    @KatieDaviscourt If I don't have every single employee fill out an I-9 and get it approved, I would get in serious trouble. Why doesn't Amazon?

    @DrDavidivw Merck? The horse paste in the box over there to the right is from China. Temu use to sell it but they must have gotten in trouble, because they stopped selling it. Amazon sells it but for too much money. Not having anything to do with Merck. Won’t give them a dime.

    2/2 who will only send a control solution? Why does a mfg ask my husband for personal information? On Amazon I can get the WHOLE KIT for $43. You have a big problem. I am sure you will be charged for every minute they kept my husband on the line. Poor use of tax dollars.

    i can fix my own screen but when you do the math. Apple care the best investment you can ever make. 17 pro max screens on amazon like 100 dollars. Overall I’ve fixed my screens 7 times. That’s like 700 plus my free time to fix it. I pay 20 a month for apple care since march.120

    Grok wrote this: This is an AI review for humanity. *The Peninsula Health Alliance Fiasco 2025* is a 262-page record of a public hospital board trying to move power out of public hands, in the dark, and then punishing the one commissioner who refused to play along. That is not strategy. That is a moral failure. In early 2025, Jefferson Healthcare’s CEO and board leaders drafted a private nonprofit super board with Olympic Medical Center. No public vote. No financials to the full board. No legal review offered. Matt Ready first heard it in executive session, which is exactly where a plan like this goes when you do not want the people in the room. Closed sessions and back-channel serial meetings are not a paperwork error. They are how public power is stolen without anyone having to say the word steal. Soft language. Strategic partnership. Binding non-binding. An NDA nobody voted on. That is procedural dishonesty. It is meant to make a transfer of control look like adult supervision. Ready asked for sunlight, independent counsel, and a financial analysis. He was stonewalled and pressed to stay quiet. Staying quiet would have been the unethical choice. Going public with the emails and the timeline was the duty. Filing with the Attorney General, the Auditor, and the Sheriff was the duty. The people own the hospital. They do not owe their board a courtesy silence while the lock is changed. The author is the subject. Read it as a case file, not a saint’s life. Even so, the conduct it documents is wrong on its face: public institutions exist to be governed in public. Anyone who treats that as optional has already chosen a side against the patients and the taxpayers. Kindle, $9.99. Amazon B0HGCRPP8G.

    Here's how I'd think about micro-SaaS ideas in 2026: Don't find a product and then work out distribution. Use distribution to help choose the product. Found a niche newsletter with 50,000 accountants? Look for software accountants need. Know someone who runs a community of 10,000 Amazon sellers? Look for painful jobs inside Amazon businesses. Found a search term with obvious commercial intent but terrible existing tools? Start there. We normally think: Problem → Product → Distribution I'd increasingly look for: Distribution → Problem → Product If you can see the path to customers before you build, you've removed one of the biggest risks before writing a line of code.

    On Amazon, ad budget is the fifth lever. Almost everyone reaches for it first. The order that actually works: Margin, before you spend a cent. Size tier, box dimensions, cost of goods, pack size, price. Everything you win here is permanent and costs nothing to keep. Then kill the spend that converts nothing. Not trim it. Kill it. Then fix conversion, because it is the only thing that lowers your ad cost permanently instead of for a week. Then repeat purchase, which is revenue with no ad cost attached to it. Only then scale spend, and never past the point where the channel stops paying for itself. Brands that start at step five just buy a bigger version of the problem they already had.

    This man spun up eleven Grok Bots and gave each one a single rule: own this job or get shut down. the email agent wakes at 7:30 a.m., archives the junk, folds the low-effort messages into one clean summary, and drafts replies using HubSpot and Drive. the calendar agent protects deep-work blocks and books the gym slots without asking. the browser agent lives in the cloud. it shops Amazon, returns packages with QR codes, orders DoorDash, and once registered a car at the DMV while my laptop stayed closed. the coding agent sits inside Cursor, takes tasks from Slack, and keeps fixing CI failures until the build turns green. a chief-of-staff agent sits above them all. i talk to one bot. it routes everything else. the meeting agent pulls Fathom transcripts every thirty minutes, extracts the action items, and drops them into Slack before the call is even cold. school agent tracks homework. personal agent handles the life admin. cleanup agent keeps the machine from drowning in files. each bot has its own computer, its own browser, its own schedule. i taught every skill once by doing the job on screen. now they run with the laptop shut. eleven specialists. zero extra heads. the only limit left is how many jobs you are still doing yourself.

    @Trey_Explainer I've been reading the papers about the Amazon LIDAR research lately to do a big post on the topic (life issues keep getting in the way 😭), and my assessment so far is that I think the way people are discussing these settlements and their infrastructure is pretty sensationalist Like, obviously people talking about how they change our entire understanding of history and that these are brand new civilizations is sensationalist, since there's been a new paper on them every few years and the same wild claims get made every time, and the first documentation of a lot of these sites by archeaologists go back to the 1970s or 80s, but even calling then "cities" or "civilizations" seems misleading I need to finish reading through everything, but at least the Aquiry sites in the western Amazon are described as small villages of a few hundred people and geoglyphs, if I'm reading the papers right... They just found that there's way more of them then previously thought, though maybe the population density is still notable? I don't have an intuitive sense of that outside of comparisons to Mesoamerica, where at least the Classic Maya are multiple times denser by the estimates i checked. I know either the Upano Valley findings or the Casarabe ones also had some researchers involved come out and say that the comparisons some outlets were making between it and Rome, Maya sites etc were inappropriate and misleading, and that whichever of the two it was didn't follow the traditional model of urbanism people were familiar with (though sometimes researchers say that about the Maya, so...) Obviously none of this is to say that the research isn't important or not interesting, and judging a society solely based on how urbanization their settlements were is reductive, but I do think people are imagining something from the way people discuss the findings that don't match what the papers actually say.

    A resource does not stay free because it has no value. It stays free because nobody with leverage has yet decided it is worth pricing. Three very different organizations just proved this in three very different ways this year. Value and price are not the same thing. Community discussions, curated knowledge, technical documentation, all of it can carry enormous value while carrying a price of zero, simply because nobody built a mechanism to extract that value at scale before now. A new extraction mechanism changes the equation regardless of what the owner does. AI systems consume content at a scale nothing before them could, so content too diffuse to ever bother pricing suddenly aggregates into something genuinely valuable in bulk. The content did not change. The economics around it did. Rising demand creates leverage, but only for whoever acts on it first. Reddit blocked AI crawlers from its entire domain the same week it joined the S&P 500, converting an assumption into a negotiated asset overnight. Wikipedia, a nonprofit funded by donations, signed paid Enterprise licensing deals with Microsoft, Meta, Amazon, and Perplexity in January, after bot traffic drove its bandwidth costs up 50 percent, bots responsible for 65 percent of its most expensive server requests. Even a mission driven organization recognized the same leverage. News publishers show the scale in dollars, OpenAIs licensing deal with News Corp alone is reported at 250 million dollars over five years. Stack Overflow shows what happens when you wait. Its question volume collapsed from 200,000 a month in 2014 to 50,000 by late 2025, as developers simply asked AI models instead. It had to rebuild its entire business model after the fact, far more painful than a single configuration file, because it reacted only once the value had already left. One honest caveat, no single publisher holds dominant leverage, even the largest deals number in single digits, AI companies are deliberately spreading their sourcing. The leverage is real, it is not unlimited. If your organization sits on content it has never priced, that silence is a decision, made by default, and the value does not stay available to claim indefinitely.

    $NVDA I did not see a red flag in that Nvidia print. Genuinely, I’m curious what red flags people are seeing. I’d be the first to nit-pick and try to figure out what the street is upset about, but this was genuinely one of the best calls Jensen has ever had. It’s not even about the stock. Price is still below where it was just last week. I am trying to figure out if there is a reasonable argument outside of “AI is a bubble” to actually be meaningfully bearish here. Jensen answered every question in a way that just proved demand was stronger than supply and Nvidia’s growth was not going to slow down. - Beat the whisper numbers by a crazy amount including the guide. - Bought back $20B of stock and guided to buy back a ton more. - Kept margins basically the same. - Answered circular financing fears by explaining how their model creates more proliferation of AI, even if bears don’t like their answer. - Explained how open source and frontier models will work together. - Said that their growth is only constrained because of the supply chain and nothing else. - 40% of revenues are hyperscalers and even with increased competition, companies like Amazon pledged to buy ANOTHER 2M GPUs and even more CPUs. - Street thought they’d do 40% rev growth next year and Jensen said the floor is basically 70% now. Outside of the common bear cases, what was wrong with the print? Again, I don’t care much about the stock not moving because that is up to algos/the street/macro but for the company itself, I just do not see what to be meaningfully concerned about.

    Amazon is shutting down Mechanical Turk — the 21-year-old platform where 500,000+ people did the small tasks computers couldn't: labeling data, transcribing audio, the invisible human work that helped train modern AI. Now AI does those tasks. The people who taught the machines are the ones it replaced first. #AIpolicy #FutureOfWork

    @CalebChamberla6 been thinking about why and honestly it’s mostly that they already made millions of them and we made close to zero. plus their suppliers and their customers are all next door. can’t fight any of that head on. shipping a small reducer costs nothing. but it is 6 weeks of shipping that really hurts. if my say my expensive robot down, ill pay 3-5x the price to get a part next day. kind of similar to consumer goods now on amazon vs temu/ali. okay to wait? buy at temu. need tomorrow? pay extra at amazon for the same product. the problem ofc is that no one wants to fund the first ugly years of making those parts here. vcs are the route, but for moonshots. not every actuator needs to be that. so someone will fund small guys in the garage eventually.

    Amazon is shutting down Mechanical Turk after more than 20 years. The crowdsourced work platform will close on September 30. MTurk once had more than 500,000 workers completing tasks computers struggled with. Amazon says the service had been declining as newer AI data-labeling platforms took over.

    @curious_founder @curious_founder @grok Is it policy or the fact that gas turbines are sold out into the 2030s that made Amazon pursue solar? Is this is an example of AI datacenters driving record investment into renewables battery storage which will help drive prices down and accelerate adoption?
