Most podcasts are BS because they are fluffy and lack substance.

This is the densest, most insightful episode you will listen to this year.

@gokulr breaks down the 8 defensible moats you need for your company to be successful in a world of AI.

1. Data (Proprietary and inaccessible)
2. Workflow (Deeply embedded operations)
3. Regulatory (Licenses and contracts)
4. Distribution (Exclusive proprietary channels)
5. Ecosystem (Third-party platform reliance)
6. Network (Marketplace liquidity density)
7. Physical (Infrastructure and atoms)
8. Scale (Low cost through volume)

@burkeholland You're clearly not using agents to do QA post coding.

@sama LLM Cycling is something I recommend people do. Take Claude and ask it to be a product manager and ask it to improve the output from ChatGPT. Then, ask Gemini to do the same thing. Then ChatGPT for Gemini's. Keep cycling until the product input is small . Unreal results.

@nicksortor Wait, did you really just celebrate the actions of the person who undid what he created? He raised food prices through tariffs, and you don’t condemn him, then he lowers the prices and you praise him?

@peterrhague Because she initiated the dialogue and you didn’t. (In your example)

You’re solving the literal problem, but not the problem she’s actually presenting to you.

@matt_vanswol Democrats? I think you mean “politicians.”

@elonmusk This data is flawed. It’s important to understand that too.

@CollinRugg The Department of Defense spent approximately $191.9 billion on military personnel compensation in FY 2024 to pay the 2.1 million active duty and reserve troops, according to USAFacts.

That's 521M a day or $5B every 10 days.

I'm not buying it.

@paulg If this was a YouTube video, you’d hollow out the old tool and insert that mouse in it so that you could use it in combination. Old and new combined.

@pitdesi Strongest non-finnish study appears to be this one:
Laukkanen JA, Laukkanen T, Kunutsor SK. Cardiovascular and Other Health Benefits of Sauna Bathing: A Review of the Evidence. Mayo Clin Proc. 2018 Aug;93(8):1111-1121. doi: 10.1016/j.mayocp.2018.04.008.

@stevechen I mean, you're technical enough to have done so...

@saberube @useintro I highly recommend people take advantage of Simon's expertise. Great opportunity to learn from a founder!

[Matthew Mengerink @mengerin]

@dvansickle @useintro Health tech is a brutal space. For anyone who wants to know grit and success in this space, they should spend time with David!

[Matthew Mengerink @mengerin]

In a recent @useintro session, I shared insights on scaling platforms and building innovative tech solutions. The founder walked away with a clear strategy and actionable steps to move forward.

Worst streaming event I’ve experienced yet. Failed stream repeatedly. Pixelation constantly. Spinning Black Death. Wouldn’t play on my laptop at all. Bad day for Netflix.

I was surprised they chose to advertise their sports streaming service during such poor performance.

@tomcolicchio Psychologically speaking, he’s splitting. He’s incapable of seeing a spectrum of beliefs. Just black and white.

You believe in feeding people who are hungry and taking care of those who are sick.

So, you know, communist.

@useintro I never regretted my decision to go to DejaNews in 1995. And it didn’t succeed like Amazon. Great framework to use.
