Anyone who just made generational wealth on this SpaceX IPO, firstly congrats, secondly, hit me up if you're interested in investing in the cultural infrastructure that will produce the conditions to actually get us to Mars. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

The sheer scale of a trillion dollars can be hard to comprehend. Let me put it in perspective. You would be able to buy 42 miles of high speed rail in California with that much money.
The sheer scale of a trillion dollars can be hard to comprehend. Let me put it in perspective. You would have to earn a dollar a year for a trillion years straight to have that much money.

Good.
The US government, citing national security authorities, has issued an export control directive to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether inside or outside the United States, including foreign national Anthropic employees. The net effect of this order is that we must abruptly disable Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all our customers to ensure compliance. Access to all other Claude models is not affected. We apologize for this disruption to our customers. We believe this is a misunderstanding and are working to restore access as soon as possible. Read our full statement: anthropic.com/news/fable-myt…

Standard operating procedure at this point.

On the Western "fertility crisis." Caged animals in zoos reproduce at much lower rates than wild counterparts. Zoos even resort to artificial insemination. Now look at "white-collar man." Is his office/smartphone, where he must be available 24/7, like putting him in a zoo?

Related: It’s basically inherently unwritable but the History of Group Chats is up there as one of the most interesting pieces/books yet to be written. Iykyk but civilizational-level *things* have emerged/been negotiated/organized in the depths of obscure or opportunistic GCs
I would love for someone to write the long form book / post on corporate dark arts embodied in the world class EAs calendar snooping, insane politicking, true edge cases of travel and scheduling, soft power logistics, lies and damned lies, etc
