Does anyone have experience building a multi player knowledge base?

@SebastianCaliri @seehafer This is great news for the US

[Owen McCarthy @OwenZMcCarthy]

@DARPA is in Portland, Maine today. All six technical offices.

Maine's defense economy: 4.6B, about 1,900 manufacturers, 372 maritime organizations. The builders have always been here.

If you want evidence that capitalism is a force for good, just visit a grocery store.

My ode to the humble American supermarket, for @WSJFreeEx

@laurel_libby Probably a better investment then whatever Augusta has been spending our money on :)

Breaking news, @bhorowitz solved the Tupac murder! His book/investor wins may be impressive to some, but to me this makes him a legend

@StuartBlitz If it was Doug Leone - he won’t use pain killers

Some people are wired differently. @dougleone told his dentist to drill his root canal with no novocaine.

Not for a bet. He wanted to know if he was actually tough or just looked it.

@FDA 's new GenAI discussion paper gets it right: evidence scales with what the software does and what happens when it's wrong, not with whether there's an LLM inside.

It still doesn't answer who pays, as from my experience at MedRhythms (where we got a medicare code). These are two different clocks.

@16vchq Coming soon!

@theRXmusicguy Proud of you music guy

It's time to build mega data centers. In counties where they're already operational, the picture is uniformly better since 2024:

- More housing
- Higher home values
- Less unemployment
- More job growth

@KayStarfire Very familiar

How can we tackle the challenges of AI when this is what a sitting senator thinks?!

[Seth Moulton @sethmoulton]

No, Siri and Claude are not the same, and yes, it does matter that you understand why, Senator.

[Owen McCarthy @OwenZMcCarthy]

@markeyversehq Frankly not pro-Moulton either

[Owen McCarthy @OwenZMcCarthy]

@lauren_e_lepage 100%; it’s what happens when the engineers (ignore that I was an engineer for a second) do public relations/public affairs work

@SteveRob They are doing the work of the CCP
