A new opportunity for congestion pricing
We’ve been talking about the merits of congestion pricing for as long as I’ve been writing this blog. But it remains politically unpopular, despite the overwhelming evidence that it consistently does what it’s supposed to do: it reduces congestion, shortens commute times, improves air quality, and raises money for alternative modes of transport, among other things. The status quo bias is strong, but right now we have an opportunity. Self-driving cars are in the midst of shifting the mobility ...

Stop Building Portfolios. Start Managing Repos.
How to Demonstrate New Skills in an Old MarketWhen I saw Nate Jones announce Nate’s Network today (an AI-native marketplace designed to qualify talent through "artifacts" rather than credentials), I had a massive sense of déjà vu. It pulled me back to 2011, when Joel Spolsky launched Careers 2.0 on Stack Overflow. The thesis then was the same as it is now: Resume proxies are broken; let developers showcase the things that actually get them hired. In practice, not so much.An early look at the ...

1/ USV recruited Spencer Yen about six months ago to help us with USV's "AI Transformation." I wrote this blog post when we launched the search that led us to Spencer. In about six months, Spencer with the help of my colleagues Nick and Nikhil have completely rebuilt USV's operating system using Claude Code and Tasklet (a USV portfolio company). We have doubled the size of our team at USV without hiring another human. Spencer published a blog post yesterday about all of this, why, what, and h...

Sora is dead
Hi friends, We had two very smart people on yesterday’s show, one of whom talked us through the concept below. Tap in!— # (#) Love, The Boys Writer: Deana Editor: Natasha Octant is making moves. Did you see the $1.2M ShutterDAO news?— # (#) OpenAI killed their AI video app Sora, six months after its launch. Disney's $1B investment deal, announced in December, is dead too as OpenAI presumably trims costs to shore up for its IPO in Q4. Speaking of IPOs, did you buy the crazy AI IPO stock? Happy...

Claude Just Changed How We Work
This was not a single announcement. It was a month-long quiet revolution. Anthropic shipped feature after feature and the sum of it is this: AI is no longer something you sit down to use. It is something that works while you live your life.

The development charge cliff
One of the reasons why we are seeing more multiplexes in Toronto (smaller infill buildings with less than seven homes) is that the city has waived development charges and parkland dedication fees on this scale of new housing. This has helped enormously; without these changes, we'd be seeing far fewer of these housing projects being built. But here's the odd thing about this exemption: if you build even one more home in the same building, the project is now subject to development charges on al...

Modeling The AGI Economy
There is a heated debate about what an AGI-level economy might look like. On one side are pessimists who foresee extreme wealth concentration and a permanent precariat: people with no meaningful economic role, dependent on whatever crumbs fall from the table of capital owners. On the other are optimists who argue that AI will make everything so cheap that people won't need much money to live in luxury. Both sides have a point, which is what makes the debate frustrating: they're describing dif...

The Spy and the Civil Servant
Oleg Gordievsky strode through Sheremetyevo airport in May 1985 with the confident gait of a man at the pinnacle of his career. He was about to be formally anointed as KGB chief in London. Inside him, as Ben Macintyre tells it, a low terror bubbled. He had been secretly working for MI6 for over a decade. His wife didn't know. His colleagues didn't know. His entire professional life was a performance staged for an audience that would kill him if they saw through it. Gordievsky died this past M...

Toward more fine-grained development
Yesterday we spoke about the merits of fine-grained urbanism and why the direct and obvious way to achieve this is to just, you know, encourage more small-scale development. So today, let's talk about some of the specific things that would likely need to happen in order to unlock all of the small and under-utilized sites that today are not being developed at scale. I'm going to speak from a Toronto perspective and talk specifically about small-scale "apartments," which in today's planning env...

Meet the Agents at USV: Arthur, Ellie, Sally, and Friends
There’s a great story in Stewart Brand’s How Buildings Learn about how a temporary wooden structure left over from World War II became one of the most loved buildings at MIT. During the war, MIT needed a new building to house the urgent classified development of radar technology. They hastily built a three story wood structure to fit the thousands of additional researchers: You know those time lapse photographs they make of construction of skyscrapers? Well Building 20 went up like that – alm...

Do We Need Notaries?
The concept of notaries is ancient. The fact that it has survived to this day is thanks in equal measure to our natural path-dependence and our strange inability to make the most of what modern technology has made possible.
