This story about the leftist consultants who discovered Graham Platner is full of absolutely wild tidbits

A couple of thoughts: generally I think it's fair game for media to be critical, and you can't/shouldn't rely on friendly coverage in exchange for an exclusive. In an exclusive you get to say your piece, but then it's really out of your hands. However, I do think it's fair to expect that some standards of decorum or objectivity are at play. WIRED failed to live up to those expectations of journalism in this case and instead produced something Really Goddamn Weird.
The article title and subtitle should never have gone out. "Freaky," "soft," "oddly intimate" and the faint whiff of judgement in the phrase "some very tactile hands" are all deliberate choices that pick a sexualized lens for reporting on the tech. The original version of the article, since modified, included the quite extraordinary remark: "This starts to get weird because, if the advertising for the Neo is anything to go by, 1X seems pretty sure that you’re also going to want to have sex with its robot." The words "kink shame" appear in the article.
This barely qualifies as tech reporting. This is catty and bizarre. Whatever editorial standards allow this kind of thing are hard to fathom. Pushback is fully justified. There should be a real distinction between what a news outlet publishes and social media dunkslop.
dar: I gave WIRED the exclusive on our hands launch, and they wrote a really weird article about how we are sexualizing robotics…

I felt pretty betrayed because that’s not what they told me they were writing about not is that what I’ve ever been about…

How about a California initiative that allows for minimal restrictions and no zoning restrictions other than meeting the basic state building code on any housing that’s targeted at the lowest quartile of housing prices in the county. Works for every county in the state. Short time, construction and lower cost at the low end. Will increase supply at the low end of prices.
Garry Tan: They’re going to blame tech
But the real cause: extreme restriction of housing supply and subsidized demand

Building is a choice, SF should embrace it
Austin delivered 73k new apartment units the past 3 years alone
The result: vacancy rates at 13% and rents down 16%
I regularly meet new founders moving to Austin — cost of building a company & living are the main drivers

This is the 23 year old DSA Councilwoman Ayah A. Al-Zubi in Cambridge who proposed getting rid of shot spotter along with Burhan Azeem. Cost this man his life a month later.
Swann Marcus: Cambridge disabled Shot Spotter because they said it was racist. Then a black Public Works employee got shot, lay undiscovered for over an hour while bleeding out in a public park, and died because first responders didn't know a shooting happened

Robert Scoble interviews me outside YC after the summer 2010 Demo Day. By that point we'd funded what seemed the enormous number of 208 startups, including 36 in that batch.

Today we're launching the Little Tech Association (#LTA), the actual voice of founders, startups, and investors striving to grow and compete in the digital economy.
200+ member companies, from names you know to ones you haven't heard of yet: @protonprivacy, @Replit, @Yelp, @ycombinator and many more.
One shared belief: the best products and ideas should win on merit, not market power.

Oil prices are up nearly $4.50 since Trump scrapped the MoU with Iran.
Without a deal, the market is pricing in elevated oil prices through 2030. The margin of increase will likely go up if there is no progress on negotiations in the coming weeks.

My top 5 takeaways from @imjaredz (Builder in Residence at @Cognition):
1. Use cloud agents for async and parallel work.
A cloud agent runs on a remote computer with its own repo, terminal, and browser. It keeps working when you close your laptop and lets you run many agents without overloading your local machine. This is what makes agent fan-out practical.
2. Use a main agent to manage the agent team.
Ask it to divide a large job into independent slices, write the prompts, launch the sub-agents, and combine their results. Jared demoed using this pattern to generate 10 competing landing-page designs.
3. Keep each sub-agent’s context small and its task focused.
Agents work better when they can focus on one problem without a crowded context window. Scan the dependencies first, then give each sub agent a slice it can test and merge independently.
4. Have the main agent check each sub-agent’s work before you do.
It can ask the sub-agents to run tests, attach screenshots, and return videos, then compare their results and prepare one report. This lets you review the evidence without jumping between 10 agent threads.
5. Keep the human focused on taste and high-level decisions.
The agent team can divide the work, execute it, test it, and bring the results back. The engineer still chooses the problem, judges the tradeoffs, and decides what ships.

The recent @latentspacepod talking about Modal w/ @akshat_b is fantastic. Modal is an amazing technology to use. It just works and it is extremely well designed. They 100% get dev ergonomics correct.
I use it for a lot of different things, and honestly use it for things that go 'against the grain' of their core positioning / offering. Turns out that works well too :)
Wrote a bit about how I am using their services here:

YC has temporarily lost Tom to a startup with unusually high compute costs
Tom Blomfield: Personal update: I'm taking a leave of absence from YC to join Anthropic. I'll be working with @NotTomBrown on the compute team.
Powerful AI has the potential to improve the life of every human on earth and, as we enter the early stages of recursive self-improvement,

right on schedule

🆕 In Code They Act, In Proof We Trust — Erik Meijer
last year, @solomonstre defined agents as "an LLM that's wrecking its environment in a loop", and @simonw coined the Lethal Trifecta for agents, that remains unsolved.
our closing keynote @headinthebox introduces the main motivations behind Automind and the Universalis interpreter - agents that carry their own verifiable proof of safety! link to talk below
Erik Meijer: Forty-odd slides that weave four story lines together with subtle and not so subtle jokes featuring Dario, Daniella, Sam, the Pope, Bernie, Claude, .... and code samples in Lean and Dafny.
I guarantee that my AIE World's Fair talk [0] will be more fun than all those after

New @wapo story today, the Trump family has secured about $3.2 billion in Pentagon contracts for firms which they are involved in. This is the tip of the iceberg in the largest corruption saga in US history.

Dominic Kundel (from @OpenAI) gives the inside scoop on where GPT-5.6-Sol gets magical: computer use.
Background browser tabs, app control, multi-agent fanout, and Codex verifying its own work all change when latency drops.
Join us in the Token Billionaires Lounge, presented by @cerebras and @aiDotEngineer. In conversation with @dkundel // @MilksandMatcha

knew this was a good idea
Max Lugavere: Just telling people they slept poorly led to impaired cognitive function. Telling them they slept fine preserved it.

Keep in mind that Trump‘s persistent delusion and propaganda that 2020 was stolen is essential pretext to his attempting to interfere in the midterms and 2028. He’s been laying that ground since the day he was reelected. Wake up.
Republicans against Trump: UPDATE: Donald Trump plans to claim in his speech that newly declassified intelligence reports reveal a foreign nation's plans to interfere in the 2020 presidential election, two White House officials told MS NOW

Something's wrong when people start making McKinsey 2x2 charts to try to understand what model and effort to use. Hope all of this can be simplified for regular users.
0xSero: GPT-5.6-Sol (medium) is the optimal configuration.

i gave 5.6 sol access to my camera roll and had it extract pictures of every piece of clothing i own from my photos
then, told it to find new outfits for me and render them on me with gpt-image!
its kinda cool to see your entire wardrobe in a collection like this
Sam Altman: i'd love to see interesting things people have built with 5.6 sol.
i will send the person who made the coolest thing a special gift from the openai archives.
