@Polymarket They are so clever. What a 4D chess China is playing here…

JUST IN: China is reportedly refusing to approve a Pentagon official’s Beijing visit until Trump decides whether to proceed with a $14 billion arms package for Taiwan.

@Google Do you have to start the project from 0 or can it be a project you’ve been working on already?

@erichustls He didn’t say that this is so click baity…

Google's CEO just revealed why 2026-2030 is the last opportunity for regular people to get rich. Here’s exactly what he said… & how you can capitalize:

@ManOfFocus_ Completely true, life’s beautiful just keep going

You're a man. Forgive your parents. Forgive your ex-girlfriend. Forgive your former boss. Forgive your fake friends. It doesn’t matter how bad they wronged you. Grudges hold you back. Never revenge, heal, and move on with your life. That shit delays your blessings.

@piotrbinkowski Our old superstitions. Has a Sufi vibe to it

Two road songs from ANOTHER RACE. Which one sounds better? Our Old Superstitions or Neptune Wasteland

@simplifyinAI Does this work with a google earth api? Meaning does it work only for nyc or more cities and territories?

You can now generate a 3D model of any city in seconds. There’s a new GitHub repo that turns any city into a full 3D model with buildings and streets, straight from OpenStreetMap. Exports GLB. No login. No API key. MIT license.

@elonmusk @brivael They killed hundreds of thousands during the reign of terror in the French Revolution. Well meaning deep concepts by Voltaire got absolutely twisted by Rousseau and the killing spree started… a good historical example that illustrates the double side characteristic of every idea

@brivael Rousseau was such a diabolical asshole!

Je me rappelle au lycée, j'avais une prof de français qui me répétait : « Rousseau, c'est mon auteur préféré. » À l'époque, j'étais complètement illettré, je n'avais pas lu un roman. Depuis, j'ai rattrapé un peu le retard. Et force est de constater : Rousseau est lui aussi un poison pour l'esprit français. Tu as raison de remonter à lui. Le geste fondateur est là. L'homme naît bon, c'est la société qui le corrompt. La propriété, la hiérarchie, la tradition, l'institution, tout ce qui structure une civilisation devient suspect. Le mal n'est plus dans l'homme, il est dans l'ordre. Donc il suffit de défaire l'ordre. De cette intuition découle tout le reste. La Terreur, qui croit pouvoir régénérer l'homme par le décret. Le socialisme utopique, qui croit pouvoir abolir l'égoïsme par l'organisation. Le wokisme, qui croit pouvoir purifier la société en démantelant ses normes. À chaque fois la même logique : l'homme est innocent, l'institution est coupable, donc il faut casser l'institution. C'est faux. L'homme n'est pas né bon. Il est né pulsionnel, ambivalent, capable du meilleur et du pire. Les institutions n'oppriment pas une nature angélique, elles canalisent une nature ambiguë. Détruire les institutions ne libère pas un bon sauvage, ça libère un homme livré à ses pires instincts. Foucault, Derrida, Deleuze n'ont fait que radicaliser Rousseau avec les outils du XXᵉ siècle. La matrice est la même : soupçon de toute autorité, dissolution de toute hiérarchie, fantasme d'un état originel pur que les structures auraient trahi. Donc oui, le péché originel commence avec lui. Et la France a une double dette : avoir donné Rousseau au XVIIIᵉ, et avoir donné la French Theory au XXᵉ. Deux fois le même poison, juste recombiné. Au travail.

@EndWokeness What a complete uncultured woman, does she really believe what she is saying? Doesn’t she have a relative or someone than loves her and tells her this is completely nuts?

Hostin: "If you think Helen of Troy cannot be black, you don't know history" She says Greek culture is from Africans

@DanyBittel Incredible the level of detail, would love to see the workflow!!

A Raspberry. 90 stacks, 68 photos each. 2.37M splats. #3dgs

@nijineko33 @juliandorey @incredhistory Agreed. There is a Spanish series called Cortés that is not bad but still doesn’t grasp the greatness of the adventure

@MarcosCDart @juliandorey @incredhistory It absolutely deserves the Mel Gibson treatment. A sequel to Apocalypto. Cos right at end of that film - the Spanish ships.

@Miguel07Code @HyperFrames_ They just post this one that is even cooler x.com/shipper_now/st…

Yess I’m still working towards getting production ready videos, I’m using it w Claude code. Maybe this request is a bit dumb but it would be great if you could import a video of a competitor and it dissects the techniques of their video and writes a script adaptases to your product, mostly screen videoing the real demo

If you are adopting @HyperFrames_ in your business, workflow or whatever, feel free to reply here in the comments to add you here in the adopters list! hyperframes.heygen.com/community/adop…

@JakeFromHeyGen @Miguel07Code @HyperFrames_ I like a lot this videos of Shipper x.com/shipper_now/st…

@MarcosCDart @Miguel07Code @HyperFrames_ I really like this workflow! What types of competitor videos are you looking to copy? could you provide a reference video you'd like to adapt to your brand?

@Miguel07Code @HyperFrames_ I’m trying this w Claude and hyperframe but the result is quite mediocre

@sarthakgh I’m good days I get to do 20% but while doing them I get more ideas so overall 2%

"A simple way to put this is: How many ideas does one person have in a day, and how many of those things do they actually get to do? Until that proportion is 100%, you know there is a pretty meaningful bottleneck in terms of the drudgery of execution. I don’t think it’s anywhere close to 100%—it’s probably like 5%. You have all sorts of different ideas of things you’d want to do or build or try, and in practice it’s much harder to actually do them. I think of that as one of the big things AI will unlock. You see this especially in software. I have never met an engineering team that thought about their work as, alright, we’re shipping this project this month, and then next month we’re all done, no more software, we’ve built everything we wanted to build. It’s always the opposite—you have 85 projects and you have to pick six because that’s how much bandwidth you have. What we’ll get to see is that so many more people will just get to do all of the things they want to go do. When people say they love building software, what is it that they love? In reality, there’s this 10% of the job which is really just getting to express yourself—thinking about the trade-offs you want to make for every problem, what architectures you want to use, what the specific product is you want to build. And then there’s this other 90%, which is code monkeying and execution. When people say they really love building software, it’s usually the former that they gravitate towards. It’s the same in every field, and we’ll get to a point where you can just do 10 times more of the 10% you actually love."

@hxxntrr What if gold goes down? Wouldn’t the bank reassess the collateral and you’re fucked??

You can take $250K from the banks, buy $250K in gold bars, store them in a private vault, and use the gold as collateral to borrow ANOTHER $200K from a different bank at 4% interest that you use to pay off the original 0% cards You now have $200K in cash, $250K in gold, and your only debt is a 4% collateralized loan against an asset that has gone up every single year for 24 straight years This is how billionaires avoid taxes and it works at any scale Here's the chain: Step 1: Stack $250K in 0% business credit. Standard play. 6 banks, bureau sequenced, 11 days Step 2: Liquidate $242K (after processing fees) into your business checking Step 3: Buy physical gold. Not GLD. Not a gold ETF. Physical gold bars and coins from a dealer like APMEX, JM Bullion, or SD Bullion. At current prices ($2,300/oz) that's roughly 105 ounces. About 6.5 lbs of gold. Fits in a shoebox Ship it to a private vault (Brinks, Loomis, Delaware Depository). Storage cost: $150 to $300/year for this amount. The vault is insured. Your gold sits in an allocated account meaning those specific bars belong to you, not the vault company Step 4: This is the magic part. Take your vault receipt showing $242K in stored gold to a bank or private lender. Apply for a Securities-Based Line of Credit (SBLOC) or a collateralized precious metals loan. Multiple lenders offer this: banks, credit unions, and specialty lenders like Vaulted or BOLD They lend you 70 to 80% of the gold's market value. 75% of $242K = $181,500 Interest rate on a gold-collateralized loan: 3.5 to 5.5% depending on lender and LTV. Call it 4.5% You now have $181,500 in cash from the collateralized loan. Use it to pay off $181,500 of the original credit cards. Remaining credit card balance: $60,500. Pay that off over 6 months from income or savings What you now own: $242K in physical gold (in a vault, appreciating) $181,500 in collateralized debt at 4.5% (interest-only payments available) $0 in credit card debt All original credit lines still open and available Interest-only payment on $181,500 at 4.5%: $680/month "$680/month for what?" For holding $242K in gold that historically appreciates 8 to 12% per year. Gold has had a positive annual return in 20 of the last 24 years. It returned 13% in 2023. 27% in 2024. It's up 23% year-to-date in 2025 If gold returns 10% this year, your $242K in gold becomes $266K. You made $24,200 in appreciation. Your interest cost on the collateralized loan: $8,160/year. Net profit from the spread: $16,040 You're being paid $16K/year to hold gold that the bank's money bought And here's where the tax play comes in. This is the part that makes accountants get emotional You NEVER SELL THE GOLD. If you sell it, you pay capital gains tax (28% on precious metals, the highest rate for any investment asset). Instead you borrow against it. Loans are not taxable income. When you borrow $181K against your gold, the IRS doesn't consider that income. It's debt. Even though you have $181K in cash from the loan, your tax bill: $0 This is the same play billionaires use with stock. Elon Musk doesn't sell Tesla shares and pay 20% capital gains. He borrows against them at 2 to 3% interest from Goldman Sachs. He gets cash. Pays no tax. The shares keep appreciating. He borrows more against the higher value. Repeat forever You're doing the identical play with gold instead of Tesla stock. Bought with bank money instead of PayPal founding shares. At 0% initial cost instead of whatever Elon's cost basis was The perpetual loop: Year 1: Gold at $242K. Borrow $181K at 4.5%. Use cash to pay off credit cards and live Year 2: Gold appreciates to $266K. Refinance the collateralized loan at 75% of new value = $199K. Pay off old loan ($181K). Pocket $18K cash tax-free. New loan interest: $746/month Year 3: Gold at $293K. Refinance again. Pull out more cash. Loan gets larger but so does the collateral Year 5: Gold at $355K. Collateralized loan at $266K. You've pulled out $85K in tax-free cash over 5 years from refinancing against appreciation. Paid $0 in capital gains. Gold is still in the vault. Still yours The $680/month in interest is the only real cost. And it's deductible as investment interest expense if you itemize. At a 37% tax rate that $680/month costs you effectively $428/month after the deduction $428/month for a self-funding gold position that generates $16K+/year in appreciation and unlimited tax-free cash access through collateralized borrowing "What if gold drops?" If gold drops below your loan-to-value threshold the lender issues a margin call. You either deposit more collateral (more gold or cash) or they liquidate enough gold to bring the LTV back in line. At 75% LTV, gold would need to drop 25% before a margin call. Gold hasn't dropped 25% in a calendar year since 2013. And even then it recovered within 18 months The chain again: Chase lends you $250K at 0% You buy gold You borrow against the gold at 4.5% You pay Chase back with the gold loan Chase got $0 in interest The gold lender gets 4.5% (tax deductible for you) The gold appreciates 8 to 12% per year You never sell the gold so you never pay capital gains You borrow against the rising value tax-free Repeat until you die This is how generational wealth works. Not by earning income and paying 37% tax. By acquiring appreciating assets with borrowed money and borrowing against those assets instead of selling them. The tax code was written for this exact behavior the IRS taxes income. the IRS taxes sales. the IRS does not tax loans. borrow against everything. sell nothing. the billionaires figured this out 50 years ago. you can do the same thing with a credit score and 105 ounces of gold in a vault lmfaooo (we get 700+ score business owners $100K-$250K in 0% business funding. what you buy with it and how you structure it is between you and your accountant. link in bio)

@rodinrooh Hahahahah yess crazy, I wonder why though?? I’m sure your site is way more accessible to the user than the city one

@MarcosCDart new record lol

UPDATE: After 3.5 hrs, SF got angry, added a firewall, and killed my scraper and site lol
