Mark Gurman reported about AI spending inside Apple:

Last month, Apple quietly lowered the daily spending cap for some engineers using AI models to $200 from $300, according to people with knowledge of the change. The company is now planning further cuts for some engineering teams, potentially reducing their daily allowances to as little as $100…

Even “as little as $100” per person per day is outrageous. The problem is that OpenAI and Anthropic essentially force large companies onto enterprise plans. We know from Anthropic’s S-1 that a bunch of revenue comes from a handful of companies.

That ended up being a great game to be at. Wemby was a force. 52 points. Spurs blow a big lead but hold on in the final minutes. 🏀

Spurs vs. Mavs with ABA-inspired court. 🏀

To go along with the new site for Epilogue, I’ve also rolled out a redesign of the Inkwell home page for new users. Same style, more screenshots. Just much better at conveying what the app is about.

The win last night was so stunning that I’m actually reconsidering some thoughts I had leading up to election night. I’ll get some ideas down in an essay eventually, but in the meantime I can’t stop smiling at this photo from Whataburger. Perfect.

Glad this split between Waymo and Uber is happening:

Mawakana told Bloomberg that Waymo initially partnered with Uber because the ride-hail giant offered scale. But the experience for riders has been “a little bit of a crapshoot,” she said, especially because riders never know for sure if they’re going to hail a robotaxi or a human-driven car.

That’s it exactly. Uber could’ve fixed it with a new UI.

Good rundown by Ben Thompson about how the election results will affect data centers:

Many of the theories about AI assume that it becomes a commodity; I think it’s just as likely we are looking at scarcity for much longer than we expected, which will have ripple effects on everything.

The form factor for this AI walkie-talkie is a little silly, but I think they’ve got the basics right, especially that it includes cellular. There are so many of these devices popping up.

James Talarico wins, and now just listening to Greg Abbot say he called Gina Hinojosa to concede. This is absolutely stunning.

I was only 15 years old when Ann Richards won. Always vote for Democrats so this is the first time my candidate has won statewide. A new day for Texas. 🇺🇸

Trying to remember the last time I’ve been able to click around on a Texas election map, county by county, and smile. Oh right, it’s never happened. This is looking very good. 🇺🇸
