Overheard in Silicon Valley: "LinkedIn is prison for middle managers."

@Oneal14242 @DuncanCastles It’s the same. Clear behind the back push by the defender

@DuncanCastles Is that worse than the Olise foul yesterday

To add to the poor officiating the VAR decides not to ask the referee to review a clear Konate shove on Nuno Mendes as the PSG full back is clear through on goal. 🤷🏽‍♂️ #PSGLIV

Anthropic just announced Mythos, a model so good at hacking that they chose not to release it. Mythos found thousands of zero-day vulnerabilities in every major operating system and every major web browser. It autonomously chained together Linux kernel exploits to go from ordinary user to full machine control. My hot takes: 1/ If Anthropic wanted to, they could take over most servers on the planet right now. Let that sink in. 2/ This is the first time a model exists that, if released open source, would pose a credible risk of civilizational catastrophe (collapsing the internet). 3/ Some will say Anthropic is being responsible by not releasing it and only giving access to trusted partners for defense. Don't fall for this narrative. They built a weapon of mass destruction. Thank god they're not releasing it into the wild. But it's insane that they were allowed to develop it without any oversight whatsoever. 4/ Now ask yourself: how far behind are other labs? Meta has repeatedly signaled they would open-source a model like this the moment they have one. The only reason they haven't is that they're thankfully incompetent (their superintelligence team keeps delaying releases because performance is disappointing). And OpenAI? They have an unreleased model codenamed Spud. Do we trust Sam Altman, a compulsive liar who has essentially dismantled his safety team, to have potential root access to most machines on the planet and not pursue his goals recklessly? Read the recent New Yorker investigation (link below) and decide for yourself. 5/ This highlights a brutal asymmetry. Attack is now automated. Defense must catch up across every single piece of software in the world before a model with Mythos-level capabilities leaks or gets released openly. The task is colossal and the clock is ticking. 6/ The world is in a significantly worse place than it was last month. Anthropic didn't protect us. They created the threat, and now they're asking us to trust them with the solution. We need oversight, regulation, international coordination, and a Pause. Not corporate goodwill.

The dumbest person you know is being told 'you are absolutely right' by some LLM right now.

En France, 100 € de valeur produite = 47 € de prélèvements obligatoires (record UE). Avant de parler pouvoir d’achat, parlons pouvoir de produire et droit à garder son revenu. La vraie réforme, c’est moins de cotisations, moins de dépenses, moins d’État. Cotiser moins pour gagner plus, c’est @Nouv_Energie Pour le pouvoir d’achat, #OnLeFera

The internet remains undefeated 😭

Kevin O’Leary thinks the highest paying job right now is customer acquisition on social media “I used to pay those guys $48,000, now I’m paying them $250,000 because you can measure their work based on customer acquisition every week” “Most of them become contractors, they make half a million dollars a year because they know how to take content, turn it into a 59 second ad on social and acquire 200 customers” “Those people in their early 20’s are so valuable now. If you know how to use your phone, somebody wants to hire you”

J’ai le regret de vous annoncer que le gouvernement a acté la liquidation de l’Institut national de la consommation et de son magazine 60 Millions de consommateurs. Après des mois de mobilisation, le décret a été publié au Journal officiel.

BREAKING: Just five minutes before Trump's announcement to halt the attacks on Iran, massive trades reportedly hit the market. In one move, $1.5 billion in S&P 500 (ES) futures was bought while $192 million in oil (CL) futures was sold. These orders were 4–6x larger than anything else at the time. The trader seemingly made huge gains. Unusual.

Instagram just ended privacy in your DMs because apparently you didn't want privacy anyway.

I'm going to make some obvious points. (1) Blowing up all the oil infrastructure in the Middle East is an insane idea, and may well result in a global economic crash and humanitarian crisis unrivaled in the lives of those now living. We're talking about the price of everything everywhere rising, from food to gas, at a moment when inflation was already high. All of that will be laid at the feet of the authors of this war. (2) The antebellum status quo of Feb 27, 2026 was just not that bad, but we're unlikely to return to it. Expect indefinite, long-term, ongoing disruptions to everything out of the Middle East. (3) Also assume tech financing crashes for the indefinite future. The genius plan to get the Gulf states caught in the crossfire has incinerated much of the funding for LPs, for datacenters, and for IPOs. Anyone in tech who supported this war may soon learn the meaning of "force majeure" as funding gets yanked. (4) Many capital allocators will instead be allocating much further down Maslow's hierarchy of needs, towards useful basic things like food and energy. (5) It's fortunate that all those progressives yelled about the "climate crisis." Yes, their reasoning about timelines was wrong, and much of the money was wasted in graft, but the result was right: we all need energy independence from the Middle East, pronto. It's also fortunate that Elon and China autistically took climate seriously. Now they're going to need to ship a billion solar panels, electric vehicles, batteries, nuclear power plants, and the like to get everyone off oil, immediately. (6) It's not just an oil and gas problem, of course. It's also a fertilizer problem, and a chemical precursor problem. Maybe some new sources will come online at the new prices, but it takes time to dial stuff up, particularly at this scale, so shortages are almost a certainty. That said, China has actually scaled up coal-to-chemicals[a,c] (C2C), and there's also something more sci-fi called Power-to-X[b] which turns arbitrary power + water + air into hydrocarbons. But all of that will need to get accelerated. I have a background in chemical engineering so may start funding things in this area. (7) Ultimately, this war is going to result in tremendous blame for anyone associated with it. It's a no-win scenario to blow up this much infrastructure for so many people. Simply not worth it for whatever objective they thought they were going to attain. But unless you're actually in a position to stop the madness, the pragmatic thing to do is: scramble to mitigate the fallout to yourself, your business, and your people.
