8 years of meditation and @Headspace. 🧘‍♂️. Thanks for getting me started, @andypuddicombe and team. I could barely sit through 3 minutes of silence back when I'd started but I persisted luckily. 🙂

Now that I have entered my 30s, I am amsued recalling how I used to look at 30 year olds as a 20-something wanting to take on the world. There's immense value in internalizing that respect has to be earned at every point in life and past accomplishments mean jack shit. 🫡.

From trying gpt-5 for the last several hours now I will say:. I cant tell much of a difference between it and o3. It is an always reasoner as far as i can tell. Might feel like a bit bigger model, but smaller and not as good as 4.5 on tasks that arent benefitted by reasoning.

Found this generally interesting - a visualization showing variance in division of security responsibility between a cloud provider (@googlecloud in this case) and the customer for type of offerings - on-prem/IaaS/PaaS/FaaS

> a niche feature that was built as part of the Codex product had the same GPU cost footprint as our entire Segment infrastructure (not the same scale as ChatGPT but saw a decent portion of internet traffic). 🤯.

I have always been proud, mistakenly perhaps, of being a blunt person with high integrity and pain threshold. I now realize that's not the prototype for a successful persona in any team sport with varying incentives unless you are an outlier on the skill axis.
