Harold Bloom reciting AE Housman's "Into the heart an air that kills." It is a poem he recites when Charlie Rose asks him what poem does he think will be in his heart when he draws his last breath.

There is also on youtube a moving video of Peter Hitchens reciting the same poem.

Writing code (mostly) stopped being the hard part. Metabolizing the throughput to production is. Infrastructure and harness become velocity moat, and hence, real leverage.

SITUATION UPDATE: Anthropic’s pre-IPO implied valuation has surged to $1.2T, up 20% in 7 days and 900% since October 2025.

If Anthropic IPOs at that valuation, it would be the 11th most valuable public company in the world.
