@jeffgrimes9 @Plaid Nice work, Jeff!

@burkov I love your writing - couldn't put down the 100-page books, even when I was supposed to be "out" on my honeymoon. Out of curiosity, what are you building?

👉 Great draft aid, terrible final authority. Always verify.

Tried o3 for “please summarize this 30-page report to explain this product.” It hallucinated numbers and arguments with completely made up case studies for the product. 😬

[Nabeel S. Qureshi @nabeelqu]

If you’re using o3 for work I strongly recommend double-checking every number it gives you

Studying anon accounts I admire

No bio, no motives—classic projection halo

I fill the gaps and think “wow, genius”

Even more respect for real-name posters who hit the same bar—skin-in-the-game brilliance.

@marisbest2 You’re right that procurement and integration is broken and point solutions don’t solve the real problem. Alt. approach might be to fix the procurement process to make it both rigorous and fast, and let that efficient matching force better product. Moving towards building that OS

@yishan @wiesbauerMD CT contrast rarely ruins sleep long-term, but one possible mechanism: iodine surge → iodine-induced hyperthyroidism (Jod-Basedow) → jitters + insomnia. To test, ask for TSH/free T4 labs; treat the thyroid and sleep usually rebounds. Not medical advice.

@tlrdrkmrgn @BillAckman @SpaceX @xai @anduriltech @elonmusk @PalmerLuckey @Albedo @TopherHaddad Not to mention it’s the only commercially available source of 10cm visual images combined with 2m thermal images.

@nikillinit First with the sous vide steaks and now with the oysters- why you tryna attack my favorite foods!

Much like in large software projects, institutions encode logic that might make sense at the time, but as times change, they become outdated. Still, they're hard to change because no one remembers why we added it in the first place or knows what would happen if we remove it.

[Quite Interesting @qikipedia]

From 1264 to 1827, anyone who received a Master of Arts degree from Oxford had to swear that they would never forgive Henry Symeonis. By 1608, no one knew who he was or what he had done.

@traestephens Zuck is largely apolitical with Meta decisions / wants to win / this take has so much explanatory power

[patrick wingo @patrick_wingo]

sam thinks before he talks and he definitely thinks before he tweets. this is a huge flex for the quality of the offering and a play to bring on more subscribers- because while it's likely true, they're also halving their compute costs every 6 months

insane thing: we are currently losing money on openai pro subscriptions!

people use it much more than we expected.

@MabreyTed Palantir is the first job for many and they don’t know how high the bar is set until they’ve left. It provided

- access to work on huge problems at the enterprise
- product leverage to solve them

But Palums who stay long enough to learn the trade become absolutely cracked!

@packyM This article was absolutely based. Great job, Packy.

@mttgrmm Campus 805 is a lot of fun if you have some time in HSV! Also Gold Sprint is a great coffee place.

[patrick wingo @patrick_wingo]

@dvasishtha Definitely, but you could also extend to point-of-care CDS and help clinicians perform better. I think CDS / clinical summarization / AI scribes will bundle together over time.

[patrick wingo @patrick_wingo]

@bryan_johnson @DavidSHolz Can you also run the numbers on optimal temperature / time effects? Lot of variables to measure, could be worth recruiting some additional folks

@rargulati @GPaullJr Y’all keep doing your thing and we’ll keep building in ATL.

We spend a ton of time writing this newsletter every week. Definitely give it a shot if you want to hear our nerdy takes!

[Dhruv Vasishtha @dvasishtha]

The Elion newsletter is one of the best resources I've seen to keep up with all things healthcare AI.

In particular their interviews with buyers on their current initiatives and asks from vendors is something I haven't seen from any other healthcare newsletters
