🚨FED MINUTES: ALL 19 Fed officials BACKED a 25bp RATE HIKE in September. Most officials also said ANOTHER rate increase would likely be appropriate by YEAR-END. Almost all saw inflation risks tilted to the upside, with some warning the AI investment boom could push demand beyond supply and add further price pressure. The Fed also sees the labor market near full employment, while financial conditions remain supportive despite higher Treasury yields.

TJ Parker of @GeneralMedicine on healthcare's new bottleneck, and why getting care should be as easy as buying anything else online: "Advice is becoming really abundant, and getting to a list of answers with a GPT has become a thing that almost everyone is doing now in healthcare." "But I think that answer almost always comes back to a set of tasks for you to go do. It might be, you should go call and book an appointment with a doctor, call and book an appointment with a specialist, go get these sets of labs, or go get this imaging done." "While advice is abundant, you then are immediately stuck back with the realities of the current healthcare system." "We've for a very long time felt like the best modality for that is a store. Everything else in your life, you search and browse the options available to you, you understand what they cost, you understand when they're available, and you go buy the thing." "The time is right for something like this in healthcare because the bottleneck is no longer advice, the bottleneck is taking action on that advice." @tjparker Full conversation:

Victoria Secrets: Please Explain What’s hiding in Victoria's secret cabinet papers? You’ll have to wait 30 years to find out. When One Nation announces plans to release cabinet documents, panic sets in at Labor HQ. With decades of corruption potentially about to see the light of day, Ben Carroll, Jacinta Allan, and Dan Andrews embark on a desperate mission to shred the documents before it’s too late. But first they'll have to survive Melbourne's potholes, public transport, and the violent streets of the world's most liveable city. Meanwhile, Jess Wilson has a plan, apparently.

Hermes Agent is adding persistent identities for images across a session. 🪽 Every image you attach gets a session-wide identity: Image #1# Image #2# Image #3# But here's the important part: Hermes sees those SAME labels. Upload a pile of screenshots and later tell it: “Find the problem in Image #4#.” “Compare #2# and #6#.” “Go back to Image #1#.” No more guessing which damn image the agent thinks you're talking about. Small feature. BIG quality-of-life improvement. 🔥
