@ruima is youth unemployment still a thing? if yes, that's a pretty small window for peak employableness

I think the severe ageism in China in general (35 years old is generally where you’re actively discriminated against for being “too old”) is under appreciated by folks outside of China So it’s not just that young people tend to sleep in because no kids and all, but that when you actively weed out older people you can sustain these hours more easily And frankly many of the older management levels I know interact so little with their kids they might as well be living like a 25 year old anyways Results in lots of unintended and IMO not great consequences at the nuclear family level, even if you can stay employed lol

Observations about Chinese AI work culture: 1. Many arrive at work late (11 am) and work until late at night (11 pm). 2. Due to the schedule above, many employees are young. Hard for parents to sustain the same schedule. 3. Everyone at these companies is using the best US AI tools like Claude Code via VPN. VPN is very common even for folks not working in tech. 4. Younger generation doesn’t really drink, smoke, or party much. Many just work all the time and order food and boba delivery to office. 5. Government is very supportive of AI startups including cities competing for the best AI founders to start companies locally. Beijing seems to be main AI hub. 6. Youth employment is still bad so gov is also encouraging OPC (one person companies) via subsidies and incentives. Would love to hear other people’s perspectives on the above.

All aggregators had their payouts reduced to 60% this cycle. We will add another 20% deduction in the next cycle. It became abundantly clear: flooding the timeline with 100 stolen reposts and clickbait everyday crowded-out real creators and hurt new author growth. The next step is to assign a permanent deduction to habitual bait posters who use “🚨BREAKING”on every post. X will never infringe on speech or reach—but we will not compensate for manipulation of the program or our users.

Dom Lucre said he posted 100 times in a week. Now that the money’s gone, so are the stolen clips every 15 minutes. Funny how fast “content creators” disappear when the $ do. Imagine if monetization disappeared entirely—this platform would look very different overnight.

@bgurley @typesfast why not undercut Uber on pricing and take over the base load, and let Uber be peak load?

@typesfast Nope. Peak to trough is 4x each day. Way more economic to skim in the 25% penetration range.

Why does Waymo spread their cars across dozens of cities? They should completely saturate one city til they match Uber’s pick up times. I assume they’re trying to lose because winning in self-driving means putting too many people out of work, making Google look like a villain.

It’s cute that we think governments will competently fix potholes if only they knew where they were.
Sawyer Merritt@SawyerMerritt

NEWS: Waymo and Waze have announced a partnership to help cities detect and repair potholes faster by providing data from their autonomous fleet. The pilot will launch in these cities first: • San Francisco Bay Area • Los Angeles • Phoenix • Austin • Atlanta "The pilot program uses Waymo’s perception and physical feedback systems to detect and provide up-to-date information on potholes where Waymo operates. The data will be available to cities and state Departments of Transportation through the free-to-use Waze for Cities platform alongside user-reported pothole information, giving officials an additional view of surface street and highway conditions that enables them to more efficiently and effectively fill potholes. The data will also be visible to Waze users in the cities where Waymo operates, keeping road users safe by alerting them as they approach a pothole. Like other on-road features reportable in the Waze app, users will be able to verify the Waymo-identified potholes, increasing the data’s accuracy. Waymo has already identified approximately 500 potholes. Over time, we’ll expand this partnership to more cities we serve, including those with winter weather and harsh freeze-thaw cycles that exacerbate the pothole problem."

@jason@Jason·
The NY Times always buries its corrections, and they never explain what they updated — which is why folks don’t trust you @NYTimesPR Here, the editor's note is hidden at the bottom, and certainly not shared here on X …. and we could only figure out the updates if we had the original story saved and we redlined it — no one will take the time to do that. Those are the dirty tricks the NYT always uses — obscure your mistakes! Editors’ Note: April 9, 2026 After this article was published, many readers noted that Medvi was facing legal and regulatory actions for its business practices. Our piece should have included that information to give readers a fuller picture of the scrutiny that the company was facing. We have updated the article to note a warning letter from the F.D.A. and a pending class action lawsuit accusing Medvi of violating California’s anti-spam law.
NYTimes Communications@NYTimesPR

Last week we published reporting about a telehealth start-up, and received feedback from readers on it. Our article has been updated and we have added an editors' note. nytimes.com/2026/04/02/tec…

@DirtyTesLa Tesla still needs to get approval for supervised FSD in markets like China and Europe, any improvements in driver monitor accuracy can help with the regulators there

My least favorite upcoming release note "Improve driver monitoring system sensitivity with better eye gaze tracking, eye wear handling, and higher accuracy in variable lighting conditions." Why do we need that?

Custom orders of the Tesla Model S & X have come to an end. All that’s left are some in inventory. We will have an official ceremony to mark the ending of an era. I love those cars. This was me at production launch 14 years ago:
