Day 965 of parenting kids and agents.
This time, no kids, just agents, and a bunch of very smart people attending and speaking at Lisbon AI.
I really need to do this more often.
"First wealth, then kids."
39% of people say they don't have kids due to financial limitations.
And I get it. I was in the same situation.
My girlfriend wanted kids, and I wanted to postpone it.
I always thought I didn't have enough financial freedom to provide for my family.
But then my partner got pregnant in the least comfortable situation: I was unemployed.
I stopped looking for a job and decided to freelance. I couldn't wait any longer.
More than 2 years have passed, and I'm not in a worse situation.
My daughter has been fortunate enough to travel a lot in her lifetime. We go out for dinner almost every week. She takes part in paid activities, and I've never really had to say, "We need to stop paying for this."
First, kids don't consume as much wealth as one might think. You just transfer your spending to other things.
Secondly, kids force us to be more productive. We're no longer building wealth just for ourselves. We're building wealth to provide the best possible life for someone we love unconditionally.
Do you need a stronger motif than that?
But building wealth shouldn't compromise attachment either.
That's why I've decided to spend half of my days with her since she was born.
39% is a big percentage, and there may be a slice of that percentage that genuinely can't afford to have kids due to financial struggles.
But don't wait to be rich to have kids. Probably, kids will make you rich instead.
Grok 4.7 is a total disappointment.
We ran it through BridgeBench's lava lamp test against Grok 4.6. Same prompt.
Grok 4.6: $0.23, 9m 54s
Grok 4.7: $0.35, 15m 46s
50% more expensive. 60% slower. And the output is still not usable for real frontend work.
Grok had two
Day 962 of parenting kids and agents.
Today I finished the garden house with my daughter.
She was super happy, and wanted to play with it all day.
I had to tell her that daddy needs to parent some agents now, we'll continue the adventure tomorrow.
She understands, as long as I keep my promise.
This looks... interesting 👀
Just discovered Hemmingway-1, a model based on Qwen3.8-27B that promises to sound and write like a person than any other model around.
I am going to test it out!
