Proud of this one

@kareem_carr We're code reviewers now we are still creating stuff but we don't get our hands dirty with code as we used to. Coding is becoming a similar skill as knitting, you can decide to knit a jumper to keep you warm in the winter but you don't have to.

@craigzLiszt @Google has the best access to data and will end up with the best models. OpenAI needs to innovate pretty fast

Google just made a subtle but massive change

Last month, Google quietly removed the num=100 search parameter.

This means you can no longer view 100 results at once. The default max is now 10.

Why does this matter?

- Most LLMs (OpenAI, Perplexity, etc.) rely (directly or indirectly) on Google’s indexed results, alongside their own crawlers.

- Overnight, their access to the “long tail” of the internet was cut by 90%.

The fallout:

- According to Search Engine Land, 88% of sites saw a drop in impressions.

- Reddit, which often ranks in positions 11–100, saw its LLM citations plummet. Its stock dropped 15%.

For startups, this is brutal. Visibility just got harder. Reddit as part of AEO just changed entirely.

It’s no longer enough to build a great product you need to crack distribution first. Because if people can’t discover you, they’ll never get to evaluate you.

Most engineers seem to always neglect this reality, but a mediocre product with great distribution will always beat a great product with mediocre distribution.

As Peter Thiel says:

“Most businesses get zero distribution channels to work: poor sales rather than bad product is the most common cause of failure. If you can get just one distribution channel to work, you have a great business. If you try for several but don’t nail one, you’re finished.

Superior sales and distribution by itself can create a monopoly, even with no product differentiation. The converse is not true. No matter how strong your product — even if it easily fits into already established habits and anybody who tries it likes it immediately — you must still support it with a strong distribution plan."

Distribution > Product

@nolanevns It's easy to stand on a higher moral platform just by advocating for illegal immigrants. But this issue is way more complex and actually having control of your border and reporting illegal immigrants would be good for the country. Why would you want to welcome illegal immigrants

@nuriapiera Debemos de pensar de que en Alemania, Finlandia, y otros países mas avanzados las madres leen muchos libros de crianza infantil que brindan muchas estrategias no violentas. Hay que copiarlo. He conocido excelente personas que nunca les pegaron. Miedo y terror no es respeto

@Amin__Nakib @GoogleAI Yes definitely. Although it also depends on what the company you work for uses. Lately Azure last year Azure saw a massive grow, probably due to databricks. But even if you learn GCP first, making a transition would be easier.

@digitransit I can't access the digitransit website nor the API. Any idea when this might get fixed. I'm getting a 403 Azure error

@digitransit I can't access your website or API. It's the 403 Azure error again.
