From February when SpaceX and xAI merged:
"Don't be surprised if this is a prelude to a future merger with Tesla, which recently invested $2 billion into xAI.
Tesla would make the chips, SpaceX would be responsible for launch and satellites, and xAI would build the models and agentic networks."

Foursquare was acquired last month. The outcome was disappointing. It's taken me a while to write this, but I think I'm finally done grieving it. Here are some thoughts on our final years, an effort to honor the team who helped build & maintain FSQ's legacy, and my attempt to finally get some closure. teendrama.substack.com/p/som…

So @TylerShultz_ as a Theranos whistleblower. And he wrote the piece you need to read about ‘You Can See Everything.’
Elizabeth Holmes is still lying, he says. And the filmmakers, while creating a great piece of art, fall short on looking outside the walls of her apartment to document that.
One key detail: "My wife had to squeeze my arm to prevent me from jumping out of my seat in the theater and screaming, THAT IS NOT THE DEVICE."
Again, that device Holmes showed? It's not the one we're talking about!!!!
Having seen the film, I basically agree with Tyler's take.

I’m loathe to give @bills fans credit for anything, but it really is impressive how many of them are here in Vegas.
Devyn Valandra isn't competing with Dario or Elon. But what he's doing is just as challenging — trying to grow a startup in the literal and figurative badlands (with assists from @ClayHaddock and @bgurley)
