Claude Opus 5 is now available in Cursor!

It matches Fable 5 on CursorBench (66.7 vs 66.5 at default effort) at half the price. Unlike Fable, it's also compatible with Zero Data Retention.

Adam Jonas in new @SpaceX note:

"Longtime space geeks will tell you, 'space is hard.' They're not wrong. Others will say: "When it comes to space... failure is not an option." That is wrong. In space, failure is not just an option... it's a vital part of the testing and improvement process. If the engineers in the Apollo program were not allowed to fail, we would have never put men on the moon. Anomalies are, in fact, an unavoidable part of pushing the scientific boundaries of space. Investors should have realistic expectations about the physical realities of space. An investment in SpaceX is an exercise in 'the art of the possible, grounded in physical reality. It may be tempting to say "it's not rocket science"... but in this case it actually it is.

Anomalies provide short-term buying opportunities for investors to gain exposure to a leader in space and physical AI infrastructure.

What has historically set SpaceX apart is its willingness to test aggressively, fail and learn quickly, and eventually turn repeated setbacks into reliable operational capability."

people will envy you for having an aura that you literally had to go through hell and back for and it’s kind of hilarious.

The US government says IP theft is unacceptable and must face sanctions.

Anthropic, which just settled for $1.5 billion over IP theft from authors a few days ago.
OpenAI, which poached Apple employees and stole data.

It seems pretty reasonable that these two should be the very first ones to face sanctions.

Bananas are curved because they grow towards the Sun. A process called Negative Geotropism.

Every employer knows the salary you offer isn't the salary you actually pay.

Between statutory deductions, allowances, and compliance obligations, the true cost of an employee can catch the most experienced off guard.

That's why we built the Doxa Spectrum Cost Calculator.

NVIDIA'S JENSEN HUANG GIVES AN UPDATE ON KIMI K3 AND CHINA'S OPEN SOURCE MODELS:

"American companies should absolutely be allowed to use Chinese AI models. There's a misconception that somehow there are backdoors connected to China in someway. You download the models, fine tune them, guardrail them in any way you want."

"These Chinese opensource models are excellent. The market has misunderstood the impact of DeepSeek the first time. It's misunderstood the impact of Kimi this time. Open models are great for the whole industry, there will be more usage which will require selling more Nvidia computers and building more datacenters."

"Great models lead to more usage. There is also a misunderstanding that open models are going to hurt the closed models, that is also wrong."

Overcome yourself. Your fears. Your trauma. Your insecurities. Your toxic patterns. You don't need motivation, inspirations, and all that shit. You just need to sit with yourself and ask yourself "What the hell is stopping me from doing what I know I should".
