No AI lab has a moat. Not OpenAI, not Anthropic, not Google. Leadership decays on a half-life measured in weeks, and now the race includes who IPOs first. Here's why 'moat' is the wrong word for what's happening in AI, and how to actually position for it: open.substack.com/pub/hedgeh…

Trump's tariff talk is so economically and mathematically illiterate that no sentient being should take it seriously. But sadly, some people do. For them, @scottlincicome very patiently walks through how tariffs work, and how Trump's idea would not. thedispatch.com/newsletter/c…

🚨 OMG Ralph Baric just confirmed everything I and others have been saying about DEFUSE for years! Including validation with live full length viruses. Moreover, he mentions feline coronavirus as the rationale for studying FCSes! And SARS2 looks the final product of his description — it has the “knocked out” version of the FIPV FCS, exactly the PRRAR found in several FIPV strains published in a 2013 paper about the role of FCS mutations in FIPV pathogenicity. This is a 💣
1/ Baric on DEFUSE: "We were fundamentally interested in why sarbecoviruses didn't have a furin cleavage site" (P 193-194) 🙂This "fundamental" question turned out to have an amazingly simple answer... @ydeigin @mitch_benzine

Here is George Clooney’s response after Trump accused him of being a "Hollywood elite." "Here’s the thing: I grew up in Kentucky. I sold insurance door-to-door. I sold ladies’ shoes. I worked at an all-night liquor store. I would buy suits that were too big and too long and cut the bottom of the pants off to make ties so I’d have a tie to go on job interviews. I grew up understanding what it was like to not have health insurance for eight years. So this idea that I’m somehow the “Hollywood elite” and this guy who takes a shit in a gold toilet is somehow the man of the people is laughable. People in Hollywood, for the most part, are people from the Midwest who moved to Hollywood to have a career. So this idea of “coastal elites” living in a bubble is ridiculous. Who lives in a bigger bubble? He lives in a gold tower and has twelve people in his company. He doesn’t run a corporation of hundreds of thousands of people he employs and takes care of. He ran a company of twelve people! When you direct a film you have seven different unions all wanting different things, you have to find consensus with all of them, and you have to get them moving in the same direction. He’s never had to do any of that kind of stuff. I just look at it and I laugh when I see him say “Hollywood elite.” Hollywood elite? I don’t have a star on Hollywood Boulevard, Donald Trump has a star on Hollywood Boulevard! Fuck you!" - George Clooney actor, philanthropist, humanitarian & activist
