Workout, it helps. Even when life is incredibly stressful, find time to workout. Rhr was just 49 bpm on Monday.

Does anyone ever use Blockscan the messaging app from etherscan? Feels like that’s just dead in the water

who remembers the existence of OpenAI gpt-4.1, not within ChatGPT itself, but only API available? if not for perplexity, I’d honestly have forgotten about this model

Intel is reported to be cutting 1 in 5 staff this week. Broadcom has slashed VMWare's workforce roughly in half since 2023 (and they more or less ended work from home). You know what these two companies have in common? Malaysian-born leaders.

Tourists choose London over New York for the theatre now (5 million more). The gap was also consistent with the previous year (so this isn't Trump induced, though that seems anecdotal). £1 spent on theatre, £1.27 into local businesses (spillover effect).

Simple prompt: how is the pope today Gemini, perplexity, and ChatGPT get it right. May his soul rest in peace. Grok, with the firehose of information from X, is somehow a little confused, and outdated.

jwz is a smart guy. He worked with pmarca at Netscape. His diaries of working there are priceless startup lore. Today, he has a good piece on Signal. most interesting though is his take on the signal cryptocurrency. Will much of CT respond to him, one wonders https://www.jwz.org/blog/2025/04/signal-3/

The BBC did some legwork for their article on EV cable thefts. This is journalism. Makes it worth reading!

We see lots of guides about how to setup the perfect Linux or macOS development environment, but where are all those writing about Microsoft Windows dev environments?

I gave Manus AI a task. It took 26 minutes to complete with plenty of browser use. It then ate 528 credits! Even with search, it recommended Claude 3.5 Sonnet, instead of 3.7. Weird. The computer (+VSCode) is kind of nice. Wonder how many are paying.

Are people not realising that source available != open source? We see this with Gumroad's source code, and Meta's Llama 4. Just because you can see the source, doesn't make it open source. Has the OSI just gone silent on fighting this? Licensing matters. Or mattered.
