Honestly, I loved the flicker. Felt very sci-fi. Will be missed

We’ve rewritten Claude Code’s terminal rendering system to reduce flickering by roughly 85%. We wanted to share more about why this was so difficult, how the fix works and how we used Claude Code to fix it 🧵

Proud to be an early backer of Novig. Asked to invest immediately after one day of using the amazing product that @j__fort , @kelechisms, and their team have built. Wildly better experience than FanDuel, DraftKings, and Kalshi

RIP Tom Lehrer. The Audubon Society must be breathing a sigh of relief right now.

Are these companies going to make it, or are they going to get crushed? I call the determining criteria Hide-Fight-Run. I wrote about that at

Licensed New York sports-books like FanDuel and MGM pay 51% tax on gross revenue; these sweepstakes betting companies pay 0%. That's clearly not sustainable.

Sweepstakes gambling is that taken to the extreme. You buy virtual currency (which has no value and cannot be exchanged) and, alongside, get a different form of virtual currency that can be exchanged back for cash.

First, a brief overview of what "sweepstakes" betting is. Remember the McDonald's Monopoly game? You buy something that is not a lottery ticket (food) and they give you a lottery ticket where you can win free fries or some money.

A dozen startups have launched or pivoted, taking advantage of what they see as a goldmine of legislative loopholes. What's going to happen to these companies? Are there generalizable rules to when pushing the regulatory envelope can work?

A few months later, they pivoted and were suddenly able to launch a quasi-legal sports-book in 40+ states, including California, Florida, New York, and Texas. They are not alone.

I've been mulling this over as I've seen the rapid rise of online sweepstakes-based sports betting sites. I met a sports-book founder in February who was going through the insanely arduous process of getting licensed state-by-state.

Other companies - Napster, Cerebral, Juul - got big, only to collapse underneath the laws they broke. Why are some gray-area companies able to reach escape velocity while others crash and burn?

Startups are known for moving fast and breaking things. Sometimes, the things broken are rules, and sometimes, it works. Uber, DraftKings, and Airbnb famously stretched and skirted laws, ultimately reaching a size where they were able to lobby and push for legitimization.
