The flood of AI will turn almost everything into an “investment decision problem”. 1 VC firm, 40.000 investment memos per month. 1 biotech 1M+ drug candidates. LLMs excel at generation not at reduction. Committees are old school

Spent the last 2 years building this. Let’s talk?

@antirez Big B2B work in EMEA. They aren’t trying to compete in the formula 1 and burn cash, they’re just selling really nice cars to rich people

[Pascal Brokmeier @PascalBrokmeier]

@eastdakota @SocketSecurity Lastly how is “1 severe warning for Nuclear risks” in your cyber dashboard a cloak of invisibility? If anything it’s a giant red target on your back

[Pascal Brokmeier @PascalBrokmeier]

@eastdakota @SocketSecurity If anything the hackers will think they’re safe but really, their stuff gets flagged.

That is assuming the code gets sent in via an intermediary that controls what flows in such as coderabbit etc

[Pascal Brokmeier @PascalBrokmeier]

@eastdakota @SocketSecurity Not really sure what the point is. Cyberscanning tenants get their cyber protections disabled so this won’t happen. It’s not like every tenant has the same guardrails

@ericjang11 Problem is you also need a decent CLI/Harness to go with it

@NekoKirito7 @miaaowing It’s Europeans continent. They should be able to make whatever rules they want.

I am one of them and I rather have this rule than iPhone mirroring.

No one forced Apple to sell phones there

[Pascal Brokmeier @PascalBrokmeier]

@andruyeung All true but recreational drug use is also at an all time high. People pop pills more casually than ever before. There are 2 festivals for every 1 resident in some parts of Europe it feels.

Is recreation generally going up and only alc going down?

[Pascal Brokmeier @PascalBrokmeier]

@ZackKorman Probably a luxury claim but the best companies are more interesting than any side project the individuals can come up with

I never understood the idea of putting a middleman like an electricity provider between you and your electrons. Dynamos exist and in the age of excess calories why not put the work in and charge your own batteries?

[Ahmad @TheAhmadOsman]

I never understood the idea of putting a middleman like Tailscale between you & your local nodes

WireGaurd exists, and in the age of agents even having a Dynamic IP or firewall issues could easily be solved

So why not spend the time to learn and cut the middle man? Skill issue?

[Pascal Brokmeier @PascalBrokmeier]

@itsolelehmann @aisolopreneur Ofc I recognize that. In fact I got the exact comment about my partner, dealing with my city hopping and it made me re-appreciate her even more.

Apologies if this offended you, I just wanted to highlight that most people couldn’t handle this and you found someone that does.

[Pascal Brokmeier @PascalBrokmeier]

@tushark_29 @m2jr Interesting, how does Claude make them / commands without having invoked that MCP server though? I thought MCP recently became less context polluting and it only loads tools/searches for them when needed

[Pascal Brokmeier @PascalBrokmeier]

@m2jr The notion pages are all in a notion DB and we use the verification tool + owners and RBAC from Notion to ensure someone ones it and not everyone can edit it but everyone can leave comments to improve it.

[Pascal Brokmeier @PascalBrokmeier]

@m2jr We just use Notion and then create org shared skills that simply say “read this page, follow the instructions there”. Feels like the 2026 version of a C pointer 😅

[Pascal Brokmeier @PascalBrokmeier]

@kiwicopple @supabase How’s this not the norm? It absolutely blows my mind to hear how employees walk away and loose it all or have to buy illiquid shares with a net salary that was non competitive as the shares where the “upside” replacing the 30% higher corporate job.

[Pascal Brokmeier @PascalBrokmeier]

@harjtaggar @garrytan Now the key question: how do you recognise this during the hiring process

[Pascal Brokmeier @PascalBrokmeier]

@petergyang Symbolic link? I have skills in a global ~/Code/ai-skills and symlink those with a small script to all the global Claude codex open code etc locations. That way all these tools have my skills globally but the instructions to each repo and subfolder locally.

[Pascal Brokmeier @PascalBrokmeier]

@harvey @FireworksAI_HQ What is your post training approach? Did you ensure the model remains conditioned not to confabulate? Did you run an experiment asking these models to explain a made up law and see where they differ? We found fine tuning removes the “I don’t know” post training

[Pascal Brokmeier @PascalBrokmeier]

Whatever happened to Google Jules?

[Pascal Brokmeier @PascalBrokmeier]

@AndrewYNg Sounds like QB from McKinsey or Gamma BCG have the better FDE value prop given your independence wish. If only they paid the same as the labs they’d have the same talent levels too.

I predict FDE will be far bigger in EU than US because consultants are really common here.
