@lawrencenewport We need to be bolder, hopefully this is a helpful signal

@jamespotter This is epic

@ktoya_me This is awesome Boris. There's something pleasing about the pure logic in its reasoning. Logic that's lost in the room when actual humans are trying to read each other. I wonder what @Liv_Boeree thinks of this?

[David Watkins @dwatkins_]

@alexgkendall @wayve_ai @Uber I'm guessing that will be a major early advantage over Waymo

Still waiting on Strava MCP access. Let people in and rate-limit the calls if volume is the concern.

You’re burning through the hype window

@etnshow @Alex_C_Best @Bloomberg Congrats gents

5x a normal day on DASH Flex yesterday. Assumed the bad weather would cancel out the Tube strike spike, but it was a record day instead. When the Tube stops, Londoners still find a way

@b_nnett Just in time - love this project. What was the hardest part?

[David Watkins @dwatkins_]

@matthewmillerai Compounding in action - keep it up. I'm sure this has been asked before, but what's your token / subscription spend?

[David Watkins @dwatkins_]

Claude, get me a sub-3 marathon. Make no mistakes.

[David Watkins @dwatkins_]

@lukeharries @winstonweinberg @harvey Every AI Tinkerers event I've been to has been superb. Looking forward to this one

Cycled past a Waymo in Vauxhall this morning. First one I've seen south of the river. Maybe it's gone rogue and strayed from the herd

[David Watkins @dwatkins_]

@ArchieHall I wonder what the rate of change is for value exported over time. Are we growing relative to the rest of the world?

[David Watkins @dwatkins_]

@Jameswise @balderton Naval made a similar point recently: humans are wired to hunt large animals in small groups. Startups tap into the same instinct.

Hard, uncertain and occasionally brutal. But you’ll never feel more alive.

Britain needs more people willing to go on that hunt

@GeorgeJeffersn @paulg In an old life I worked for JLR up in Warwickshire. Warm summer evenings I'd drive around the Cotswolds in a convertible Jag after work. Felt like heaven

[David Watkins @dwatkins_]

@alexanderrX_ If you ride them regularly you should check out DASH Flex

[David Watkins @dwatkins_]

@isnit0 Feels like building anything in the UK is perceived as 'mad'. Keep fighting the good fight

[David Watkins @dwatkins_]

@klaudiusdev @rishabhritan @TC1dev @ltoshea Same

@isnit0 1000% this
