Today, we announced that we crossed $7B in revenue run-rate, growing over 80% year over year in Q2.

We also shared:
🚀 $100M+ revenue run-rate for Lakebase
🚀 $1.5B+ revenue run-rate for Lakehouse, growing over 100% year over year
🚀 Continued positive adjusted free cash flow

And we raised $5B in our latest fundraise.

We’ll use this capital to invest in:
1️⃣ Lakebase, our serverless Postgres database built for AI agents
2️⃣ Genie, our AI coworkers that actually understand your business data
3️⃣ Unity AI Gateway, our multi-AI governance solution that helps control costs

An underrated life lesson: Tolerance for uncertainty is the most valuable human trait. The greatest rewards in life go to those who can show up every single day even when the rewards are uncertain. The one who can tolerate the most uncertainty is the one who will eventually win.

I went to the Senate floor to lay out for my colleagues the stunning story of brazen, open corruption during the first 6 weeks of the Trump presidency.

I think it's a story everyone needs to know.

Modern supply chains don't look like trade theory 101!

They involve constant border crossings, each now hit by tariffs.

Tariffs raise prices, but the more important thing they do is disrupt supply relationships.

Alex Rodriguez asked a question. Reggie Jackson answered it.

(Shouts to the producer and rest of the desk for staying out of Reggie’s way and just letting him talk. I doubt they expected this answer. But it’s a great few minutes of television.)

This makes me laugh everytime I watch it. 😭

I'm speechless.

Not peer-reviewed yet but a submitted paper.

The 'presented images' were shown to a group of humans. The 'reconstructed images' were the result of an fMRI output to Stable Diffusion.

In other words, #stablediffusion literally read people's minds.

Bing is a pretty great coach for job interviews.

It gives you specific questions for particular companies to practice and then gives you very detailed (and pretty solid!) feedback on your answers.

Of course, you can just have ChatGPT make up good interview responses for you...

Neat: what produces "Aha!" moments of revelation?

It happens when we discover a task we thought would take a long time is much faster than we thought, since our problem-solving abilities are better than we thought. Explains moments of revelation in education & in video games.

Egg prices up 47%. Sorry, there is a good egg pun I am sure I'm missing for y'all "Prices for food at-home rose .. 14.4% year-over-year as of July 31" https://t.co/sjAWlItRC0
