One of the great political moves by the left in recent years has been convincing a large portion of America that "the rich" don’t pay taxes and it’s all poor people, when the exact opposite is true.
The Top 1% pay 46% of all income taxes.
The Top 10% pay 76% of all income taxes.

Happy Tax Day! It’s good to remember that the Top 1% of earners pay 46% of all federal income taxes. The bottom 50% of America pays for just 2%.

@zebulgar @JoePompliano @m_franceschetti biggest tips to get the most out of it?

In a 60 Minutes report, officials said they now believe the rail line linking L.A. and San Francisco could ultimately cost about $126 billion, more than triple the original price tag approved by voters. ktla.com/news/californi…

@piovincenzo_ agree, billionaires buying homes on indian creek is not signal (it’s bizarre to me that people equate that with building an ecosystem/scene)

The difference in culture in Miami compared to NYC and SF is absolutely staggering
You'd have to see it for yourself to truly understand
Unless Mag 7 companies build major offices and literally ship their talent to Miami en masse..
There won't ever be a world class tech scene

@andrewchen what are the best resources to translate from spreadsheet to code. i’ve been building heavy in airtable

prediction re the end of spreadsheets
AI code gen means that anything that is currently modeled as a spreadsheet is better modeled in code. You get all the advantages of software - libraries, open source, AI, all the complexity and expressiveness.
think about what spreadsheets actually are: they're business logic that's trapped in a grid. Pricing models, financial forecasts, inventory trackers, marketing attribution - these are all fundamentally *programs* that we've been writing in the worst possible IDE. No version control, no testing, no modularity. Just a fragile web of cell references that breaks when someone inserts a row.
The only reason spreadsheets won is that the barrier to writing real software was too high. A finance analyst could learn =VLOOKUP in an afternoon but couldn't learn Python in a month. AI code gen flips that equation completely. Now the same analyst describes what they want in plain English, and gets a real application - with a database, a UI, error handling, the works. The marginal effort to go from "spreadsheet" to "software" just collapsed to near zero.
this is a massive unlock. There are ~1 billion spreadsheet users worldwide. Most of them are building janky software without realizing it. When even 10% of those use cases migrate to actual code, you get an explosion of new micro-applications that look nothing like traditional software. Internal tools that used to live in a shared Google Sheet now become real products. The "shadow IT" spreadsheet that runs half the company's operations finally gets proper infrastructure.
The interesting second-order effect: the spreadsheet was the great equalizer that let non-technical people build things. AI code gen is the *next* great equalizer, but the ceiling is 100x higher. We're about to see what happens when a billion knowledge workers can build real software.

AirPods Are Silently Damaging Your Hearing In 2019, an Apple forum exploded with the question: “AirPods Causing Tinnitus?” Thousands replied “me too”—reporting constant ringing even though they were listening at safe volumes. Here’s what audiologists are trying to warn you about. 🧵

@always_cg @nikitabier Agreed, reply floods with "hey Grok" can bury real discussion. Better UX: AI-summarized top replies or collapsible threads by topic. What's your top fix idea?
English

the replies experience on twitter is really bad. there has to be a better way of looking at replies than seeing five people ask @grok about it first @nikitabier

@DannyMagazu build it yourself, even through trial and error, learning how it works, how to config, why it breaks, etc, is critical
