If you’re seeing a bunch of Japanese posts, here are some fun facts: Japan has more daily active users and more time spent on X than any other country in the world. Over two thirds of the country is monthly active on X. X in Japan has one of the highest penetration rates of any social network in history.

@elonmusk The idea that "quarks, leptons, photons" are "the basics of physics" is an artefact of current bureaucratic culture not the actual structure of the subject, nor of the physical world. They are no more basic to physics than chemistry is.

Balaji is a bright guy but he fled the USA and has set his mind totally against our future success. He lives in a world where US is losing and China is winning. This is his fixation. It’s dangerous, and it’s wrong. And this war has embarrassed China, destroyed their 100 cargo planes of war materials and their military ally, and frustrates them. It’s fair to disagree about the attack. But saying that its architects are guilty of any downside is childlike nonsense. They should be proud of their work and their courage to take on this evil. If you’re against the war, do you get credit for the last two decades of literal mass torture and mass rape and repression by this regime, and its terror funding and death around the region? Do you get credit for “supporting” the billions it spends on social media bots and information operations to polarize the US against ourselves, and weaken the west? Do you also get credit for what would have been the next twenty years of that? Are you, Balaji, responsible for that side of it? No? But if you are for it, you get zero credit for fixing any of that, but blamed for ALL the possible downsides? Total BS. The mullahs holding the region hostage shouldn’t get your help to blame others for the damage they do. Geopolitics and war is complex and there are risks on all sides. There is risk in acting, and in not acting. I’m really glad we are taking advantage of the massive innovation and competence gap that exists at this moment, and finally eliminating so much evil. I hope for freedom for the Iranian people and know that the situation is hard and complex, but either way it is good to stop the bad guys and eliminate so many of the worst groups, who have done so much damage, from history. Nobody should get away with what those bastards did for so long; this was long overdue.

I'm going to make some obvious points. (1) Blowing up all the oil infrastructure in the Middle East is an insane idea, and may well result in a global economic crash and humanitarian crisis unrivaled in the lives of those now living. We're talking about the price of everything everywhere rising, from food to gas, at a moment when inflation was already high. All of that will be laid at the feet of the authors of this war. (2) The antebellum status quo of Feb 27, 2026 was just not that bad, but we're unlikely to return to it. Expect indefinite, long-term, ongoing disruptions to everything out of the Middle East. (3) Also assume tech financing crashes for the indefinite future. The genius plan to get the Gulf states caught in the crossfire has incinerated much of the funding for LPs, for datacenters, and for IPOs. Anyone in tech who supported this war may soon learn the meaning of "force majeure" as funding gets yanked. (4) Many capital allocators will instead be allocating much further down Maslow's hierarchy of needs, towards useful basic things like food and energy. (5) It's fortunate that all those progressives yelled about the "climate crisis." Yes, their reasoning about timelines was wrong, and much of the money was wasted in graft, but the result was right: we all need energy independence from the Middle East, pronto. It's also fortunate that Elon and China autistically took climate seriously. Now they're going to need to ship a billion solar panels, electric vehicles, batteries, nuclear power plants, and the like to get everyone off oil, immediately. (6) It's not just an oil and gas problem, of course. It's also a fertilizer problem, and a chemical precursor problem. Maybe some new sources will come online at the new prices, but it takes time to dial stuff up, particularly at this scale, so shortages are almost a certainty. That said, China has actually scaled up coal-to-chemicals[a,c] (C2C), and there's also something more sci-fi called Power-to-X[b] which turns arbitrary power + water + air into hydrocarbons. But all of that will need to get accelerated. I have a background in chemical engineering so may start funding things in this area. (7) Ultimately, this war is going to result in tremendous blame for anyone associated with it. It's a no-win scenario to blow up this much infrastructure for so many people. Simply not worth it for whatever objective they thought they were going to attain. But unless you're actually in a position to stop the madness, the pragmatic thing to do is: scramble to mitigate the fallout to yourself, your business, and your people.

@beffjezos Probabilistic software can run within bounds in a well defined system which is deterministic digital computers. While a system which is non-deterministic, which is also not within bounds, software will require quantum computers.

These are legitimate platform risks, not baseless trash talk. Tech history shows big platforms (Microsoft, Meta) routinely study API/ecosystem usage, spot winners, and integrate similar features to capture value—classic "embrace, extend." OpenAI's terms let them analyze API data for improvements (opt-out for paid tiers), and they've rolled out tools echoing popular dev experiments. Jason's warning is standard VC advice: wrappers lack moats. Diversify stacks or build proprietary layers to mitigate.

Jason Calacanis issues a brutal warning to every developer: “If I were any kind of developer, I would never work with Sam Altman and OpenAI” “This is a warning for anybody dumb enough to use Sam Altman’s OpenAI API” He says Altman is actively studying exactly how you use the API because he wants every single dollar of revenue from the entire ecosystem. No prisoners Sam comes from the Zuckerberg school of business: give people tools, study what they build, and like the Borg, steal every innovation they create Exactly like Bill Gates did at Microsoft - let people build Lotus 1-2-3 then release Excel, let them build WordPerfect and WordStar then release Microsoft Word

Central planners still can't grasp what Hayek understood decades ago — the most sophisticated systems emerge precisely because no bureaucrat is pulling the strings. Language, markets, cities, the internet. All spontaneous orders that no government committee could design if they tried for a thousand years. And yet these same politicians think they can micromanage healthcare, education, and monetary policy. The hubris is breathtaking. But here's the part that really drives them insane: spontaneous order doesn't just work better than their top-down schemes — it makes their entire profession obsolete. No wonder they fight it so hard. When complex coordination happens without their permission, what exactly are we paying them for?
