Voilà. C'est donc le moment de bascule. Souvenez-vous bien que la même plateforme Playstation s'apprête à SUPPRIMER une liste de 550 films des comptes d'utilisateurs qui les avaient "achetés" sous forme digitale. Désormais, à tout moment, ces compagnies pourront vous sucrer un jeu/film.

There is something inherently satisfying to see your obsidian repo, and see the remaining work to be done visually. The "garden" metaphor is really true here

The best framework for thinking about AI and suality is not automation theory. It's restaurant vs homemade food. Homemade tart for friends ≠ opening a restaurant. Same ingredient, completely different ambition. Most people using AI don't know which one they're cooking.

Cloudflare launched /crawl this week. One API call, full site scraped, no browser management. They've also been selling the bot protection that would block exactly that.

I'm not saying GenAI is a revolution. I'm just saying that up until last week I had never written more than 2 lines of LaTeX. I have now written 2 professional documents in important contexts. And I am starting to see why some people are addicted.

We've all heard "SaaS is dead" enough times. Recently I read multiple people developing something more specific: Nicolas Bustamante from the software side, Ben Thompson from the hardware side, @johnonolan.bsky.social about open source. Different starting points. Same direction.

We adopt frameworks whole because the alternative used to be unthinkable. Then one engineer and ~$1,100 in tokens produced a drop-in Next.js on Vite in a week. Same API surface. 4x faster builds, 57% smaller bundles.

Google released AlphaFold 2 open-source in 2021 : protein structure prediction for everyone. Then AlphaFold 3 came out last year, but locked down : commercial use forbidden. Four months later, three MIT students rebuilt it and put it on GitHub. They called it Boltz.

It’s cringe to see successful companies that have nothing to do with AI rebrand themselves as “an AI platform” because they think it will somehow help them. Workday is a HR platform. Sure, they added AI features like everyone else but it was never “built with AI at the core”

The interesting part is how when Deep Research first came out by OpenAI, I paid for the $200 plan just to show it... and was blown away A few days later, Perplexity launched their version in the $20/package... was also good Now ChatGPT moved it to $20/mo one Competition fantastic for customers!
