@JasonPLowery was at pains in #Softwar to establish the subtle truth that ‘object-oriented’ software design concepts are arbitrarily derived abstractions… …SO THAT he could establish the proper department to analyze the abstraction “COIN” as belonging to cybersecurity and computer science. Hey Spaceboi, Wen DoD gonna start strategically STOCKPILING Bitcoin? 👀

A guy in his 40s with a MacBook Air made this in his mom’s basement with $500 in credits. This is what microbudget film & TV looks like now. Models used in the description.

Tesla has released a new video with @DavidMoss, highlighting his recent cross-country trip on FSD (Supervised) with zero disengagements. "Moss’s Model 3 handled every road sign, turn and Supercharger stop, traveling over 2,700 miles in 2 days and 20 hours. Part of his over 12,000-mile streak of FSD (Supervised) usage, David’s cross-country trip demonstrates the reliability, capability and ease of FSD (Supervised)."

Strive went public six months ago. Most people still haven’t looked at what they built. 📰 TLDR: Strive (Nasdaq: $ASST) is the first publicly traded asset management Bitcoin treasury company. Founded by Vivek Ramaswamy, it holds 13,628 BTC, manages $2.5B in assets, issues its own preferred stock to fund accumulation, and uses Bitcoin as the hurdle rate for every capital decision. ❗️ The treasury: ✅ 13,628 BTC as of March 17, 2026. Top 10 corporate Bitcoin holder globally ✅ Went public via reverse acquisition of Asset Entities Inc. in September 2025. Six months old as a public company. ✅ Acquired Semler Scientific in January 2026, adding 5,048 BTC and a healthcare technology business in a single deal ✅ Bitcoin Yield: 22.2% in Q4 2025. 13.8% quarter to date through mid March 2026. Bitcoin per share is the KPI, not total BTC. ❗️ The capital structure: ✅ $SATA: Variable Rate Series A Perpetual Preferred Stock, currently yielding 12.75%. Higher than $STRC. ✅ First $SATA offering raised $148.4M at $80 per share in November 2025. Follow-on raised $109.2M at $90 per share in January 2026. ✅ New policy: Strive will not issue $SATA below $100. Target range narrowed to $99-$101. The par mechanic now mirrors $STRC. ✅ SATA dividend reserve extended to 18 months. Combined Bitcoin, STRC, and cash reserves cover over 19 years of SATA interest payments. ✅ Allocated $50M of corporate treasury directly into STRC 35% of available cash deployed into Strategy’s preferred instrument ✅ Bitcoin is the explicit hurdle rate. Every capital allocation must outperform Bitcoin over time or it does not get made. ❗️ What makes it different: ✅ Strive is both an asset manager and a Bitcoin treasury simultaneously. $2.5B in AUM generates fee revenue that funds the accumulation engine. ✅ The Semler acquisition came with a healthcare diagnostics business now operating under the name Clinivanta. Michelle Fox, former CMO of Teleflex, appointed CEO in February 2026. They are building it out, not parking it. ✅ Avik Roy joined as Chief Strategy Officer. Joe Burnett joined as VP of Bitcoin Strategy. The team build signals institutional ambition beyond pure accumulation. ✅ Buying STRC with their own treasury while issuing SATA to fund BTC purchases means Strive is participating in the same structured finance ecosystem it competes in. ✅ Vivek Ramaswamy founded the company. The political network and institutional access that comes with that is not priced into the stock. 🏆 Why it matters: ✅ Strategy proved a pure treasury company can work. Strive is testing whether an asset manager with fee revenue, an operating business, and a Bitcoin treasury can compound faster. ✅ SATA at 12.75% yield vs STRC at 11.5% means Strive is offering more income to attract preferred capital. The competition for yield demand is now public. ✅ The Semler acquisition model is replicable. Any cash rich operating company becomes a potential Bitcoin acquisition vehicle. ✅ Six months public. Top 10 globally. 19 years of dividend coverage. The pace suggests this is nowhere near done. Strategy built the template. Strive is running a different version of it with an asset management engine underneath. Follow if you’re trying to actually understand this space.

I told you Elon has our backs… If it’s true that he’s allocating 30% of the SpaceX IPO to retail investors, this could be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for everyday people like you and me. I’m serious when I say this. If you’ve been waiting for your shot, start getting your $ ready now. This IPO is going to be one of those moments people look back on and wish they didn’t miss.

BREAKING: Elon Musk is planning an unprecedented move for retail investors in the SpaceX IPO: Elon Musk is considering allocating up to 30% of SpaceX’s IPO to retail investors, far above the typical 5% to 10%, per Reuters. Under this plan, @ElonMusk looks to "tap loyal fans" in the upcoming IPO which could exceed $1.75 trillion in valuation. The plan includes a hands-on approach to banks, assigning firms specific roles rather than broad competition. Bank of America is expected to lead US retail distribution, alongside firms like Morgan Stanley and UBS. The biggest IPO in history is prioritizing retail.

After eight months in stealth, Brett Adcock, the billionaire founder of the $39 billion humanoid robotics company Figure AI and aviation startup Archer announced his newest venture: an artificial intelligence lab named Hark. Hark is setting out to build a highly proactive, multimodal "personal intelligence" system. Rather than just building a software model, Hark is developing both the underlying foundation models and the custom hardware devices required to serve as the physical interface between humans and the AI.
Brett Adcock@adcock_brett

Today I'm excited to introduce Hark, a new artificial intelligence lab building the most advanced, personal intelligence in the world We've been in stealth for 8 months, assembling one of the greatest AI and hardware teams on the planet I want to explain why I started Hark and what we're focused on I've spent the last 3 years working on the hardest AI challenge imaginable: giving AI a humanoid body. On the digital side, I've been using all the existing LLM chatbots - and I have to say, they feel incredibly dumb to me AGI, in the limit, should feel like a sci-fi movie. It should be able to listen and talk. It should have persistent memory and be highly personalized. It should see and touch the world. But we're far from this today We are crafting a new interface to AGI. Intelligence that lets you offload your mental workload into a system that begins to think like you and sometimes ahead of you We started Hark with one goal: build the world's most advanced personal intelligence - paired with next-generation hardware designed to serve as a universal interface between humans and machines hark.com

The minivan era is over. Elon just confirmed Tesla is working on something cooler than a minivan. Many are hoping it's a Cyber SUV built on the Cybertruck platform. Same durability. Same tech. Same futuristic design. This would be the next evolution of what an SUV should be. Who's ready to order theirs?

NASA is building SR-1 Freedom, a nuclear electric propulsion spacecraft, launching to Mars in 2028.  We are proud to announce this during the 250th year of the United States, the mission’s name reflects the spirit of American innovation and exploration.  This mission will bring America’s nuclear power capabilities to space and deliver the Skyfall payload of Ingenuity class helicopters to explore the Red Planet.     Nuclear power and propulsion will be the key to undertaking crewed missions to Mars and exploring the outer solar system.     Space Reactor-1 (SR-1) Freedom will make the next giant leap and accomplish a key component of President Trump’s National Space Policy, bringing nuclear to space alongside @Energy.
NASA@NASA

NASA is advancing nuclear power and propulsion in space to accomplish President Trump’s national space objectives. With SR-1 Freedom, launching in 2028, we will demonstrate nuclear electric propulsion and deliver SkyFall helicopters to Mars. In collaboration with @Energy, these capabilities are key to future missions to Mars and beyond. A new chapter of deep space exploration begins. 🚀
