Looks like Uber Eats launched autonomous delivery in Austin and doesn't charge a tip when choosing it

They love hardware builders in NYC

@0xEthanS @patrickc @_brianpotter Even massive improvements like the big renovation of Paris to its beautiful inner city architecture today had strong objections at the time. People always dislike change… https://t.co/KEA1b6LfSY

It's time to bring back the 1915 world's fair architecture

[Pat Becker @plbecker]

@StatisticUrban Marina district during the 1915 world's fair had a much more timeless style. Almost all was temporary and later demolished.

@patrickc @_brianpotter Agreed but seems like we overcorrected on that.
Also, NIMBYs want to maintain or increase their property values because supply remains constant if new housing projects are blocked (and demand goes up)

@moizali Pick any location NOT mentioned in a reply to your tweet if you want true underrated spots in Europe

[Pat Becker @plbecker]

The exact same street in Austin in 2018 and 2026. New multifamily units going up everywhere. Love to see it 🚀

@eikedrescher @spielwerkapp Plain text prompting was never the final form factor. Love this!

All answers sought from the silicon God must pass through the approved priesthood first. Very 1517.

Streamers, it's time to make the switch.

@samuelstros Sadly not ideal for more complex relational datasets & if you want to give users easy ways to suggest edits, have a version history of individual rows etc.

[Pat Becker @plbecker]

Is there an equivalent of GitHub for open-source databases / crowd-sourced data that lets users suggest edits, version history etc? Couldn't find anything established

@jonas_nelle @autotabai @cursor_ai @alexirobbins Congrats, Jonas! Excited to try this

Collected as many infamous Hacker News launch comments of companies that went on to be huge (Airbnb, Stripe, Cursor & others) ⬇️

[Peter Steinberger 🦞 @steipete]

In der USA sind die meisten Menschen enthusiastisch.
In Europa werde ich beschimpft, Leute schreien REGULIERUNG und VERANTWORTUNG.

Und wenn ich wirklich hier eine Firma baue dann kann ich mich mit Themen wie Investitionsschutzgesetz, Mitarbeiterbeteiligung und lähmenden Arbeitsregulierungen abkämpfen. Bei OAI arbeiten die meisten Leute 6-7 Tage die Woche und werden depentsprechend bezahlt. Be uns ist das illegal.

@Ricburton If those numbers would make me lose control of my company, I have no other choice. Admirable how locked in you are!
