Vercel protects your agents' deployments behind SSO like @Okta. Even Production ones, giving you a secure 'intranet' of apps generated with @v0, Codex, Claude, etc.
It's all fun and games until your agent gets 𝟺𝟶𝟷 𝚄𝚗𝚊𝚞𝚝𝚑𝚘𝚛𝚒𝚣𝚎𝚍 from the deployment *it just made* though 😂
The solution: 𝚟𝚎𝚛𝚌𝚎𝚕 𝚌𝚞𝚛𝚕. By just prefixing 𝚟𝚎𝚛𝚌𝚎𝚕 or 𝚟𝚌 you unblock your agent and yourself to easily 𝚌𝚞𝚛𝚕 any URL you have access to within the Vercel ecosystem.
Vercel Developers: Vercel CLI now supports native curl commands.
Same syntax as 𝚌𝚞𝚛𝚕, but uses Vercel auth to test all of your deployments. https://vercel.com/changelog/use-native-curl-syntax-with-vercel-cli
The Overpaid CEO tax doesn't tax overpaid CEOs, and all it does is pass higher gross receipts taxes on to consumers AND it will result in way lower revenue for the city, same as the CA asset seizure tax by SEIU.
Bad anti-business policy that makes our cities and states poorer.
Garry's List: SF's "CEO tax" raises taxes ~800% on Safeway, Walgreens, and Starbucks while Google, Meta, and Amazon pay zero.
"Taxing the rich" really means taxing grocery stores.

I just don't want my financial data to be used to train models or get targeted ads, so I turned "improve the model for everyone" off
Doesn't appear there's a "Use for ad targeting" toggle here so I'll assume the same toggle applies to both.

"How do you PM a frontier model like Opus?"
That's the question I asked my next guest, @alexalbert__, a research PM at Anthropic working on the next Claude model. We talked about how to:
→ Prioritize model capabilities
→ Build "dreaming" into Claude's memory
→ Train Claude's personality (and whether it'll reach consciousness)

RT @logic_int: EBMs are so back! Aleph now leads the major formal reasoning benchmarks.
Saturday morning and it’s a good time to think a bit about how our functional systems are being torn down by a mind virus by two philosophers: Foucault and Derrida
Foucault: His framework tells you that every institution claiming to know something is really just exercising power. Medicine, engineering, law, science. Apply that at civilizational scale and you get exactly what Dan Wang warns about: a society that lost the will to build. Process knowledge — the tacit know-how that only exists in the hands of people who actually make things — dies when a culture decides that all knowledge claims are suspect. America went from building the Interstate Highway System and the Apollo rockets to being unable to build a train from LA to SF. That didn't happen because we forgot the engineering. It happened because we built an entire intellectual class whose job is to interrogate every system rather than improve one.
Derrida: His move is that every commitment contains its own contradiction, so you can never land on firm meaning. Run that as societal firmware and you get the bureaucratic paralysis we now live in. Infrastructure projects stuck in 15 years of environmental review because every statement of purpose deconstructs under the next round of stakeholder input. Institutions that can't say what they're for because every draft mission statement gets wordsmithed into mush by people trained to find the hidden hierarchy in any clear sentence. Derrida is the OS behind a civilization that can write a 4,000 page environmental impact report but can't pour concrete.
The real damage is these ideas escaped the lab. Every institution that adopted this operating system stopped trying to discover truth and started managing narrative. DEI bureaucracies, academic hiring committees, media editorial standards. All running on Foucault and Derrida whether they know it or not.
The antidote is building. The physical bridge across a river holds or it doesn’t. The code compiles or it doesn't. Reality keeps score and it doesn't grade on a curve.
Foucault and Derrida gave a generation a sophisticated excuse to never build anything. Their followers inherited the sophistication and the impotence.
It’s time to build again.
Armond Boudreaux: Good morning to everyone whose brain hasn’t been infected by Foucault, Derrida, et al.

I don’t know why data centers have become this generations nuclear power.
Unlike nuclear power, there is a 0% chance that a data center can lead to any sort of disaster scenario.
This project in Utah is:
- in an uninhabited area
- bought and repurposed water already in use
- is bringing its own power, so it won’t cost citizens anything
It’s like being against building a nuclear power plant in the middle of Nevada, except there is no radioactive waste. No fall out. No risk of anything.
It’s a big computer in the middle of nowhere, that is self sufficient in all resources.
There are a million real problems in America.
Data centers just aren’t one.
Quick Thoughts: I think the big Utah data center is fine.

Garry Tan's GBrain makes the memory write path the reliability boundary for agent systems, because useful context must survive edits, sync, retrieval, and reuse as state.
The repo treats markdown as the source of truth, with Postgres and pgvector underneath the retrieval layer. The concrete problem is a 7,471-file, 2.3GB markdown wiki that becomes painful when git alone is the operating surface. After sync, a human edit can become queryable agent memory with ownership.
The reusable model is simple: agent memory should have a write path, a system of record, and drift tests. GBrain's CLI and MCP surface expose the same operations, while 30+ MCP tools turn the database into an action surface instead of a passive archive.
Serious AI infrastructure keeps moving toward this shape. Bigger prompts can carry more text for one run, but durable agents need state that can be written, audited, searched, and repaired between runs. Memory becomes production data.

Re What makes GBrain different:
The compiled truth + timeline pattern
👇
Every page has two zones:
Top: current best understanding (gets rewritten)
Bottom: append-only evidence trail (never edited)
You never lose provenance, but search isn't polluted by stale info.
Human-readable markdown is the source of truth. The agent enriches it while you sleep.

I just learned that the "data centers are using our water!" bullshit started because of a book called Empire of AI by Karen Hao in which she totally fucks up the math when determining how much water they use, an error she later acknowledged

Pretty insane that Garry built all this himself while also running the most impactful job on the planet. AI makes millionX engineers possible.
Garry Tan: What is GBrain? My open source project is a knowledge system, not RAG in a box.
It gives agents 8 layers that work together to improve memory in a way that makes your already smart OpenClaw or Hermes Agent feel clairvoyant about who you are.
Personal AI becomes possible.
