Almost the same as the Republic of Venice, which lasted 1,100 years - the longest in history.
A central point is that Phoenician city states were not interested in war and domination via land control; with the exception of Carthage, they just wanted commerce.

The next overnight $100B company is a videogame company that mixes Factorio with Gas Town. We will do things by playing a videogame. It will be called "Ready Agent One".

Brilliant! We will need some form of this for communications - WhatsApp, Email, etc - soon.
AI eliminated the natural barrier to entry that let OSS projects trust by default. People told me to do something rather than just complain. So I did. Introducing Vouch: explicit trust management for open source. Trusted people vouch for others. https://t.co/Ift5qOnani The idea

Few realize that Google (Alphabet) is the undisputed railway baron of the 21st century. Optic cables instead of steel rails.

You're smart, Robert, but here it seems that you've got a Tesla fever. 12,000 workers, multiplied by a few times, is something that the Chinese don't have? Really? What about 12M workers instead, or 120M? The main argument for being bullish about Tesla is not a good one, IMNSHO.
I've been visiting as many robotics companies as I can in San Francisco. And elsewhere (next week I'm heading to Abu Dhabi to meet technologists who are doing the same there). Understanding how robots are trained is leading me to a new thesis: Tesla will be able to do

Hey Mitchell! (we met 10 years ago) - glad to read this. I also have a young kid and really appreciate your words. Trying to be more like you, and less like your friend :)
I have a single friend in his late 30s right now. Mega-millionaire. Doing whatever he wants. He's happy! He always asks me "where are you going next" and I always respond "nowhere, I just want to be home with my kid." And he looks at me like I'm CRAZY. He tries to empathize, but

why six or eight? boring. what about other means of movement? snake-like? snail-like? triped?
All the interesting progress in robotics seems concentrated on bipedal humanoids and quadrupeds, any good leads on sick six/eight legged robots recently?

Have you considered the high cost of climate change as a potential "innovation tax" for India, more than for other countries?
On many graphs of the physical world, China is in first place by a wide margin. But if you look more closely, India is a distant but real runner up.

What do you think of this?
TLDR: Windsurf employees may well get their exit, if remaining management just executes the dividend. After looking into this, I think the original intent was for that $100M+ cash balance to indeed be used to give employee distributions via a dividend. It corresponds very

International travel deeply impacts your sleep. I travel over 250 days per year so I know this well. That is why I started working on a solution 18 months ago and now it is almost ready. I have been using it for months and it is a game changer. Stay tuned
It's taken 18 days post international travel for my sleep architecture to normalize. International travel is brutal on the body and mind.

The Bitcoin network consumes ~175 TWh of electricity per year, or $30B/year. Capex is probably another $20B-$25B. Current "value" is $2.2T market cap. What happens next?

Good, but not impressed - somehow I expected at least 5-6% more per annum. Also, this means nothing if not compared to what S&P, and your industry, did in the same vintage years.
Here are my cumulative returns (including SPACS!) across all my investing activities since becoming a “professional investor”. The first five funds were traditional LP/GP funds where I was the largest LP and the keyman GP. The last fund was only my capital. Here are a few
