The world's first trillionaire, in one chart.
#1 @elonmusk $1.10T
#2 Larry Page: $292.7B
The gap: $807B — nearly triple Page's entire fortune.

A stack of $100 bills that tall would reach past the Space Station. Fitting, for a @SpaceX IPO.

This is a once-in-human-history moment. Rethink how you spend time. Rethink how you spend money. Whatever you do, don't stay stuck or frozen in the past.

Introducing Claude Opus 4.8: it builds on Opus 4.7 with sharper judgment, more honesty about its own progress, and the ability to work independently for longer than its predecessors.

Available today at the same price.

Anthropic is getting back all the gems! Have fun Andrej! @karpathy

[Andrej Karpathy @karpathy]

Personal update: I've joined Anthropic. I think the next few years at the frontier of LLMs will be especially formative. I am very excited to join the team here and get back to R&D. I remain deeply passionate about education and plan to resume my work on it in time.

[Vivek Wisdom @thevivekwisdom]

@akshay_pachaar Going deep on every line of that list I added to.

13 deep dives. Two a week. Six weeks.

The harness, the evals, the routing, the KV cache, the cost attribution, the inference internals.

The first one drops on Tuesday. Join here - https://t.co/BaYkZLKN6m

[Vivek Wisdom @thevivekwisdom]

@akshay_pachaar I will add these two too -
- Context engineering & retrieval quality
- Latency & throughput engineering (TTFT, ITL, batching, streaming)

@walkojas Let's Go!

@supabase editing my claude.md does that count?

[Vivek Wisdom @thevivekwisdom]

@adahstwt I looked for .com GoDaddy has 1 RS 1sr year but 3 year contract - total with taxes - 3.1k but for cloudflare it came out to be 2.8k - and you get additional security and services with cloudflare.

Full writeup with the honest numbers, the hooks section, and what I'd skip entirely:

Two weeks of Claude Code on a fresh account.

5.4M tokens. No bill shock.

I burned millions on a previous account before I understood how agentic coding costs actually work.

This thread is what I'd do differently. 🧵

[Vivek Wisdom @thevivekwisdom]

If I were starting Claude Code tomorrow:

1. Defaults: Sonnet 4.6, .claudeignore, tiny CLAUDE.md, /cost reflex
2. Pick one tool by symptom — not by Reddit hype
3. Measure for a week before adding the next
4. Two hooks: SessionStart + SessionEnd

[Vivek Wisdom @thevivekwisdom]

A year ago, picking an open-source LLM meant settling for lower quality. In May 2026, that's not true anymore. The real question now is which open model fits your work — not whether open models are good enough.
