SpaceX is effectively buying Cursor, but only if the partnership works. That is the entire story. The terms are: Cursor builds on SpaceX compute. If the result is good enough, SpaceX buys Cursor for $60 billion. If not,…

Every time we vibe code an internal tool at Bland, we end up buying the commercial version of it a few months later. It always starts the same way, with someone on the team having a workflow problem that in any previous…

Tim Cook's last day at Apple today. If you go back and read the old iPhone reviews, people were mad the keyboard had no keys. It couldn't copy and paste. There was no App Store, so the phone did what it did and that was…

Everyone (i mean everyone) has been to the grocery store and gotten in the “wrong” line. I’m in a line that isn’t moving, the one next to me looks faster, so I switch. Then my old line starts moving and the new one stall…

If you got the email from Amazon AGI today, I’m sorry. It’s a brutal way to find out how the company valued work that, from everything I’ve seen, was genuinely good. We’re hiring at Bland. Pretraining, data curation, mo…
