Wtf! Codex from @OpenAI just wiped all my files from OneDrive even though it was constrained to a named folder!

The govt's Student Loan Plan 2 repayment freeze in April 2027 must be reversed. It isn't moral. I'm concerned that my debate with Kemi Badenoch this morning distracts from the most immediate problem. In April 2027 Rachel Reeves will freeze the Plan 2 student loan threshold until 2030 which by then will increase graduate repayments by £300/yr more. This is effectively a unilateral negative breach of the student loan contract. Students were told the threshold would rise with average earnings. No commercial lender would be allowed to do this. The govt shouldn't do it either. Changing the terms of future students loans is a political decision - people may not like it but it is transparent. Negatively changing the terms of contracts already signed, and long in place, is a breach of natural justice.

A typical day in the UK You wake up in a house you paid tax to buy, then pay council tax every month to live in. You turn on the TV, which is taxed & you pay to watch it You drive a heavily taxed car, fill it with taxed petrol, pay insurance tax & congestion charges, to go to work Where you pay 50% income to tax & NI (tax) You buy something & it’s 20% VAT after you just paid 50% to earn it. You want a holiday? Airport & flight & hotel taxes Cigarettes & alcohol are taxed & then when you die, 40% inheritance tax No wonder everyone is leaving for Dubai

@StockSavvyShay It’s sad there are people in the world like this.

THE $500K LAWSUIT I NEVER SHOULD HAVE FACED Last summer I was served with a lawsuit claiming I had defrauded someone out of nearly $500,000 by convincing her to “invest” based on insider political contacts and penny stock tips. If you’ve followed me at all, you know how absurd that is. I don’t solicit money or run private WhatsApp groups and I don’t engage in insider trading. It quickly became clear this was an impersonation scam. Someone had used my name and face to gain trust, moved the conversation to an encrypted app like WhatsApp or Telegram and pressured this person into sending money. It’s the same scam playbook retail investors are warned about all the time but this time my identity was the costume. I initially thought the truth would end it quickly since I had never spoken to this person, never used the number involved and never received a dollar. I assumed basic investigation would make that obvious but what happened next was worse. Instead of treating this as a clear case of mistaken identity and using proper due diligence, opposing counsel pushed forward anyway and treated the lawsuit as leverage. I provided evidence that the number involved was not mine, that it was out of state, that there was no link to my devices, my accounts or my life. To top it off, when the number they were in communication with was called, someone named Kevin selling Walmart gift cards answered. The opposing council's response was essentially “we will proceed and see what we can find.” That is not how justice is supposed to work because lawsuits are not supposed to be fishing expeditions where you smear someone publicly first and decide later if facts exist. And then came the part that still stings. I was on my honeymoon when some fintwit trolls started circulating the lawsuit online, spinning it as “Shay is being sued for stealing money” and calling me a fraud. If you’ve ever been on the receiving end of a viral accusation then you know how powerless that feels. You can’t responsibly litigate an active case on social media and the louder the lie gets, the more silence starts to feel like guilt since it hijacked what should have been one of the happiest moments of my life. My wife and I were trying to celebrate a once-in-a-lifetime milestone while I watched my reputation get dragged in real time. I ultimately brought in serious representation because I was seeing how little truth actually mattered and was fortunate to be connected with Patrick and Jerry from Hawxhurst LLP. They immediately recognized the absurdity of the situation and they were able to shut this down and have the case dismissed in my favor within weeks. However, the “win” doesn’t erase what it cost. It cost more than my wedding and honeymoon combined. It put strain on the beginning of my marriage. It forced me to manage a crisis I didn’t create and it showed me how easily a public narrative can be weaponized when someone thinks they can pressure you into paying just to make noise go away. We like to think we live in a justice system but much of what people experience is a legal system and those are not the same thing. The truth in my case was never complicated. There was no evidence I did what I was accused of and there were obvious signs this was impersonation but once the machine is moving, truth alone doesn’t stop it since pain and reputational damage become the weapon. I truly feel so bad for my wife because she was the ultimate victim in this since this all bled into our wedding and our honeymoon where this period was supposed to be about us, about celebrating something rare and meaningful and instead there were days where my attention, my energy and my emotional bandwidth were pulled into stress, fear and damage control. Your wedding is supposed to be sacred and your honeymoon is supposed to be the exhale after years of building and pushing and sacrificing. I feel deep guilt about that because my wife did not sign up for this and she carried some of this weight with me simply because she loves me. That is the part that stays with you because you cannot rewind it and do it over. That loss is permanent and no court order can give that back to me. So even though the case is resolved and the truth is on the record, it does not sit right with me that the people who caused this get to walk away while I carry the cost in time, money, stress, and moments I will never get back. Being forced to spend your wedding and honeymoon dealing with a situation you did not create is not something you simply “move on” from. There is no real remedy for that kind of loss and that is the part that makes this feel so deeply unjust. I am looking seriously at all of my options right now (not out of revenge) but out of principle since the idea that someone can misuse the legal system, ignore basic facts, damage a person’s reputation and impose real emotional/financial harm with so little accountability does not sit right with me. I am still processing what this took from me and I am still figuring out what the right next step is but I know this much that being silent about it and simply absorbing the damage is not something I am comfortable with. I did nothing wrong and I do not believe that being the victim of something like this should come with the expectation that you quietly carry the cost while others walk away untouched.

@elonmusk @mark_k @Starlink @SpaceX Why do people just make things up?

@mark_k @Starlink @SpaceX We are not developing a phone

SpaceX is reportedly developing a proprietary @Starlink phone to expand its satellite business ahead of a massive potential IPO later this year. According to a new Reuters report, the device would connect directly to the Starlink satellite network, positioning @SpaceX as a direct competitor to traditional smartphone manufacturers. Elon Musk has described the concept as a "very different" kind of hardware, optimized specifically for high-performance AI neural networks rather than standard app use. This hardware push is part of a broader strategy to diversify Starlink’s revenue, which already generates billions in profit, by adding direct-to-device internet and space-tracking services to its portfolio.

@realDonaldTrump @trader1sz Did you not say the USA would be crypto capital of the world?

I am not a fan of Bitcoin and other Cryptocurrencies, which are not money, and whose value is highly volatile and based on thin air. Unregulated Crypto Assets can facilitate unlawful behavior, including drug trade and other illegal activity....

Drop your referral links below and I’ll send people asking for a code to the comment section to select one. Won’t be able to help everyone, but will do what I can. For those curious, here's what people ordered using my code: • Model Ys: 6 • Cybertrucks: 3 • Model 3: 1

@SamaHoole @grok can science back this up?

Cancer cells have 10x more insulin receptors than normal cells. They're glucose-dependent. They ferment glucose even in the presence of oxygen (Warburg Effect). Ketogenic diets: - Drop blood glucose by 30-40% - Lower insulin by 50-70% - Starve cancer cells of their primary fuel - Force them to attempt mitochondrial respiration (which they're bad at) Normal cells thrive on ketones. Cancer cells can't efficiently use them. Why isn't this standard oncology protocol?

@MarioNawfal British boats landed in the US hundreds of years ago . That doesn’t give the UK claim today!

🇺🇸 🇬🇱TRUMP: A 500-YEAR-OLD CLAIM BY DEMARK DOESN’T EQUAL OWNERSHIP OF GREENLAND “I don’t think they’re going to push back too much. Look, we have to have it. They have to have this done.

@ErnestoGCorona @Rainmaker1973 @grok Why are cancer research companies not advancing this research?

@Rainmaker1973 @grok could you face check this and provide a scientific summary?

Dandelion root extract kills colon cancer cells. In laboratory experiments, dandelion root extract eliminated over 90% of colon cancer cells in just 48 hours. It induced apoptosis—programmed cell death—via multiple pathways, delivering a coordinated assault that overwhelmed the malignant cells. Particularly encouraging is its efficacy against cells lacking functional p53, a tumor-suppressor gene frequently mutated in aggressive, drug-resistant cancers. This suggests potential activity against some of the most challenging forms of the disease. In subsequent animal studies, mice implanted with human colon cancer cells showed markedly reduced tumor volumes after treatment with the extract—without toxicity or harm to normal tissues. Such selectivity is exceptional. Conventional therapies like chemotherapy typically damage healthy cells alongside cancerous ones, yet in these preliminary tests, dandelion root extract targeted only the diseased cells. Such selectivity is exceptional. Conventional therapies like chemotherapy typically damage healthy cells alongside cancerous ones, yet in these preliminary tests, dandelion root extract targeted only the diseased cells. Although promising, these findings remain preclinical, limited to cell cultures and mouse models. Rigorous human clinical trials are essential to establish safety and efficacy. Nevertheless, the results highlight the vast therapeutic potential still hidden in nature—and how a humble weed may one day contribute to advanced cancer treatments.

@PressSec This is not true and should therefore not be posted by someone in your position

Stop what you are doing and read this… 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

@CoachDanGo NAC and Glycine - ask @grok about the benefits

Supplements I'm making my aging parents take: · Creatine · Omega 3s · Magnesium · Multivitamin · Vitamin D and K2 · Whey protein powder Anything else you'd add?

@StockSavvyShay @grok isn’t Solana better positioned for this statement? I’ve transacted on Ethereum - it’s slow and expensive as hell. “New laws around stablecoins and tokenization could make Ethereum the backbone for digital dollars, payments, and even stocks on-chain.”

I’m still VERY green in crypto, so my $BMNR buy today was just a tracking position. For me the thesis isn’t just a levered bet on $ETH since I think the real angle is regulation. New laws around stablecoins and tokenization could make Ethereum the backbone for digital dollars, payments, and even stocks on-chain. If that happens, Bitmine’s model makes sense: sell stock at a premium, use the cash to keep stacking ETH, and potentially compound faster than the coin itself just like how $MSTR did with $BTC. The open question is whether that alpha sticks long term or if spot Ethereum is still the cleaner bet. That’s why I’m small for now, watching how the treasury model trades. If the regulatory tailwind is real, this whole bucket could rerate hard.

@LarkDavis I predict years of bullshit

11% odds that Bitcoin hits $100,000 again before the end of the year. What's your prediction?

@LarkDavis The only thing one can predict is continued volatility.

What's your prediction for $BTC, $ETH & $SOL by the end of 2025?

@jay_azhang @grok how did you achieve this?
