My rule for interactions on BlueSky (and elsewhere) is simple: I always assume it’s my interlocutor’s birthday. This means my messages are sent with kindness and compassion.

Idea: I create a course called “For Sure 101” about European regulation. What do you think?

At the @autoriteitcm.bsky.social this morning with some of my students (@vuamsterdam.bsky.social) to meet with Martijn Snoep. We talked digital regulation, the CWS, the ACM forthcoming report, their data unit, killer acquisitions and more. What a privilege!

(1/2) Yesterday was a good day: 36:46 for 10K. A lot of fun, I feel really grateful.
But every kilometer matters most when it helps others. That is why I am raising funds so hospitalized kids can smile (more).

#Liberalism is under pressure, from both the right and the left. Can it still scale in a world of identity politics, populism, and rapid technological change?
A conversation with @casssunstein.bsky.social. 🎧

Happy to deliver a practical workshop on #computationalantitrust for the Saudi General Authority for Competition🇸🇦 today. I remain available to other agencies engaged in the Stanford Computational Antitrust project to offer workshops tailored to their legal systems.

On my way to the University of Antwerp to serve on a PhD jury and give a lecture on adaptive regulation. Always a pleasure to visit this beautiful city, especially for such a festive academic occasion.

What if antitrust’s obsession with consumer welfare is hurting US competitiveness? Jonathan Barnett shows how global power politics (especially China’s mercantilism) force a fundamental rethink of US antitrust. Essential reading. www.networklawreview.org/barnett-grea...

An advice I gave PhD candidates during our conference on Friday: build. Build projects, build theories, build with others, build! Approach your work as an entrepreneur.

Access to compute, often treated as the essential upstream scarcity, is no longer the same determinant of competitive position.

In short: V3.2’s pricing does not merely lower costs, it reshuffles the hierarchy of what matters in AI.

A differential of this scale is not a marginal adjustment. It is a redefinition of the constraints that dominate the stack. When inference becomes this cheap, the strategic bottleneck moves.
