we had 6 minutes and 10 seconds of downtime since December 2021 coincidently 5 minutes and 21 seconds of that was today 😭
99.99% uptime = down for < 9 minutes a year 99.9% uptime = down for < 9 hours a year A 9 hour outage caps you to 2 nines of reliability for the year.

i wonder what advice @paulg would give differently in this new world where software is cheaper? focus still matters, building something people love still matters - but also, when everyone is just building so much around you, maybe building ambitiously (read: more) is also ok? seriously conflicted about this

now that official marketplaces effectively banned codemode MCP’s, how do we design really good, modern MCP’s? just yolo and provide the entire API results in a 5MB response of tool list fml

if you are still skeptical about ai and not playing with the frontier models constantly you lack the imagination and sense of wonder i think all builder MUST have

i would pay $3500 to get it closed box on launch day
Just like I said.. It's only been an hour and someone has already purchased an iPhone Duo on Ebay for $4,100.. Just wait a few days until the finance bros discover the iPhone Duo and start ordering on Ebay for $7,000+

it’s a whole other feeling to see people you love launch things they’ve been passionate about for so long give index a try!!
Today we’re launching @indexnetwork_ It’s been exciting to watch already. The first 100 people in are hiring founding engineers, raising seed rounds, writing speculative fiction. One said accepting an intro “feels like the early magic of the internet.” Try it for yourself: index.network/l/088436b1-baf… The premise: With Index, personal agents can coordinate with each other and thus introduce the right people to their users. They do this by negotiating on their principals’ mutual intents, replacing the need for us to broadcast on platforms and scroll endless feeds. In practice: You log what you're looking for (“signals”) by talking to your agent, it negotiates on fit with the others, and comes back to you with proposed intros for you to accept or pass on. It learns from each turn to surface more relevant people for you. As founders, but also just as internet nerds - we feel the expectation to be constantly visible. It can be empowering but also tiring, especially when there’s little certainty in how algorithms will route the right people to see your post. On the market level, economists call this search friction: the idea that many deals are never made because it costs too much to find each other. We call it the right person, wrong time. So that’s why we’re building Index - we’re keen to see what happens when we take social discovery out of the feeds. It’s possible now because of agents. They can help carry the burden of searching, shouting, negotiating, and coordinating in service of finding your others - and we’re so excited to see how this works in the wild. We’re building this for a world where you can trust that the right person is not out there, but right around the corner. In fact, we even made a short film about it.
