  • Had another solid session in cursor with Claude 3.7 and Gemini 2.5. Getting closer to launch, can really feel it. I think I only have like 100 more polish items, so it’s really getting close now.
  • First genuinely warm day in nyc for me. 77 and sunny. Excellent. Love to walk around this time of year. Feeling the city start to come alive after winter. Amazing stuff. New York living is a grind in many ways, but there are some moments, and I mean moments, where it is truly sublime. Going to be hard to leave in a month.
  • I still wonder if AI will lead to a decentralization in the app layer. On the one hand, no, obviously this will not happen. Centralization is largely a financial maneuver, where firm consolidation supports establishing pricing power and sustaining high margins. Even if AI allows more people to start businesses, it doesn’t follow that this meaningfully changes the long term benefits of centralization. Oops, much more to write here but meeting up with a friend. Hopefully you figure it out without me!
