@chamath Agree! Also though, the energy efficiency of ASICs add another variable to the cost optimization problem.

The big problem with this graph is that as AI gets reduced to computation power, it further gets reduced to electricity to power the data centers that house the computation. The US is still ahead in model sophistication and quality but we are way behind on electricity generation which could catch up with us. Need to pay close attention to this and make sure we incentivize every form of electricity generation, storage, transmission and distribution.

@SMB_Attorney Tech in SF is insane hustle.

Is there any city in America that hustles harder and has deeper pockets than Dallas?

@JessePeltan Even worse plan: use up energy to make currency. Now the energy is gone.

Energy would make a terrible currency.

@garrytan Specs are the new code: youtube.com/watch?v=8rABwK…

Absolutely incredible

@DavidSacks Issac Asimov did imagine this!

Imagine you had a humanoid robot. You could teach it to do anything. When it recharged, it could upload its learnings (on an anonymized basis) to all the other robots. It could be the most powerful data network effect in history.

@LukynkaCze @RhysSullivan Hard disagree. It used to just be a list of your repos.

incredible how pretty much the entire github homepage is useless

@growing_daniel @jenny____r Facebook was so fun in 2006.

@jenny____r I’ll tell my kids about how good the apple ecosystem was in 2018

Watching apple software get noticeably worse and no one there seems capable of fixing it

@growing_daniel You have to start over on software. The industry is so new that people don't quite get this yet. We need to do tech LBOs where we rewrite apps, buy the companies, replace bad with good, and move on.

@supersean415 @JessePeltan Oil is sunlight, just from the past. We should use the sun we have now.

@JessePeltan I think the analogy is wrong. Panels have a finite lifecycle that can be shorter than the oil well's, get damaged and need replacement. They correlate to an oil well PUMP. Oil correlates to sunlight

Buying solar panels is not like buying oil. It's like buying an oil well. Sunlight is an oilfield that never runs out. With solar, storage, and EVs, everybody can have their own oil well, oil refinery, and gas station at their own home.

Stop using protocol buffers in Go people.

@jasminericegirl ...and then making people you can annoy with bad jokes.

marriage is really just about finding someone to be silly and goofy with forever

@Jason @ezraklein @LHSummers @chamath @DavidSacks I know you all hated it haha, but that tariff debate was EXACTLY what we need more of from media.

@thdxr File paths should not be code.

i tried to use nextjs today and i died

Of all the things I would unteach CS Grads right now, Big O would be at the top of my list. Stack vs. Heap allocation and memory paging matter far more in 99.9% of programs.

@bryan_johnson Ever read "The Abolition of Man"?

don’t die now starts before birth

@Noahpinion We might need to reverse the arrow in our minds on self-medication. The drugs are also causing the mental illness.

I hate ketamine

@WarrenInTheBuff b2b works in large part because business customers have VC investment capital to spend. How is VC capital going to pipe into consumer balance sheets?

welcome aboard, gentlemen

@ibilalkayy OMG, I literally have a personal budgeting project on my computer that I called "flow". It was the precursor to my current startup.
