The next wave of AI will not be won by better prompts. It will be won by systems that learn from experience.

Today, Prime Intellect Lab is out of beta, open for you to start training your own models.

The era of self-improving agents is here.

Previously, improving a model meant waiting on the frontier labs.

Lab brings the model improvement engine right to you:

Build. Evaluate. Train. Deploy.

Lab is launching with self-serve support for models from Nvidia, OpenAI, Meta, Qwen, with more coming soon.

Models range from 1B to 400B parameters covering both dense and MoE architectures, reasoning and non-reasoning modes, and text and image modalities.

The fastest way to hack your stress, energy, sleep, focus, and recovery is through your breath

Here are 7 evidence-backed benefits of diaphragmatic breathing & how to do it correctly

1) WHAT IS DIAPHRAGMATIC BREATHING?

It’s a breathing pattern where the diaphragm the main breathing muscle below the lungs does most of the work.

Instead of shallow chest breathing:
• The abdomen expands
• Lower ribs widen
• Breathing becomes slower and deeper

This improves breathing efficiency and nervous system regulation.

2) IT HELPS SHIFT THE BODY OUT OF “FIGHT-OR-FLIGHT”

Slow diaphragmatic breathing stimulates the vagus nerve and parasympathetic nervous system.

Research shows this may help:
• Lower stress response
• Reduce sympathetic overactivation
• Improve emotional regulation
• Improve calmness and recovery

Your breath directly affects your nervous system.

Gorsuch, J. talks of a credal nation. Pennsylvania was established by Quakers. The Society of Friends trace the history of their Crusade against Spiritual Blindness to July 6, 1415 and the last moments John Hus ‘suffered in the flames at Constance in Germany.’

Even older is the Illuminatio interna (or the Light Within), the flare of Eternal Wisdom into the World of Time (John 1:9). The Discipline of the Quakers is acquired, and it’s here they differ most from others: it’s less a difference in Theory than in Practice.

A letter to Thomas Whitehead, February 10, 1748, John Wesley found a several points in which Quakerism differs from Christianity, the ‘manifest difference’ being in the equal voice of women to teach Quaker Doctrine.

"Vericool World LLC, a cooler manufacturer, claims Igloo Products Corporation said something uncool—wrongfully taking credit as the first to market a
biodegradable cooler." So begins Judge Nelson in a copyright dispute. Nelson notes the best claim was waived. Uncool!

Judge Bumatay dissents, with a reference to the classic ship of Theseus. He would find that Vericool can take the Igloo to court. Alas, he missed an opportunity to cite the Eighth Circuit classic for the Theseus proposition, White v. NFL.

Here's what happened day 3 of the 57th 9/11 pretrial hearings at Guantanamo Bay.

Prosecutor Trivett continued his arguments against suppressing statements made by Khalid Shaikh Mohammad to the FBI in 2007 following his 3.5 year CIA incommunicado detention and torture.

Commissions called to order shortly after 0900. Defendants bin Atash and al Hawsawi waived right to attend today. Ammar al Baluchi was in an adjacent facility where he could view the proceedings via CCTV. Mohammad was in court.

This is stunning reporting: Donald Trump’s so-called “Project Freedom” reportedly collapsed after Saudi Arabia blocked the U.S. military from using key Saudi bases and airspace for the operation, according to new reporting from NBC News. Link to the article in the reply.

Read the article here: nbcnews.com/politics/white…

Per the report, Saudi leadership was furious after Trump abruptly announced the operation without proper coordination. In response, the Kingdom reportedly barred the U.S. from flying aircraft out of Prince Sultan Air Base or through Saudi airspace to support the mission — effectively grounding the operation and forcing Trump to pause it.

This is stunning. The President of the United States reportedly launched a major military operation in one of the most sensitive regions on earth… without securing support from key allies first.

NBC reports that even a direct call between Trump and Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman failed to resolve the standoff.

Why does Utah need a 63 square mile data center that will require more than twice Utah's current total electrical consumption? Why does the country, for that matter?

2/ For context, it will be 200 times the size of the NSA's massive data center that already occupies Utah:

3/ For more context, it will be nearly 3 times the size of Manhattan

This incredible paper uncovers massive collusion between Indian textile firms to hold down wages. This collusion is enabled by "pro-worker" laws making it hard to hire and fire. Instead, a higher minimum wage would actually increase output and wages. 1/

Identifying collusion is one of the perennial problems of industrial organization, and we have not come to a satisfactory general test. The problem is that you cannot easily identify the way in which firms compete without knowing their costs.

Borrowing from Bresnahan 1982, for every set of prices and quantities explainable by collusion against some known demand curve with a set of marginal costs, I can give you another set of marginal costs which explains the prices under competition.

Most direct mail in storage acquisitions fail because operators send one letter and quit.

Here's the 4-letter cadence that actually works - and the real numbers from my pipeline. 🧵

The 4-Letter Year:

Q1: Friendly intro. "I'd love to buy your facility someday."
Q2: Check-in. "Still interested if you're ready."
Q3: Value angle. "I close in 30 days. No inspection contingency. No broker."
Q4: The breakup. "Final letter. Still want to buy."

The breakup letter is the one that converts.
Real numbers:

3-4% response rate
Most calls come on letter 3 or 4

Typical year: 1 facility bought + 1 wholesale assignment
