@unusual_whales When I bought my 3rd house for $84,000 in 1998 that’s what my mortgage rate was. Don’t know why people are complaining.

@PatrickHeizer @TheStalwart If you just look at numbers on sheets you’ll have a very different impression of Baltimore than if you visited. Detroit’s turnaround is probably a better story.

What's happening in Baltimore is slowly suffusing into the American consciousness. It's a genuinely great development that should be receiving more attention.

Just completed my longest ever single day road trip in the Cybertruck. Here are the stats: • 946 miles driven from Fort Lauderdale FL to Richmond VA. • 17.5 hrs (slow due to Florida traffic) • 7 Supercharger stops - total time charging 1hr 53min (avg 16min, longest 23min) • $132.40 in Supercharger fees ($0.14 per mile) • 100% on FSD • WiFi courtesy of Starlink mini Cybertruck is the only vehicle I’d want to try this with. Super easy and comfortable. Kids enjoyed it and were able to watch movies and play computer games against each other thanks to Starlink and the entertainment system.

Nobody has a plan for driver displacement, it is dangerous to the technology industry to let this rip without a plan I beg you people to read what @WillManidis has been posting over the last few months, you are not taking backlash seriously enough

Waymo launched driverless service in its 11th city today — Nashville. With the exception of California, all of Waymo's commercial cities (red dots) are in red states — Arizona, Texas, Florida, Georgia, Tennessee. Come on Blue America, we can do better than this.

@tyleraloevera I worked in tech for half a decade with these very people. Sure, they work like slaves, but they also prey on each other. The greencards become managers and hire an army of indentured servant H1Bs. They don’t value merit and honesty. They are destroying our companies from within

All things considered, PA has the best dining in the world. Zero reservations necessary, even on a Friday night, for tier-1 food. Like you can walk into Daigo and eat sushi that was just flown in from Tsukiji fish market. The equivalent in NYC would require having 3 Resy bots and calling in favors from all over town to get seated at 5pm on a Tuesday.

Chamath Palihapitiya@chamath·
I mentioned this last year on @theallinpod and the crypto bros freaked out. Two things are true about crypto bros: they are extremely technical and extremely belief oriented. Sometimes, though, the latter clouds the former. This paper from Google, though, is quite reasonable and raises some important technical questions. If you believe in AI leading to AGI/ASI in the semi near future, the most obvious honeypot to point an AGI/ASI to is cracking a crypto project like Bitcoin. Essentially becomes free money. The crypto elders should start spending more effort organizing on a timescale that makes crypto quantum resistant / proof in these next few years with a conclusive roadmap.

My take on Delve and experience after 3 audit cycles as a founder -> We've been a decently happy customer of @secureframe the last few years but were considering migrating to @getdelve this January (took some sales calls, got some data in to feel the experience). Here's my take on the situation: I've done 3 audit cycles now where my team (and originally just me) spent weeks every quarter pulling data, filling out spreadsheets, etc to adhere to SOC 2 controls. This was followed by a painful 2-3 month audit period where I felt auditors and the underlying platform were heavily out of sync - auditors would request things that we had already synced/uploaded into the compliance tool, escalatory meetings would happen just to resolve to 'that is ok, sorry we missed it'. The promise of Delve, for me, was AI-native compliance. A platform that didn't just do 80% of the work (controls auto-synced to cloud infra, evidence pulled via vendor APIs) but got us to 95%: where agents did the annoying stuff that the other platforms couldn't handle (auto checking access roles in every vendor, filling out excel sheets first to then to hand over for human verification). Where auditors actually understood the platform holding the evidence they were auditing. I was really onboard with the vision of Delve their team and sales folks pitched me. My gripe with all the existing vendors (@TrustVanta , @DrataHQ, @secureframe ) was this: They built their tech stack and process up up pre-AI. I felt their product roadmap moved very slow, lots of small bugs everywhere and so much silly stuff has to be done manually. One hour my team is orchestrating coding agents and the next hour huddled in a call filling out an Excel sheet - it felt like these existing platforms were 'on the wrong exponential'. We're obviously sticking with Secureframe for now but the above facts still haven't changed. Im certain someone will disrupt the space by achieving the above vision - it's unfortunate that it probably won't be Delve.

@texasrunnerDFW @FoxNews What if, and this is crazy, we make citizenship a requirement for homeowners? So that instead of being a financial asset used by foreigners for money laundering and currency manipulation it’s a place to live.

'THE PROBLEM IS OBVIOUS': New data reveals foreigners purchased over 78,000 U.S. homes in just one year, with nearly half paying all cash. It's a growing trend that researcher Paige Terryberry argues younger Americans and middle-class families can't compete with. "The American Dream is for the American people, and young professionals and middle-class families urgently need it brought within their reach."
