@CultureCrave Was going see it again in IMAX tonight but something came up

Chris Miller says 'Project Hail Mary' won't be streaming 'anytime soon' 🎞️ • The film is back in IMAX and just had its theatrical run extended • Movie has already grossed over $500M

@ZachWarunek @zeroxjackson Tone of voice is largely how humans communicate emotion

@zeroxjackson I wish the models could understand audio modality natively so it understands my tone when I’m yelling at it

Speaking is faster than typing and reading is faster than listening. Speech to text is the ideal format, providing the most efficient medium for both the reader and writer.

@maxlugavere Another benefit: more energy on meaningful tasks

Eating the same meals on repeat was associated with 40% greater weight loss.

A strong signal for Tesla: When Robotaxi first launched in Austin, there was a human safety monitor onboard (usually in the passenger seat). On day one in Dallas? No safety monitor at all. Fully unsupervised right from the start. This isn’t just a new city rollout. It’s expansion with higher confidence

Unsupervised Robotaxi in Dallas, TX 🤠

@InnovatingCoin Cool. At the corner of Preston / Northwest HW

@CarawayDJ @SawyerMerritt Ya

@SawyerMerritt Do we know if they had to drive around with their validation vehicles beforehand? IMHO, being able to deploy without any prior validation will be the signal that unsupervised FSD is coming for all soon…assuming the hardware is truly the same.

The fact the Tesla is launching Unsupervised Robotaxi right off the bat in Houston and Dallas makes me more bullish for the speed of the Cybercab rollout. I was expecting the Robotaxi rides in new cities to initially only be offered with safety monitors. Exciting times!

@AutismCapital Trump is retardmaxxing. LFG x.com/SchrodingrsBra…

Trump makes a joke about taking anxiety drugs here saying “I don’t have time to be depressed.” There’s actually a lot of wisdom in that. Anxiety/depression can often be a symptom of inaction/lack of purpose. When you’re busy moving, it can burn off.

@AdamMGrant Makes sense

The books you love are a window into your personality. •Mystery & self-improvement attract conscientious people •Sci-fi, psychology, philosophy draw open-minded people •Memoir & horror appeal to neurotic people Reading doesn't just shape our views. It reveals what we're like.

The benefits of reading a book instead of phone scrolling: feeling energized instead of mentally fried. Phone scrolling = tiring Book reading = energizing The next time you have a 10 minute break between commitments, pick up a book and read. You may be surprised to discover that those 10 minutes actually energize your mind rather than leaving you mentally drained.

@techdevnotes Paused until grok gets upgraded

Grokipedia has not received any meaningful update in months … what’s happening with it

I think Dr. Alok’s prediction that “in 60 years, we will look back on AI like we look back on tobacco/nicotine” is wrong. AI has massive potential upside for mental health outcomes. We hear the occasional story of AI helping somebody to harm themselves or another person. But we don’t hear the thousands if not, millions of stories of AI helping somebody to improve themselves or help another person. This is the negativity bias. It’s safe to ignore a sunset, but not a tsunami.

While deep in the development of the iPod, Steve Jobs found himself bridging two seemingly opposite worlds: the cold precision of technology and the raw soul of music. In that intersection, he arrived at a profound insight—one you might know firsthand through creating art or building rockets. Art demands discipline. Technology demands creativity and intuition. The realization struck him because the technologists he worked with dismissed artists as lazy dreamers lounging on couches, while the artists viewed engineers as rigid, hard-headed machines. But Jobs, who lived in both realms through Pixar and Apple, saw the truth was exactly the reverse. The artists were the disciplined ones—endlessly refining, iterating, and pushing past resistance until the work rang true. The technologists, meanwhile, were the intuitive, almost mystical creators, guided by leaps of imagination that no flowchart could ever capture. @WalterIsaacson

@the_culturist_ Build more of these

Be brutally honest. What is your opinion on this design?

The Charlie Curran interview exposed one of the problems with Hollywood today: the people in charge don't even watch movies. They’re so detached from the audience that they think they can replace good storytelling with "woke" pandering. The result? Cringe, unwatchable content. If Hollywood wants to save itself, they need to stop lecturing and start actually watching some films.

@SpaceX @EvasTeslaSPlaid The future is actively being built

Starship and Super Heavy move out to continue preflight testing

@ns123abc @nikitabier I’ve already seen Elon’s post about Opus. I don’t want to see it again, much less as a screenshot with a 🚨 from a random account

🚨 xAI CEO SAYS GROK WILL BE OPUS 4.6 LEVEL BY JUNE

I remember sitting in an accounting class during my sophomore year when the professor started talking about career paths. He walked to the whiteboard, drew a line down the middle, and wrote Investment Banking on one side and In-N-Out on the other. Then he wrote out the average salary of an investment banker and compared it to the pay of an hourly In-N-Out employee. After that, he pointed out that investment bankers often work around 80 hours a week. His point was: when you break it down by hours worked, the pay of an investment banker is not all that different from working 80 hours a week at In-N-Out

This isn’t just a $META issue. It’s increasingly an issue for all of Tech. Because even within Tech, there is an emerging divide between AI-superpowered engineer/PM/sales folks and everyone else. And we know how that will end: Smaller orgs, bigger payoffs but then the riches distributed across even fewer players that it is today. And everyone sees it coming. Hence the rot from the outside and, now, the inside. To my peers and to the super entrepreneurs who are far more successful than me: This is why elites in tech that “have made it” are increasingly the ones that EVERYONE hates. We’ve not distinguished the difference between luck and skill that got us here. We don’t act as stewards in the broadest sense of the term. We aren’t bringing society along like other generations of super successful business people have. We don’t pay it forward in any meaningful way - although we have clever ways to make it look like we do. Mostly, people see us hording all the gains. Modern technology companies have essentially created a new form of indentured servitude for the educated masses where SBC was used to pay you an incredible living wage so you don’t go work “for the other guy”. But what does it mean to make $500k/yr if you still leak 55% to taxes then your landlord takes the next 25% for rent?? You still can’t buy a house in SV. These folks are on an eternal hamster wheel. It turns out it’s not much different than being in middle America making $55k.
