@jspujji Thank god for your call volume at GS. I would note that there were plenty of experts on digital marketing but you guys were just so much better at communicating with the buy side that you blew everyone else out of the water.

**FYI: this was cleared with Goldman compliance and my boss had no problem with me leveraging resources that were already paid for...

So we told them everything we knew, and second lightbulb went off...I immediately call GLG HQ and say... “Hey GLG! I'm an expert in digital mktg. Will you pay me $500/hr to consult with hedge funds?” And they're like "YEAH, because we have no idea what these companies do."

@alexqarbuckle Amazing NE deep cut

John Mulaney getting on stage and mercilessly mocking everyone at Salesforce’s Dreamforce conference is one of the funniest things I’ve ever read

Need a good code name for an event we are planning early next year… Seeking ridiculously stupid names… Go…

Holybshit my phone started screaming while I was driving about this alert and I clicked on it and it opened a freaking tweet what the hell

12 Victorians were slated for destruction. Instead they went on a journey across S.F. to new homes. So many cool details & photos in today's column, about an @SFHeritage preservation victory and "the biggest moving job in the city's history" 🛻🏠🏡🏠💨 sfchronicle.com/totalsf/articl…

@NateSilver538 It's a better product. Doesn't get enough attention.

n=1 and obviously would need way more data to see how it handles edge-case situations, but honestly felt like a smoother ride than 95% human drivers, maybe a little more conservative than humans in some spots but also handled situations like jaywalkers pretty intuitively.

OK this is way cooler than I expected.

A lot of focus currently on how we can scale datasets *up* for the next set of frontier LLMs. For enterprise AI: my money is on scaling *down*. Smaller, focused datasets for smaller, task-specific models that perform more accurately & efficiently on use cases w/ measurable ROI.

@JamesFallows I think it's a function of regulation right? The FDA approval is only for moderate-severe cases?
