I fly a lot - this week: Halifax -> Boston -> SF -> Boston -> Halifax.
It’s taken over ten months of experimentation to nail my recovery regime:
- I bought the hype and an eight sleep is actually worth it - I sleep deeper and it helps a lot with the jet lag
- Running as soon as I land / anything that gets the heart rate above 160 for >20mins
- When I’m run down an IV drip to help with hydration - it’s mostly placebo but it’s wild how much it helps.
- To the best of my ability, avoiding terrible plane food / eating well which is a real struggle.
A work in progress for sure

Amazing to see all the success of @jmorgan and @mchiang0610 - what a rocketship they built at @ollama

Big day for Ollama! When we started, open models and the open source AI ecosystem were in their early days with few believers. Our belief in open source has never wavered. With today's fundraising announcement and our 9M+ active builders, we’re ready to scale open models into AI that you can own. All aboard open models! 🧵

@ealeyner yep, likewise...but this is the enterprise AI sputnik moment

If this is true, enterprises are going to look at that Anthropic bill and start getting their open source models ready. Frontier intelligence too expensive to meter is the best thing that ever happened to open-weight models. The constellation of models isn't optional anymore. It's economic survival More models, more scaffolding needed, more startups needed to deliver around it

The battle for enterprise AI independence is just getting started.

Satya said it well: “There is no societal permission for an AI future that eats the intelligence of the companies it’s deployed inside.” Which FDE would you rather have? Forward Deployed Engineering or Forward Deployed Extraction …of your data, workflows, and institutional knowledge. 👏🏻 @Microsoft

End of an Era. Artificial artificial intelligence no longer needed when real AI is decent? Can this mean that my code would finally be retired?

AWS says Mechanical Turk will no longer accept new customers and that it is placing the crowdsourcing service in maintenance, signaling its future retirement (@ssharwood / The Register) (Visit Techmeme dot com for the link and full context!)

@edsim 💯 - Have been seeing this for months from more sophisticated buyers.

GLM 5.2 (like everyone else) but running a dedicated 8xB200 with NVFP4 checkpoint and MTP can easily get to 180-200 tok/sec (running in high effort).
Makes you reconsider what is the actual speed most of us get from GPT 5.5 and Opus 4.8 (around 10 tok/sec-ish most of the time).

1/6 Toronto Tech Week is here.
There are a lot of events this week. These are the ones I told our portfolio founders to prioritize.
English
Amar has been the quiet GOAT of the Toronto ecosystem for many years! Lucky to be able to call @avarma for his advice - he always picks up, cares and dispenses wisdom generously. Thank you for your friendship @avarma and for all you do.
Evan McCann@evansammccann
For years, @avarma has been one of the most important people in Toronto tech without many outside the ecosystem fully understanding why. He helped build Xtreme Labs. Autonomic sold to Ford. Xtreme’s story even brushes up against Tinder. He has been described as “sort of the king of Toronto.” Others put it more bluntly: “What people don’t realize is that he was carrying Toronto and KW tech on his back.” Now, with Mantle, he is building again. My profile:

@edsim Things will only accelerate! More software, more code, more vulnerabilities. The bottleneck is still humans.

Once again the opportunity for cybersecurity only gets bigger - more code, more surface area, more vulnerabilities to fix
Sadly this was disclosed in March so could have been taken care of acc to this post
impulsive@weezerOSINT
Lovable has a mass data breach affecting every project created before november 2025. I made a lovable account today and was able to access another users source code, database credentials, AI chat histories, and customer data are all readable by any free account. nvidia, microsoft, uber, and spotify employees all have accounts. the bug was reported 48 days ago. its not fixed. They marked it as duplicate and left it open.

Feeling like the cost of software development is trending to zero, but the cost of security and operational management is about to skyrocket 🚀

$10-100m per engineer 🤯
swyx@swyx
btw if you can build a category leader open source project in ai engineering right now the market acquihire rate is ~$10-$100m per ai engineer. you do not need to figure out a business model, you do not need GTM, you do not need funding. just build things clankers want.

This is exactly what I wrote about.
Jews are being targeted simply because they are Jewish. Not politics. Not policy. Just identity.
If that doesn’t alarm you, you’re not paying attention. Or you’re choosing not to.

The synagogue I attended as a boy and youth, where I was bar mitzvah'd and received my primary Jewish education, now under gunfire in once-peaceable North York, Ontario.

@edsim The larger the org, the harder it is to adopt to the speed. Human change is a hard problem that moves slow. Small teams with people in the code, have an advantage..
English
A recurring theme from this week’s meetings:
Founders have massively unlocked engineering speed.
Now the org has to keep up.
Product compounds weekly.
Marketing updates nonstop.
Sales is still absorbing last week’s release.
This isn’t instability. It’s acceleration.
Need to pick your battles and prioritize.
Velocity is no longer a code problem. It’s an org design problem

Introducing Oz: the platform to orchestrate agents in the cloud.
Spin up hundreds of agents from your terminal, browser, the API, or your phone. Each agent gets a @docker environment to build, test, and write PRs.
Come back from your lunch break to code that’s ready to merge.

Do you leave your unlocked laptop unattended at a coffee shops?
Yet, this is what we do when we run AI agents in yolo mode..
3Cs is a framework of how to think about AI Agent security: Contain, Curate, Control -> docker.com/blog/the-3cs-a…
