SpaceX: "Your 401K is the Exit Liquidty"
This is simply irresponsible theft. #SpaceX “If the company lists on Nasdaq this June as expected, the stock could land in your retirement portfolio within weeks. And some of Wall Street’s loudest skeptics think that’s a problem. That’s thanks to Nasdaq’s new “Fast Entry” rule, approved March 30, which slashes the index inclusion waiting period from three months to just 15 trading days for any newly listed company whose market cap ranks in the top 40 of the Nasdaq-100… Continue reading →

Perpetually 5 to 10 Years Away....
I think “AGI” or Artifical General Intelligence will be like nuclear fusion, perpetually 5 to 10 years away. “Ask someone in AI for their timeline, and they’ll tell you when they expect the arrival of AGI—artificial general intelligence—which is sometimes defined as AI technology that can match the abilities of humans at most tasks. As AI’s sophistication has scaled—thanks to faster computers, better algorithms, and more data—timelines have compressed. The leaders of major AI labs… have recently said they expect AGI within a few years. Continue reading →

BlueSky, Standard.Site and Cross-Posting
I’m experimenting with this UX: Saw the post that BlueSky is now supporting longer form articles using Standard.site. Which I thinks is only good. But might it become “double plus good” if this same UX could make it so that posts that were say 500 characters, or more authored on one platform, could “POSSE” over to Bluesky in this new Standard.site mode and not just look like a link card, but as as a decent microblog post with the rest of the thread continuing in the full article.

Indieweb Was Agentic Before It Was Cool
Hhypothesis: Developers who came out of the #indieweb communities are conceptually more comfortable with the #agenticweb ideas, as basically they have been doing it for years. #POSSE, which is the beating heart of all things indieweb, isn’t LIKE agentic social and web publishing - it IS Agentic web and social publishing. https://indieweb.org/POSSE Continue reading →

"Why The Filibuster Absolutely Has to Go..."
Josh isn’t wrong. The fillibuster was always a bad idea. Even more damaging in times like these. “In today’s moment there’s an additional factor. If you want to reenforce and reform the federal government to make it more resistant to authoritarian assaults you very literally have to get rid of the filibuster. Otherwise, you’re limiting yourself to only the anti-authoritarian measures the authoritarians will buy into. I can’t accept that. And I can’t accept the idea that we simply do nothing.
