The HELP foundation

@CultureCrave Still the best movie by a long shot.

Michael Mann's 'Heat' released 30 years ago today

@SebJohnsonUK @elevenlabs @bfl_ml This place has become a propaganda engine. It's getting worse every day.

Europe is LOSING the AI race and is absolutely COOKED. Ok. Why are so many of the leading models being built in Europe then? > ElevenLabs (@elevenlabs) is the leading text to speech model, which is 2x as good as OpenAI, its closest competitor. > Black Forest Labs (@bfl_ml) one of the leaders in text to image generation used by Meta, Adobe and Microsoft > Synthesia (@synthesiaIO) the leader in AI avatars which has developed its own incredibly powerful models Today another model in Europe has raised a huge round. This time its @MireloAI which has developed a leading text to sound model that creates accompanying sound for videos. It's just announced raising a $41m seed from @IndexVentures (@GeorgiaS_IV ) and @a16z (@appenz). The founders (CJ Simon-Gabriel and Florian Wenzel) behind the company are two absolutely CRACKED builders: >Both have PHDs in Machine Learning > Met each other while working as AI researchers at AWS Labs > Both also accomplished musicians These two combine contextual expertise, academic excellence and AI research to create an amazing founder combination. Europe needs more companies like this. Sure - Europe is behind on LLMs. But it's also the most capital intensive and competitive area to build models in. VERY bullish on European Models

@RjeyTech Complete garbage. FaceTime calls are killing the battery at lightspeed.

iOS 26.2 has completely obliterated the battery life!

@KhanAbbas201 You really think he is not fully aware of this ?

Even CZ fell victim to the active addresses curse. Creating a wallet or doing a single transaction does not make someone an active user 🤦‍♂️

@chainyoda It's mostly because people are selfish and self-centered. It's all excuses. Life without kids is no life.

This “cost of having children” discussion for middle class people is unreal. My folks had nothing when I was born and I had very little when my kids were born. When we’re serious about bringing up our children, we find a way to spend less on whatever other shit we spend on

@alexanderhupfer Nobody wants to admit there's a huge luck factor. They won't admit it because that would make them less unique and undermine the storytelling they need to raise more funds from limited partners.

In 2008, VCs passed on Shopify. Their logic: "There are only 40,000 online stores globally. Even if you get 50%, that's not enough." What they missed: Shopify was the solution to the very problem they stated. There were only 40,000 stores because no one made it easy to start one.

@gumsays Fighting the dopamine urge

You could kill it for a week, month, year There will be a day where you feel like you don't know shit anymore Don't fight that feeling, do nothing You will thank yourself later

@MikeIppolito_ Once the mind is bored, it will seek any dopamine hit, and this is the difference between a gambler and a trader. Traders have systems to avoid changing their minds based on emotions. Your counterparty knows about your feelings.

The SEC chair is publicly bullposting Ethereum and you're bearish

@Mr_Derivatives Bear porn works. Funny to see this guy selling trading courses.

Michael Burry now has over 156k+ subscribers on his Substack that he started not even a month ago. He has a monthly sub ($39/month) and a free tier version. Let's assume he has just a 10% conversion rate, which I think is fair for someone of his notoriety. That's $608,400/month before the ~15% fees through SS. So $517,140ish net a month or $6,205,680 a year. And that # likely will continue to grow. Basically the equivalent of running a $310M AUM hedge fund and charging a 2% management fee. But without any of the stress. Are my #'s off?

@United24media It’s always been about VLM.

⚡️ A U.S. startup says cheap autonomous turrets could flip the drone war. Sentradel says its machine-vision turrets can detect and destroy FPV drones for a fraction of the cost of missiles, warning the West is losing an asymmetric fight.

@Noahpinion Proof that founder led marketing can backfire greatly.

Maybe we'll look back and say that DOGE destroyed two U.S. institutions -- USAID and Tesla.

@cursor_ai That’s quite a leap 🔥

You can now design directly in your codebase. Select elements, modify them visually, and Cursor writes the code.

@binji_x Perhaps auditing the metrics to determine whether they are real or not is a business opportunity.

you raise money then want to raise more so you hire a bunch of busy workers who burn through your $ and spruce up useless metrics so you can show growth to raise more money before a liquidity event after which you let your project bleed to death. many such cases, what a waste.

©️ is how you kill competition. gg

@cometwtf Down bad

Explain your crypto portfolio in only 2 words

@gumsays Mental illness. The worst part is that it might really influence some people to make bad decisions.

Pretty sure it's over now that BTC retraced a pump Pretty sure ATHs are coming now that BTC recovered from the retrace Pretty sure it's over now that BTC retraced a pump Pretty sure ATHs are coming now that BTC recovered from the retrace Can you guys stop?

@panamaXBT He surely meant "whining" 😂

can we get to the part of "getting tired of winning" ffs?

@mert This shit is hilarious 🔥💀

cRypTo hAs a mArkEtiNg pRobLem, ok then explain: gambling -> prediction markets gambling addict -> trench warrior wire fraud via tokens -> dev shitcoin trader -> liquid fund manager a dollar -> stablecoin a keypair -> neo-bank criminal -> KOL blog -> research paper

“We now live in a permanently fragmented world where the model you use depends entirely on what you're doing with it” 💯
