Good night, sweet prince. | Photo: Vjeran Pavic / The Verge It's not the Mini, it's me. Nearly five years after it launched, the 13 Mini is still the best phone ever made. That hasn't changed; it's just that I changed. And as painful as it is to admit this, after using it again for a couple of weeks, I think it's time to put my iPhone 13 Mini to rest. The Mini is an underdog. An outlier. It's a weird little phone that Apple tried to sell twice, couldn't, and promptly gave up on . If you pick it up after using any modern phone it's laughably small. A tiny baby phone in a world of Maxes and Ultras. But small phones are so nice. I can use the Mini one-handed without fumbling around trying to reach my … Read the full story at The Verge.

Kevork Djansezian/Getty Images News A number of recent articles have questioned the skills of Berkshire Hathaway ( BRK.A ) ( BRK.B ) CEO Greg Abel as an investor, most notably the recent Barron's article by Andrew Bary with the title "Berkshire's New CEO Has No Investment Experience. He's Running The $300 Billion Stock Portfolio Anyway." That title is what I call really laying it out. And if you lay things out in that manner, it's a good idea to think the argument through a couple more times. The title is questionable, while the full article is somewhat more measured, though not measured enough for me. I have myself written in the past that no one is likely to equal Buffett's long-term success as an investor, but I must add immediately that the reasons are somewhat different than those laid down in the Barron's article. The reality is that Buffett himself has said as much, basically arguing that he would find it virtually impossible to equal his long-term performance, adding that in his prime he would do well to equal the S&P 500 or beat it by a point or two because Berkshire Hathaway is now so large that it takes an enormous purchase to move the needle. Nevertheless, critics persist in the view that Abel lacks investment experience. In a generally favorable article by Morningstar dated May 1 and entitled "Berkshire Hathaway Enters New Era with Greg Abel at the Helm," Morningstar had the following to say: We believe Abel will be held to a vastly different standard than Buffett ever was—primarily because he will be serving as both an operator (something Buffett was never really all that interested in) and an investor (something Abel has had little experience with) in his new role." Again, image of Abel as a novice investor persists, the key words wrapped in parentheses characterizing him as being called upon to be an investor ( something Abel has had little experience with ). One might jump to the conclusion that this is because Abel is unskilled at selecting investm...

Willie B. Thomas/DigitalVision via Getty Images Post-earnings thesis In my February 2026 article , I rated OSCR a Strong Buy at $13.42, arguing that 2025's elevated medical loss ratio was a backward-looking story, and that 2026 would be the year the market reprices Oscar once financial metrics turn well. This is exactly what happened from the earnings just released today. Oscar's Q1 2026 results showing total revenue of $4.65 billion, a 70.5% medical loss ratio, $679 million in net income, and full-year 2026 guidance reaffirmed without a single downward revision. To me, this is the best Q1 announcement one could hope for - Oscar Health has passed the my threshold of defining a "good quarter" I laid out in February with perfect execution. I am maintaining my Strong Buy rating and updating my price target to $30 by 2026. However, this strong performance is not set in stone, bearing in mind that Q1 has always been a positive quarter because of the industry's seasonality. Every red line held green In my February analysis, I identified three specific conditions that would prove my Strong Buy thesis wrong and affect confidence. Quarterly revenue growth below 45% SG&A expense ratio above 16.5%, and Any reduction in full-year guidance On revenue, Q1 2026 delivered $4.65 billion — a 52.7% year-over-year increase versus Q1 2025's $3.04 billion , even with a 28% increase in insurance premium as management indicated. This places Oscar precisely on the quarterly run-rate consistent with its $18.7–$19.0 billion full-year guidance . The 28% weighted average premium increase flowing directly into the top line, with 3.17 million members providing the volume base to absorb it. OSCR While churn may happen in Q2 onwards commonly for insurance companies, the quarterly average member premium of around $1450, which translate into $5800 annually, will still bring OSCR at $17 billion even with a 10% loss of members in Q2 onwards, which is still close to the lower end of the guidance. Q1 rev...

Artificial intelligence research is plunging further into video games. Alphabet Inc. ’s AI lab, Google DeepMind, announced plans Wednesday to train its technology on Eve Online, a beloved role-playing game set in outer space. As part of the arrangement, DeepMind will take a minority stake in Fenris Creations, an independent Icelandic company formed Wednesday after CCP Games, the creator of Eve Online , repurchased itself from Korean game-maker Pearl Abyss Corp. for $120 million in cash and cryptocurrency. The price was less than half of what Pearl Abyss paid for CCP Games in 2018. Eve Online “requires skills that AI has not yet fully mastered,” said Adrian Bolton, a senior director at DeepMind, such as “long-term planning and continual learning.” Players of the online science-fiction game operate spaceships and join “corporations” where they trade goods, participate in an economy and infiltrate enemies — sometimes as part of protracted heists . The game, which first launched 23 years ago, has been praised for giving players unprecedented power to deceive, scam and practice politics. Along the way, it has cultivated a highly intellectual fan base. All of which made it an attractive source of complex social simulations for researchers at Google’s AI lab, who previously trained their technology on multiple games, ranging from Atari’s arcade classics to Blizzard Entertainment’s StarCraft II . Google DeepMind’s investment is “in the millions” of dollars, according to Fenris Creations Chief Executive Officer Hilmar Veigar Pétursson. Other investors include several Icelandic firms and individuals, he said. In a press release, the company said that in the fourth quarter of 2025 Eve Online generated the second-highest quarterly sales in the game’s history, including a “record-breaking” month in November. “We jokingly say that the final boss for AI in games would obviously be Eve Online ,” Pétursson said. “ Eve is giving insights about our own society and the human condition....

Markets have been very volatile through the first four months of 2026, with a first-quarter correction in the Nasdaq Composite (NASDAQINDEX: ^IXIC) followed by a 15% surge in April. But it didn't seem to hinder S&P Global (NYSE: SPGI) , which delivered a strong first-quarter earnings report. S&P Global saw revenue rise 10% year over year in Q1 to $4.2 billion. Net income jumped 28% to $1.4 billion, while earnings per share increased 32% to $4.69. Both revenue and earnings beat earnings estimates. In fact, volatility seems to be providing a lift for some of S&P Global's businesses, including its largest. Continue reading

Poland’s central bank kept interest rates unchanged for a second month on Wednesday as the energy-price impact of the Iran war revives long-benign domestic inflation. The rate-setting Monetary Policy Council kept the benchmark at 3.75%, matching the expectations of all 28 economists surveyed by Bloomberg. The zloty stayed stronger against the euro after the announcement. The 10-member panel cut rates in March, just days after the Iran war started, and has since switched to a wait-and-see stance. An unexpected acceleration in price growth last month is fueling speculation that policymakers will ramp up their anti-inflation rhetoric, effectively opening the path for Poland to raise interest rates later in the year. Governor Adam Glapinski will hold his monthly news conference at 3 p.m. on Thursday. Investors will also check the central bank’s statement, due at 4 p.m. in Warsaw, for a tougher tone. Amid a jump in global energy prices, Poland’s headline inflation jumped to 3.2% in April, near the 3.5% upper limit of the central bank’s target range. Before the spike, price growth data repeatedly undershot expectations, paving the way for 200 basis points in rate cuts since May last year. Economists at Morgan Stanley forecast two hikes during 2026, while derivatives also signal growing bets on a looming policy tightening.

AI系统，可能很快就能自行构建自身了！ 说这句话的人，是Anthropic联合创始人Jack Clark。 5月4日，他在X上发帖：「我认为，递归自我改进（RSI）有60%的概率在2028年底之前发生。」 除了Anthropic联合创始人身份之外，Clark还是《Import AI》的创办者兼主笔，长期跟踪AI能力进展。 这次发帖，他在《Import AI》上同时发布了一篇完整的分析文章。 https://importai.substack.com/p/import-ai-455-automating-ai-research 这是一件大事。我不知道该如何理解它。这是一个我不情愿接受的看法：其影响太过巨大，让我感到自身渺小，而且我不确定，社会是否已准备好迎接自动化AI研发所带来的变革。 Clark在文章里写： 如果这一天到来，人类将跨过一道「卢比孔河」，进入一个几乎无法预测的未来 。 他不认为这会发生在2026年，但他预判一两年内可能在非前沿模型上，出现这样的概念验证：一个模型，端到端训练出自己的继任者。 支撑Clark结论的，主要来自公开信息：arXiv、bioRxiv、NBER上的论文，加上他对各大前沿实验室产品的持续观察，Clark以此拼凑出一幅关于AI进展的全景图。 在他看来，AI工程化生产的所有组件，今天已经基本齐了。剩下的问题是：模型什么时候能积累足够的创造力，开始像人类研究员一样推动前沿演进。 四年，从30秒到12小时 Clark的核心论据，是一批能力进展曲线。 先看METR的时间轴图。 https://metr.org/time-horizons/ METR是一个专注AI能力评估的机构，他们追踪的是：AI系统能独立完成一项任务，在50%成功率水平线上，这项任务如果让一个熟练的人来做大概需要多少时间。 2022年，GPT-3.5的数字是：30秒； 2023年，GPT-4把这个数字推到了4分钟； 2024年，o1推到了40分钟； 2025年，GPT-5.2（高配版）跨到了6小时； 2026年，Claude Opus 4.6已经到了12小时。 四年，从30秒到12小时，翻了1440倍！ AI能力研究员Ajeya Cotra认为，2026年底之前，这个数字有望突破100小时。 如果达到100小时时间跨度，它将能覆盖许多多日级软件/研究辅助任务。 编程能力同样也...

NANO Nuclear Energy ( NNE ) on Wednesday said it has signed a memorandum of understanding with Super Micro Computer ( SMCI ) to explore powering data centers with small-scale nuclear reactors. The partnership will assess integrating NANO’s microreactors with Supermicro’s AI servers and infrastructure to deliver on-site, round-the-clock power for data centers, as electricity demand surges with the growth of AI. The companies will also look at joint deployments and go-to-market strategies targeting hyperscale and enterprise customers, aiming to develop systems that combine computing and power in a single solution. The agreement is non-binding but sets the stage for potential future deals as both firms seek to address energy constraints facing the fast-growing AI sector.

Is good news about the economy bad news for the stock market once again? That question is top of mind on Wall Street these days, as investors look ahead to key data on the labor market and inflation while Kevin Warsh awaits Senate confirmation as the next chair of the Federal Reserve with a presumed strong desire to lower interest rates. However, a hot economy paired with still-elevated oil prices has almost completely dashed hopes for a rate cut this year — removing a bullish tailwind for the stock market. In fact, bond traders are boosting wagers that the central bank’s next policy move could be a rate hike rather than a cut. Expectations may shift further on Friday when the US employment report for April is released and on May 12, when data is expected to show an acceleration in consumer inflation. “The bar is getting higher for rate cuts given the interesting mix we have of a worsening inflation outlook but increasingly stable labor outlook,” said Kevin Gordon , head of macro research and strategy at the Schwab Center for Financial Research. “If the labor market does start to retighten and inflation takes longer to cool — driven mostly by a protracted war in Iran — I think markets would be at risk of correcting given the attendant tightening in financial conditions.” Inflation surged in March by the most in nearly four years , a consequence of the Middle East conflict. A record increase in gas prices was responsible for almost three-quarters of the monthly advance, the Bureau of Labor Statistics said last month. Economists expect the increase in the consumer price index accelerated further in April, from 3.3% to 3.8% year-over-year, according to the median estimate in a Bloomberg survey. And while energy markets on Wednesday took some solace from US efforts to end the Iran war, Brent crude remains above $100 a barrel and West Texas Intermediate oil is trading near $95. Wells Fargo Investment Institute’s Sameer Samana expects higher energy prices and inflation wi...
