Thought you needed to be intelligent to build planes but apparently not. Spirit shut down because Americans are too productive to fly low cost 😂

Hyperline now has a CLI, built for AI agents. MCP has a context bloat problem. CLIs don't. Sonnet 4.6 benchmark: → Simple query: equivalent → Follow-ups: 2x faster → Complex: CLI solves in ~3min, MCP crashes @hyperline/cli" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">npmjs.com/package/@hyper…

Maybe they should keep a human in the loop, this thing hasn’t been able to generate a single answer to my most basic questions this morning

Also, the fee is clearly displayed but the spread/markup on the price isn’t, which reinforces the frustration

A EUR/BTC transaction of 100€ got me ~97,90€ in BTC It discourages small and regular purchase but such a spread vs market price also discourages bigger purchase. Especially on gold, I don’t understand what justifies a 4% fee ? Even more as a premium user.

@Revolut I’m a Ultra member and I wanted to setup a small recurring monthly buy of gold and BTC through your app. Your markup on both exchange rates are just insane, especially as I’m paying 55€/month for Ultra. A EUR/XAU transaction of 100€ got me ~95,90€ in gold.

It's always funny to see Europe haters talk about our tax system when every company solving tax compliance issue is based in the US precisely because the US Sales Tax is the biggest mess ever created. VAT in France for software is 20% for everything by the way, you should be ok

@mitchellh I think the issue is with the bragging and not spending the money wrong. I know really rich people who always fly economy and it's their choice - if they're bragging about it on the internet I'll put them in the same basket as the business bragging guys

@mitchellh It's a tradeoff I'm making, for the company the cost is around $30-40k / year vs if I fly economy. I don't post about it, I don't brag, it's just that I think me travelling regularly and being motivated to do it is worth a lot more than that.

The chest pumping of the current new wave of SV founders puts a bad taste in my mouth. Just saw a pic of a funded teenage founder showing off his intl business class seat. I still flew coach for 15+ intl flights per year while HC was valued over $2B. I don’t want this to sound like “kids these days can’t afford houses cause they buy avo toast.” It’s not that. The price difference of a coach versus biz seat is huge. And I always wanted to set the right precedent. If the founder of the multi bill company is flying coach so can everyone else in the company (we didn’t allow any biz flights until similar times, although I kept flying coach longer). Won’t call him out because I don’t have the full context and maybe I’m wrong here. And like, I don’t want to shame a teenager and be overly dad mode. But it’s not isolated to that one instance, of course. It seems like everyday young founders funded by big names are just trying to outdo each other on wasteful shit.
