put me in coach
Billionaire Palmer Luckey on why he only flies coach
“I don’t fly private and do fly coach,” billionaire founder of Anduril and Oculus Palmer Luckey says. “For me, it’s a reasoned thing. With exceptions for long, international travel, we only cover coach travel for our employees — it’s only a few hours, and it’s a very bad use of company money for us to be buying business or first-class for people. Because we have so much travel at the company, we could easily spend a very serious fraction of our resources on people traveling instead of slightly better seats.”
To lead by example, Palmer will fly coach — even when he uses his own money:
“People say, ‘Well, why don’t you just fly first-class?’ And here’s why: if I’m going to ask my employees to do it, I need to do it too — even when it’s my own money. It’s not that I would appear out of touch, I would literally be out of touch. Maybe one day coach gets so bad that I literally tell everyone, ‘I hear you, we’re all going business now.’ But today is not that day.”
He continues:
“I love the back of the plain by the window. Nobody bothers you. You can let everyone get off the plane before you. You don’t have to fight anybody . . . And my grandpa was a pilot for United Airlines for over 40 years. So I also grew up around commercial airlines and to me there is a certain romanticism to mass-market, mass-available air travel. What an incredible thing. And we did it — America did it! We figured out how to make it economically viable, and we build everyone else’s airplanes. It is an American thing.”

the bottleneck to vibe coding on the phone is pulling out a laptop to create a new @github repo
github, let my people vibe!

Just had Claude code write a db query optimization using the iOS app, previewed the change in Vercel, & then merged the PR — all from my phone
Opus 4.5 is a magnum opus

I genuinely vibe code in bed with Claude Code in their iPhone app most evenings now
If you're hacking on web stuff you can even configure Cloudflare preview deploys on PRs and try out what it's working on that way github.com/simonw/tools/pull…
re: the Ilya interivew
Ilya said humans spend significant cognitive resources to determine social dynamics — even people who have mental / emotional issues can reason about social dynamics
he's been burned twice — by SamA & Daniel Gross, so he's more attuned to these things now
prediction markets are turning open source intelligence (OSINT)
into an intelligence agency
look at pizzint.watch/polyglobe and tell me this isn't the future
