7/ new task = clean context reusing stale instructions/sessions is how weird behavior starts people call this "agent randomness" but it's usually state leakage treat agents like junior operators: clear task, bounded access, clean handoffs

6/ fourth fix (big one): always run a two-step loop step 1: propose plan step 2: execute only after approval this one change helps avoid a lot of expensive mistakes, especially for nontechnical users

over the past few months i've been helping startups + solo operators roll out agents in real workflows same pattern keeps showing up: agents aren't bad at reasoning humans are bad at operating them most failures are due to context + workflow, not model failures

the best thing the EU has done for tech has been forcing apple to adopt usb-c

Curious how are all the AI BDR companies doing today

@vonderleyen Take your time, there’s no rush.

Following the ongoing situation in Iran, I am convening a special Security College on Monday. For regional security and stability, it is of the utmost importance that there is no further escalation through Iran’s unjustified attacks on partners in the region.

@t_blom + McKinsey, BCG, Deloitte, and every other consulting firm ever

The entire Accenture workforce is about to be outperformed by a 24-year-old who learned Claude Code last Tuesday.

Men are such simple creatures. Checking in on a friend in Dubai after the Iranian bombings.

Oh hell yeah. Been waiting for this, had to hack together a VPS + termius + wispr to use it on the go all this time. Keep up the great work.

I just need you to say 'lgtm'

@stuffyokodraws Haven’t seen PMF like this

One reason vibe coding is so addictive is that you are always *almost* there but not 100% there. The agent implements an amazing feature and got maybe 10% of the thing wrong, and you are like "hey I can fix this if i just prompt it for 5 more mins" And that was 5 hrs ago

@artman @linear Damn. Idk how to feel about this

Happy to share that code reviews are coming to @linear, available in private beta on every plan. Modern code reviews with structural diffing that vastly reduce the number of changed lines in many cases. Review, comment, check previews, get notifications on failed CI check. And finally merge the PR, all from within Linear. Comments are synced two-ways with Github.

@krugermacro As long as Chileans run fiscal and monetary policy as well as government institutions, Argentina will be better off

Breaking: Argentina is exploring the strategic acquisition of Chile to block Chinese influence in the Pacific. In exchange, Chileans will receive Argentine passports, the greatest passport in the world, plus a one-time Prosperity Bonus of 1 million Argentine pesos per capita.

@Djoko_UTD So what would you have him do? Go easier?

Imagine paying 500 dollars for a first row seat and a 7ft dude does this… Servebots aren’t real tennis players and are boring asf.

@nicksortor @EmmanuelMacron This comment is goated

@EmmanuelMacron BREAKING: France surrenders during joint exercise despite no enemies being present

À la demande du Danemark, j’ai décidé que la France participera aux exercices conjoints organisés par le Danemark au Groenland, l’Opération Endurance Arctique. De premiers éléments militaires français sont d'ores et déjà en chemin. D'autres suivront.

@KTmBoyle Spent two years in Miami, and this was truly one of my favorite aspects of the social scene. In SF, in most social settings, the default conversation always gravitates toward what you do for work, which gets boring quickly

A pleasant surprise upon leaving California five years ago was learning just how few people care about your work. If you’ve only ever worked in industry towns, you’re used to work consuming all aspects of your life. Your friends. Your kids’ play dates. Every conversation dominated by industry news or the latest thing. But outside of a few hubs, “I work in technology” or media or entertainment is enough and no one asks too many questions. Especially in Florida, where it’s rude and prying to ask too much about the past. Some people love this newfound freedom. It’s true anonymity and peace. Others have no idea how to handle it and move back within the year.
