SaaS AI death spiral: Price hikes bc they can no longer rely on future sub revenue & they need a war chest. Max monetization of lock-in ASAP. Higher prices = higher incentive to replace now-commoditized systems. More competitors means more pressure, which means higher prices.

@AnthropicAI just got me excited by crediting $1000 (expiring 11/18) to allow me to use Claude Code on the web. So far, I've only been able to spend $5 in hours because it just hangs and spins and won't actually take any action. What's the point if it won't actually code for me?

Result: Gemini can only analyze your inbox. It refuses to call labels anything but "folders". Repeatedly says "I can't do that." I feel like Claude or ChatGPT would crush this task if I could get it the access to my data.

Google Gemini is worse than useless. It's a time and attention sink. Use Case: I dump all my property invoices & receipts into a Gmail label over the course of the year. Doing my taxes, I asked Gemini to dedupe and figure out who I had actually paid, how much, on what day.

Prediction: The much vaunted "Great Wealth Transfer" from the Boomers to their heirs will instead be from Boomers to AI-enabled longevity startups. A Boomer boot stepping on a human face, forever.

@JordanHedberg I wonder if a slow unwinding of NIMBYism is in the cards. Renters have less to lose by having their property value diluted by higher density, and owners of rental units are not as opposed to development (because they are often developers).

The second, third, and fourth order effects of record low mortgage rates are going to be bouncing wildly for decades The golden handcuffs of low mortgages will squeeze inventory, followed by the largest housing glut in history History jumps, not crawls as NNT would say

Is it cheaper to rent or buy property? From @TheEconomist By our calculations, for 89% of Americans renting a two-bedroom dwelling is now cheaper than buying a comparable property. Three years ago the figure was 16%. economist.com/graphic-detail…

@terronk @nickarner If you can get me over the whole "else" part of "something else", that would really give me a leg up on the rest.

My handy guide “How to Talk to Your Family about OpenAI this Thanksgiving,” will include this question and how to answer it.

@bdarfler Took me a long time to grok that stress tolerance is the limiting factor on productivity. GTD life hacks fit more into the same container. Stress tolerance IS the container. And the limiting factor on stress tolerance adaptation appears to be growth mindset (or lack thereof)

While I love nerding out on what app or which fountain pen, the reality is that productivity is so much more. And yes, including your physical, mental, and emotional fitness. buff.ly/2EAIfj5

All the (supposedly successful) influencers you have access to appear to have gotten there by going around the system, not up through it.

Why go to work at all if you've literally never met a person who went from your level to a higher level that you can aspire to? Management, the usual first step up, is positioned as selling out, and leads you further into the rigged system.

Thinking this morning about whether the continuing labor crunch, with people not returning to work post-Covid, was actually the emergence of a long-simmering malaise that's ultimately driven by decoupling of work from socio-economic mobility

@terronk Celebration, FL = 25 years to 12k people. My one anecdotal account from a childhood friend is that it works pretty well.

I randomly figured out that the credits sequence for "Succession" and the 90's Michael Douglas vehicle "The Game" are eerily similar and I don't know what to do about it. I synced up the two around a very similar shot about 50 seconds in... youtubemultiplier.com/64e8d50bb6b93-…

@JustADude404 @chrisfitkin Don’t pay attention to org chart and politics, listen to your customers, know your product inside out, listen to what engineers tell you. Don’t be dick. Don’t try to become a CPO. Read “Managing Design Factory”. Get lucky so @richarmstrong can teach you the rest.
