Today we're announcing that @dili_ai has raised a $15M Series A led by @khoslaventures , alongside @ycombinator , Brick & Mortar Ventures, and Allianz to reinvent professional services for capital projects. In just 6 months since our round, Dili has grown more than 500% - powering high-stakes compliance, monitoring, and audit across 700+ projects representing $4B of project spend. Fortune 500 clients building some of America's largest energy and infrastructure projects work with Dili to speed up project delivery alongside 1000+ developers, EPCs, and contractors. America is going through a once-in-a-generation infrastructure buildout. One missed PWA or Davis Bacon compliance requirement can put hundreds of millions of dollars at risk, creating an urgent need for 100% visibility across every project portfolio. To our incredible customers and partners - this wouldn't have been possible without you. Thanks to @vkhosla , @hari_arul , @garrytan , @darrenbechtel and our existing investors for their support. If you want to be at the frontier of AI applied to the real world - come join us!

We’re betting our $5.5M seed round that the next leap in AI coding won’t come from OpenAI or Anthropic. It’ll come from a new feedback loop that learns from you. Introducing Beacon: open-source, self-improving memory for coding agents. Your sessions capture how you debug and solve problems. Today, that context gets lost and you have to re-explain things every time you switch tools. Beacon continuously distills your sessions into reusable skills across Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and 20+ harnesses, so your next agent can learn from the last. Beacon is free and OSS 🌟 github.com/Asymptote-Labs/ag… Why should the frontier labs be the only ones winning with your sessions? You already did the work. Now let your coding agents learn from you.

introducing codex-web. i love codex desktop. i wanted to use it on mobile to monitor and steer long running agents so i built codex web. codex web is a thin wrapper around the upstream codex desktop app. it splits the app into two parts: one which runs on a server (anywhere were node and codex cli run) and one which runs in the browser. i use it every day and it's increased the set of tasks i'm able to achieve with just my phone and a cell connection. try it out here github.com/0xcaff/codex-web

not enough people discussing how apprenticeship programs are the deciding factor in whether the US reindustrializes. Skilled labor is the missing piece of the puzzle.

Reminder that it’s 2025 and Sunita Williams & Barry Wilmore are STILL stuck in space.
Best week ever! So happy to be back in space and on @Space_Station (ISS). The ride was amazing, and being here with friends is just awesome. Incredible to see three different human-rated spacecraft docked to the ISS. Great to be part of all that!

If I were Microsoft I’d become the largest funder of @arcprize and change the name ASAP lol
New verified ARC-AGI-Pub SoTA! @OpenAI o3 has scored a breakthrough 75.7% on the ARC-AGI Semi-Private Evaluation. And a high-compute o3 configuration (not eligible for ARC-AGI-Pub) scored 87.5% on the Semi-Private Eval. 1/4

penetration of LLMs in diligence is wider than a lot of people admit today, @perplexity_ai is one of the best external research tools available
Met an investor yesterday, managing $50m of assets. "We tried using NotebookLM to do due diligence on potential companies to invest in, but there's no way to pull information from the web there or use the best models like Sonnet-3.5. Perplexity Spaces came at the right time."

People don’t want to buy enterprise software They want to buy a “make money” button they can press repeatedly The rise of intelligence/reasoning in LLMs means this button becomes real, and it will look like new products fully replacing what used to be armies of consultants

Looks like Raja Ravi Varma, Kerala painter who blended Indian mythology with European techniques. His painting "Shakuntala" (1870) depicts Shakuntala pretending to remove a thorn from her foot while she looks for her lover, King Dushyanta.
'Portrait, Barclay Donne.' (1928) Edward Wolfe moved to England from South Africa during WW1 where he studied at the Slade School. Woolf had his first solo show in Johannesburg in 1920 and went on to exhibit widely both in England and internationally. In the 1920s, he became known as 'England's Matisse' in reference to his strikingly colourful post-impressionistic portraits.
