Poetiq's RSI loop now automatically builds its own benchmark harnesses with zero human intervention — and has hit SOTA on six diverse benchmarks including doubling the previous best on a long-horizon planning task, and a 2M-token retrieval benchmark using a model that doesn't even appear on the base leaderboard.

This isn't logical. It's the same in percentage terms.

Whether you sell 1000 copies at $100 or 100,000 copies at $1, assuming the percent of refunds is constant, then the effect is identical. Right?

This article is wrong about Eduardo Saverin. He lives in Singapore but never took citizenship. He renounced his American citizenship but kept his Brazilian.

I didn't think this was good. Her basic definitions at the beginning (eg virality) was very poor. Either she doesn't have a clear understanding of these or just isn't that good at expressing herself (hopefully the latter). Her thinking is quite convoluted. Did anyone else think this?
