His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed : I personally hope that our residents in the UAE We make them feel that this is their second homeland We can't compensate them in their first homeland ، But this is their second home - That's why we found residents standing with the UAE at this time as if they were their country 🇦🇪

Iran's attacks on the UAE have revealed a nation whose resilience is built on diversity - Monocle monocle.com/affairs/uae-re…

Marc Andreessen believes that true innovators share 5 specific personality traits that allow them to do groundbreaking work. First, they have high openness, so they are always ready to hear new ideas from any field. But being open is not enough if you never build anything, so they also need high conscientiousness to work hard for many years. It is actually quite rare to find both traits in 1 person because they usually contradict each other. These people are also disagreeable so they do not quit when others call their ideas stupid. To tie it all together, they need a high Intelligence Quotient to handle information and low neuroticism so they do not break under the pressure. --- Video from 'Andrew Huberman' (@hubermanlab ) YT channel (link in comment)

Look ma I made it

The UAE shows how diversity can actually be a real strength when it’s built on merit, order, and mutual respect rather than quotas or handouts. People from over 200 nationalities live and work here, and the system is pretty straightforward: you earn your place through skills, jobs, investment, or real talent. It naturally pulls in high-caliber people, like builders, creators, and innovators. They’re people who want to build something big, both for themselves and for others. Some might call it a concentration of elite human capital. I call it a concentration of the human spirit of pioneering. Keep in mind, the UAE has entire cities that were built on sand. Impossible architectures made possible through the Will to Power. What keeps everything running smoothly is the strong focus on law and order. The UAE consistently ranks as the safest place on Earth—ahead of places like Switzerland, Singapore, Qatar, Taiwan, and others. Violent crime and even minor issues are rare thanks to clear laws, efficient enforcement, and zero tolerance for nonsense. Everyone knows the expectations: follow the rules, take personal responsibility, and contribute positively. That shared sense of accountability and civic duty cuts through any potential conflict. And here’s the key part—there’s almost no resentment bubbling up. Instead, you see aspiration everywhere. People come here to level up, not complain. Whether it’s expats grinding for the next promotion or locals collaborating on massive projects, the UAE is about creating a truly progressive community everyone wants to live in and be a part of, including settling down and starting a family. In workplaces, neighborhoods, and daily life, the mix of cultures actually drives progress rather than causing friction—because the foundation is excellence, security, and respect. It works: diversity fueled by meritocracy and enforced fairness creates a high-energy, forward-looking society. I wouldn’t want to live anywhere else.

Betting against the UAE means betting against the “most connected commercial platform between Europe and Asia, backed by the largest concentration of sovereign capital on Earth.” The UAE is not responding to this crisis with improvisation. It is deploying the institutional depth it has spent 50 years building. semafor.com/article/03/17/…

this is the next $100B opportunity in ai , most will miss it's harness engineering what this agentic engineer reveals is insane >The model is almost irrelevant. The harness is everything >every failure is a signal about what the environment needs. >when agent throughput far exceeds human attention, corrections are cheap and waiting is expensive most people will ignore and bookmark. be different.

A Claude Code engineer just dropped an insanely valuable article on skills. Anthropic cataloged every agentic skill type worth building, how to structure them, the mistakes that waste your time, and the best ways to share them. Most will never even read this. Do not be them.

Using Skills well is a skill issue. I didn't quite realize how much until I wrote this, the best can completely transform how your team works.

Uber founder Travis Kalanick just identified the sovereign monopoly of the physical AI era. The software-only era is over. The next multi-trillion-dollar monopoly requires commanding the entire physical reality of the board. Kalanick: “I like to break down the physical AI stack. Includes not just computation, physical AI models, all the things you think of. What about land? Development? That should be in that stack. What about chemistry? That needs to be in the stack. Manufacturing needs to be in the stack.” Building a neural network is no longer enough. You have to physically manufacture the shell it lives in. You can’t dominate the physical universe with code alone. The winners are vertically integrating the entire atom-based supply chain. Your AI company doesn’t own the land, the chemical refinement, and the heavy manufacturing? You don’t own the stack. You’re renting space on someone else’s physical grid. Kalanick: “When you look at the stack, you’re like, ‘Damn, Tesla’s got this shit.’ They are the Google of this era.” Every decade produces a single algorithmic apex predator that captures the board. 90s: Microsoft. 2000s: Google. 2010s: Uber. Now: Tesla. Kalanick: “In the 2000s, if you were doing a startup, the first question you would get is, ‘Why isn’t Google gonna kill you?’” The sovereign entity doesn’t just compete. It creates an environment where your survival is mathematically impossible. Building a robotics or physical AI company today? If you don’t have a physics-based answer for why Tesla won’t crush you while optimizing their own supply chain, your execution loop is already dead. Kalanick: “They’re not even gonna know that they killed you.” The most dangerous force on the board is not the competitor who wants to destroy you. It’s the engine so massive it deletes your entire business model by accident. When a hyper-scaled operator controls the chemistry, the manufacturing, the land, and the compute, their velocity flattens everything in their path. They don’t need to target your startup. Routine optimization of their physical execution grid will wipe you out as collateral damage. The only way to survive is to build something so fundamentally unique it sits completely outside the blast radius. Because Tesla isn’t competing in the physical AI space. They already own it.

here comes my ~10 mins video to give the foundational explanations of local vs cloud, unified memory vs gpus & dense vs moe its a raw video, just edited it a bit for the edges to look good kinda. feel free to give feedbacks & hopefully it'll be useful for some of you youtube.com/watch?v=7Kmlly…

however things go, not only i'll stay in the united arab emirates but i'll give you 100% of my brain and manpower to help it build and thrive. this is home. for now and for the future.

i'll share an interesting glimpse of satellite imagery world. a lot of governments, if not all, go through non-governmental providers and third parties, like @sbreakintl, and request tasking from them because they can't rely only on their satellites. either because they need a lot of collection, or they don't have an important constellation, or even the quality of theirs are shitter (lets imagine they only have >1m/px, but they can order 30cm/px from commercial providers). this is where something very unique take place: counter intelligence. when we see, let say, chinese satellites, suddenly aggressively tasking over gulf countries, you know the chances that those orders are coming from a western company or government are pretty low. and it gives you a good idea of what the enemy is potentially looking at.

I am coding a lot, GStack is helping me do it, but also I want you to know I was stranded in Austin the last 24 hours due to weather, and also last week my mom was in the hospital and not too lucid for most of it, so I was coding by her bedside too. She's ok now and I just visited her at home and set up her medication. I do have a full time busy job, and is it really possible for a CEO to be coding all the time? Frankly, I think it will have to be. The CEO has to set the future of the company. All companies will need to adapt to a faster world and do more. Boil the ocean. It's not about doing less and cheaper. It's about doing more and making 10x better products and services. Is 16k LOC/day sustainable for me? We're going to find out if I can manage to get to L8 software factory. I have not done it yet. But you can tell the models are about to get much much better. L8 is barely possible today, and I think I'm close. But everyone will be there soon. I want to be one of the people who helps all of you do it with me.

@CardilloSamuel 😂

i've been spending a lot of time unfucking what consultants are doing. having calls with companies to explain them that claude isn't the solution to everything, especially in an enterprise setup. the pros, the cons, the security aspect of it, ... seems like "ai experts" are just going doors to doors and giving claude randomly. "here is an openclaw, here is claude, do everything" which is literally not only wrong but also absolutely shitty. if your company needs a 30 mins talk about ai, let me know, i am happy to hop in a call with your execs/employees/whatever for free and just give a basic initiation talk: local vs cloud, security & data privatisation, tailored ai solutions based on specific use cases etc...

Watch this

@martindonadieu @askOkara Yeah the same.
