You can feel how fast Corgi is growing just by spending a few hours in the Corgi Cafe. Everyone is shipping with Claude Code. 10/10 recommend.

a group of 2-3 men is called a podcast but a group of 4+ men? that's a startup

gotta say there is nothing Ticketmaster does better than make a mockery of American laws. Today the DOJ lawyer arguing the case to break up the music monopoly learned his bosses had settled the case 3 days earlier from the judge, who was PISSED

Last week @ryanbed autopiloted from SF to the OG YC office in Mountain View while I vibe coded in the passenger seat. Felt like we time traveled back to when we were in YC, except with ai alien tech

.@ChaseAdam17 is one of the realest. Huge respect and admiration! 🫡

@shauryaset Went to that cafe every morning while I was there haha

@ryanbed Mardi Gras was insane! Crazy that you were able to recognize that it was NOLA

Exploring vibey cafes in a new city >>>

Feels like every developer on X went from using Cursor → Claude Code → Codex in ~6 months. Fast switching usually means there’s no moat.

@paularambles i find i walk more in sf than other cities because it’s beautiful and inspiring (even though the hills are crazy)

sf is an extremely walkable city and i will die on this hill

guys you're never gonna believe this

.@TheCorgiCompany Superbowl party rocked. (featuring 40 corgis!)

@rob0the0nerd @thewritingdev @steipete Yep. wpengine is worth close to $1B and it just does wordpress hosting

@thewritingdev @steipete Plenty of precedent for companies that deploy OSS, see eg Databricks

I'm not convinced by this. Funding a closed source company building on something that's open source. Why not fund @steipete or his team directly?

@francedot @gregpr07 Legends

after a year in the making they’ve finally met computer x browser guy @gregpr07

OpenClaw founder @steipete reminding us that LLMs scale nicely, but human latency remains unsolved. (at YC tonight)

it’s sorta of remarkable that the era of the 10 blue links is officially pretty much over. it lasted for ~27 years. incredibly durable run.

@TheCorgiCompany is coming out of stealth with $108M raised to build the future of financial infrastructure. A lot of the GDP flows through highly regulated financial entities that haven't been meaningfully changed in decades. To fix this, we're starting in insurance.

Announcing our $16M Series A led by @Standard_Cap With participation from @ycombinator, @pioneer_fund, @Liquid2V, @grinich, @yuris As part of this, we’re hiring for multiple roles across engineering, support and marketing ↓
