This skill is amazing.
Used Opus 5.5 to build a visual proving most data centers run closed water loops. They don't consume water. Everyone's arguing about a problem that's already solved.
Introducing Anatomy
Describe a machine in one line. Claude brings it to life.
- Interactive isometric wireframes you can rotate, inspect and explore
- WebGL shaders for fire, water, plasma and more
- Real 3D motion, with individual parts that rotate and move
Install it as an agent skill. Fully open source.

My rough prediction here is there's going to be two types of companies:
1. Companies that are ok with basically being an API - they expose an MCP, skills, embrace your agents
2. Companies that charge a ton for API access, try to get you using their own agents,
Companies will gravitate to #2 because being API only is scary / feels very replaceable opening opportunities for #1 companies to replace them because they're more agent native
I don't have a good answer for what the moat is for #1 companies but it's how I want to be using software
Me reading this Kimi K3 technical report from @Kimi_Moonshot
Releasing the model weights and technical report of Kimi K3.
Kimi K3 is our most capable model: a 2.8T MoE model with native visual understanding and a 1M-token context window.
New model architecture: 2.5x the intelligence per unit of compute, not just more params.
Alongside Kimi K3, we're opening up more of the stack behind it — high-performance attention kernels, MoE communication library, and infrastructure for running agent environments at scale.

.@BiltRewards might have the worst customer service in fintech right now. The Wells Fargo → Bilt 2.0 transition has been a disaster and support is just outsourced scripts with zero solutions.
What else is out there for rent pay?

I wrote about an emerging construction platform opportunity - how a "Model Context Layer" could become the App Store for construction robotics by solving the fragmentation crisis where every robot speaks a different language.

Yes. And this chart. Please update your priors on nuclear if anything here is surprising.

This is the best, most interesting and saddest (!) presentation I have witnessed at any conference. Hard to be all three.
@bgurley torches the political class and calls out some superior forms of corruption he’s witnessed during his business career.
Must. Watch.

Good piece: "There is one obvious answer. China needs to fundamentally reorientate its economy away from the current over-reliance on investment and towards greater consumer spending."
But it is important to know how this works.

MYTH: We don't have a solution to nuclear's "waste problem"
REALITY: Nuclear waste isn't a problem. In fact, it’s the best solution we have to meeting our energy needs while protecting the natural environment!
