Practical podcast interview with Matt Pocock (AI engineering educator and creator of popular agent skills). The core message is that the model is important, but the harness (your skills/prompts/procedures + environment + workflow) matters just as much or more.

Post-spacetime physics refers to the idea that our familiar 4D spacetime is not fundamental but emerges from deeper structures-whether geometric (fiber bundles, higher-dimensional manifolds), quantum (entanglement, information), or vacuum effects. Eric Weinstein's Geometric Unity (GU) proposes a 14-dimensional geometric framework (involving a metric bundle over 4D spacetime) from which the Standard Model forces, gravity, and ... Read more

Starfall is explicitly designed for mass production (like Starlink satellites), so unit costs drop sharply with volume. It is tiny compared to a Starship upper stage (~2.1 t dry mass vs. ~85-100 t), with far simpler systems (no main propulsion, parachute landing, jettisonable shield). Here is a realistic BOM (Bill of Materials) breakdown and cost ... Read more
