Claude Design is probably the best vibe-coding design tool I’ve used so far. Only catch: on the $20 plan, you basically get one successful landing page prompt with zero room for edits.
If OpenAI is shipping a ton of subsidized compute straight to your desk, Anthropic is showing you how you’ll be begging for tokens over the next two years.

Chat GPT Pro subscription limit is literally a bottomless pit, it just never runs out.

pretty sure they're airdropping you about $10k a week of compute to use codex right now, enjoy it while it lasts

The blue button vs red button dilemma is really just a blueshift/redshift wave in disguise.
The button doesn’t exist outside the consciousness perceiving it. The choice doesn’t exist outside the state it arises from.
And the chooser isn’t some separate center either, just an experience arising within the field.

The pressure toward depopulation will only increase across other countries. At the same time, we’re on the cusp of a massive shift in the labor market.
Notice how they have no intention of putting a cap on humanoid robots.

JUST IN: Switzerland to vote on capping its population at 10 million.

@lBattleRhino stablecoins + agentic finance the only asymmetric opportunity on the horizon, given how DeFi has been disrupted by hacking attacks, whilst RWA TCG assets are trapped in their own micro-bubble

You can’t say people say this every cycle low because I didn’t. You can’t say it’s trending to say this now because of equities outperformance as i have been saying this before we died and ive been a primarily tradfi trader my entire career. You can’t just constantly sentiment counter.
Please, substantive arguments for why crypto underperformed and why this will change.

I keep seeing people say man everyone is apathetic we gonna run the bull back so hard time to lock in. Are none of you concerned eth / sol barely eclipsed prev cycle aths, btc clearly demonstrating diminishing returns cycle over cycle with saylor holding inordinate amount, quantum threat, only interesting narratives exist in tradfi etc etc
Could go on, same reasons i spoke about when derisking last year. Serious question, does none of this concern you when you’re blindly parroting that the next cycle is gonna make ppl “so fkn rich”. Sure there’s always asymmetric opps that come up to make money on but holding spot majors hasnt felt worthwhile for a long ass time.
Curious on thoughts from people still bullish the space going forward

@prestonjbyrne Preston, your hamster has great memetic potential, so don’t ignore it.

I can't send any more hamsters, I will need a new joke. Working on it

@prestonjbyrne send 10000 Nigel the hamster clones to the UK

Today was a big deadline. Ofcom sent a bunch of letters to Facebook, Instagram, Roblox, Snapchat, TikTok and YouTube on 12 March asking them to "take further action" on kids' safety.
Keep in mind, there was no investigation that prompted this. Ofcom just demanded: "do more."

At this rate, in three years only the islands will be left on that list, and even they may struggle once supply chains start breaking.
Choosing residency based only on effective tax rate doesn’t work anymore. You also have to price in resource security, geopolitical and environmental risk.

@thokani @SilenceCapital @brian_armstrong @cobie @base Bro, time to shilling that Nigel hamster like there’s no tomorrow.
English
@SilenceCapital @brian_armstrong @cobie @base U sound like a loser that likes to blame anyone but urself
English
still can’t believe @brian_armstrong gave @cobie $500M for an ICO website that got shut down after just two successful ICOs
could’ve given $1M to 500 innovative app builders, even if 100 apps survived it would’ve created an onchain renaissance on @base
Cobie ended up buying a giant castle with a single purpose to poorshame CT while he is not even using it and just sits in one basement room in front of a computer. cobie basically handed out most of the funds to some boomer who doesn’t even have anyone to inherit the wealth and you’re asking why crypto is down so bad. this is worse than solana KOL extraction season, at least some of them are giving money back to the market by trading on hyperliquid
btw i’m raising for a very innovative onchain game app

@Object_Zero_ Infra doesn’t get rebuilt by the magic of ZIRP. For something new to be built, something old has to be destroyed first. In a deflationary era, debt is deflationary too.
War and natural disasters will likely be the main forces that make that reset happen.
English
Bill Ackman is right…
2005-2020, globalisation and Chinese urbanisation caused 15 years of global deflation and a long era of ZIRP.
2025-2045, AI will likely cause a long period of deflation (big productivity gains) and likely a long era of ZIRP.
The West mostly failed to make use of the first ZIRP era, we didn’t understand it. We did not replace and upgrade our infrastructure, we did not roll SovX far into the future.
I expect we will not repeat this mistake, during the AI buildout.
A huge amount of infrastructure is going to be built over the next 20 years, backed with long dated cheap bonds.
This is the monetary and fiscal structure of the era we find ourselves in. You are now leaving the eye of the storm.

Bill Ackman says this is a good environment to deploy capital. We’re still in the earliest innings of the AI economy and what may become the largest industrial buildout in human history.

I need to start running something local
@0xSero and @sudoingX would you say a Mac Studio M3 ultra 96 GB running qwen 3.6 27B would suffice for basic good quality coding or you would recommend something else on that budget range?
