Beam's cold boots are now 80% faster, thanks to GPU checkpoint restore. We save a snapshot of GPU memory after your model is loaded, so model weights don’t need to be reloaded on each cold boot. No other cloud provider can boot custom models onto GPUs this quickly.

pessimists sound smart optimists make money

Whenever I see someone mentioning “agents” - I immediately lose interest of talking to that person I haven’t yet actually seen a truly working agent besides Cursor The amount of bullshit that people put in that word is incredible

I didn’t win the Olympiad I worked at the bike shop fixing flat tires I didn’t graduate from Stanford I studied philosophy at a state school I barely got into I didn’t work at OpenAI I worked at a startup no one heard of and built apps after work We’re not “cracked”…

If teams have IMO golds, they report on those. If they don't have IMO, they report on ex-OpenAI engs If they don’t have ex-OpenAI engs, they report on "we're cracked" If they’re not cracked, they report on ‘raised from t-1s’ If they don't have $, they report on advisors.
