@insiderinvests That is an extra $200/year in interest minus $120/year for the subscription fee. Plus that $200/year is taxable. I'm a fan and investor in $SoFi but I don't see why this is exciting. A good marketing pitch though. I hope it works out for them.

Pope Leo suggested on Friday that Christian political leaders who start wars should go to ​confession and assess whether they are following the teachings ‌of Jesus, without naming any specific leaders or conflicts. For @Reuters reuters.com/world/pope-leo…

@DouglasTodd You're never going to get anywhere near 100% follow through, that's a given. Assume for a moment that 70% actually progress within the next decade. At 2.5 people per unit this would support population growth of 231k. How is that out of line? Feels low actually.

2/2 List of housing unit approvals (entitlements) handed out by municipalities within Metro. Developers are not going to give up these profitable approvals easily. Coquitlam “approves more than sufficient housing,” planner Andrew Merrill said. But “local government has no tools to compel a developer to proceed with construction.” @robshaw @linda_hepner

Given the headline assault of this war thus far was the bombing of an elementary school it's impossible not to recognize the administration's aesthetic as downstream of mass shooter terrorgram cults

@xXshaurizardXx And to be clear, this is a Sonos issue because they are using an mangled version of an out of date standard. It is just that UniFi will (hopefully) now have a way to handle this gracefully.

@xXshaurizardXx Unifi's guidance has historically been to either hardwire none or all of the speakers. It is when you have a mix that SonosNet is used and that is what causes the STP issues and drop outs. I get the sense that enabling "STP Edge" will fix these issues.

@xXshaurizardXx Got it. Yes, I have the same base understanding of STP vs. RSTP and why Sonos is screwing up networks. I'm trying to figure out what the new optimal settings are for UniFi networks to put any remaining Sonos reliability issues to bed once and for all.

@aunder How large is Anthropic's distribution team anyhow? That's the other muscle that is needed.

@aunder Interesting battle over being the centre of gravity with procurement. AWS Marketplace is huge. IMO the largest vendors (aka hyperscalers) are likely to win this unless AI commitments get so large so fast that the Marketplace concept makes sense from a procurement standpoint.

@JoshKale AWS has had Marketplace for a long time now. Will be interesting to see how this works for Claude. A much smaller base in spending commitments but ramping up extremely quickly.

Okay wow Anthropic just figured out how to weaponize the billions in enterprise commitments it has locked up This new marketplace lets companies route their existing Anthropic budget to third-party tools like GitLab, Lovable, Snowflake, Replit, etc... One contract. Many products. Zero new procurement headaches. This could turn into a pretty big moat that has nothing to do with model quality

@levie It is exciting to have this linked context available in theory. What has proven more challenging, at least in my practice so far, has been to easily expose this to Agents. There really needs to be an "API of APIs" to bring this context scope together as one package on command.

@levie Data can be unstructured but it is critical that it is tagged to the context you are working within. For me at Salesforce this has started with Slack channels linked to Accounts in CRM. That provides the critical chain to pull in all the context you need.

Agents will be the biggest users of software. They’ll often need their own computers, identities, file systems, and tools to do their work. As a result, software will increasingly become API-first to be as useful to agents as they are to people. This is a huge opportunity.
Box@Box

Agents need files to keep track of their work, they leverage files as context about the tasks they’re doing, and use them to share back and forth with their human counterparts. @levie spoke with @CNBC about and the importance of agents having their own filesystems.

Ugh just read a Substack article by a lit mag editor that I'm almost certain was edited with AI. The style is so common: * short, punchy sentences * "This, not that" construction. ("It's not a rejection; it's a sign the process is working...") * Things in threes. ("Not a no, not a rejection, not a closed door. A window to something better...") I cannot say it enough: writers & editors, please stop relying on AI to help you edit your stuff. AI strips you of your own voice & makes you sound like a machine. It's utterly depressing to read such pieces from writers and lit mag editors.

$SOFI needs to stay up $18/share to be eligible for S&P 500 inclusion in March. We are teetering on the edge right now.

$SOFI has four hours left to be above $22.7B in market cap or $18 a share for a potential S&P 500 inclusion this March. Granted the odds for a March inclusion were lower than June or September. March 1st is a key date too. It is the date where $SOFI's CEO is eligible to purchase again. If he doesn't purchase Monday. That means they may in possession of a MNPI (Material Nonpublic Information). Which is possible since they mentioned in their Q4 2025 earnings call they were considering another acquisition. It's go time for $SOFI shareholders!
