I know you said "for arguments sake" but only a small subset startups are in a 'whoever burns the most tokens wins' market. Disciplined product management still matters so much.

Full disclosure, I've never heard of it, but if it was number 1 for. 23 weeks I'm sure Ms. Carey wrote a fine tune.

Falcons are bleak. Start Rush all season. Get #1 draft pick. Trade #1 draft pick for our QB of the near term (Jackson, Burrows, Lawrence) and some other defensive picks. Be good next year.

It's weird that there is a substance used to make exactly two things: - Ice cream cones; and - Communion wafers.

If the Democrats can't figure out how to shut down Hasan Piker and trans attacks at this point then they deserve what they get. Unfortunately, *we* don't deserve what they get.

Astrophotographer Adam (AJ) Smadi caught this image a few hours ago from Washington state. A thin crescent Moon, sunlight illuminating the rugged lunar surface. And 2,400 times farther away—and on the other side of the Sun—mighty Jupiter, and its moons Io (left) and Ganymede (right).

A crescent Moon seen during the day, arcing from upper left to lower right of the frame. At lower centre is the full disk of Jupiter; the small dots to its upper left and lower right and Io and Ganymede, respectively.

Have you built a SaaS in Laravel and not shipped it? Or did you ship it and not get any traction, so you gave up? If so, I want to chat. Shoot me a DM and loan me 30 minutes of your time. I can't promise you anything other than a laugh or two, but I need to know where ships are sinking.

I assume you stopped using Cursor once Elon Musk bought it right? openai.com/index/our-de...

Clay Smith @davidclaysmith.com · 29/08/2026

openai.com/index/open-s... This looks interesting but: - built on Linear (which I don't use); - and Codex only (deal breaker) How about, now stay with me, one that: - uses Github issues; - runs locally (software not the LLM); - works with Codes, Claude, Agy, Glm, Kimi.

Can you imagine if a loved one woke you up from a deep sleep and said "IT HAPPENED". Only to learn neither JD Vance was president nor had The Winds of Winter come out. That would be bullshit.
