Newsom just commuted the sentence of the man who locked this boy up in a cage, made him eat cat shit and shot him with BBs for fun only to watch him die.

Governor @CAgovernor @GavinNewsom:
Polly Klaas would be 45 years old today.
Instead, she’s been dead for 33 years because a violent repeat offender, already released from prison, walked into her bedroom during a slumber party.
Richard Allen Davis held a knife to three little girls, tied them up, covered their heads with pillowcases, and dragged Polly out of her own home while her mother slept nearby.
He may have sexually assaulted her, but investigators couldn’t conclusively determine that because her little body wasn’t found until two agonizing months after that monster murdered her. By then, her remains were too decomposed to establish what else he had done to her.
He admitted to strangling her twice. Initially he attempted with a knotted piece of cloth. When he was not successful, he then used a cord.
He then discarded her.
When Davis was sentenced to death, he had the audacity to accuse Polly’s grieving father of molesting her.
Polly never got a 13th birthday. No high school graduation. No wedding. No children. Her parents were robbed of an entire lifetime with their daughter.
A jury heard the evidence and sentenced her killer to death.
Now, 33 years later, you’ve decided your personal opposition to capital punishment matters more than that sentence.
Polly will never grow old. Her killer will.
You didn’t give Polly Klaas justice. You gave the man who murdered her something he never gave her: the chance to live.

periodic reminder -- we are running a $2 trillion annual deficit (6% of GDP).
doesn't matter who won midterms. still f*d. mostly b/c we spend too much on the eldery.
US faces $73 trillion in long‐term unfunded obligations over next 75 years. 100% of which is social security and medicare.
neither party is willing to address.

Just spent some time catching up with an old coworker, who now works at the VP level at a boutique investment bank
Was asking him about analyst use of AI and thought his insight was quite fascinating
More people are using AI now vs just few months ago, and it absolutely cuts down a lot of time from mundane tasks
Just tedious things like arranging logos on a deck or managing a contact log for investors would require analyst resources behind it.
Now an Associate or VP with Claude can just do it by themselves with minimal effort
However, the work hours have not gone down at all for the analysts. Since senior folks know about the capabilities of AI, they are now staffing analysts across more deals at any given time
Not only that, MDs are chasing after new mandates more often than before.
Directors are coming up with new tasks for their analysts, like maintaining tear sheets or comp sets on niche verticals. VPs are asking for more pages and trying to show more analysis to clients than before
In summary, the duration of any single task has gone down because of AI.
However, this has been offset with new work that the firm and group simply never had capacity to do before
Instead of reducing hours, it has opened up room for his group to chase after more revenue and provide better/faster work to existing clients.
Suspect this is also what is happening across many industries and companies, not just in banking or finance
Walked away with the reinforced belief that the entire job loss narrative of AI is just doomerism

I couldn't let this go without some extra love; so here's 10000 agents playing Minecraft on lovable.dev
1500 after 13s, 5k after 35s and 10k in roughly 60s.
Running on ~200 x 48 core machines with NVMe
Follow and I'll teach u all my tricks

I have to check the exit polling but can anyone tell me what percentage of voters were primarily concerned with renaming AI to SI and making sure the White House ballroom was renovated? Oh, exactly zero percent? Wow okay

Imagine how poorly run an organization has to be to spend $75 million in lower league US soccer and not even be able to win games consistently or make the playoffs in a league where almost everyone makes the playoffs.
And now they’re asking for $15 million in fresh capital to “save the club” and prop up some insane valuation for an entity who has primary owners who are all multi multi millionaires.
As the original founder of this club, reading this makes me sick. This will go down as the poster child for what not to do when running a club.

every product i use should just be a headless mcp, that feeds into an agent, where i never have to think about anything underneath.
except for our product, of course.
in our product, customers love the ui and love us very much.
we're special that way.

Starting today, you can import apps and websites you’ve built elsewhere into @Lovable.
Once imported, you can keep building, add payments, create ads, and reach more customers. All from Lovable.
Proud of the team for making this happen.

Somebody said that Apple is in their Taco Bell era where they're just smashing together random leftover parts from other devices and naming them things like "Phonedito Supreme Crunch" and it's the perfect analogy. Here slap a touch screen on this, charge $4k and call it a Maclupa
