BK | The Vorld ⚒️

I love my band of internet strangers 🫶

You heard the boss 🎮

@solanagaming sad I could only do it once

@mert not again

gaming on the blockchain actually already exists memecoins! if you squint, memecoins are a pure MMORPG where users PvP each other in small factions and different weapons and armour they pay for (terminals, dex, etc) they just replace LoL for a subset of users

And we call it Solana

Only a true neutral blockchain can simultaneously hold completely opposing opinions

Love it when Opus tells me this! 4 years is serious business!

@0xk2_ @calilyliu @vorldtv @indiesonsolana On it as we speak sir, season2 will be lit!

@calilyliu @vorldtv @indiesonsolana @JustBKhere Prove Lily wrong ser!

Also, gaming on a blockchain is not coming back

Follow @solanagaming for the latest on Solana’s incredible gaming ecosystem 🎮

Release from @SolanaFndn crisis comms: We do not condone the statements made by the Solana Foundation President @calilyliu. These statements, while factually correct and extremely based, have done irreparable harm to our gaming ecosystem. As a punishment, Lily has been asked to play all of the current games built on Solana.

@solanagaming @calilyliu Now the boss is taking up the challenge! Let’s gooo

Congratulations to @calilyliu, the new Head of Gaming at Solana Foundation 🎉

@SolPlay_jonas @indiesonsolana Hell yeah let’s goooo!

Cc @JustBKhere :D @indiesonsolana

I always knew she was bullish on games :D

Subtle things like this are why I enjoy creating beautiful vorlds! Islands of Aquatica's main island is up for wraps, rush mode coming soon to try! Polish hereon based on players' feedback!

Happy 6th birthday Solana fam. They said quit. The builders stayed. They said it's dead. The code persisted. They said move on. The network's never been stronger. Just one more hard quarter.

My problem was not reusing the code I have written, A problem that's solved for good!

@Pranit Well, make your prompt cycle efficient. I get the problem. I am building something myself too. if not, massive costs are inevitable. This is where local compute takes over the AI load. Interesting future ahead!

Anthropic just pulled the oldest trick in SaaS pricing. I pay $200/mo for Claude Max. My limits have been noticeably worse this past week. Now they announce 2x off-peak usage for two weeks. Sounds generous. But here’s what actually happens: limits quietly drop, a temporary 2x makes the reduced limit feel normal, the promo ends, and you’re left at a baseline lower than where you started. You just didn’t notice the downgrade because the 2x absorbed the transition. These AI plans are massively subsidized. The raw compute behind a heavy user costs multiples of the subscription price. Every move like this is the subsidy quietly correcting. Very sneaky, Anthropic.

This is what I am working on in my Claude code, and this is the pure magic happening behind the scenes. Dropping an update on everything this week!

imagine you’re Travis Kalanick you built Uber from nothing into a $70 billion company and changed how every city on earth moves then in the worst three weeks of your life, family tragedies hit, and five of your investors hand you a letter demanding you resign so you step down the board replaces you, your successor and board sell off the self driving division you created, the thing you believed was Uber’s entire future gone $4 billion to Aurora the mainstream media tries to write your obituary: toxic culture, bad leadership, and a cautionary tale silicon valley moves on as they always do but you don’t you don’t really forget you go quiet, completely quiet you take $150 million and buy a ghost kitchen company called CloudKitchens you raise over a billion dollars, hit a $15 billion valuation, build a company with thousands of employees and nobody even knows the name eight years in stealth, employees aren’t even allowed to put your company on their LinkedIn then today you rename the company Atoms, and it’s not a kitchen company anymore it’s a robotics company 1. food 2. mining 3. transport your first move? acquiring Pronto the autonomous vehicle startup built by Anthony Levandowski, the same engineer you originally swooped away from Google to build Uber’s self driving program oh and he went on to deploy 100+ autonomous trucks for one of the largest materials companies on earth now he’s coming back to work with you and the reports say Uber itself the same company that pushed you out, is now backing you to go after self driving harder than Waymo the guy they removed is the guy they end up needing poetic justice your framework aka everything in civilization is mined or grown, manufactured and moved you call it the golden age your manifesto ends with three words: “I never left” eight years of silence then this but here’s what people keep getting wrong about your situation everyone wants to call it a comeback or a revenge story it’s neither you just went quiet and built for eight years while everyone who wrote you off had stopped paying attention that’s not revenge, that’s just what true builder obsession looks like most founders would’ve stayed bitter most would’ve written a book and done a podcast tour, most would’ve taken the $2.5 billion in shares and disappeared off to a beach or Epstein’s island you didn’t do any of that you just kept building and now the same people who pushed you out need you again so whether you love him or hate him the most dangerous person in any room is the one who goes quiet yet never stops building karma is real welcome back Travis

@supermarioblock 💯

In 2023, the "Solana only has 75 devs" meme was running wild Looks like we're back at it now, and few understand how bullish that is
