@flkrs Blind leading the blind

Apparently one cannot directly post to grok. It must be in a reply.

@grok Are harmonic and BAM extractive solana validator clients? Do they slow down or delay Solana transactions for everyone?

@flkrs @grok is this true?

“Ok, I’m going to put my headphones on now…” @bradyowen i love the office so much

Former Dropbox CTO says rise of AI code has completely changed software engineer recruiting (vastly increases value of side projects, reduces value of CVs): “One of our members recently ran about 20 work trials for engineering hires—essentially, extended, weeklong job interviews—and found zero correlation between years of experience and adaptability to AI tools. Another member told me that what predicted success in hiring people who possess that adaptability was evidence of a builder’s disposition: cool personal websites, side projects, an obvious love of making things. FAANG on the résumé and a name-brand university, meanwhile, predicted almost nothing.”

@TaylorTwellman @realsaltlake what about Austin FC

Love watching @realsaltlake right now. Fun team with a huge upside considering they aren’t at full strength.

imagine getting up a 5AM, getting drunk because the govt opened the bars early, watching your team barrage the opponent nearly 2x shots on net, but only 1 connects, and then you lose in OT and now you're hungover at 9AM feels bad man

@therealchaseeb Facts. Unwell over this

RIP to the goated James Van Der Beek, whose best role was not Dawson’s Creek or Varsity Blues, it was The Rules of Attraction. Incredible and dark indie film.

@nathan_liow @heliuslabs @mert @nick_pennie @owen_venter Welcome to the team! 🎉

I got tired of paying for credits, so I joined the team. I’m excited to announce that I will be joining @heliuslabs as a full-time engineer to build Solana’s biggest apps. Huge thank you to @mert, @nick_pennie, @owen_venter, and @kneeecolesf for the opportunity to work with the greatest team in the ecosystem. All this came from one tweet; you can just do things. God did.

the solana majors sections on orb is starting to look like an exchange you can trade, analyse, or hold any of these coins without leaving solana more on the way

@lagunacarta @SolanaFndn Congrats!! 🎉🎉

I’m excited to share that I’ve joined @SolanaFndn as Ecosystem Marketing Lead. What’s always drawn me to Solana is the magical way the technology, the people, and the culture reinforce each other. There’s an incredible amount being built here every day, and I’m excited to help bring more of that work to the surface. Ecosystem-level visibility goes a long way for founders and teams. My job is to help you win by telling better stories, creating more ways to show up, and strengthen the heartbeat of the chain. When ecosystem teams win, Solana wins. If you’re building on Solana and want to yap about marketing, my DMs are open!

A simple rule for life that rarely fails: Optimize for enthusiasm. Make as many choices as you can that leave you feeling energetic and interested. Pay attention to when you have the urge to pursue or participate in something and do more of it.
