.

Based Sol ignored the Court.

What do we think is going to happen now?

A. Nothing because nothing sticks to Sol
B. Sol files for bankruptcy (3rd time)
C. Judge does something to end litigation in year 9

The 3rd trial is scheduled February 16th and I have a very bad feeling in my gut as I write this...

@rossiadam @Molson_Hart This is the correct redemptive arc. Make the $1m back on a documentary. Send it.

You can retire early by simply going to prison? Why didn’t I think of this?!

@BillDA Makes sense to me.

Just started expirementing with running models privately on rented GPUs. I was surprised how easy it is, and claude convinced me into a setup thats like $3-$6 and hour. Not bad for not sending my data into the ether.

An IRS could go out of business with those sort of swings.

I just got the draft of my 2025 tax return - it says I owe $117,360 of tax. On top of what I already paid.

Oof.

But it didn't feel right to me.

I asked ChatGPT Astra to do a secondary review, ticking and tying every number to source documents. Max effort. It ran for 90 minutes.

Output - a 15 page report. It says I'm actually due a $191,173 REFUND.

I reviewed Astra's work line by line with my accountant. He agreed, the LLM is correct.

I was about to send Uncle Sam $117,360. Instead, I'm getting back $191,173.

That's a swing of $308,533 (!!!!!!)

The LLM couldn't have done my tax return from scratch - I still need my accountant. But for massively complex detail oriented work, and LLM is the best thought partner you can have.

Connect a frontier LLM to your email and file storage, then ask it to review your past tax returns. You never know what it might find. My prompt is in the next tweet.

@EricJorgenson Fact. We have been pushed past speechless. Onto the laughter stage.

@bgurley @bgurley what do you think of labor marketplaces since your conversation with @patrick_oshag re. RigUp; Feels like economic swings like these would be prime for more gig-work tailwinds.

@MDEredita @MoreGoodJobs @turoczy @JoeMaruschak I haven’t seen a discount on coaching.

With new VC “platforms” it seems like the bigger firms are doubling down on coaching and support as well.

@mccoype @rabois @jaltma I love this because, somehow, with all the politics of the last decade.. Kerry was still the first word that popped into my head when I read “flip flops”

@baldridgecpa @baldridgecpa is that the talk where we ended up talking about real estate stuff half way through? (Or do land donations not count?) 🤣

[Zach Marshall @_zach_marshall]

@JamesShomar @MoreGoodJobs @MDEredita Glad to contribute. I continue to learn from the @MoreGoodJobs community as well!

@LunaStorage @realEstateTrent I’ve heard a range from $10 to $24 (could be wrong).

As a comparison I’ve looked at some of the highest quality office spaces downtown, and they were asking around 17NNN, and offering quite a bit of incentives to build out

[Zach Marshall @_zach_marshall]

@realEstateTrent Note: many of the tenants’ employers pay their membership/rent

[Zach Marshall @_zach_marshall]

@realEstateTrent 3 suburban focused cowork spaces have open around Rochester, NY to meet this need.

All 3 are doing great.

A few opened in the city of Rochester as well, including the one I have a small private office in.

Huge opportunity for more high quality spaces.
