@reidhoffman Reid, with respect, the founder of the largest masturbatorium for middle managers ever constructed does not need to be coaching the rest of us on conversation.

“can i start you off with an appetizer, maybe 30 tortillas?”

“god no, i can’t eat that many tortillas!”

“how about if cut them up into triangles, fry them in seed oil, & serve them with some salsa?”

“omg that sounds delightful”.

My dream is for WhatsApp to include the option to disable voice note. When someone tries to send one, a message will appear that says, "You can't send voice notes to this user, TYPE."

@adadithya this is incredible!

Most of the health influencer industry, sans any medical degree, has reached a stage where they have run out of things to say or repeat. So now they follow two principles -

1. Find any traditional Indian item, method, recipe and criticise it.

- आप जो आटे को गूँथ कर रोटी बना कर खा रहे हैं ..उससे कैंसर हो सकता है। आटे को सुखा खायें और गरम तवे पर मुँह रख लें।

2. Desperately search for items that no other influencer has spoken about and turn it into nectar for eternal life.

- कच्ची भिंडी के बीज और उबले केले के छिलके को मसूर की दाल के साथ पीस कर अपने नथुनों में भर कर सो जाएँ। BP, Sugar और जोड़ों के दर्द से राहत मिलेगी और skin भी बेहतरीन हो जाएगी।

takes longer and is more complex to write an eval for systems than to build the actual system.

Don't know if it matters, but frappe now has more github stars than bitcoin and mongodb 🤷‍♂️

[atlas @creatine_cycle]

it goes without saying but if you're feeling anxious about the global geopolitical situation, oceans boiling, authoritarian tendencies in the west and accelerated job loss due to AI then i recommend spending as much time on your phone as possible.
being informed calms the mind

Loved this quote from Rajeev Kapur :
“AI is like teen sex. Everyone's talking about it, very few know how to do it, everyone thinks everyone else is doing it, and everyone claims they are doing it."

My new favorite insult is calling someone’s job a Claude skill.

I’ve stayed in hotel rooms over the past week and was wondering if anyone else wishes manufacturers would write “shampoo” and “conditioner” in a bigger font so we could read them in the shower without our glasses. FFS 😖

Consulting companies and the new economy:

"The big question in artificial intelligence economics is: If you are a company that sells some sort of knowledge-work service, will AI make you more efficient, or will it make you worthless? The bull case for, say, a consulting firm is that you can use AI to replace a lot of your expensive employees, cutting costs and providing better and faster consulting, increasing your sales and margins. The bear case is that your clients can use AI to replace you, cutting their costs and getting better and faster consulting, decreasing your sales and margins.

"This creates a weird dynamic where knowledge-industry companies are simultaneously saying to their employees “you are all worthless and we will replace you with machines” and saying to their customers “oooh our employees are amazing and could never be replaced by machines.”"

It occurs to me that almost all trained medical practitioners gatekeep, and would rather that you die of the disease than a cure they don’t understand. They will allow you to die of a cure they do understand though. Under no circumstance do they acknowledge your own agency over your own body.

[Nick St. Pierre @nickfloats]

Big identity crisis in many engineering circles rn.

People who've historically considered themselves "builders" now realizing they aren't the ones building shit anymore, AI is.

The moral superiority of the "I build things, you just talk" mentality is irrelevant now that the coding language is english and anyone can build things by talking.

The skills that made them so economically valuable are almost fully commoditized, and they're being forced to adopt a new identity.

An identity most of them despise and have mocked their entire careers.

To remain relevant, they must become the "idea guy"

[Anuj Khurana @anuj]

Couldnt agree more. Right now both product and engineering teams are busy finding excuses for why claude doesn't work for their codebase. Both are afraid.

Engg continues to build plumbing and product continues to "own the outcome" without owning the implementation.

[Naval @naval]

Vibe coding is the new product management.

Training and tuning models is the new coding.
