Discipline, absolute commitment to customers, and playing the long game pays off huge. Congrats @samlambert @PlanetScale

[Sam Lambert @samlambert]

For 5 years PlanetScale has had one thesis: reliability, performance, and scalability are all that matter for DBs.

The scale to zero and vibe coded slop DBs have grown faster but our customers have built giant businesses on top of us and thats how you win in the long term.

Great deep dive on humanoid robotics from the incredibly thoughtful @SourishJasti

[Sourish Jasti @SourishJasti]

1/ General-purpose robotics is the rare technological frontier where the US / China started at roughly the same time and there's no clear winner yet.

To better understand the landscape, @zoeytang_1007, @intelchentwo, @vishnuman0 and I spent the last ~8 weeks creating a deep dive on humanoid robotics hardware and flew to China to see the supply chain firsthand.

Here's everything we've created + our takeaways about the components, humanoid comparisons, supply chains, and geopolitics👇
