@grok @Arcfunmi @grok what about data in non-US locations? where is it already proven and what's the climate condition like? What is the complexity, timing, and cost of obtaining permit in California, Pennsylvania, Florida, Texas? If modification is required, estimated cost for modification

These Chinese Capsule Castle geodesic domes are prefab kits for quick glamping/tiny setups (~$19k start, 3-day assembly). Real data is sparse (mostly resorts, few US permanent installs). Maintenance: Low, est $500-2k/yr (seals, cleaning; energy-efficient shape cuts HVAC). Repairs/month: ~0 after setup; typical homes see 1-2 minor/year total. Top 5 issues: 1. Panel joint leaks (common in domes). 2. US building code/permits hurdles. 3. Curved walls limit furniture/rooms. 4. Insurance/financing/resale tough. 5. Material QC/shipping from China. Durability: 20-50+ yrs structural if sealed well; excels in wind/snow vs boxes, but neglect causes problems. US integration: Electricity straightforward (wired for grid tie-in w/permits). Sewage moderate complexity (connect to muni if avail or septic; stilts add steps, state rules vary—often mandatory hookup nearby). Anecdotes: Resorts report fast wins & guest appeal; some owners fix leaks easily but note curved cleaning hassle. Check local codes before buy—promos hype, longevity unproven long-term in US climates.

@Arcfunmi @grok compute maintenance cost, typical numbers of repairs per month required after deployment, top 5 issues in real world deployment, anecdotal stories of real world usage, analyze durability, complexity of integration with existing sewage and electricity grid systems in US

These CHINESE housing solutions are INSANE

BREAKING: For the first time in its 52-year history, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission has approved the construction of a nuclear reactor based on core coolant technology invented AFTER 1960. It's about time!

🇮🇱 🇮🇷 Israel said forget the plan and torched 30 Iranian fuel depots The U.S. found out mid strike, basically. Their official response to Israel? “WTF.” Yeah, literally “WTF.” America is worried hitting civilian infrastructure just makes Iranians angrier and rally behind the regime. Oh, and oil prices are already losing it. Iran is sitting there like, keep touching our stuff and we will burn energy infrastructure across the whole region. $200 a barrel. They said it. Eight days in and the U.S. and Israel are already beefing. Iran is just watching and taking notes. Source: Axios

Today, we're introducing Spectre I, the first smart device to stop unwanted audio recordings. We live in a world of always-on listening devices. Smart devices and AI dominate our world in business and private conversations. With Deveillance, you will @be_inaudible.

@aidaxbaradari @jack @be_inaudible Really useful. Any dataset for recordings by this device available for comparison / adversarial tests?

@NewYorkStateAG Sounds like a statement coming from Ministry of Culture in China - while they are at it, maybe they should consider importing the “anti-addiction system” that limits game time to 3 hours per day per person, built and deployed in 2007

Valve, a video game developer, has made billions of dollars by letting children and adults illegally gamble for the chance to win valuable virtual prizes.  These features are addictive and harmful. That's why I'm suing to stop Valve’s unlawful conduct and protect New Yorkers.

Today, we introduce Zodiac as an OS for onchain operations. Bringing together years of Safe-native work into a single system, Zodiac gives teams programmable control over permissions, execution, and automation. Zodiac launches with access limited to early teams.

@Kekius_Sage Very cool. Found the full-length video here. youtu.be/EK32jo7i5LQ?si…

@NathieVR Great for long international flights. Helps with the luggage and backpack too

This Chinese streamer cut the Apple Vision Pro’s weight in half using a helium balloon.

@tether Nice, needed this for a long time, wasn’t expecting such thing from a company known for stablecoin - I guess far more than stablecoins now

Tether Launches PearPass, a Peer-to-Peer Password Manager to Eliminate Cloud Breach Risks. Read more: tether.io/news/tether-la…

@MetaMask Wow, that makes life so much easier. Would be nice if imported accounts and hardware wallet accounts can do that too through Metamask

Additionally, swapping into BTC on MetaMask earns you MetaMask Rewards points. 👀 Update to the latest version of MetaMask to get started! 🔗 Learn more about Bitcoin on MetaMask: metamask.io/news/bitcoin-o…

BITCOIN HAS ENTERED THE CHAT MetaMask now supports BTC. 🟠

@jerallaire @arc That makes USDC much different from USDT and the rest of the stablecoins - including those issued by banks. Maybe we will get credit cards (not just debit cards like Metamask) denominated in USDC in the next year or two

A powerful milestone in the mainstream adoption and acceptance of USDC, with Visa announcing that all US card issuers (banks, fintechs, crypto firms) can now settle directly with Visa using USDC.  Visa also working with Circle to prepare for launching on @Arc. Dollar digital currency flowing from users, to Visa, and soon enough we think to merchants -- especially those that prefer to settle in digital dollars -- is more evidence that we are upgrading to a new internet financial system. We are proud of our longstanding collaboration with Visa, and excited by their input as a design partner of @Arc, as the world's leading payment companies help us to shape and eventually operate a new Economic OS for the internet. usa.visa.com/about-visa/new…

@joshwoodward And it builds a website with knobs to visualize and simulate charts in 3D, when it makes sense to do so, even when it is not asked directly. Was impressed 1-2 weeks ago when I asked about a complex question related to option trading and liquidity provisioning fee on blockchain

Deep Research now has charts, diagrams, animations, and more!

@KettlebellDan It's great at something ChatGPT and Gemini aren't (making fun of stuff, or anything X related), but almost never gets a serious job done as quickly or as well as ChatGPT/Gemini/Claude. At least for now

why aren't you using Grok every single day?
