What an exciting week and another milestone achieved for our incredible team here at @onepeloton!

@ShooterMcGavin Once upon a time chuck Norris memes were all we had

UPDATE: The Hospital is expected to make a full recovery

@ExxAlerts "You'll move to south Florida and you'll have a new name, you'll go by Palm Bech Pete"

NEW: Man who went viral for looking like Jeffrey Epstein speaks out. "I'm not Jeffrey Epstein, I'm Palm Beach Pete."

Gen. PETRAEUS: The future of warfare—not yet seen in the Gulf—is Ukraine producing 7 million drones per year. Last year they made 3.5 million, enabling 9–10 thousand drones per day. These are still remotely piloted. But autonomous systems are coming, and that means drone swarms. They're already being introduced at mission end. Defending against swarms is really hard—you'll need high-powered microwaves or similar. We're not where we should be, despite what we should have learned from Ukraine for a very long time. They're making software changes every week or two, hardware changes every 2–3 weeks.

We were promised flying cars. Instead we have AI flying dogs

Dear future teammate, I'm not a designer, yet I love design. Since we will build together, I'd like you to know what I believe. I believe design is part art, architecture, and mechanism. Art, because it must be beautiful. Architecture, because it requires a birds eye view. Mechanism, because it must be useful. You'll be responsible for a new interface: a conversational interface that feels like talking to yourself. It should be beautiful & useful, like thought. It should be made with a birds eye view, to span wherever you want to think. Our first product helps people capture thoughts & talk through ideas wherever they are. We have a lot more in store. The potential is sometimes dizzying, and always motivating. I feel the window of time we exist within. We have an opportunity to introduce a new relationship with technology—founded on extension over replacement. I'm thankful to have this opportunity, and to pursue it with many talented and caring people. I'm very excited to build towards it with you.

lol this is awesome

Sandbar is hiring designers, software engineers, hardware engineers, and more. Incredible time to join this team pre launch!

*NYC Product Designers* @sandbar is hiring a Lead Product Designer for Stream. IMO this is one of the most unique/interesting roles out there: own the full-stack design for a novel hardware interaction model and the rich software experience to power it.

@sama And to those who inMailed them endlessly, we salute you 🫡

I have so much gratitude to people who wrote extremely complex software character-by-character. It already feels difficult to remember how much effort it really took. Thank you for getting us to this point.

the biggest AI opportunity right now is mid-market companies ($5M-$50M+ revenue): • too big for cookie-cutter solutions • too small for enterprise consulting • drowning in manual workflows • have budget but zero AI expertise (most companies) they’re stuck with serious cash but frozen by AI paralysis.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ markets open to those with balls & a cold email sequence.

@bestplayeratlas Redoing his bathroom

Oldest Bitcoin whale just dumped $1.24B in BTC. Survived every cycle since 2009. But sells here. Ask yourself why.

Counterintuitive leadership fact: Your best investment is more time with your stars. The people struggling will demand your attention. But if you have a 2x, 3x, or 5x star, helping them be 10-20% better is like adding an employee to the team. Not ruthless, just math.

@FrancisPSantora @shaig First you gotta get the ferry, then hope you get it on time, then 30 minutes to the city, then get on your train to your next destination... so it could be an hour if you live right by the ferry and work in lower manhattan

@shaig I don't understand that. the ferry from the city doesn't take an hour to get to Staten Island.

one hour commute zones to NYC. *excludes LIRR, Metro North. Only include MTA, PATH, NJ Transit

How it started / how it's going ⚬ Distributed inference: multi-device, multi-LLM, sync/async ⚬ Memory & personalization ⚬ Personality ⚬ TTS/STT ⚬ Web search ⚬ Tool use ⚬ Notes & voice editing ⚬ Research platform: latency, synthetic data, evals, simulations AI/ML @sandbar

The Gong CEO told me the secret to billion-dollar companies: "Build a product so good that weak salespeople can sell it. Then build a sales team so good they could sell a weak product. Combine both and you're unstoppable." Most startups only focus on one.

Nice to know recruiters have options if our jobs are automated

Interior designer to electrician: did you get my Slack? Electrician: what is that an app? This made my week.

I was wondering what LinkedIn was missing

Today we announce the launch of @CrusoeAI’s newest factory - 350,000 sqft, 200 employees, 5 production lines and a $200m investment this year into the mass production of Crusoe Spark modular datacenters in CO. Here’s the space before we started demo (now under construction).

@MarkLevineNYC @NYCCouncil I will personally miss the Applebees

Big News: @nyccouncil today approved what will be one of the largest residential buildings in the nation. 395 Flatbush Ave Ext in Downtown Brooklyn will no long be an (ugly) low-rise. It will become a tower with 1,200 homes, 25% of which will be permanently affordable. Made possible by NYC's new high-density zoning rules. Start of a new era. We need much more of this.
