Every month, @_nomos adds 2 to 4 new databases to its monitoring platform.
All our clients automatically benefit from this when we add a new database.
This is because we understand that our product is not raw data, but an intelligence service through our agents.
I decided to get back to communicating about the new databases being added... in the focus of day-to-day operations, I end up forgetting to talk about what we're building!
But here it is, live and available to all clients: COAF, CVM Economic Bulletin, and ANPD.
And there are already many more databases in the works, more to come soon! If you're tired of talking to your platform about databases and want to start experimenting with our regulatory automations, just give us a call!
Thanks to @Google for featuring @_nomos in Finfacts 2026.
We’re helping banks and fintechs put their compliance and risk intelligence on autopilot
and we’re doing it with Google’s Cloud and AI technology.
I have a really hard time when people use that large companies as a benchmark of efficiency
They are not…
Historically large companies have a hard time in using their resource efficiently…
Just throwing AI budget on teams does not mean an actual correct use of it
AI has proven its efficiency in numerous ways: science, discovery speed, manual tasks automated
But who are actually training thousand and thousands of work force to actually use those new tools?
AI adoption was faster than any technology before it, and people get surprised when workforce is not ready to use it the proper way
Of course, people haven’t even figure out how it does actually work…
The first big event of OpenAI recognized companies by token usage… the memes around startups are entrepreneurs asking their teams to burn tokens
And now when they actually do it, people get scared… really?
My take here: people are realizing that measuring token usage is like when managers tries to measure a company the lines of code written…
bs
Real companies will always measure their success by impact and efficiency
What you are seeing is the (in my point of view totally expected) bad usage of a new technology as a result of a revolution of all industries at the same time
Of course bubble and inflated costs will be part of it… it already happened in the past
You have just a short memory problem
This is what we've been seeing with every company we work with.
Try justifying spending 100k on token spend when only 18k even makes it to a stable prod feature.
In the rush to maximize AI token spend, companies are wasting over 44% on bug fixes
Every time someone comes to me asking on how to learn to code I don’t recommend an LLM
I recommend the Playground app by @Apple
Learning logic will prepare you to whatever coding technology is ahead.
Claude Code is about to release a feature called /workflows that I think will be extremely significant.
Especially for Enterprise AI.
I talked about this in 2024 in a post called Companies Are Just Graphs of Algorithms.
Basically the idea is that all work is just an algorithm, i.e., a series of steps to accomplish a goal.
Skills and Cowork have been heading in this direction already, and we've seen what that's done to company valuations in various spaces.
Well this is closer to the final form.
It's turning the regular, expected work that's done in companies into pseudo-deterministic workflows that follow defined SOPs.
The human role will be determining what problems to solve (taste, expeirence, etc), building new products from that, and then optimizing these workflows from above.
But the work itself will be these workflows executed according to SOPs.
As an entrepreneur, let me say this:
You MUST go all-in on AI in your business: not because it’s hype,
but because in the near future your competitors will be AI companies, and bro… they don’t sleep.
In a study of people with generalized anxiety disorder, only 8.6% of recorded worries actually happened.
The most common outcome: 0%. Not a single worry came true.

Minecraft (Java Edition client/decompiled): ~285,000 – 500,000 lines
Instagram (app estimates): ~1 million lines
US Military Drone (control software): ~3.5 million lines
YouTube (core estimates): ~5 – 10 million lines
World of Warcraft (core, older estimate): ~5.5 million lines
Boeing 787 (avionics + support systems): ~6.5 million lines
Google Chrome / Chromium: ~6.7 – 36 million lines
Chevy Volt (vehicle software): ~10 million lines

Windows XP: ~45 million lines
Linux Kernel (2025, v6.14+): ~40 million lines
Large Hadron Collider (software suite): ~50 million lines

Notes:
• All figures are estimates — LOC varies by counting method (with/without comments, tests, libraries, etc.).
• Small apps (WhatsApp, Telegram, etc.) usually refer to client-side only. Full backend systems are much larger.
• Modern projects grow rapidly; these are snapshots from reliable historical and public sources.
I really don’t think this is bad if what Chris describes in the thread is true
Learning does not comes from giving ok to AI to complete tasks
I see Universities / Colleges as the places where real thinking will have to become more and more the final teaching… and not actually the technical stuff itself
The mind works in different ways for different tasks aspects.
What is making the school outdated is not the use or not of AI… but the lack of investment in really developing the minds of new generations instead of being a simple oral replication of what is already written in books (or other people’s minds)
