@tomfgoodwin aka OpenAI training on copyrighted material and figuring “hey we’ll figure this out later”

@tomfgoodwin agree with this, feels like it’s encouraged to fake it til you make it at this point (maybe always was?)

I don’t think there is enough reporting on the idea that in the last 3 years , a standard startup playbook has been to lie, cheat, make things up, scam people , break the law, steal things, lie more and then pass it off as “growth hacking”

one of the best hats I’ve ever seen

@HenryWilliams74 @DadInvest

@BostonLooper @DadInvest Orrr… and I’m just spitballing here, pay attention to your wife every once in a while 🤣

Defcon 3 after I took breakfast ordering into my own hands. Apparently cinnamon raisin toasted with plain cream cheese makes me the worst person on earth.

I find housing policy debates so fascinating because it really is zero sum, if one group benefits another loses. sometimes the loss is simply the absence of a benefit, but indirectly punishes another group (push to eliminate property tax)

@lesabrefomo would be awesome but I think a lot more people would delete tweets

wish there was a historical timeline feature for twitter where you could go back to a specific date and go through the timeline as if it were that day again id love to go back to both the peak bull and bear days to see what the tl was saying with hindsight

That's us! 🌍 The Artemis II crew captured beautiful, high-resolution images of our home planet during their journey to the Moon. As @Astro_Christina put it: "You guys look great."

sim golf claims another victim this morning

@texasgolflore bingo

@BostonLooper good news is she clearly didn’t have the burden of worrying about others. better news is nobody has to worry about her on the weekend.

can she imagine being in her own group. something people fail to realize on the golf course, from professional golf to the local muni, it isn’t all about you out there.

@KylePorterNS Bryson would be hilarious, not for winning itself but for how obnoxious the next 12 months would be “Can I break 50 wearing the green jacket? Like and subscribe”

Who would be the funniest winner next week (and why)?

every parent I met as a kid sounded like this

Direct shot at OpenAI and Anthropic - those IPOs can’t come quick enough

11 straight years of fully guaranteed NFL contracts - his agent should be in the HOF

should be in an apple commercial in the next 12 months imo

what does Xander think about these redemptions???

keep yo bags out of my spy

Apple's Eddy Cue reveals the logic behind charging $0.99 a song when the company launched iTunes Store in 2003, despite the fact that Apple would lose money at that price: "There were two keys to $0.99 that we really believed in, and people didn't see." "Number one is when the price is $0.99, and it's consistent, you never have to think about price." "The second thing was that people could never do that, because at $0.99, if you're charging a credit card, you would lose money. Because credit cards have a fixed fee and a percentage that you pay." "Well, the fixed fee and the percentage you pay on a $0.99 song was like a quarter, and the vast majority of the [rest of] the money went to the labels. So every time we'd sell a song, we'd lose money. Nobody wanted to do that." "What we decided to do is, as we were building this — and it was a huge discussion, because we would lose a ton of money — we said, 'Look, this thing is amazing. You're not going to buy just one song, you're going to buy a lot of songs.'" "'And when you do that, instead of closing the transaction on every single one, why don't we just combine them over a period of time? Let's keep the transaction open for a period of time — let's call it 24 hours, or 8 hours. And everything you buy, we're just going to give you, then we're going to charge you at the end.'" "And that's exactly what happened. Very few transactions were just $0.99. Most of the transactions were multiple dollars. And the fixed fee didn't matter."
