@SpaceXJun 16
SpaceX has exercised the option to acquire @cursor_ai in an all-stock transaction with the goal of building the world’s most useful AI models. For the past few months, SpaceXAI has been jointly training a model with Cursor, which will be released in Cursor and Grok Build soon. We look forward to working closely with the Cursor team to advance our frontier AI capabilities

@SpaceXApr 21
SpaceXAI and @cursor_ai are now working closely together to create the world’s best coding and knowledge work AI. The combination of Cursor’s leading product and distribution to expert software engineers with SpaceX’s million H100 equivalent Colossus training supercomputer will allow us to build the world’s most useful models. Cursor has also given SpaceX the right to acquire Cursor later this year for $60 billion or pay $10 billion for our work together.

Last year, @nikstep and I decided Denmark needed a new startup podcast! Heavily inspired by My First Million. Long story short, we recorded three episodes (in Danish), but never got around to editing and shipping them 🙈 Yesterday I decided it was better to ship than not—screw the video, the fancy jingles, etc. So I did! It's called "Store Planer", it's in Danish, and it would be awesome if you checked it out!

why is it so hard for developers to understand context this is a terrible way to develop software with a team it's great for shipping fast as a solo dev

Great post on the reality of product management and why the best product people are often senior professionals from other roles, typically engineering, design, or marketing. You don’t build great products by reading case studies, but by building and perfecting your craft.

Product teams are rightly told to focus on outcome over output. But outcomes are lagging indicators that change very slowly. This leads to teams acting too late on issues with product updates. 🧵 on how fast-moving product teams predict the outcome with leading indicators

✈️ I want to fly someone in Europe to React Conf, first-class, for free. 🥂 First-class return plane ticket
📍 CPH ⇄ LAS
🗓️ May 12 – May 17
🏨 Accommodations at the conference hotel
🎟️ Conference ticket No catch — someone on our team can't make it and their ticket is non-refundable. But we can change the name on the ticket, so someone might as well go! You gotta get to and from Copenhagen yourself to make the flight and we won't cover your spending or anything, but the CPH ⇄ LAS plane ticket, conference ticket, and hotel room are on us. Reply with why it should be you (and only if you're sure you can actually make the trip!) and I'll pick someone later today 🤙🏻
