"It is time for our industry to pause and take a moment to think... Otherwise, come 2020, Silicon Valley will have become an even bigger villain in the popular imagination, much like its East Coast counterpart, Wall Street." -@om newyorker.com/business/curre…

Context is all there is. Well worth a read, especially to put a name to concepts you've probably been intuiting.
Yesterday I gave a talk on “Context Fails & Fixes”, that functioned a bit on a general “State of Context Engineering”: where it came from, where it's gone, and where I think it's going. dbreunig.com/2026/10/24/the-…

What a branding mess: "SpaceXSI".

I wonder if this Bolsonaro operation will hurt Milei in the '27 elections. Seems a weird way to spend your political capital.

Flávio's departure doesn't prove guilt. But he promised to stay, then defied a court order. That undermines his credibility. He asks supporters to accept his denials while avoiding accountability in Brazil. Calling it persecution doesn't answer the financial questions. 22/22

A few thoughts on Flávio Bolsonaro's runaway week, now that he has arrived in Miami. For those following this circus from abroad, some of the context seems to be getting lost. There is more behind his departure than just the fact that he lost the election. 1/...

Flávio Bolsonaro is the Máximo Kirchner of Brazil.

Been a while since a progressive campaign really understood social media. Wonder if Lula's strategy will serve as a blueprint for others in LatAm: WhatsApp channels, memes, centralized strategy. thenation.com/article/world/…

Lula’s win is a good chance for Brazil (and LatAm) to rethink its relationship to US social media. They already launched Pix (during Bolsonaro’s presidency) and it’s been a huge success. The foundation for sovereign tech is there.

Obviously state-owned media is a problem so that’s a problem to solve, but any choice is better than the status quo: a foreign enterprise cozy with a hostile leader who thinks your democracy is illegitimate and just overthrew your neighbor.

Strange for Bolsonaro to dispute results based on the two-hour extension, after asking for it himself. "Bolsonaro’s campaign had separately also requested a two-hour extension for certain areas in southern Brazil hit by heavy rainfall." ft.com/content/29033fb9-2dc7…

In my case, I was asking for bulk data that they previously had published but then stopped. Then years after my request (post-BLM), they turned that same data feed back on. PD leadership obviously wanted to hide something.

Bad news for Meta. Great news for Orkut.

Big if true. But more importantly who is this account and how is he scooping these departures? Checked his timeline and the couple I saw were legit leaks.

Just found this set of multilingual TTS benchmarks. Can't wait for more Spanish dialects, esp. Rioplatense (Argentinian). 🇦🇷
Introducing five new languages on the Voice Arena TTS leaderboard. Models from @ElevenLabs rank #1 on all five of the new Voice Arena TTS leaderboards: French 🇫🇷, German 🇩🇪, Bahasa 🇮🇩, Tagalog 🇵🇭 and Indian English 🇮🇳. Eleven v4 Turbo takes the top position on four of the five boards. On Bahasa, ElevenLabs holds both #1 and #2, with Eleven v4 first and Eleven v4 Turbo second. Across five languages spanning Europe, Southeast Asia and South Asia, each judged only by native listeners, ElevenLabs finishes first on every board, ahead of the next-best model from another provider by 11 to 26 Elo points. Voice Arena ranks models through blind, head-to-head votes by vetted native speakers, scored with Bradley-Terry Elo. Board-by-board results below 🧵
