I fully agree with @nopara73 (Adam Ficsor), the creator of @wasabiwallet, who took a temporary vacation from Twitter: twitter.com/nopara73/statu…

Andrej Karpathy told his OpenClaw: “I think I have Sonos at home.” It scanned the network, found devices, reverse engineered APIs, and started playing music. Soon “Dobby” was running the house. Lights. HVAC. Security cameras. Agents are getting good at figuring systems out.

Almost every SaaS app inside Vercel has now been replaced with a generated app or agent interface, deployed on Vercel. Support, sales, marketing, PM, HR, dataviz, even design and video workflows. It’s shocking. The SaaSpocalypse is both understated and overstated. Over because the key systems of record and storage are still there (Salesforce, Snowflake, etc.) Understated because the software we are generating is more beautiful, personalized, and crucially, fits our business problems better. We struggled for years to represent the health of a Vercel customer properly inside Salesforce. Too much data (trillions of consumption data points), the ontology of Vercel was a mismatch to the built-in assumptions, and the resulting UI was bizarre. We generated what we needed instead. When you don’t need a UI, you just ask an agent with natural language. We’ve also been moving off legacy systems with poor, slow, outdated, and inconsistent APIs, as well as just dropping abstraction down to more traditional databases. UI is a function 𝑓 of data (always has been), and that 𝑓 is increasingly becoming the LLM.

BREAKING: Manufacturing and construction employment now represents just ~15% of all US jobs, the lowest contribution in at least 175 years. This percentage has declined -25 points since 1950. Over the same period, agriculture has fallen -18 points, to just 2%, the lowest in history. Meanwhile, private education and health jobs reflect ~20% of the total, professional and business services make up ~16%, and leisure and hospitality ~12%, all of which had ~5% each in 1950. Trade, transportation, and utilities remain the most stable sector, holding steady at ~20% over the same period. Financial activities and information make up ~10% of jobs, compared to ~5% in 1950. The US economy has shifted from production to services.

🚨A U.S. official told me the Command element of the 82nd airborne division has been directed by the Pentagon to deploy to the Middle East together with an infantry brigade consisting of several thousand troops 🚨This is another significant troops reinforcement in the region ahead of a possible ground operation in Iran

The Iranians are trolling Trump after he TACO’d on striking their power plants and then claimed there were “productive” talks with Iran.

Bitcoin has likely reached a floor and could rise to $150,000 by the end of 2026, according to Bernstein, which argues the cryptocurrency is being reshaped by a steady shift toward institutional ownership and financing bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

Growing calls for an investigation after huge, suspicious trades were placed just minutes before Trump announced he was halting attacks on Iran’s power plants and holding “productive” talks with Iran. $1.5B poured into bets on stocks going up, while big bets were placed on oil falling. Sen. Andy Kim: “We need immediate investigations into these trades. If they used insider information, they need to be held accountable.”

Software horror: litellm PyPI supply chain attack. Simple `pip install litellm` was enough to exfiltrate SSH keys, AWS/GCP/Azure creds, Kubernetes configs, git credentials, env vars (all your API keys), shell history, crypto wallets, SSL private keys, CI/CD secrets, database passwords. LiteLLM itself has 97 million downloads per month which is already terrible, but much worse, the contagion spreads to any project that depends on litellm. For example, if you did `pip install dspy` (which depended on litellm>=1.64.0), you'd also be pwnd. Same for any other large project that depended on litellm. Afaict the poisoned version was up for only less than ~1 hour. The attack had a bug which led to its discovery - Callum McMahon was using an MCP plugin inside Cursor that pulled in litellm as a transitive dependency. When litellm 1.82.8 installed, their machine ran out of RAM and crashed. So if the attacker didn't vibe code this attack it could have been undetected for many days or weeks. Supply chain attacks like this are basically the scariest thing imaginable in modern software. Every time you install any depedency you could be pulling in a poisoned package anywhere deep inside its entire depedency tree. This is especially risky with large projects that might have lots and lots of dependencies. The credentials that do get stolen in each attack can then be used to take over more accounts and compromise more packages. Classical software engineering would have you believe that dependencies are good (we're building pyramids from bricks), but imo this has to be re-evaluated, and it's why I've been so growingly averse to them, preferring to use LLMs to "yoink" functionality when it's simple enough and possible.

Until March, Saturn had 146 known moons, then astronomers discovered 128 new ones, bringing the ringed gas giant's total up to 274 moons—far beyond any other planet in our Solar System. This is the coreography of their dance. [🎞️ thebrainmaze]

BREAKING: Volkswagen is in talks with Israel’s Iron Dome maker over a deal that would switch production at one of their factories from cars to missile defense, per FT. The German government is actively supporting the proposal.

🚨 NEWS FROM NASA In a bold and decisive move, NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman just announced a $20 billion plan to build America’s permanent base on the Moon — and they’re doing it in just 7 years. Today, NASA officially confirmed it is cancelling plans for the Lunar Gateway — the small space station that was supposed to orbit the Moon as a waypoint for astronauts. Instead, those components and resources will be repurposed directly for the surface base, accelerating humanity’s return to sustained lunar presence. The goal is clear — move beyond short visits and flags-and-footprints missions. NASA wants a real, long-term foothold on the Moon: habitats, power systems, rovers, scientific labs, and infrastructure that can support crews for months at a time. This base will serve as the foundation for deeper space exploration, resource utilization (like mining lunar ice for fuel and water), and eventually — Mars. The $20 billion investment over the next seven years will reshape major parts of the Artemis program. It comes with real urgency too — China is pushing hard toward its own crewed Moon landing by 2030, and the U.S. is determined to lead, not follow. This isn’t just about science. · A permanent lunar base means:Testing technologies for Mars missions in a real off-world environment · Developing in-situ resource utilization (turning Moon dirt into rocket fuel and oxygen) · Opening the door to a true cislunar economy · Inspiring the next generation of engineers, scientists, and explorers Private industry will play a massive role, as always — with contractors already building key hardware now being redirected. This is the kind of ambitious, focused leadership the space program has needed. From the first boots on the Moon in 1969 to building a thriving outpost there by the early 2030s — what an incredible leap forward. Significanly, the Moon isn’t just a destination anymore: it’s becoming home base for humanity’s expansion into the Solar System.

If the price of Bitcoin stays at $70,000 Michael Saylor’s $42 billion will end up buying another 600,000 BTC. This would give Strategy ~ 1.36 million BTC and their treasury would be larger than all of Satoshi Nakamoto’s wallets.

U.S. WORKERS MORE STRUGGLING THAN THRIVING For the first time since Gallup began tracking, 49% of U.S. workers report struggling in life, while only 46% say they’re thriving. This reverses 2022–2023 trends, when a majority were thriving, highlighting a steady post-pandemic decline in workforce well-being.

Asia is highly exposed to the Iran War energy shock: The Philippines and Vietnam source ~95% and ~90% of their crude oil imports from the Middle East. This is followed by Singapore, South Korea, Taiwan, Malaysia, and Thailand, each importing ~70% from the region. India and China, the two largest oil buyers in Asia, rely on the Middle East for ~55% and ~50% of their crude imports, respectively. By contrast, EMEA nations like Turkey, South Africa, Tunisia, and Central and Eastern Europe import less than 20% of their oil from the region. Asia's energy crisis is rapidly accelerating.
