@musafirforever @TeamYouTube Never reinstate anything for people who beg with emojis. They are always a negative for society.

Hey @TeamYouTube my video was educational only. I never promised guaranteed profits, fast money, or unrealistic returns. Still got a strike and rejected appeal. Please review it manually once again. 🙏

@thegamblerXBT @TheNotoriousMMA Those aren't even in his top 10 most disgusting behaviors. 140 characters could only list off about 3% of them.

@TheNotoriousMMA dont you cheat on your wife an do drugs? bro.

Make sure and relax, folks. As God has it! 🙏

@TheNotoriousMMA Who would want anything with this slimy dude's name on it? If you're not embarrassed to be seen drinking a creepy dude's drink, you should be.

@FrankBr05713205 We can't even get a knob for anything. They definitely don't care about the owner experience enough to NOT save the $13 they get by deleting the dipstick.

Many automotive manufacturers now are removing our traditional engine oil dipsticks in favor of electronic monitoring systems. As a veteran automotive technician, I know firsthand how important oil level is in engines and how important it is to be able to accurately check that. I also know how unreliable electronic sensors can be. I personally would not buy a car that does not have an oil dipstick so I can check my engine oil easily, conveniently and reliably. If an oil level sensor fails on one of these cars, then you have no way to manually check the engine oil. This is not acceptable to me.

@AlexLathery He didn't do a great job in an hour.

I finally understand why so many plumbers love water heaters. Ours got replaced today. Guy showed up, did the whole thing himself in about an hour, and charged ~$2,000. Pretty good business.

@nyaraVT I've never met a single person who needs to publicly proclaim they are neurodivergent, actually be anything other than someone in need of attention. Neurotypical af

Maybe it’s because I’m neurodivergent, but it blows my mind how so few people actually want to be a good person. Good people are celebrated in movies, games and books, yet rarely does anyone in the real world actually care enough to be a good human being.

@RealPlantBrah Have minimums, regardless of job $1500 no matter what

Im probably never going to do $500 jobs at $5,000,000 houses again. We left & now they’re claiming this oil on the driveway is from my truck?

@arielhelwani Did his lip fillers get infected?

Paulie Malignaggi reveals the cuts from his last bare-knuckle fight led to serious health complications: “They have people in the UK who work in the NHS that, in America, probably wouldn’t even be allowed to work on farm animals, and they let them work on human beings in these hospitals. I was in that hospital all night. My wounds were not cleaned, so basically what I’m getting at is the complications from one of the stitches and the cuts — which is this one right here — have been constantly infected and pussing out, probably up until a few weeks ago."

@GovBobFerguson You're propping up the scam system with tax money Foolish choice

36,500 fewer Washingtonians enrolled in healthcare provided under the Affordable Care Act this year. Many are facing doubling or tripling premiums thanks to President Trump and the MAGA Senate. We can't backfill the entirety of their devastating cut. However, we invested $55 million in our budget for assistance on health care premiums for low-income individuals to mitigate some of the impact.

@JamesSurowiecki The fact it appears to be legal, and the government allows it is reason enough to burn everything to the ground. A revolution brought on by HP and Adobe scams is worth getting behind.

There are very few things I hate more than subscription plans for software and hardware, and HP's printer plan is among the worst of the worst. Buy a Brother laser printer and be done with it.

@dig_deeper1 Dealing directly with homeowners is almost never worth it, even at double the price. I would charge triple. minimum

Why do HVAC companies charge a builder $5,500 to install one AC conditioner unit of 5 tons but when a home owner calls the same company to install the same AC unit the company charges $10,000 to the home owner?

@brian_armstrong Bookmark this I won't end well

This is an email I sent earlier today to all employees at Coinbase: Team, Today I’ve made the difficult decision to reduce the size of Coinbase by ~14%. I want to walk you through why we're doing this now, what it means for those affected, and how this positions us for the future. Why now Two forces are converging at the same time. We need to be front footed to respond to both. First, the market. Coinbase is well-capitalized, has diversified revenue streams, and is well-positioned to weather any storm. Crypto is also on the verge of the next wave of adoption, with stablecoins, prediction markets, tokenization, and more taking off. However, our business is still volatile from quarter to quarter. While we've managed through that cyclicality many times before and come out stronger on the other side, we’re currently in a down market and need to adjust our cost structure now so that we emerge from this period leaner, faster, and more efficient for our next phase of growth. Second, AI is changing how we work. Over the past year, I’ve watched engineers use AI to ship in days what used to take a team weeks. Non-technical teams are now shipping production code and many of our workflows are being automated. The pace of what's possible with a small, focused team has changed dramatically, and it's accelerating every day. All of this has led us to an inflection point, not just for Coinbase, but for every company. The biggest risk now is not taking action. We are adjusting early and deliberately to rebuild Coinbase to be lean, fast, and AI-native. We need to return to the speed and focus of our startup founding, with AI at our core. What this means To get there, we are not just reducing headcount and cutting costs, we’re fundamentally changing how we operate: rebuilding Coinbase as an intelligence, with humans around the edge aligning it. What does this mean in practice? - Fewer layers, faster decisions: We are flattening our org structure to 5 layers max below CEO/COO. Layers slow things down and create coordination tax. The future is small, high context teams that can move quickly. Leaders will own much more, with as many as 15+ direct reports. Fewer layers also means a leaner cost structure that is built to perform through all market cycles. - No pure managers: Every leader at Coinbase must also be a strong and active individual contributor. Managers should be like player-coaches, getting their hands dirty alongside their teams. - AI-native pods: We’ll be concentrating around AI-native talent who can manage fleets of agents to drive outsized impact. We’ll also be experimenting with reduced pod sizes, including “one person teams” with engineers, designers, and product managers all in one role. In short: AI is bringing a profound shift in how companies operate, and we’re reshaping Coinbase to lead in this new era. This is a new way of working, and we need to leverage AI across every facet of our jobs. To those who are affected I know there are real people behind these decisions — talented colleagues who have poured themselves into this company and our mission. To those of you who will be leaving: thank you. You’ve helped build Coinbase into what it is today, and I am sincerely grateful for everything you've done. All impacted team members will receive an email to their personal account in the next hour with more information, and an invitation to meet with an HRBP and a senior leader in your organization. Coinbase system access has been removed today. I know this feels sudden and harsh, but it is the only responsible choice given our duty to protect customer information. To those affected, we will be providing a comprehensive package to support you through this transition. US employees will receive a minimum of 16 weeks base pay (plus 2 weeks per year worked), their next equity vest, and 6 months of COBRA. Employees on a work visa will get extra transition support. Those outside of the US will receive similar support, based on local factors and subject to any consultation requirements. Coinbase prides itself on talent density. Our employees are among the most talented people in the world, and I have no doubt that your skills and experience will be highly sought after as you pursue your next chapters. How we move forward To the team that is staying, I know this is a difficult day. We’re saying goodbye to colleagues and friends you've been in the trenches with. But here’s what I want you to know as we move forward together: Over the past 13 years, we have weathered four crypto winters, gone public, and built the most trusted platform in our industry. We’ve made it this far by making hard decisions and by always staying focused on our mission. This time will be no different – nothing has changed about the long term outlook of our company or industry. And most importantly, our mission has never been more important for the world. Increasing economic freedom requires a new financial system, and we’re building it. The Coinbase that emerges from this will be more capable than ever to achieve our mission. Brian

@DefiantLs High as fuck on stimulants

Rachel Zegler attented the Met Gala What's with the faces?

@ThoughtCrimes80 Would a jury ever convict if they just got plowed over 100% of the time this happens?

If you can believe it, the lane filtering laws in Colorado have made these douche bags even more annoying. 😑

@hjluks Check the replies to find out? Doctors are out of control.

I've been a shoulder surgeon for close to 30 years... It's pretty clear now that most rotator cuff tears do not require surgery. Some do. Most don't. Why is that? Why can a shoulder with a cuff tear function normally? Well... check the first reply and find out.

@LizzieMarbach I know way more women that play video games (mind numbing dumb phone games) than men. Literally.

I know this is unpopular, but it will always be unattractive for a grown man to play video games. Some women might be understanding or pretend like they don’t care that you spend hours playing, but they do. It is extremely unattractive to women and will never not be. 🤷🏼‍♀️

@thegarybrecka Stop lying. If you set the room temperature too low every women within a 3 block radius will be interrupting your sleep all night long to let you know their feet are cold.

The temperature of your room tonight will determine the quality of your deep sleep. Your core body temperature needs to drop 1 to 2 degrees Fahrenheit to initiate and sustain slow-wave sleep. Set your thermostat to 65 to 68 degrees before you get into bed. If you do not have AC, use a fan, open a window, or try a cooling mattress pad.

@BrendanCarrFCC Can we get the death penalty for the SCAM robocallers?

The FCC is expanding our crackdown on illegal robocalls. We just voted on a proposal that would require enhanced vetting before any provider can onboard new callers. These enhaced “Know-Your-Customer” regulations are part of a broader FCC effort to combat illegal calls.

@cybelethebest If you can't get them to 40 lbs by 1 year old, you have failed that child.

Honestly, I think it’s ridiculous that every time I drop off my 2yo at Montessori, I have to drag in my 7 mo who weighs like 28 pounds in a stroller instead of just leaving him in the car for like two minutes tops. I’ve thought about doing it, but I could imagine one of the parents telling on me or something.
