Six Things I Learned Watching a Robotics Startup Die from the Inside | Rui XuBuilding it meant assembly, components, actuators, multiple Chinese CMs for fabrication. Each one meant separate negotiations on pricing, quality standards, MOQs, production scheduling, across currencies, time zones, and business cultures that operate on completely different assumptions about how deals work.
Six Things I Learned Watching a Robotics Startup Die from the Inside | Rui XuThere’s this belief going around that AI models are getting so good that hardware can afford to be dumb. Sensors? The model will figure it out from vision. Safety limits? The policy will learn to avoid them.

What the humans like is responsiveness - by Sasha ChapinA sign that responsiveness is important is that when people don’t have it, they go out and get it
What the humans like is responsiveness - by Sasha ChapinFor most of us, saying that we’re cogs in a machine would significantly over-credit our influence.
What the humans like is responsiveness - by Sasha ChapinHe is remarkably compelling, largely because he seems captivated by everyone and everything around him. Everywhere he goes, there is more ambient energy. He is almost universally desired and liked, and he’s enjoyed a kind of meteoritic success that makes people suspicious until they meet him and are charmed like everyone else.
What the humans like is responsiveness - by Sasha Chapinunless you genuinely love people and are comfortable in your own skin, it’s a really hard trick to pull off
What the humans like is responsiveness - by Sasha Chapinshe replies in a way that makes it clear she’s listened to you with every ounce of her
What the humans like is responsiveness - by Sasha ChapinWhen you say anything at all, she turns her whole person towards you, and you are the fixed point of the universe.
What the humans like is responsiveness - by Sasha ChapinTalking with her is like dancing lead with a really good follow. And dancing with a really good follow is fantastic.
What the humans like is responsiveness - by Sasha ChapinHe writes about how many people resist being kinded unless they are in dire need. We often know how to give care, but can be much worse at receiving it.
becoming yourself is a social project - by majaWith more drafts in the works, more of the world will pop alive.
Speed matters: Why working quickly is more important than it seems « the jsomers.net blogPart of the activation energy required to start any task comes from the picture you get in your head when you imagine doing it. It may not be that going for a run is actually costly; but if it feels costly, if the picture in your head looks like a slog, then you will need a bigger expenditure of will to lace up.
Speed matters: Why working quickly is more important than it seems « the jsomers.net blogit's exhausting merely thinking about giving work to someone slow
Speed matters: Why working quickly is more important than it seems « the jsomers.net blogIf you work quickly, the cost of doing something new will seem lower in your mind.

Dispelling Beauty Lies: The Truth About Feminine BeautyFor instance, critics condemned William Etty's Venus and her Satellites (below) as pornographic in the 1830s
Dispelling Beauty Lies: The Truth About Feminine BeautyI try to prioritize in a way that generates momentum. The more I get done, the better I feel, and then the more I get done. I like to start and end each day with something I can really make progress on.
Productivity - Sam AltmanMy system has three key pillars: “Make sure to get the important shit done”, “Don’t waste time on stupid shit”, and “make a lot of lists”.

I say she took that and just ran with it—lugging home shopping carts’ worth of books from the university library, self-teaching everything she felt she lacked, doing her own research.

What "The Best" Looks Like | Alex KurilinWill state officials actually hold, or will they capitulate under federal pressure? Will courts issue injunctions and will anyone enforce them? Will mass mobilization be sustained over weeks, or will it dissipate? Will strikes impose enough economic cost to matter? Will any Republican officials defect, or will party discipline hold? Will the military refuse illegal orders, or will it comply?
Poets, Nurses, and Programmers | poetsandnursesIV. Three Points of Leverage
Poets, Nurses, and Programmers | poetsandnursesThe goal of organized action is not to appeal to the conscience of the powerful. It is to raise the costs of compliance until defection becomes the rational choice.
Poets, Nurses, and Programmers | poetsandnursesI think that most people are underestimating just how radical the upside of AI could be, just as I think most people are underestimating how bad the risks could be.
Dario Amodei — Machines of Loving GraceA counterintuitive fact about the highest-leverage projects is that they’re often not obviously high-leverage to most people in advance
Impact, agency, and taste | benkuhn.netyou need to keep careful track of the high-level context and priorities
Impact, agency, and taste | benkuhn.netwe’ve restricted the range by screening for extremely high-percentile technical ability, so the remaining differences, while they still matter, aren’t quite as critical. Instead, people’s biggest bottleneck eventually becomes their ability to get leverage
Impact, agency, and taste | benkuhn.netBeing able to live in the “world as it is,” rather than getting permanently fixated on the “world as it should be,” is a superpower. My heart is usually with the progressive team, politically, but I am sad to note that the classic aphorism is often true: “A liberal is someone who doesn’t understand the difference between is and ought.”
50 things I know - by Cate Hall - Useful FictionsThe most important thing to hire for is deeply giving a fuck, and no amount of money will get someone who doesn’t care to care.
50 things I know - by Cate Hall - Useful FictionsTaste honors someone’s standards of quality, but also the distinctive way the world bounces off a person. It reflects what they know about how the world works, and also what they’re working with in their inner worlds. When we recognize true taste, we are recognizing that alchemic combination of skill and soul. This is why it is so alluring.
Notes on “Taste” | Are.na Editorialyou can’t have taste by mistake. It requires intention, focus, and care
Notes on “Taste” | Are.na EditorialAppreciation is a form of taste. Creation is another.

Child’s Play, by Sam KrissHe’s scared he’s not doing the right thing, and because of the fucked-up world we live in, people who should be in The Hague are giving him twenty million dollars. Something bad is gonna happen here, something really fucking bad is gonna happen.
Child’s Play, by Sam KrissHe was clearly a highly agentic person, but what was all this agency being used for? What did he actually want?
Child’s Play, by Sam KrissI’m like Roy. I’m like Trump. We have the same swaggering energy. There is a kind of source code underlying reality, and this is what we understand. Your words have to have wings. Roy and I both know that social media is the last remaining outlet for self-creation and artistry.
Child’s Play, by Sam KrissAs far as he was concerned, the fact that tech people were tripping over themselves to take part in his stunt just confirmed his generally low impression of them. “They have too much money and nothing going on.
Child’s Play, by Sam KrissI really, really wish I was a tactical mastermind, that there was an endgame. Really I was just having a laugh. A chortle, if you will.
Child’s Play, by Sam KrissHe’d generated a brutally simplified miniature of the entire VC economy.
