Welcome to the Bear Lair!* (No, it’s nothing like that other show.) As we continue to explore the world of AI tools and vibe coding, we invited a few enterprising Vergecast fans to share their projects — and we invited The Verge’s Hayden Field to judge them with us. We’ll see what people are working on, and whether any of them will make us fabulously wealthy.*We came up with this name before we became aware that someone else thought of it first... no relation to the APTNtv show Bears'

Send us Fan Mail Welcome to Discover Fresh Perspectives. In this episode, host David Gouthro sits down with Mike McGraw, a candidate for mayor in the City of North Vancouver. David recently read a statistic which indicated that on Vancouver's North Shore, over the last number of elections, incumbents won something like 93% of the time.

Pranksy’s claim that Bored Apes helped ruin NFTs sparks a long debate over what actually went wrong during the last NFT cycle, from copycat projects and over-financialization to the communities that kept people engaged. The conversation also digs into builder persistence, product-market fit and when sticking with a project starts creating diminishing returns. Earlier in the show, ApeCoin’s recent move and ApePay lead into a broader discussion about whether spending volatile tokens makes sense...

Most MSPs say they don't want to compete on price.Then they spend the entire sales conversation talking about technology, comparing stacks, and trying to prove why they're worth more. Juan Fernandez took a very different approach. He built an MSP from zero to $20 million in six years by focusing less on what he was selling and more on whether he could actually solve the client's problem. In Episode 62 of The MSP Sales Podcast, Brian Gillette sits down with Juan, Chief Encouragement Officer at MSP

Intelligence too cheap to meter -- could that actually be coming? 🤑 Maybe, and you mighta missed one of the biggest signs. OpenAI said that its own model improved itself after release so well, that it was cutting prices to one model by 80%. What's that mean? Well, by definition, it's a broad example of Recursive Self Improvement, or when a model starts building better versions of itself. And over the past 8 weeks, RSI has gone from a science fiction future t...

NEAR just got a new institutional gateway, but the ETF may only be the beginning of the story. Bitwise CEO Hunter Horsley and Sovereign’s Sal Ternullo join David to unpack why investors are starting to view NEAR through the lens of AI, how NEAR Intents has already processed more than $32 billion in volume, what staking and token buybacks mean for the asset, and why a future filled with many AI models, chains, agents, and stablecoins could play directly into NEAR’s strengths.--- 📣SPOTIFY PREMIUM

Andrea Malagodi is CTO at Sonar, which builds AI code verification and governance tools. When finance asked about the size of his team's AI bills, he calculated cost per PR. At one extreme was an engineer with more than 500 PRs in a short period and a low cost per PR. At the other was an engineer with very high spend and very few PRs.Judged on cost alone, the first engineer wins and the second looks like a problem. Malagodi looked closer. The first had built a personal agent factory, with
