POPULARITY
Hosted by steve gillmor
It's Thursday evening, and I have had a busy day in a busy week, and I am not feeling the urge for grandiosity. But OpenAI and its CEO Sam Altman did announce some world-changing technologies this week. The article by Ben Thompson from Stratechery below lists them. Still, a list does not do justice to how much thinking decision-making, and execution OpenAI has accomplished in a short period. The heart of the announcements is a newly scalable architecture that allows anybody to have their own “GPT”. Developers will be able to build both enterprise and consumer GPT applications, often with no code required. Want the world's best chef and recipe source? Build it. Want an excellent tool for fixing a car? No problem. Want the world's best physics teacher for 10th Grade… done. And so on. Over the next 12 months, we expect to see an explosion of use cases for almost any human endeavor. More interesting is that user interfaces will change dramatically. Form filling, browsing, searching, learning, creating, researching, building, and more will be done simply by interacting with an AI. Productivity is about to explode. And investments, too. Packy McCormick leads this week's Essays of the Week with ‘Tech is Going to Get Much Bigger'. And he means in value and scope. The idea that the world's biggest company is worth a single-digit $ trillion will be history quickly. When Kyle Harrison, in another essay of the week - Surviving the Death of Venture Capital - says: So if you want to survive in the ever-changing world of funding innovation, there are a lot of things you can do. But one thing is for sure: the only thing that is certain? Change. Get used to it. He could have been writing about OpenAIs developer day announcements. There are many excellent pieces of writing in this week's edition. The impressive interview with Charlie Munger explains why venture capitalists screw their customers. The videos with Satya Nadella and Lina Khan are great for Sunday listening or viewing. Warner Media CEO Jason Kilar on why Netflix has the upper hand in streaming and what it will take to compete is compelling also (hat tip to Steve Gillmor). Enjoy. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thatwastheweek/message
#239 - Da Chi Ho ImparatoChi sono i miei ispiratori? Chi ha modellato il mio modo di vedere e di pensare alla comunicazione?Quando ho detto ad un mio allievo che non si può essere unici e originali se prima non si impara a copiare, lui ha detto: “Ah, ma allora, i miei guru, quelli a cui io guardo come i massimi esperti, chi ci li ha messi li dove sono?

Docker’s new enterprise SKUs and, once again, the open-core model. Also: IPO mania with Snap and MuleSoft. In discussion Docker EE, we start with a discussion on how socket-based pricing may seem goofy, but all pricing schemes are pretty weird, so you gotta choose one. We then try to dissect what exactly you get with the enterprise edition and conclude that we should have done more prep work. Mid-roll Coté wrote about Java at The Register (http://www.theregister.co.uk/2017/03/03/pizza_roaches_and_java/). Coté: CF Summit - June 13 to 15th, 2017 (https://www.cloudfoundry.org/event/summit-silicon-valley-2017/) - register with the code cfsv17cote for 20%! Matt: DevOps Melbourne March 28th (https://www.meetup.com/devops-melbourne/events/237351075/) Talking Compliance as Code ChefConf May 22-24 (https://chefconf.chef.io/2017/) - early-bird pricing through March 31st Coté: check out Pivotal’s DIY platform paper (http://softwaredefinedtalk.com/diyplatform). tl;dr: for $7m/year with a two year on-ramp, you could build you own, or just buy Pivotal Cloud Foundry. Many of our customers have gone down this path and ended up not wanting to support the life of their own platform...which doesn’t match the pace of innovation that the Cloud Foundry community can follow. Docker Goes Enterprise Community Edition (CE) & Enterprise Edition (EE) (https://blog.docker.com/2017/03/docker-enterprise-edition/) Version jumps from 1.13.1 to 17.03 for monthly releases, very enterprisey. Love the socket-based pricing (https://www.docker.com/pricing) Solomon weighs in vs. Kubernetes (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13774295) - what the fuck are these nerds even arguing about? TPM has some good coverage (https://www.nextplatform.com/2017/03/02/docker-reaches-enterprise-milestone/) Whichard’s Maxim of Enterpriseyness: Well, they added AD support. DONE-AND-FUCKIN-DONE! MuleSoft Prepares to IPO Link (https://techcrunch.com/2017/02/17/app-platform-company-mulesoft-files-for-ipo/) I don’t get the proposed $100 million IPO when they took $259 million in funding. Please explain it to me. OpenNMS on FLOSS Weekly Open source monitoring for years and years (https://twit.tv/shows/floss-weekly/episodes/418) HashiCorp News Making Money With Freemium (http://www.forbes.com/sites/justinwarren/2017/02/23/jay-fry-leaves-new-relic-to-head-hashicorp-marketing/2/#2248032a235c) “The question of how to make money from Open Source is a vexed one, with Red Hat frequently held up as the poster child of commercial open source success, yet it remains a lonely occupant of the category "Open Source Companies That Are Profitable” Good Narrative fallacy going here: "The open source products are really focused on the practitioner," McJannet said. "The enterprise products are focused on the needs of the organisation." August, 2016 (https://www.forbes.com/sites/justinwarren/2016/08/10/exclusive-david-mcjannet-joins-hashicorp-as-ceo/#71ad1dc7864d): “Hashimoto said HashiCorp has just finished its first 7-figure revenue quarter” Up from “triple-digit”/month in July 2015 (http://finance.yahoo.com/news/hashicorps-atlas-leaves-beta-triple-040100802.html). So, whatdwegot: $2-3m run-rate? Twitter, SnapChat & Facebook Snap IPO is leveling out (http://www.businessinsider.com/snapchat-stock-price-falls-march-6-2017-2017-3). Exstensive coverage from The Economist (http://www.economist.com/news/business/21716070-app-company-has-pioneered-distinctive-vision-internet-snaps-ipo-will-be-largest). TAM (http://www.marketwatch.com/story/even-an-old-dude-knows-that-snap-isnt-another-twitter-2017-02-27): “The ad market is $652 billion worldwide and will hit $760 billion by 2020, research firm IDC says. Mobile-ad sales will triple — to $196 billion from $66 billion.” Where’s Steve Gillmor when you need him (http://www.zdnet.com/article/getting-a-piece-of-the-action-the-attention-economy/)? See also closing plea in The Attention Merchants (book review from Coté forth coming once he finishes Chaos Monkeys): “If we desire a future that avoids the enslavement of the propaganda state as well as the narcosis of the consumer and celebrity culture, we must first acknowledge the preciousness of our attention and resolve not to part with it as cheaply or unthinkingly as we so often have.” SO ADORABLE! The SnapChat demo is good but the The Snap Company Council looks weird (http://snap.netroadshow.com/retail/roadshow.aspx). Facebook found a product but it was ugly (https://www.amazon.com/Chaos-Monkeys-Obscene-Fortune-Failure/dp/0062458191) Ben Thompson picking on Twitter (https://stratechery.com/2017/twitter-live-and-luck/) Hindsight fallacy Twitter could have been WhatsApp or Instagram or something else... BONUS LINKS! Not covered in show. AWS S3 Outage Good post-mortem here (https://aws.amazon.com/message/41926/) Tweet (https://twitter.com/mathowie/status/836659635159379969) Tweet (https://pbs.twimg.com/media/C5xo9n7UoAEfnCo.jpg) TIL Google supports S3 API (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13755673). TIL The 11 9's of are for durability, and not availability. 99.9% is S3's monthly SLA (43 minutes downtime). WTF Uber (...and The Rest of the Software Industry)? Uber is Doomed (https://www.gizmodo.com.au/2017/02/uber-is-doomed/) Reflecting On One Very, Very Strange Year At Uber (https://www.susanjfowler.com/blog/2017/2/19/reflecting-on-one-very-strange-year-at-uber) I Am An Uber Survivor (https://medium.com/@amyvertino/my-name-is-not-amy-i-am-an-uber-survivor-c6d6541e632f#.msxr8pge9) Uber SVP Leaves Over Previous Sexual Harassment Allegation (https://techcrunch.com/2017/02/27/ubers-svp-amit-singhal-leaves-company-because-he-didnt-disclose-a-sexual-harassment-allegation/) Waymo Sues Uber (https://www.wired.com/2017/02/googles-robocar-lawsuit-kill-ubers-future-send-execs-prison/) Uber Circumvents Authorities by “Greyballing” (https://www.nytimes.com/2017/03/03/technology/uber-greyball-program-evade-authorities.html) Containers, Kubernetes & AWS Matt Asay (https://www.theregister.co.uk/2017/02/28/kubernetes_aws_great_undoing/?mt=1488387031974) No More Pixel Laptops from Google Link (http://daringfireball.net/linked/2017/03/01/pixel-towel) “Google hasn’t backed away from laptops. We have the number two market share in the U.S. and U.K. — but we have no plans for Google-branded laptops.” Texas Legislature Takes Action on Emojis “although it is a nice flag” (http://www.capitol.state.tx.us/tlodocs/85R/billtext/html/HC00075I.htm) Everyone has a plan 'till they get punched in the mouth. Quote (https://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/quotes/m/miketyson382439.html) Trump is Killing Productivity Link (https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2017/03/02/cant-get-any-work-done-new-survey-reveals-politics-is-killing-productivity/) She didn’t want to be “that person,” the one who is always opining on social media. But all of that changed Nov. 8. Recommendations Matt: Finally a practical use for AI (http://blog.zikes.me/post/how-i-ruined-office-productivity-with-a-slack-bot/) Warren Ellis’ Dead Pig Collector (http://amzn.to/2lZQHze) Coté: I always forget how good Madvillian (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Madvillain) and/or MF DOOM are. I’m not smart enough to know what kind of hip-hop this it, but I like it (https://open.spotify.com/track/3T06pIOmXJ6EkJmVRN2sv6). Also: grapes. They’re delicious! Matt: Four Tet.zx (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D3EFJK0-Sxw) Brandon: Hit Makers (http://amzn.to/2lZSioE) Music heard at the end: Courtney Barnett's "Avant Gardener" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bcnIhzaDTd0).
The Gillmor Gang — Danny Sullivan, Robert Scoble, Kevin Marks, and Steve Gillmor — covered the gamut between Google+ and well, Google+. The new social platform continues to delight and confound the early adopters in record numbers. @scobleizer remains optimistic that the search giant will roll out filtering features to cut down on the noise of squids, kittens, and well, Scoble comment farms. @dannysullivan would prefer Google unleash the hounds of celebrity and brands, surprised as he and we are that the Plus team was caught flatfooted by the viral adoption of the field trial, or whatever Danny calls it. When we (Danny and I) started complaining about the lack of iPad support and Robert about the perils of high speed Scoble flow via the iPhone, @kevinmarks pointed out the ANdroid support sucked for tablets in general. All in all, much to look forward to and little or no competition from Facebook for Google to worry about.
