Bending Spoons is an Frontier Economic Research organization masquerading as a shitco
Rare Thiel miss thinking that innovation in the world of bits (finance and software) was a sign of stagnation. progress in IT = progress in the economy (which is at its core an distributed information processing system). The real Thielian question isn't "which valuable business is no one building?" it's "which economic version control system is no one building?" Often times, in the most valuable areas, the necessary instrumentation to build such a version control system doesn’t even exist yet. I think the labs undervalue this, mostly because admitting that local knowledge (and understanding how it evolves) is of paramount importance in one area, means admitting it's important everywhere. And that calls their core epistemological assumption into question.

Every three months I get The Cold Brew That Ruins My Day (too strong) from a nearby coffee shop with very good breakfast sandwiches. While getting a sandwich, I think, “Today I’ll get the cold brew, and it won’t ruin my day.” But, of course, it’s The Cold Brew That Ruins My Day

Figma vs Labs is the frontier battlefield of the <AI for X Job Title> products (i.e. Harvey / Rogo) longer write up, but they have a better chance at survival than any other and if @zoink fails, it would be a necessary and sufficient condition for everyone else godspeed

Every RL environment we build runs on AgentEnv. Today we’re open-sourcing it, so more people can build the worlds agents learn in.

> Cognition is clearly the better product its harness is better than Factory > Factory mogs cognition in all use cases. Have you ever even used Cognition? > No. Have you used Factory? > No
Hey Matan - CEO of Cognition here. I respect the work you have done at Factory but your allegations here about Cognition are not true. We have no interest in Factory’s info and Chris has never brought it up. He has not shared and would never share any information about you or Factory with our team, nor would we ever ask. Similarly, we would never ask our engineers or anyone on our team to collect info about any competitor under-the-table. Chris is an advisor to at least 10 companies, and he told you he was resigning as an advisor on Monday. The truth is we both wanted Chris and for good reason - he is a living legend with an unmatched reputation for results and integrity. Not only is he the only person who has built a sales org from the first sales hire to over 3B, he also has built incredible teams that he cares deeply about. His people love working for him. Again, I have a lot of respect for what you’ve built, but competing with integrity doesn’t include posts like yours.

funny that swedish .org isn't some website about the swedish language, but instead a hospital in Seattle and zoo .org isn't some kind of inter-zoo governing body, but just the Seattle zoo Seattle has a lot of primo domain names due to microsoft etc adjacency in the 90s
