I am this technology years old

@farokh Love to see it friend! Congrats

I can now say that the greatest accomplishment of my life was marrying the woman of my life. She is my rock, she is my everything.

STORYTIME: Explaining last week's BONK DAO exploit but was it actually a legal action? CoinDesk's @samewen has the details.

@chamath @theallinpod agree and also would love to know the percentage of clips we are seeing are being boosted/created by pay for play clipping services

One thing that has surprised me is that shorts of @theallinpod are growing very quickly. And overall usage ramp shows this kind of content driving a huge portion of our growth. Bad news if your content format is 30-90mins. People love 1-2min.

INSIGHT: $7.2B has migrated from LayerZero to @Chainlink CCIP since May's $292M Kelp exploit, with Mantle's $2.5B Super Portal the latest to make the switch.

Does anyone talk about ChatGPT anymore?

@Ed_Balloon people just be good

Just be good people

@dnapway So should the blue states leave the US if Vance were to win? Also blue states have paid 60% of federal taxes generally so in essence they are already paying for red state liabilities right?

David Friedberg predicts AOC will be President and says red states might leave the U.S. if she wins "I do predict AOC will be president. I would say AOC would be my front runner based on the extraordinary cost of living and wealth disparity. Those two things are going to continue to drive the socialist movement over the next 24 months." "And if AOC comes in and they bail out California and they federalize California's liabilities, you're going to see parts of this union, the red states... say, why should we be part of this union anymore?" "We don't want to pay for all of these liabilities that these blue states have accrued and that we are now being asked to bail out. And that is where I think you face a crisis of the union in the years ahead."

Traders chasing 10x didn't leave. They just moved to Nasdaq and chip stocks. @samewen tells you more 👇

I haven’t seen nearly enough being shared here among our community about the catastrophe unfolding in Venezuela. On Wednesday, two massive earthquakes struck the country back-to-back, measuring 7.2 and 7.5 and hitting only 39 seconds apart. Caracas, La Guaira, and surrounding areas have been devastated. More than 50,000 people remain reported missing, and every minute matters. This would have been catastrophic anywhere, but Venezuela entered this disaster after more than 20 years of political crisis, corruption, and neglect. Buildings, hospitals, roads, utilities, and emergency systems were already fragile, and we are now seeing what that neglect has cost our people. During the most critical hours, ordinary Venezuelans were digging through rubble with their bare hands and whatever tools they could find. The official response has been slow and opaque, and access to some of the hardest-hit areas has been restricted. People are angry, grieving, and desperate. Rescue teams and aid have arrived from countries including Mexico, El Salvador, and Colombia, but the need is still enormous: rescue equipment, medical care, water, food, shelter, and direct financial support for trusted organizations working on the ground. I created VenezuelaEarthquakeRelief.com to gather verified ways to help and donate. Financial donations are especially important because they allow organizations on the ground to respond quickly as needs change. Please share the website, even if you aren’t able to donate. I’ll also be releasing an art collection as NFTs, with proceeds going toward relief efforts in Venezuela. I’ll share the full details, recipients, and transparent documentation when it goes live. Please keep Venezuela and my people in your thoughts and prayers. Share verified information. Donate if you can. And if you have any questions or need help finding a trustworthy way to contribute, please write to me. 🇻🇪

Strategy’s Bitcoin bet is sitting on a roughly $13B unrealized loss, Binance is restricting services in parts of Europe after missing the MiCA licensing deadline, and BlackBerry stock surges on growing demand for its AI and robotics software. @samewen has what you need to know.

@AriFleischer Except NYC is the best country in the world and everyone wants to move here. Perhaps you should retire to Florida sooner than later.

Free advice for New Yorkers: get out while you still can. The rise of socialists in NYC will threaten everyone. Mamdani’s power will increase, socialists will gain more seats and they’re coming next for you. Get out now. NYC is going down the tubes.

“Claude, how do I do law?”

what is going on with X impressions these days? they seem all over the place and very sus of the current numbers <shadow ban me starting...now>

The other angle of the situation at the Knicks parade yesterday is insane. A group of strangers jumped into action and ended up saving his life with Narcan.

@_JustDominiqueC @desusnice negative, as for my height...

@SamEwen @desusnice you police?

Most of nypd is under 5 feet 6 inches and we need to discuss this
