I'm extremely proud of what we've been able to achieve with Huff. Thank you to all of the hard-working contributors who have helped turn this into something special. We're just getting started, I can't wait to see what the future holds for us.

Our mission is to make it easy for anyone to deploy a robot to help them in the real world We wrote an intuitive guide to understanding modern robotics, catered toward an audience that understands technology but not AI robotics We hope that this short blog post embeds in you the core principles that will bring further curiosity.

Beyond reputation: everybody is going to forget about this shit This has happened time and time again. Bro beyond that, >50% of engineering is on Polymarket US, they’re launching perps, L2, token, rewriting backend, etc etc They’re fighting 1000 dragons rn, this is nothing

we're achieving new levels of self awareness in sf

"the beauty and joy of computing" at berkeley has a c average great

Most robotics data is slop. That's the real bottleneck for physical AI. Bad angles. No diversity. No quality control. Impossible to train on. We raised $500K from Genius Ventures to fix this. Introducing Northstar.

Gen Z drinking less. Also Gen Z, higher depression rates and having less sex. Get laid and live a little, jfc.

They invented the key to perfect sleep: A headband that actively forces you into a deeper "N-REM" sleep by timing your brains oscillations

Namaste means “the dawg in me recognizes the dawg in you” in Sanskrit

what if everything goes right

my favorite takeaway from learning to code when i was younger (beyond the obvious upside) was an incredibly deep appreciation for the small, non-obvious details that make systems work well feel effortless. so much deliberate work goes into shit normies never notice this is ofc a byproduct of understanding how things actually work but the next generation won’t have this

Whop has acquired Hidden Studios to lead ad-tech initiatives. In the past two years, we evolved from building Fortnite mini games to an in-game advertising platform reaching 15 million monthly players and $20m ARR. After meeting @cultured, I realized we could grow far beyond gaming. Thank you to @cory , @justinmateen, @ParetoHoldings, and our other early investors for believing in us.

shocked that so many people have yet to realize how terrible the unit economics are on prediction market "pro terminals" - retail users don't spend - crowd price is the signal - no proprietary data moat could go on for hours

Incredible. I’m telling you again if you care to listen. Akin to historically significant and rare super cars, special watches are going to explode.

Data segmentation and subtask annotation is key to reusing messy data from deployment and evaluation but takes immense time. @interlatent segments, annotates, and scores episodes to be reused during training. demo fully automated, no human supervision

Looping is dead. Long live tranching. Looping has been at the center of DeFi for the last 2 years. It's a great deal at first glance... higher yields while underwriting the same risks (albeit with leverage). If you are confident Ethena isn't going to blow up, well, you might as well loop that to get 15% APR. But what's happened now is something that most loopers hadn't expected. They're earning -100% APR. Nothing has changed with Ethena. What's changed is the borrowing rates...leaving loopers stuck in deeply unprofitable positions. This is painful! A single weekend (like this past one) can wipe out months (or years) of returns, from a risk that most folks aren't even underwriting. This all comes from rates being unpredictable... a looper can't know when Aave's rates will skyrocket or when they'll get stuck and be wiped out. You're not just underwriting Ethena. You're underwriting the constantly changing borrowing market. So what now? People still want 15% yields, and they're going to get them somehow. But looping as a vehicle is broken. Tranching is what replaces it. Take any yield source, split it into a secure senior and a first-loss junior, and the junior gets looped-like returns without any borrow-rate exposure. No getting stuck. No negative carry. This is exactly why Royco is built the way it is. The proof is live. Participants in the junior tranches of Avant, Neutrl, AutoUSD, Smokehouse USDC, SyrupUSDC, and USDai have been earning 1.2-5x the underlying yield source, without the tail risk that just collapsed looper portfolios. And there are a lot more pools going live soon. For folks thinking about portfolio construction, feel free to DM - happy to chat about the advantages of tranching.

My favorite Jeff quotes from the Hyperliquid article: "Losing is a pretty common experience, most people are losers. There’s usually only one winner." “If you’re not the first person doing something, it’s probably not worth your time to be doing it at all." “I think people are just a bit too soft in general” "Be very confident you’re going in the right direction, and execute well on the step you’re taking right now, without knowing exactly where you’re going."
