It’s @OpenAI DevDay and @EdmontonOilers opening night. OpenAI gave out ModRetro Chromatics, and Codex can one-shot games, so naturally I had to make a game where McDavid feeds Draisaitl one-timers. #LetsGoOilers
Poor GitHub, Claude Code is generating 2-3x more commits for the same amount work over the last few weeks
I'm noticing in my Claude Code usage stats (from ccusage) that 95-99% of tokens are "cache reads." If true, then we're really not using as many tokens as we think.
Instead of $573 it would be more like $5 of usage. Maybe ccusage is broken because I doubt I used 691M tokens yesterday, but still.
I built a little utility app with Claude Code and Cloudflare workers. Within minutes, ClaudeBot and GPTBot started hammering the app at 8 request/second.
The fun part is Cloudflare workers are usage based, and D1 (their hosted sqlite) charges by row read...
Just like YC doesn’t invest in California, New York or Texas corporations.
New from me: Y Combinator is no longer investing in Canadian startups.
The accelerator recently cut Canada from its list of countries where enrolled firms can be incorporated. They'll now need a new parent company in the U.S., Cayman Islands or Singapore.

If your great technical achievement is graduating from vlookup, you aren’t allowed to comment on the brex deal.

Just to be clear:
1. California borrowed heavily from the federal government to cover pandemic unemployment that they “LOST” due to fraud.
2. Unlike every other state, California chose not to pay that loan down
3. The repayment burden was shifted almost entirely onto employers QUIETLY and automatically
4. This all occurred while the governor went on a press tour celebrating a “budget surplus”
California is the only state in the nation that has not paid off its federal pandemic unemployment loan.
Businesses large & small have been shouldering the $20B debt bc CALeg & Gov put nothing toward it.

It's fun to see this much excitement around San Francisco, when it's still only about 60% of what it was in Feb 2020
