@krishnanrohit I think Dispatch is an early preview of what unifying everything under a single meta-agent looks like.

@krishnanrohit Anthropic knows this too. They've mentioned wanting to tie together Claude, Claude Code, and Claude Cowork closer together. From first principles, these shouldn't really be separate products in the long run.

As much as I want Codex and ChatGPT to work together I'm reasonably sure this will fail, for the main reason that this is a pressing problem primarily for OpenAI and not for its users. What its users want is an actual Desktop app that can do work on their own device, not a frankenstein

Guys, SF is a magical city. Today, a beautiful Wednesday, I had a 4:30pm meeting with a friend at a café… it was closed. We walked 10 blocks, every café was closed. Finally found Blue Bottle, it closed at 5:30. Can some YC company please build what SF people actually want?

Want to know if your flight has Starlink? We built a tool for that. Search any flight, and we’ll: - identify the aircraft - check whether that type has Starlink - look up the tail number to confirm that specific aircraft has it. You can also search by route (e.g. SFO → SLC) to see which flights are have Starlink.

The original post about homeowners is a bit off. Normally, the homeowners may be displaced due to increased property taxes, etc. But Prop 13 (for better or worse) protects them from that in California. What the homeowners may lose is the neighborhood ambiance they prefer. But they're not going to be unwillingly displaced. So this is about localized individual benefit pitted against regional benefit. About existing homeowners vs aspiring homeowners and renters.

The argument about displacement is more applicable to renters. Over the long-run, more housing supply lowers rents in aggregate. But for specific renters in the neighborhood now, redevelopment pressure can absolutely push them out. And depending on how neighborhood redevelopment plays out, they may never be able to afford *that* neighborhood again.

@ForsakenCrown @cafedujord What's your point? I'm explaining why class is related to more than net worth, so there's no point arguing about whether these individuals are middle-class or not. That's not the relevant part anyway

@AndyZeGerman Yeah. Sometimes I have my foot over the brakes ready to take over, and then my foot will barely graze the brake accidentally and that’s enough to disengage the system. Which can be risky if not noticed.

I will get a ton of blowback for what I am about to say, but here goes. I have let people use FSD on all of my Teslas since I first got it. Over all the years I have seen the same issue over and over again. When they are unfamiliar, they did not notice when it disengaged. The sound of disengagement is not very loud and can easily be missed, when inexperienced. I am not saying that Tesla was at fault, but it would be nice to have a default setting and clear voice and visual announcement, that FSD has been disengaged. Have said so in my live streams as well. Then there could be an advanced setting where you turn that "off" to basically what it is right now. It can be missed for beginners, as some touch the wheel or tap the brakes, not knowing that they actually disengaged. Again, I said what I said, but if you disagree, I ask you to let some none Tesla drivers drive your car.

UPDATE: Elon Musk says the driver of this Cybertruck disengaged Autopilot four seconds before crashing, which means the driver was manually driving during this entire clip that Fox shared. Elon: "As anyone knows who uses it, that video is not how Autopilot drives."

@ChadMoran This sort of defeats the point of Tesla claiming they don’t rely on map data. Map data should strictly be supplementary in cases like these, and it should have reacted to the posted advisory speed etc like a human driving without maps

My hunch of what happened here is the truck thought its as on the highway below which is "next" to it. Therefor it didn't anticipate the turn.

Here's the original video, which looks like it's actual speed. I used two markers and consistently measured it. It took 75 frames in a 30 FPS video to travel 212.63 ft equating to 57.9 MPH (probably 60). The incident occurred in August of 2025. These are just facts. Yes the driver should have intervened sooner. Yes, FSD was approaching way too fast.

I normally don't bother armchair quarterbacking these situations. But watching the Tesla Stans come into the comments is funny. Elon said Autopilot (FSD?) was disengaged 4s before the impact which if you watch the video looks like it was going way too fast at that point. Am I missing something?

@DevinOlsenn There’s definitely partial blame in this. The driver (for whatever reason) struggled to take over quickly and decisively. Yet FSD did put them in a bad situation and that can’t be denied.

I hate that despite this clarification I know that I will have people in my life come up to me and say "Did you see that video of the cybetruck crashing on FSD?!" The self-driving overlay needs to be baked into dashcam footage by default - it would help so much with this type of misinformation.

@devahaz @laurenfrailey1 Yeah, looks like it was. It is indeed usually Sept or Oct as you said. But I wouldn't be surprised if March ends up the hottest month this year, which would be pretty extraordinary. It's already on track to reach a Sept type of average daily max.

a cohesive sf summer doesn’t actually exist - it’s just whatever 90ish days throughout the year are the warmest

@devahaz @laurenfrailey1 Last September was pretty cool. Only two days in the 80s (we’re on track to beat that this March)
