Thanks for your feedback! Appreciate the notes on the tone and trustworthiness of the UI. I'll look into incorporating more canonical sources — yes, we are scraping academic sources like PubMed, etc., but we can be more rigorous with selection criteria.

I'm hearing a lot about Data Centers Bad and how AI is Taking Jobs™, but I was curious — are we actually getting anything _real_ from AI yet? So I built whatthefuckhasaidone.com. Check it out.

Looks awesome! Will give it a try. I've built something similar, just open-sourced it:

I'm big on agent ergonomics. Cool to see what others are doing in the space.


Thats very kind of you :)

Hope you like it!

For the website, it would be helpful to have either a screenshot or a "sandbox" thing so I can play with it a bit


Having Tom Cruise's likeness in the footer of your site is just asking to be sued


Haha, I immediately thought the same thing when I saw it!


> after all, it's easy to figure out that an IP that is trying to grab every possible commit in a 8-year-old abandoned fork of linux is not really some lone Chrome on Windows user who is just furiously clicking every link that comes across their screen.

Ah yes, the stereotypical Linux kernel developer.


On a related note, I see all these quantitative benchmarks and the models getting really good at them over time. One thing I've been wondering: if the GPT series of models performs so well quantitatively, why do I still kind of hate using them relative to Claude? There’s a missing “vibes” or “taste” benchmark I think.


Exactly! Helpful to understand the tech stack that brought us here (and enjoy a visit to the Computer History Museum every once in a while), but we can do so much more now and that's to be celebrated :)


Thank you for sharing—very inspiring. I'm interested in the operations of starting and managing these companies in parallel. How did you go about finding people to run the companies? How much involvement do you have in their day-to-day operations? Are they "your" companies, or do you consider yourself just Customer #1?


Agree on looking at the company-behind-the-numbers. Though presumably you're aware of the Efficient Market Hypothesis. Shouldn't "slowed down datacenter growth" be baked into the stock price already?

If I'm understanding your prediction correctly, you're asserting that the market thinks datacenter spending will continue at this pace indefinitely, and you yourself uniquely believe that to be not true. Right? I wonder why the market (including hedge fund analysis _much_ more sophisticated than us) should be so misinformed.

Presumably the market knows that the whole earth can't be covered in datacenters, and thus has baked that into the price, no?


I saw a $100 bill on the ground. I nearly picked it up before I stopped myself. I realised that if it was a genuine currency note, the Efficient Market would have picked it up already.


The EMH does not mean that markets are free of over-investment and asset bubbles, followed by crashes.


Great memoirs! One question: You mentioned that sports activities were organized by the units in 404. Which sports were played?


"instead of writing 100 class names For every element, every page, every project, again and again…

use semantic class names sunglasses emoji It's descriptive, faster, cleaner and easier to maintain."

Semantic class names!? Brilliant. Does it seem like the web is reinventing itself to anyone else?
