they're building encrypted mutual crush identification mini-apps on the Solana blockchain? and you're bearish?

i have a good news and a bad news

bad news is that web2 behemoths are not going away anytime soon. network effects are deeply entrenched.   

good news that they cannot stop us from peeking into their "private" databases from time to time and get exactly what we need to build new networks

Globally, people believe their kids will be poorer than them https://www.pewresearch.org/global/2025/01/09/views-of-childrens-financial-future/

College alone hasn’t been enough for upward mobility since 1960 https://www.nber.org/papers/w33797

Over my adulthood, I’ve seen income inequality do nothing but get worse. 

Fixed labor costs are a massive part of a company’s bottom line. 

AI genuinely is more competent than many people 

……… 

Talk me out of this. I feel fucked already; like I spend a lot of time deeply thinking about how to reskill

a counterintuitive thing i learning while talking with @july

professional photographers are not at all anxious about losing their jobs to AI

why is OpenAI not working on an operating system?

is anyone working on a devops agent? 

whenever something goes wrong in production an agent should be triggered. if agent cannot resolve, it could be escalated to the oncall person

Dialectic with Jackson Dahl

I interviewed Alex Danco (@stimps) about the magical enzyme that catalyzes creativity in silicon valley and beyond — gifts. 

Alex is a product leader at Shopify and one of the most generative writers at the intersection of markets, technology, business, and culture.

I've read Alex for nearly 10 years as he's covered how VC and startups impact each other, what is happening as we move from a world of scarcity to abundance, how culture shapes and is shaped by tech and business, and more.

We cover:
- why generosity allows us to solve the coordination problems needed to innovate

- VC's as priests and founders as kings, endowed with the power to tell stories about the future

- why gifts are the opposite of slop

- how originality with AI tools may resemble a guitarist finding her or his sound

- why podcasts are dominant and will continue to be

- why Sam Altman can't copy Phish

- how human beings fundamentally change when they're in a crowd

- why you should host more dinner parties
