I highly recommend a trip to Montana with the boys. Enough therapy in a long weekend to last years.

@Benioff @salesforce This is a marketing narrative to try to keep Salesforce customers from building their own CRM… which is extremely to do.. and even easier to maintain… and can easily act as their system of record.

Got ZDR? 🚀 The currency of AI is trust.

@BrianRoemmele He’s talking about the 2020 election, not aliens.

First phase official disclosure: Thursday, July 16th, at 9PM EST. We ain’t alone.

@theisaacmed Agreed! We have very low AI spend compared with the value we are creating and the money we are saving.

I don’t understand how people in non tech spend obscene amounts on ai credits. My team makes about 700 videos a month right now, 50-100 thumbnails, and a ton of static assets. We use ai in the backend everywhere. It’s a great context layer. I literally dump every single Gemini notes summary for every meeting into a hub and I know every single thing happening at my org daily. I have a webapp for budget tracking and nailing costs on projects. We have it help with video, from changing out scenes, dubbing, etc. Etc. We spend maybe $ 2k-$3k a month on ai max. And I don’t see it going up dramatically.

A company that deserves to be out of business is @adt. They're legit awful. 1) they do a terrible job of protecting your home. 2) their website to manage your account doesn't work and live chat ends the chat right away. 3) you have to call them to do anything. 4) They continue to bill customers months after account has been canceled.

@Seanfrank No one is going to use Meta to build apps.

I cant believe people doubt meta and the zuck same day we get paid instagram features in the USA and a new frontier coding model PLUS- I think selling excess compute will be a 30 billion business line next year shipping features, launching products. now if he just remembers he sells ads... the business will be bulletproof

My new favorite statement. “Starlink is available on this flight.” Thank you @united and @Starlink!

@packyM What about it interrupting her constantly 😂

The OpenAI Just Be Normal strategy is working beautifully. Bonus points for making the ladies look very smart and sophisticated, and clearly putting them in control of the conversation / interrupting / even being kinda rude with Chat.

I can't tell if I'm talking to an AI bot or there are genuinely really nice people at @Samsung support.

@ritwikpavan @meetcarely Now you can know when your elderly parents are getting it on.

JUST IN: @meetcarely is turning elder care into passive alerts instead of constant check-ins. It’s a screenless wearable that learns normal routines, tracks key health signals, and alerts the family when something seems off. - detects falls, SOS button presses, and safe zone exits - uses 6 biometric sensors to track heart rate, blood oxygen, skin temperature, and motion - learns normal sleep, activity, and daily routines over time - alerts family when patterns change from the usual baseline - works independently without a smartphone, Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth - gets up to 10 days of battery life and charges on the wrist Priced at $249/year with the device included.

The view from my roof at my new house is pretty much 360... I've never seen so many fireworks at once in all directions. Pretty wild.

@APompliano This is awesome man. Congrats!

I was in the Oval Office today for the launch of the Invest America / Trump Accounts initiative. Here are my takeaways: 1. This program may have the most bipartisan support of anything I have ever seen. Everyone, regardless of political party, understands the power of giving young children money to compound over decades. 2. While the government and current administration should get immense credit for the program, there were many private citizens like @altcap, @MichaelDell and others that persistently pursued the idea until it became reality. They quite literally changed the course of millions of lives with this idea. 3. It will quickly become a game of status for people to donate to fund the accounts. The Dell Family gave over $6 billion. SpaceX’s @Gwynne_Shotwell gave more than $300 million today. Brad Gerstner is adopting every child in the state of Indiana to give money to their accounts. The list goes on and on already… 4. Companies will begin making contributions core parts of their perk packages for employees. Corporations like Bank of America, JPMorgan, Robinhood and others have already announced these efforts. 5. The Oval Office is surprisingly small in size, but the historical significance of the room is palpable the second you walk into it. The President called it “the most important room in the world” today and I walked away thinking that was accurate. 6. This idea of Invest America accounts has become a magnet for the world’s most successful people. I saw Larry Fink, David Solomon, Lisa Su, and many other Fortune 500 CEOs in attendance for the Rose Garden lunch. It is hard for an idea to fail when this many people are behind it. 7. The Rose Garden was very nicely done. I had been to the White House before, but never to the Oval Office or the Rose Garden. Both seemed elevated compared to the rest of the White House and surrounding buildings. It sounds like the new ballroom will also be a modern structure that mirrors this elevated approach. 8. The staff and admin team in the White House are generous and genuine. Each person was kind, gracious, and seemed to be at the top of their game. Sometimes you go to places and are disappointed with the let down from your expectations, but this was not the case with the White House team. All professionals doing their job. 9. The media loves Trump way more than they let on publicly. Many of the mainstream hosts and anchors were joking around with him like it is one big club, while simultaneously laughing at his jokes and being much more friendly than I expected. He seems to be good for their business, so it makes sense why the public narrative and private interactions don’t appear to match. 10. I never thought I would see a day where @NYSE and @Nasdaq collaborated on an event like this, including the ringing of both bells by one person at the same time. I guess anything is possible if kids are involved. Overall, this was an awesome experience. I know some people like this administration and some people don’t. I learned from @kevinolearytv to focus on policies, not politicians. And the Invest America accounts are objectively a great idea that will hopefully spread like wildfire in the years to come.

We're live with a big announcement today! Join us!

@CNN Fuck yeah! We did it boys!

Residents of Washington, DC, briefly experienced the worst air quality of any major city in the world, according to a company that ranks pollution globally, as the capital reckoned with the aftermath of a massive, 40-minute Fourth of July fireworks show. cnn.it/3QSNJ44

Agree! I'm 46. I started my first company at 18, and then my current company (Municibid) at 26... I have 28 years of experience operating and growing businesses, still have a solid amount of energy... and now the tools to eliminate bottlenecks in shipping efficiency improvements, features and a related new biz (Surplus(.)com / .ai). Feels like I'm just getting started!

The founder in their 40s with taste and discernment is the new gentleman unicorn founder Because there can be 100x to 1000x of them working at their beck and call via agents and software factories all the time

@aakashgupta Unfollowing. Not sure why you think AI written summaries are a good idea.

The cause of this is dumber than the explosion. San Diego's Big Bay Boom was supposed to run 17 minutes on July 4, 2012: roughly 7,000 shells across four barges and a pier, choreographed to music for 500,000 people around the bay. At 8:55pm, five minutes before showtime, every shell fired in about 15 seconds. Investigators traced it to a backup routine. The control software mashed two data files together and produced a third, corrupted file. That file read as a single instruction: fire everything, immediately. Garden State Fireworks had been running professional shows since 1890. Statue of Liberty centennial, Times Square, the Calgary Olympics. None of that history mattered against one bad file merge. Here's the part every retelling skips. The physical safety engineering held perfectly. Pyrotechnicians rode out 7,000 simultaneous detonations inside metal blast shelters a few feet from the mortars. Zero injuries. The mortar racks were built to survive an accidental mass ignition, and they did. The blast still rumbled through downtown San Diego like an earthquake. A century of hardware discipline, undone in 15 seconds by software. Garden State ran the 2013 show for free as an apology, about $125K of fireworks. The clip resurfaces every July 4th because it's the only footage of what a full show actually contains once you strip out the one ingredient that makes it a show: time.

@aakashgupta Please stop with the AI written posts.

The climbing was the easy part. Getting to the base of that antenna took 14 hours of hiding. Angela Nikolau and Ivan Kuznetsov bought regular tickets to the 86th floor observatory at 9pm the night before. When the building closed, they hid inside. The next morning they slipped through a maintenance hatch on the 103rd floor, the one used to service the water towers, then free-climbed a 200-foot antenna with no harness in 100-degree heat. That antenna transmits the broadcast signal for virtually every TV and radio station in New York. Two people with observatory tickets and patience reached it before anyone noticed. The Netflix detail changes how you should read all of this. These two star in Skywalkers, the 2024 documentary where they free-climbed Merdeka 118, the second tallest building on Earth. Their entire career runs on one flywheel: climb something famous, film everything, let news coverage handle distribution. Look at the production value they got for free on Wednesday. NYPD helicopters circling as camera platforms. 40 officers closing Fifth Avenue. Every local station cutting to live aerials, broadcast through the very antenna they were standing on. Then he proposed on a spire platform, she posted the ring photo from 1,400 feet, and the engagement announcement ran on every network in America. The felony burglary charges are real. So is the math. No ad budget on the planet buys that reel.

@bennyjohnson To be fair… this is LA every year

Flashback to 2020 when Communist California tried to shut down the 4th of July. Patriots responded accordingly. 🇺🇸

I remember this. And will always think it’s hilarious 😂. Thankfully no one was hurt (as far as I understand).

@SahilBloom @ankith_jh Bro.

@ankith_jh Hardly, but working!
