BREAKING: Stanford researchers just published a prompting technique that makes today’s LLMs behave like better versions of themselves. It’s called “prompt ensembling” and it runs 5 variations of the same prompt, then merges the outputs. Here’s how it works 👇

@amarifields_ If I’m being honest, you still have a big advantage over many Indian and Chinese immigrants. We (e.g. Indian and Chinese) often have to grind hard for years just to get a green card. I got mine through EB1-B just 10 months ago.

most founders waste months pitching VCs who were never going to say yes... because their company was never venture-backable to begin with understanding how VCs make money isn't optional. and if your company doesn't fit that math right now... no pitch, no deck, no warm intro fixes it. that's a hard thing to hear. but finding out in month one beats finding out in month nine.

Interesting slide from NVIDIA GTC 2026: - AI natives across auto, robotics, healthcare, search, coding, and customer support. - But no AI native for "security". Wondering, why?

@pitdesi He only defrauded retail investors through SPAC, not his friends. All his friends must have cashed out. Why wouldn’t they fund him again?

LOL Trevor Milton is raising $1B at a $4B valuation for an autonomous jet (consumer and military), says the most wealthy people in the world say “we can trust you now” because of the Trump pardon, and Trump affiliates are helping him. Good luck! wsj.com/business/trevo…

Where are we in the Alien lifecycle of AI agents? 🥚 Eggs 🐙 Facehugger 🫀 Chestburster 👽 Xenomorph My take: - AI agents are already Facehugging SaaS. - The fight now is just about how long SaaS can delay Chestburster.

Recent earnings call, Aneel Bhusri of Workday says startups with AI agents are "parasites" This is what system of record incumbents really think of startups. The war is just beginning. The facts: the user data belongs to the users, not the incumbent software vendor.

@toddsaunders Im in the trades - this is hilariously common now. We hosted a dinner a few weeks ago and it was all plumbing/hvac owners and every single one was actively building stuff for their business.

Most founders monologue. Investors want rapid signal — problem, traction, ask. 15 slides in 8 mins. Then shut up. The meeting is yours to lose.

@hthieblot The toughest part for me to stay optimistic when things aren’t going well. Kids help me cope and give me the energy to keep going.

I'm starting to believe that in the age of AI, building in public will become negative ROI for most builders it used to take effort to copy the playbooks you share 99% never did anything now it's one copy paste into claude away expecting more building to go quiet again

I have so much gratitude to people who wrote extremely complex software character-by-character. It already feels difficult to remember how much effort it really took. Thank you for getting us to this point.

Holy shit... researchers just proved that vibe coding is destroying the internet's visual diversity. University of Washington studied AI-generated apps and found something terrifying: The title? "Interrogating Design Homogenization in Web Vibe Coding." And the findings are devastating.
