We believe voice is the most natural way to interact with intelligence, so we created Dessa, the most authentic full-duplex speech model ever built. Talking with it feels like talking with a person…full of emotion, nuance, pauses, and a natural cadence.

Airlines once put piano bars on 747s, built a pub into a DC-10, collected fares after takeoff and flew 737s that were half cargo warehouse.
The weirdest airline cabins lost to history:

USA. A Mexican restaurant. We had not yet ordered anything, and the food was already arriving.
Chips. Salsa. Unrequested. Free.
I stopped the waiter. "We have not earned these."
"They just come with the table, man."
They come with the TABLE. In my land, hospitality is a debt. Every gift creates an obligation, weighed carefully, returned in the proper season with interest of feeling. Here, the gift arrives before you have even proven you can pay for dinner.
This is not an appetizer. This is a declaration: we trust you. Eat.
I ate with the gravity the moment deserved. And then — I must report this calmly — the basket emptied, and a new one appeared.
"Did we…?"
"Refill," the waiter said. "It's bottomless."
Bottomless. They have wells of salsa. The supply lines of this nation are beyond anything my ancestors imagined.
My friend warned me. "Don't fill up on chips, dude."
Too late. I had accepted three baskets. Honor demanded each one be finished — an unfinished gift is an insult. By the time my actual food arrived, I was a ruined man.
I was not hungry. I was not comfortable. I had been defeated by a courtesy.
Generosity that arrives before the request cannot be repaid. It can only be survived.
I know the rule now. I have made my peace with the basket. One basket. Two at the most.
Who am I deceiving. There is no number of baskets I would refuse. The trust of a nation is in that salsa, and I intend to honor all of it.

Things most Americans agree on:
Groceries cost too much.
Tariffs suck and make no sense.
Congress and Presidents shouldn’t trade stocks.
The debt is a mess.
The border should be secure, but legal immigration is good.
Endless wars are stupid, especially ones that nobody wants and have never been explained.
Americans are exhausted.
AI is like my new best friend that also might be trying to take my job, my ability to think for myself, and my humanity in the process. Yo like I love you, but WTF, but I still love you.
Diversity is actually awesome! The opposite is boring AF.
Canadians are super fucking cool.
Mexicans are chill.
Putin isn’t a good guy looking out for America’s best interest. Rocky IV and Miracle are great movies.
Good neighbors are a blessing.
Freedom of religion and coexistence without having to blow each other up is probably a good idea.
We all question, are we alone in the universe?
We all fuck up along the way.
Epstein didn’t hang himself.
The Trumps and Epstein were best friends for decades. It’s like Bert trying to tell us Ernie was just an acquaintance in the same social scene on Sesame Street back in the day.
The Cowboys suck. Go Birds!
Things we’re told to fight about:
Me.
Laptop.
Vaccines.
Transgenders in sports.
Pronouns.
That’s the joke.

Claude Cowork just KILLED manual outreach.
I used to grind for hours on LinkedIn.
Now? My AI stack does it better.
- No "Hey {{first_name}}" spam
- Natural, multi-step conversations
- 12+ hours saved this week
The result: 500+ conversations with human-level reply rates.
I packaged the entire system (prompts + workflow) into a FREE doc.
Want it?
Repost (so others see it)
Comment "CLAUDE" & I'll DM you.
The merger is just a formality. When you’re already negotiating travel fares and employee benefits across all companies, the "corporate independence" ship has long since sailed. Case in point: alaskaair.com/promo/AS2529?s…

Unicorns are everywhere right now.
Companies hitting $1B valuations on $2M ARR. Seed-stage startups announcing $500M caps. Every week another AI company crosses the billion-dollar mark.
Even 2021 didn't move this fast.
If you're evaluating a startup offer right now at one of these companies, there's something you need to understand:

Introducing Anything Max: Vibe Coding that's leaps above Lovable and Bolt
We've raised money at a $100M valuation and built what we believe is the future of vibe coding.
We asked 100 vibe coders to build their apps side by side on Lovable, Bolt, and Anything Max and they rated Anything Max the winner across all 3 categories - accuracy, design, and 'overall'.
Here's why:
• Full-stack control: Max can test backend hooks, branch database states, and debug issues, because Anything owns the full infrastructure.
• Max can load up your app in its own browser and click on all buttons like a human tester to find all edge case bugs, then trace the bug across the stack - could be a frontend, backend, or a database issue (only we can do this, read #1) and autonomously fix it with 97% accuracy.
Lovable and Bolt build prototypes, but Max users are building production-ready apps and already charging money for them.
Blake built a gut biome app to $10K run rate
Anthony built a referral tool to $20k in revenue
Yuri built a suite of apps doing $40K
Build your app with Max: createanything.com/max
--------------------------------------------
We're hosting a $100K Hackathon to help people grow their app to $10K MRR.
- We'll teach you everything we know about growing to 1M users.
- You'll have 30 days to build a real product in public and get paying customers for it.
If you do it well, you can start the New Year with a functioning business.

We’re delighted by Google’s success — they’ve made great advances in AI and we continue to supply to Google.
NVIDIA is a generation ahead of the industry — it’s the only platform that runs every AI model and does it everywhere computing is done.
NVIDIA offers greater performance, versatility, and fungibility than ASICs, which are designed for specific AI frameworks or functions.

I made >$778,000 PROFITS in the last 3 months selling digital products at 22 years old.
And I spent >100 HOURS making this MIRO board to show you guys STEP-BY-STEP how it works so you can COPY my business.
Digital products = ebooks, courses, coachings.
More than 5 of my students are making $20K to $80K every month in profits (using this strategy)
Zain (my student) for example made $78K in profits last month, you can message him t.me/zainyung
comment "MIRO" if you want this or if you want to join my students. then I'll send it to you through DM

A stray cat in SF gets run over by Waymo and a supervisor organizes protests and it makes national news. A baby (and family) is hit by a driver near a school 4 weeks ago (true story), not a peep.

most genius digital product arbitrage i've seen this year:
guy found guru doing $50k/month with faceless accounts
everyone told him he needed his own unique method, original frameworks, proprietary systems
he ignored all of it
just: copied their multi-account structure, hired same VA model, used their telegram funnel
generated $31k first month
no innovation. no original ideas. no reinventing wheels.
zero creativity needed
the formula:
- identify what's already printing money
- replicate account infrastructure exactly
- copy proven traffic and conversion methods
- execute faster than you think of new ideas
scaled to 6-figs while "innovators" tested theories that failed
wrote the complete replication playbook into a doc
rt and comment "product" and i'll send it (must follow to dm)

I was radicalized when I found out that children have a monotonic dose response to opportunity. For every year of childhood in a prosperous neighborhood, their outcomes at age 26 are better.
People wanted to deprive families of a future to preserve parking spots and stasis
