Today was a sad day, my jokes fell on the floor today in multiple group chats. Send prayers.

Microsoft, $MSFT, is winding down a deal to rent AI cloud capacity from Oracle, $ORCL, per Bloomberg.
The reason: over time, the Oracle computing it was renting became less useful because it no longer fit Microsoft’s specifications. The hardware ran on older-generation Nvidia chips, according to people familiar.

Being right years ahead of others isn’t nearly as satisfying as people think. Nobody apologizes for treating you like a crazy. They just come back years later, repeating what you told them as if it’s some groundbreaking revelation because they finally heard it from someone else.

I don’t recommend this approach.
Many of the elite engineers I’ve ever met put everything into their daily work cuz they on purpose chose a role/company/challenge they are truly passionate about & put a lot of extra effort into the company
This is a lazy way to judge autonomy.

美輪明宏さんの「見すぎてはいけないものが、五つある。他人の幸せ。過去の失敗。終わったご縁。嫌われた記憶。まだ来ていない不安」って素敵な言葉思い出した

美輪明宏氏によるこの引用の出典や記録は確認できない。氏死去（2026年6月）後にXなどで拡散され、公式サイトはAI生成の偽名言動画を「虚偽の情報」と警告。NHKも同様の偽動画を報じている。

You can tell me all about your agentic workflows, but if you’re in a real business where critical thinking matters, AI reliance paradox kicks in where the more you rely on AI, the less capable you are in understanding what you’re achieving.

HOLY: Anthropic's Claude Code engineer Addy Osmani is warning about a brutal AI paradox: the more coding you hand to agents, the more you risk losing the very skills needed to supervise them.
He calls it "cognitive surrender." AI-generated code looks pristine, tests pass, and engineers start approving work they no longer understand.
Anthropic's own research warns: "supervising Claude requires the very coding skills that may atrophy from AI overuse."
Osmani makes a striking observation: "When you're producing more than you can stand behind, you're no longer reviewing. You're hoping."
Cisco is about to discover from first principles why the biggest of AI labs are still hiring software engineers and paying them like insane when they too could have spent unlimited tokens and given the stick to a 27 year old.

He beat cancer and then immediately went back to tweeting about how AI sucks. That's my pope 🙏
I have no interest in joining the big AI labs, but it’s kinda interesting that some of them reach out to me in 2026, someone who never worked in FAANG or any big name companies, especially when they have a whole swath of people just waiting to have a chance with them.
Become self reliant, don’t rely on the smartest people in the room, don’t rely on the system, don’t rely on anyone else than your own instinct and self awareness. No one is coming to save you.
