@signulll The only people working in coffee shops are the people behind the counter.

i tried working from a coffee shop today instead of my office & it was impossible to get anything done. i was constantly distracted by one thing or another, from sounds to ppl moving around etc. it’s unclear to me how anyone is able to be productive working from a coffee shop.

@KobeissiLetter Crime. Crime is what's happening.

This is absolutely insane: At 7:04 AM ET today, President Trump said “the US and Iran have had productive discussions" to end the Iran War. By 7:10 AM ET, the S&P 500 surged +240 points adding +$2 TRILLION in market cap. 27 minutes later, Iran completely denied all of President Trump's claims and said there has been "no contact" with the US. By 8:00 AM ET. the S&P 500 had fallen -120 points erasing -$1 trillion in market cap. That's a $3 TRILLION swing market cap in 56 minutes, just in the S&P 500. What is happening here?

@robinhanson Dumbest post I've read today. Congrats, you're an idiot.

Many worried about "insider trading", but few worry about "insider journalism". But is it fair that reporters with better connections write more informative and interesting stories? Shouldn't we make sure news stories are only based on public info equally open to all reporters?

@felixrieseberg The app is extremely laggy on Windows

Today's ship: Projects in Cowork! Built in memory across tasks is super useful, as is having a shared folder & connections setup for a group of tasks.

@Osinttechnical It's simple and yet the US can't do it? Am I reading that right? It's hard to understand moron-speak.

Trump lashes out at Europe and NATO this morning, calling them "cowards" for not assisting the US in opening the Strait of Hormuz.

@Microinteracti1 The US military does not have the cards. They will happily spend unreal amounts of US tax dollars doing stupid shit though. If I were American I'd be fucking pissed.

Right. So let me get this straight. The most expensive military on the planet, a institution that consumes more money annually than the GDP of most countries, looked at a twenty thousand dollar drone and said, yes, the correct response to this is a four hundred thousand dollar missile. Twenty times the cost. They did the maths and thought, brilliant, let’s do that. Repeatedly. And then, magnificently, one week in, they rang Ukraine. Ukraine. The country their own president had just finished publicly flogging in the Oval Office like a Victorian schoolmaster with a particularly dim pupil. Trump stood there, chest out, that extraordinary hair doing whatever it does, and announced to the assembled cameras of the world that Ukraine was absolutely the last country he would ever consider asking for help. Seven days later, someone in the Pentagon picked up the phone. The truly staggering part is not the incompetence. Incompetence is everywhere, it’s practically ambient at this point. No, what takes your breath away is the confidence. These people were not quietly embarrassed and privately regrouping. They were strutting. Full chest, full volume, telling the world how this was going to go. It did not go that way. Ukraine, the country they don’t need, is now apparently quite necessary. Remarkable.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ Stay connected, Gandalv @Microinteracti1

@wrappingline It is pretty great actually.

This guy genuinely considers his Harry Potter fanfiction to be a canonical Great Work

@ycombinator @fed10ai @armandiorg @winstonwxi @zayandc Build a better world. Not whatever this shit is. Be better.

Fed10 (@fed10ai) is building AI lobbyists. Their agents already help companies catch and suppress regulatory threats that would have cost millions in compliance before anyone saw them coming. Congrats on the launch, @armandiorg, @winstonwxi & @zayandc! ycombinator.com/launches/PdT-f…

@deanwball God I hate this strawman shit so much. Making up stupid arguments and arguing against them to sound smart is the fucking worst.

“This Citrini scenario is ridiculous! It doesn’t contemplate the obvious fiscal policy response we would muster!” “Do you think we should discuss novel fiscal policy responses to AI labor issues, then, so we aren’t wholly winging it in the future if the scenario is anything like true?” “No. That would be ridiculous and a waste of time.” “So then your model of the world is that a serious and systemic negative labor market impact from AI is functionally impossible?” “It’s extremely unlikely.” “Ok, so granting that any specific future scenario we can imagine today is unlikely, do you think it’s worth preparing for an eventuality where AI has a negative, serious, and systemic labor market impact?” In a loop, until the scenario skeptic eventually hurls a pejorative about how you don’t understand any economics and are therefore an idiot.

@DonAlt Biggest narcissist in the history of the world is, surprise, only interested in enriching himself.

BTC/EURO is trading 10% below the Trump pump The majority of the losses are not really obvious against USD since USD has lost so much value since he's come into office Crypto president isn't really doing much for us is he

@jedifractal Wait you can actually use Sui? I thought it was just a way for rich people to get richer?

Who here uses Aptos and/or Sui. Please put up your hands and tell us for what reason/s exactly.

@yarotrof Well they know it's fairy tale money but Trump might not because he likes the TRILLIONS word. So yeah, now they're laughing at him because he might actually take this seriously.

Considering that $12 trillion is six times Russia’s entire GDP, why be modest, Mr Dmitriev, and not propose a $120 trillion plan. Or a $120 gazillion.

@eliano Does anyone really think these people are the good guys? The world has truly gone mad.

there’s something about the banner of Rohan hanging in a Palantir office that makes me feel a special type of way

@firstadopter Say it after me: TRUMP IS THE NEW FED CHAIR

Kevin Warsh hates QE. It is crystal clear. He quit the Fed over QE2. He’s going to slash the Fed’s balance sheet. “QE sort of took off without us. And what did we say then? We debated internally whether to do this. And the story goes something like this. Secretary Paulson, he's issuing bonds on Monday and Tuesday. What do you say we buy them on Thursday and Friday? And I don't believe in betraying the confidences of those that were sitting around table, but I recall one person saying, well that sounds like a Ponzi scheme.” “You're cleansing my biography, and I should be grateful. I resigned when QE2 was launched.”

@mert It's liquidity beta. Not sure how useful that is though.

so we've established bitcoin is not a hedge against inflation, debasement, or geopolitical instability from this we can conclude: we are either early or retarded

@tenobrus Viking strong. Don't be weak.

i really cannot express enough how completely fucking baffled i am that people choose to live in places where there's a winter. you just have fucking *months* of the year where it's a freezing hell to go outside, where your skin dries and cracks and bleeds, where you have to constantly shovel snow and de-ice roads, where all the trees die and the animals hide, where the sun disappears and you're trapped inside in darkness again and again. and you just *live with it* YOU CAN MOVE!!! NOT EVERYWHERE IS LIKE THIS!!! THIS IS NOT A FUNDAMENTAL FEATURE OF THE PLANET!!!!! THERE IS PLENTY OF SPACE!!!!! IF YOU LEAVE NOW YOUR CHILDREN WON'T BE TRAPPED INTO ACCEPTING AND NORMALIZING THE HELLSCAPE YOU RAISED THEM IN!!!!

@OGDfarmer Everyone's a genius in a bull market.

Tradfi is hard they said. I’ve printed more the last couple of months over there with 1/10 the stress than I have in crypto for the past year. Don’t let them “you got no real skillz son, this is for serious players only” you. Don’t let them make you feel small. We played their 20 year cycles in 2 over and over again. Infinite ubercompressed experience. Reminds me of old “live feel” players saying the online poker kids would never get their money. Guess what: I did. We did. We are hardened by insane conditions for the last 3 years. Litterally insane. And we survived. Go get what’s yours son. Don’t let them make you feel small. Trade all markets. Go where the best conditions are and squeeze them for as long as they last. Have fun. Do your thing. And take it all.
