Just built Tandem at the @BrainbaseHQ Startup Speedrun AI technical co-founder that deploys a true, live product from a plain-English brief in 30 seconds. 7 agents, 4 sponsors, all real infrastructure. tandem.boxfordpartners.com

“Offensive line has been absolutely dominant.” Starting QB hurt on the first drive. Collinsworth, ladies and gentlemen.

Built an AI visibility audit for #RotePlayoffs — one command scores any URL on how well AI assistants can find and cite your content. Ran it on our own site. 65/100. Content Citability: 3/25. Ouch. Then we fixed everything and hit 100. The before/after: aeo.boxfordpartners.com/befo…

works multiple times 🤷‍♂️

This asshole is back. tiktok.com/t/ZTULwysU3/

There NEEDS to be a faster way to get from the marina to downtown with public transit. Been on the 30 for 50 minutes and haven’t hit the Stockton tunnel yet.

What a morning. Evidently, my @owalalife bottle not quite as waterproof as I had been told. Spilled all over my clothes at @Equinox. Garment steamer? Broken. Spent 45 minutes drying everything with a dyson hair dryer.

Fight for those who can’t fight for themselves. THIS is why the U.S. got involved.

I'm seeing mayhem/people getting arrested trying to get the Audemars Piguet-Swatch collaboration. 1. If you are trying to impress someone by saying you have an AP, they more than likely don't know why that's significant. 2. If they do, they know that it's a Swatch.

Koepka's back 9 absolutely OBLITERATED my parlay.

The Orioles hit so many home runs off the Red Sox tonight that they ran out of fireworks in Baltimore. This is a real tweet.

NATO is in far bigger danger than anyone realizes. And the reason has nothing to do with defense budgets. The real danger is psychological. It’s cultural. Europeans didn’t just free-ride on American security for 80 years. They built an entire identity around the idea that they evolved past the Americans protecting them. That identity is now the single biggest obstacle to Western survival. And the darkest irony is: we helped build it. After World War II, Europe wasn’t just economically shattered. Its culture was in ruins. The cities, the universities, the concert halls, the museums. Rubble. The Marshall Plan rebuilt the economy. But culture wasn’t a priority. Not at first. Then the Iron Curtain dropped. And suddenly culture became a weapon. American diplomats, academics, artists & scholars flooded Western Europe. We funded their universities. Supported their orchestras. Rebuilt their museums. Promoted their intellectual life. Not because European culture needed saving for its own sake. Because Eastern Europeans were struggling for Maslow’s mist basic needs. We needed the view from the other side of that Wall to be intoxicating. So America built Western Europe into a showcase of self-actualization. Art. Philosophy. Cafe culture. Long vacations. Universities where people studied literature instead of surviving. We were manufacturing jealousy. And it worked. The Wall came down. But here’s what no one accounted for. When you give a society self-actualization on someone else’s tab long enough, they forget it was a gift. They start believing it was organically theirs. And when they look at the country that funded it all, a country busy building aircraft carriers and semiconductor fabs and shale fields instead of reaching the Maslow’s pinnacle. An overweight American in a ball cap who can’t tell Monet from Pissarro. Who eats fast food. Who drives a truck. Who builds strip malls instead of piazzas. And to a culture trained in aesthetics but stripped of strategic awareness, that American looks uncivilized. So the arrogance takes root. And once a culture decides another is beneath them, they stop listening. Americans say wars are sometimes necessary: crude. Oil is the backbone of prosperity: unsophisticated. Kids build companies in garages that reshape the planet: crass. Wall Street finances the global economy: vulgar. Europe has no world-class technology sector. No military capable of strong defense. No energy independence. No AI capacity. What Europe has is culture. The culture we paid for at the expense of us reaching Maslow’s pinnacle. For decades that was fine. We funded the museums, protected the sea lanes, and tolerated the sneering because the arrangement worked. Then Europeans stopped keeping the contempt private. They started saying it to our faces. In their media. In their parliaments. At every international forum. “Americans are stupid. Americans are violent. Americans are a threat to democracy.” We could have moved the Louvre to NY. We could have built a Venice here. We could have stolen your best artists, designers, philosophers and more… like your conquering armies did for centuries. Instead we funded them. And all we asked for in return was to let us visit. You don’t have the military to defend your borders. You don’t have the technology to compete. You don’t have the energy to heat your homes without begging dictators. What you have is an 80-year superiority complex FUNDED BY AMERICANS, protected by American soldiers, and built on the false belief that self-actualization is civilization. It isn’t. Civilization is the ability to sustain itself. By that measure, Europe isn’t a civilization at all. It’s a dependency with better wine. That’s not a threat. It’s a weather report. Build a Navy. Or don’t. But stop lecturing the people who made you “better than us” Our “crudeness” our “stunted liberal education” our “ugly strip malls” are because we sacrificed our culture to support yours.

Not a bad little quake. Magnitude 5 it sounds like?

So I'm watching 2001: A Space Odyssey for the first time in a long time. The only thing that I've found unrealistic was that they were flying Pan-Am.

I am currently at the Corgi Cafe in SF, and just talked about Richard Feynman and CERN for about 30 minutes. I didn't have that on my bingo card at 2am on a Wednesday.

Heading to San Jose for an AI Developers Conference reminds me of a scene from Rounders. This will end up feeling like the Chesterfield South.

A lesser known role in one of my personal favorites... share.google/AcK0kuvGXRJ75IR…

As I get ready for my first Tiesto show in over a decade, I was just thinking about the fact Sarah McLachlan, an accomplished Canadian singer, is most well known for Silence and ASPCA ads.

Decided to mix it up, went to a hackathon today. I cannot think of anything that is a bigger waste of my time and energy.

How it takes @lyft more than a handful of minutes for a pickup downtown is crazy to me. To wait 10 minutes for a 12 minute walk is bananas.
