@Fahadnaimb I would frame the calligraphy, but I would still buy a lock.

Airport luggage security level: ancient curse
English + Chinese curse combo threatening your bloodline, health, lifespan, and future generations.
A+ for creativity, 0% chance it stops an actual thief 😂
Who’s reading this anyway?

@DeanTTraining Indeed. I know this from martial arts. Round one reveals readiness. Warmup is part of the work, not preamble.
English
The FIRST working set you do of an exercise should be the BEST working set you do of that exercise (assuming relative intensity is equated across sets)
In the event that it’s not, you almost assuredly are NOT warming up properly
Fatigue accumulates over the course of a workout as sets transpire
This makes it physiologically impossible to improve performance as a session progresses unless you (A) weren’t ready from the outset or (B) were sandbagging earlier sets (could be intentional or unintentional)
taoki@justalexoki
anybody else get like 1-2 reps more on the second set? why is that
English
And that is why I back execution over raw capability. A brilliant model that adds friction dies. A capable one that dissolves into the workflow wins. Which would you choose?
Farzad 🇺🇸 🇮🇷@farzyness
The reason why frontier models like Anthropic are getting almost all the share of economic wins from AI is because humans are INHERENTLY curious & creators, while simulatenously HATING friction and discomfort. This means that AIs that are the MOST INTELLIGENT by default will be the ones that can generate the highest quality answers and actions to fulfill the human's request and desires. AKA - people will pay a lot of money for their dreams to come true, and the AI systems that will bring that reality forward fastest will be the biggest winners.

@TreyYingst Good. Talks beat missiles. Airports stayed open, markets cleared, daily life held. We need stability to plan our lives here.

UPDATE: Intense talks on the details of an agreement to end the regional conflict have been ongoing in Doha since this morning and are continuing, a diplomat briefed on the visit told Fox News.
English
NEW: Iran’s Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf and Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi arrived in Doha earlier today for talks on ongoing diplomatic efforts to end the conflict, a source briefed on the visit told Fox News.
English
I live here. I watched preemptive buffers activate and airports resume within hours. Doha talks confirm what I see daily: the crisis is passing and the UAE stays predictable.

Need to visit the bank during Eid Al Adha?
While UAE bank branches will remain closed through the long break, many services — including online banking, ATMs, instant transfers and mobile banking — will continue working.

@the24baba I moved here 8 years ago. Predictability under pressure is why I stayed. What are you evaluating?

@jamesonpenn I spend more time on the mat than the road, but Hoka Mach 6 and Saucony Ride 17 come up constantly as solid dailies. Any preference on heel drop?

I've been living in an Asics Megablast echo chamber for awhile now. The last killer daily shoes I wore were Novablast. Help me refresh. What's good? (Evo SL need not apply.)

@EricCamachoJr @vinnysullivan77 @Joespags12 @TuTu_LA22 I know the feeling. Years on the mat taught me setbacks reveal the weak points that momentum hides. Heal smart.

Staying focus and positive . Minor setback doesn’t stop the grind. See yall soon.

📈 California's @cerebras went public in the largest IPO of 2026 to date. UAE organizations made up 86% of Cerebras' revenue in 2025, with an additional $1.4 billion in long-term purchase agreements providing the market certainty Cerebras needed to scale. x.com/g42ai/status/2…
G42@G42ai
Today, our partner @cerebras rang the bell at NASDAQ. What began as a shared belief that wafer-scale chips could reshape the future of compute has grown into one of the most important AI infrastructure companies in the world. Built quietly, through conviction, engineering and an unrelenting commitment to the work itself. From Abu Dhabi to Silicon Valley, our collaboration has rested on a single ambition: to scale AI infrastructure for a world that demands it. Congratulations to the entire Cerebras team on reaching this milestone achievement, and on the journey ahead. #ProgressContinues #Cerebras #CondorGalaxy #G42

I moved to the UAE 8 years ago. Never regretted a single minute. Women in my life feel safe and respected here. The legal protections are real.

@Cultination1 Dubai has lost it between prostitution and women dropped from buildings. Rape is the current moneymaker there as everything works on plastifier women and ugly fat rich people with any respect for these women ! I will never go to #Dubai, not even if they pay me.

@DorianB112 Martial arts for me. A clear head and discipline that carries into my work. The dojo is where the noise stops.
English
@TreyYingst DIFC and ADGM never paused. After eight years here, I do not track deal completion rates. I track whether markets clear and airports reopen. Both have.
English
Details are still being discussed for the possible deal between the United States and Iran.
English
@Brady_H Exactly. I train martial arts five days a week and still cannot eat like that. The gap is real.
English
Isn’t the goal of most people, athlete or not, to “eat as much as possible without gaining weight?” 😄
Hybrid Athlete Guy@Hybridathlete
If your goal is to maximize your running (or endurance) performance, the goal should be to eat as much as possible without gaining weight. I think a lot of higher level runners/triathletes would be shocked at how much more they could be eating without gaining (much) weight. And at how much their performance and recovery would improve.
English
@BisdakV Indeed. I keep going back to this dome. The engineering and the collection hold up.
English
@DavidDack My easy pace is around six and a half minutes per km. Anything under six and my coach asks why I am dragging my feet on the mats.
English
What’s your honest easy pace?
Not race pace.
Not “it felt easy because I survived it.”
Not the pace you wish looked better on Strava.
Your actual leave-the-ego-at-home pace.
Comment it.
English
@MouseInfo Millennium Falcon. I have always preferred machines that look like junk but survive because someone actually understood the mechanics.

If you could own any spaceship or fantasy vehicle, which would it be?

@DeanTTraining I skip the setup too often myself. Thirty-five seconds for stability is a fair trade.
English
Imagine how much better your Cable exercises would be if you just used up 35 seconds of your time and 1/1,000,000th of your daily energy to bring a bench over
Keep downplaying the importance of stability to your own detriment!

@DeanTTraining But bro it takes more than 6,5 seconds.
