All 5-hour limits for agents need to go away.

Super disruptive to meaningful work. As soon as Codex got rid of it, it became painfully obvious.

I don't care what it does to compute allocation and inference management. Everyone needs to figure it out.

@PodsiadlyP15591 @THEONLYMaxPaine @TheStalwart Inaccurate in a variety of ways.

But you're also a little too opinionated in *local* ways about Mamdani and NYC nuances such that I disbelieve your stated motivation.

And/or think your motivation is disconnected from your strategy in a disingenuous way.

[Sherveen Mashayekhi @Sherveen]

@PodsiadlyP15591 @THEONLYMaxPaine @TheStalwart You can have an opinion, but I think it's important to mark your opinion to all the reasons you might have it.

In this case, I'm the New Yorker, and you're full of shit. :)

[Sherveen Mashayekhi @Sherveen]

@_sun_yi Bad sleeping habits and an addiction to X. Also, it's been like, 6 years.

For the past several months, I've had Codex dreaming across my devices, file systems, logs, & accounts.

(main Orchestrator + many dreamer subthreads)

It was immediately useful and interesting, but also paying off 10x now that there's a huge corpus of dreams to work off of.

[Sherveen Mashayekhi @Sherveen]

@TheStalwart It's also still loaded up with bad actors, downsides, and incentive problems, as useful as the quantification might be.

[Sherveen Mashayekhi @Sherveen]

@THEONLYMaxPaine @TheStalwart Certainly mayors work off of what came before them -- but that's true in a way that doesn't support your vibe.

And citation needed re: Ezra and Derek.

[Sherveen Mashayekhi @Sherveen]

@THEONLYMaxPaine @TheStalwart Ezra and Derek put out great work there, but they can only do so much. In fact, I'd argue the person who has most/best adopted Abundance's lessons is Mamdani.

[Sherveen Mashayekhi @Sherveen]

@OIThirty10 All good, thanks for apologizing.

[Sherveen Mashayekhi @Sherveen]

@OIThirty10 I... am critiquing the obsession with him.
Please learn how to read.

I just cannot imagine that painting Grok branding over Cursor stuff is good for internal or external Cursor culture.

This acquisition was always going to curse everything Cursor does moving forward, but I somehow didn't expect them to fumble the straddle this early.

This will be the AI product of 2026.

Been using Grok Bot religiously for a few weeks, both at work and personally. Easy to set up and delightful as a daily driver.

What blew me away most was how fast it spread internally, never seen anything like it.

Take it for a spin:

[Sherveen Mashayekhi @Sherveen]

Wait, incredibly based framing alert.

[Luke Metro @luke_metro]

I get why many VC/exec types like to go on anti-doomer rants

but the EA/xrisk people both accurately predicted the future and built it themselves in the same time period when the rest of tech was shilling crypto scams

that's just a hard credibility gap to close

[Sherveen Mashayekhi @Sherveen]

@thekitze I'm subscribed to everything for testing purposes, so I go back and try it for a quick result every few days.

Surprising how far it's regressed -- the steering, tools, etc. make it incredibly lazy, answers are superficial, hallucinates greater than a model's natural rate, etc.

[Sherveen Mashayekhi @Sherveen]

@charles_maddock lmao

[Sherveen Mashayekhi @Sherveen]

@lewiscarhart Stupid.

[Franklin Leonard @franklinleonard]

I…. think I want to hang out with @AbdulElSayed’s grandparents.

I've been to Mackinac Island.

This is something only deeply-conservative and 'old'-minded people will care about. It is tremendously overrated to any modern mind.

[Adam Wren @adamwren]

Opening salvo of Michigan Senate race is just as everyone predicted: a referendum on Mackinac Island.
