We're evolving our EVERYTHING AS CONTEXT philosophy: olivemail.ai
The challenge that pops up again and again is privacy.
And that's not because we're European. It's the fundamental bottleneck to AI doing REAL WORK.

We can design software in our own image ...
or just reveal the truth of the application domain.

Grok Build’s smartest move: It heavily uses Python.
This lifts reasoning to a higher level and provokes fewer mistakes – perfectly mixing generative creativity with deterministic reliability.
Other agents still haven’t figured this out. They run less code and write it in Bash.
Success with #AI requires at least 2 of 3 factors:
1️⃣ Specialized Domain
→ and UX tailored to one niche problem
2️⃣ Unique Data
→ ideally enough to train your own models
3️⃣ Embodiment
→ ties into the real physical world
Glad to see my thesis reflected in current discourse:
My AI investment thesis is that every AI application startup is likely to be crushed by rapid expansion of the foundational model providers.
App functionality will be added to the foundational models' offerings, because the big players aren't slow incumbents (it is wrong to apply the analogy of "fast startup, slow incumbent" here), they are just big. Far more so than with any other prior new technology, there is a massive and fast-moving wave that obsoletes every new app almost as fast as it can be invented. There is almost no time to build a company and scale it.
There are two ways AI application startup founders can make money:
- Make a flash-in-the-pan app that generates a ton of cash and bank the cash (my estimate is that you have about 12-18 months cashflow generation)
- Make a good enough app that you get acquired by one of the big players for sufficient equity
The situation is highly unstable - we don't know if it's going to crash or go to the moon but both scenarios make it very unlikely that any AI application startup will independently become a generational supercompany (baseline odds are low to begin with).
The best odds are finding an application niche in a highly specialized field with extremely unique and specific data barriers, ideally ones relating to real atoms (hardware or world-related) data and not software/finance.
Measurement is the best basis for improvement. Quantifying bias will go a long way 🙏🏻

We're fed an endless stream of consternation over AI slop these days. The content apocalypse is nigh! It'll rot your brain! Okay, sure, maybe, but have you seen the kind of content sludge that perfectly ordinary humans are capable of producing? It's thrice as tragic.
The web is full of it. Garbage writing and brain-dead shorts. Content mills pumping out nonsense pages and gagging videos to appease whatever the high priests of SEO now think they've divined will please Lord Google or Master TikTok.
It's been infecting websites everywhere with "calls to action", "white paper available upon sign up", and "10 ways to supercharge your productivity". Links stuffed into every crevice to juice rankings, capture "most searched for" keywords, and convert, convert, convert.
It's an affront to humanity to make sentient beings do this work. Turning human potential, creativity, and ingenuity into content sludge is a process no more dignified than turning pink slime into chicken nuggets.
I'll take AI slop over human sludge any day. Let the little robots barf up tokens to unlock the next basis point of incremental conversion. Better them than us, I say. This is exactly the soul-crushing, creative drudgery that machines were made to munch through without complaint.
But couldn't we do without sludge or slop, you say? Sure, right after we reach a shared state of nirvana. As soon as the average 4.5 hours of screen-on time is turned into real reading, real making, real pursuits. So that'll happen exactly never.
Case in point: the most important attribute of a phone for most people is still the battery life. These little content slop and sludge faucets can already spew out nearly an entire day's worth of nonstop eyeball junk, and yet you crave more. More! MORE!
So stop whining about the AI slop. You're already steeped in human sludge. And the door to exit both was always there. But you're not going to open it, are you?

We are alarmed by reports that Germany is on the verge of a catastrophic about-face, reversing its longstanding and principled opposition to the EU’s Chat Control proposal which, if passed, could spell the end of the right to privacy in Europe.

I'm about to do something I think I've never done before, which is assert every bit of whatever authority I have as the person who discovered and wrote down the rules of open source.
After ten years of drama and idiocy, lots of people other than me are now willing to say in public that "Codes of Conduct" have been a disaster - a kind of infectious social insanity producing lots of drama and politics and backbiting, and negative useful work.
Here is my advice about codes of conduct:
1. Refuse to have one. If your project has one, delete it. The only actual function they have is as a tool in the hands of shit-stirrers.
2. If you're stuck with having one for bureaucratic reasons, replace it with the following sentence or some close equivalent: "If you are more annoying to work with than your contributions justify, you'll be ejected."
3. Attempts to be more specific and elaborate don't work. They only provide control surfaces for shit-stirrers to manipulate.
Yes, we should try to be kind to each other. But we should be ruthless and merciless towards people who try to turn "Be kind!" into a weapon. Indulging them never ends well.

A better internet depends on a diverse ecosystem. Today, we're proud to announce our support for @ladybirdbrowser (a completely independent browser built from scratch) and @OmarchyLinux (making Linux more approachable for devs). Super excited to see what the community builds!

LLM-assisted coding killed Agile.
No business leader who saw how software can be made will ever want to wait while you t-shirt-size your features, write user stories, conduct sprint planning ceremonies, hold daily stand-ups, run retrospectives, maintain a backlog grooming ritual, estimate story points using those dumb planning poker sessions that take longer than actually building the feature, create JIRA tickets with mandatory fields that add no value, schedule cross-functional alignment meetings to align on alignment meetings, and produce burndown charts that nobody reads—all while the competition ships working software and captures market share.
A business leader will tell you what feature they need, and you will bring this feature tomorrow. The technical debt problem will be solved next year if there's still business next year.
The march to super-intelligence continues.
We just released 2 open source SOTA submission to ARC-AGI (both v1 and v2)
Submissions by @jeremyberman and @_eric_pang_ are the best we've seen. Both:
- Open source
- Use Grok 4
- Use program synthesis
I asked why they used Grok 4, both said, "It was the best model I used in testing."
These types of submissions are the reason we run ARC Prize. Impacful research which pushes the boundary out in the open.
All the links for their code are in the ARC Prize thread

@warpdotdev is my new default terminal app. github.com/codeface-io/mac-s…
It breaks new ground in AI coding, merging shell terminal and AI chat into a new developer experience, transcending the same lazy solution we see everywhere else: VS Code clone with tacked on AI chat column.
And Warp is still early (or agile) enough to respond to users. Love it.
