If you're truly building at the frontier, you should expect your priors to be wrong with reasonable probability. Conversely, if the outcomes of your bets stop surprising you, it means you should push harder and make bolder bets.

AI marketing will yield initial boosts, but the edge is quickly lost once everyone starts doing it. You then are pushed to do crazier things to grab people's finite attention: meet in person, do a stunt, cheat on your interview etc.,. Might need emails to bid $ to be read.
I get so many emails every day that it's becoming unmanageable. If I reply "no thanks", the sender tries to convince me otherwise. If I don't reply, I get a "just bumping this up" email. Each email seems like it's (at least somewhat) custom written for me, so the spam filter.

Building, inspecting, and deploying MCP servers has never been *easy* until now. npm create smithery.npm run dev. Run your local server in the Smithery Playground alongside the 8,000 other servers on our platform. One-click deploy at

We're launching Smithery Playground 🛝 - the most ergonomic place for you to explore, test, and debug MCPs!. 1. See how models interact with multiple MCPs.2. Drill down and inspect MCP traces in Dev Console.3. Connect to MCPs running on localhost. 👇

Subtraction is as important as addition.
Lot of smart people exploring memory in the context of AI products (many at @southpkcommons) but I'm increasingly interested in the role of forgetting. Social relationships, attention management, formation of expertise—what we forget seems as important as what we remember.

The best way to interact with MCPs is through an agent.
The default MCP inspector is super cool, but how do you know what prompts to even send to a server? . @arjunkmrm is cooking up a prompt showcase for servers on @SmitheryDotAI. What else would help you trust an MCP server?

Every time I visit SF, I improve my taste. Every time I go to Singapore, I become locked in and ship faster.

The most interesting thing about MCP isn't the protocol itself, but rather a paradigm shift where services will focus on building the best "agent experience", rather than just "user experience". We're only seeing the beginnings of this new ecosystem, and it's already promising!.
MCP is proving sticky: usage numbers are growing steadily, month over month. We saw an all time high of 7.4m estimated downloads of local MCP servers across the ecosystem last month. This is all still hamstrung by so-so MCP server implementation quality and the spec having
