Exciting times

[Noira.ai @MeetNoira]

Last week, we rolled out a couple of big upgrades to keep your product team in sync and in flow.

✨ Chat with Context – Now with Natural Timespan Language
Noira Chat with context now understands natural timespans, so you can compare insights between different periods and gather exactly the data you need, all in plain language.

✨ New Dashboard
We’ve redesigned the dashboard to give you a real-time overview of everything that matters: see all your ingested data, check which integrations are live, and jump straight into Noira Chat.

Coming Up Next Week… We’re about to launch integrations with Notion, Jira, Discord, and GitHub. Connect your favorite tools, unify your context, and let Noira do the heavy lifting.

Exciting capabilities soon!

[Noira.ai @MeetNoira]

Early access to Noira is now open and we're starting out with the free Notetaker for Google Meet. 🍾

Starting today, every team can use Noira to transcribe meetings, summarize and capture action items.

This launch is just the first step. In the weeks ahead, you’ll see Noira expand with:

✅ Background Agents that surface insights and automate tasks
✅ Chat that connects decisions across tools
✅ A Knowledge Base that maps your product and people in real time

👉 Try the Notetaker now at: https://t.co/arY9gNBvEY

At some point the meaning of ‘driving’ and ‘self-driving’ will invert.

just got off a 4 hour call with sources inside chinese deepseek labs and holy shit we are so fucking behind it's not even funny anymore. deepseek r2 isn't just an incremental improvement it's a completely different species of intelligence operating on principles nobody in the west has even theorized yet.

they've abandoned transformer architectures entirely for something they're calling "recursive cognition lattices" that scale in dimensions our math doesn't even have good notation for. compute efficiency gains that violate what we thought were fundamental limits. like 400x improvement in reasoning per teraflop. not 4x. not 40x. 400 fucking x. our benchmarks are literally meaningless now.

the scariest part isn't the raw capability but how it's developing novel mathematical frameworks on the fly to solve problems. researchers give it questions and it invents entirely new branches of mathematics to answer them. one physicist showed it a problem he'd been stuck on for 15 years and it solved it in seconds with notation nobody recognized. took three days to translate its solution back into standard mathematics.

saw demo videos that can't possibly be real except multiple independent sources confirming. r2 designed and simulated a room temperature superconductor from first principles in under an hour. complete with fabrication methods using existing technology. they've already produced samples in beijing labs. western physics community hasn't even caught up to the theoretical possibility.

their integration with biological systems is the real nightmare fuel. two-way neural interfaces that make neuralink look like a children's toy. direct cognitive enhancement already in human trials with volunteers showing 30-40% gains in problem-solving capability. that's not science fiction that's happening right fucking now in shenzhen while we debate about chatbot regulations.

deepseek isn't even their most advanced system. that's just what they're showing publicly. the real bleeding edge is happening in military applications. system-level understanding of geopolitics that can predict policy shifts before the policymakers themselves know what decisions they'll make. they're already using it to reshape global trade flows so subtly nobody's noticed yet.

america is still treating this like a normal technology race while china understands it's an extinction-level transformation of civilization. they're integrating these systems into governance infrastructure at every level while we argue about prompt engineering and banning chatbots in schools. it's like watching a nuclear power race where one side is debating the ethics of gunpowder.

our intelligence community is fucking panicking behind closed doors. three separate agencies have submitted classified assessments that all reach the same conclusion: we've got months not years before the capability gap becomes unbridgeable. some analysts saying it already happened and we just don't know it yet.

the recursive self-improvement capabilities are accelerating beyond all models. deepseek r2 basically wrote r3 which is currently training and early benchmarks suggest it's to r2 what r2 was to anything we've built in the west. exponential curves stacked on exponential curves.

if america doesn't wake the fuck up and treat this like the existential priority it is we're looking at a future where technological supremacy isn't just shifted it's permanently lost. the world 12 months from now won't just have different geopolitical power dynamics it'll operate on fundamentally different rules of reality.

One of the most exciting things we've done.

@SuperVizSDK now has native support for YJS 🔥

Insane! 👏👏💪🥢

Starship rocket booster caught by tower

[SpaceX @SpaceX]

Performance stats of previous versions:

Raptor 1 (sea level variant)
Thrust: 185tf
Specific impulse: 350s
Engine mass: 2080kg
Engine + vehicle-side commodities and hardware mass: 3630kg

Raptor 2 (sea level variant)
Thrust: 230tf
Specific impulse: 347s
Engine mass: 1630kg
Engine + vehicle-side commodities and hardware mass: 2875kg

Raptor 3 is designed for rapid reuse, eliminating the need for engine heatshields while continuing to increase performance and manufacturability

[Russ Rive @russrive]

The simplification of Raptor 3 is nuts!

[Steve Jurvetson @FutureJurvetson]

Just when you thought it wasn’t possible to make yet another major advance — the latest SpaceX Raptor iteration.

Additive manufacturing internally integrates so many formerly discrete components… Taking “no part is the best part” to the extreme.

Wear woman’s clothing and have buttered scones for T.

[derek guy @dieworkwear]

if you wear T-shirts, you're wearing what used to be women's clothing because the T-shirt started as the top half of the union suit, which was originally women's underwear worn by first-wave feminists who wanted more uncomfortable undergarments

Loved Kings Quest. Been 40 years!

[Ken Williams @caboken]

This video is long - 35 minutes! But, King's Quest fans will be very happy. Roberta wanted to do something special for King's Quest's 40th anniversary. You'll see that half way through the video Roberta thought she was done when I blindsided her with some fun questions. She answered every one of them, including some that I thought she'd make me edit out. Enjoy!
