@Contains_gluten @amuse Do you know what paralympics is? 😂

@amuse I love how when I do bench press, i have to arch my back and position my legs properly for support. this lady lies sprawled like a fat seal, no arch, no leg support. still won a medal. awe inspiring

UNFAIR? 50-year-old Egyptian athlete Nadia Ali earned a bronze with a 145kg bench press lifting the weight just a couple of inches due to her girth. The 2024 Paris Paralympics inspired so many people to become athletes despite a lack of athleticism.

@MilkRoadAI Only new thing about this is the word ”AI” in the pitch. I visited a farm in Sweden in 2014 (yes -14) where all the cows already had collars doing most of what is described here.

This is WILD. Peter Thiel just bet $2 billion on a collar that wraps around a cow’s neck. The company is called Halter and it has a proprietary algorithm that runs the entire operation. They actually trademarked the name for it and called it the Cowgorithm and here's how it works. A farmer opens an app, taps a button, and 600,000 cows across three countries start walking toward the milking station on their own. No farm dogs, fences or physical labor, it's just a solar-powered GPS collar sending sound and vibration cues to each animal. The collar does more than move cows around. It monitors digestion, fertility cycles, and health patterns in real time, 24 hours a day, using machine learning trained on the behavior of hundreds of thousands of animals. Halter was founded by a rocket engineer who built spacecraft at Rocket Lab before deciding that farming was the bigger unsolved problem. US ranchers alone have already used the technology to build over 11,000 miles of virtual fencing, roughly the full perimeter of the continental United States, saving an estimated $220 million in physical fencing costs. Halter's previous funding round valued the company at $1 billion. This new round, led by Thiel's Founders Fund, doubles that valuation to $2 billion before the new money even hits the account. And they charge farmers between $5 and $8 per animal per month on a subscription model, meaning the more cows they collar, the more locked-in the revenue becomes. The most powerful venture capitalist on earth just decided that the future of food and farming runs through an algorithm named after a cow. He might be right.

@madeofmistak3 Changing to ”main” was so dumb. ”master” for branches is not even in the context of master-slaves as with for ex databases. Which also means your joke doesn’t really fly 🥳

at work everyone was uncomfortable with using "master" as the main branch name on git so i changed it to "slave_coordinator"

@wileywebs @SuitablePolitic It’s an exchange, a betting market. They don’t place odds.

@SuitablePolitic Kalshi should have been placing odds weeks ago... what regime falls first, Iran or Cuba?

At this point, Cuba might be a US vassal state before we're finished bombing the bejeezus out of Iran

@bearmccreary @TheCinesthetic The first movie I thought of. Haven’t seen it since it came out in 2001 so might have to revisit.

@TheCinesthetic Surprised no one’s mentioned “A.I.” (Though over the years I’ve come to love the final sequence, having done a complete 180 on it.)

Which movie would be 10x better if it ended 5 minutes earlier?

@damonwigley @TheCinesthetic The first movie I thought about too

@TheCinesthetic I’ve said this before. Artificial Intelligence. Stop when he’s at the bottom of the ocean with mum.

@TheCinesthetic A. I. Artificial Intelligence (2001) had the opportunity of a better ending about 25 minutes from the actual end.

@blackroomsec Your initial post seemed to be more about him being ungrateful and a snowflake (don’t want to work on Windows which is 98% etc), than a prick. Sidenote: backend dev world is 97% linux so it’s like if you were handed a linux machine to navigate your 98% Windows world.

@blackroomsec Tell me you’re not a software developer without telling me … Windows, esp. 11, is absolutely a legit reason to not accept a job, if employed (But perhaps make up a different reason 🙂). Mac costs <0.5% of a salary more than a PC over it’s LC, but shoot yourself in the foot

Yeah, the org dodged a bullet with this one. I know it's been really popular for the younger generations to think it's cool to go around spewing their personal opinions at work but Corporate America has not changed in any way just because you happen to be alive. No one wants to hear your opinion, unless they ask for it. Which means you absolutely should not give it unless you are asked.🙄 And, if you are being given a standard issue laptop and aren't in any way responsible for the decisions that go behind purchasing those laptops then that's a good bet that nobody at work cares about your opinion because it doesn't matter and you're not that important in that particular org's food chain. And that's really the crux of it right? People like this thinking that they are more important then everybody else. That the rules don't apply to them. The IT staff isn't lazy. HR is not there to serve you but the company. Check your attitude and arrogance at the door. I would especially not be giving anyone an attitude in today's job climate because that's just insane. You're lucky you even GOT a job offer, let alone an actual job. READ THE ROOM,KID, SIT ALL THE WAY DOWN AND SHUT ALL THE WAY UP. As far as Windows is concerned it holds over 95% of the market share of all computers on Earth. 10 times out of 10 the computers are going to be Windows whether you personally agree with that or not. No one is going to change to Linux or a Mac for you. Macs are also very expensive computers and the org isn't going to buy 5,000 of them because of that. It's a budgetary decision and a sane one. Try to be a little self aware and ask yourself why all of these organizations aren't putting Macs on every desk and maybe consider that a lot of other people smarter than you, older than you and who have been working longer than you, have run the numbers and realized it just doesn't pay in the long run. That doesn't mean that the Mac is a bad computer. It isn't. It's a great computer. But it's really expensive. It would be really great if every organization I ever worked for would serve me lobster everyday but the reality is they're not going to do that because it's an expensive lunch. And even at the highest levels I got a ham sandwich if I was lucky. The only reason that I was going out to expensive dinners every week with my boss in my last role is because he was personally paying for it. You're also supposed to be putting your best foot forward and not embarrassing yourself with your own ignorance. So in closing check yourself when you get a job and stop thinking that the world revolves around you because it doesn't.

@xydotdot Well said.

How the fuck is CT grading this response on tone instead of product judgment? Thinking the issue is that a warning appeared, that a user checked a box, or that the trade could technically be completed, is stupid. The issue is that a leading interface in DeFi allowed a $50M order to move through a flow where catastrophic execution was an entirely predictable outcome. Once you know the order size, know the available liquidity, know the expected slippage, and know the probable output degradation, responsibility shifts to the system design itself. At that point, hiding behind user consent is weak as fuck. Consent inside a badly designed decision environment does not suddenly become good product architecture. Imagine using the same checkbox for acceptable slippage on a normal trade and on a trade that can lose $50M.... What they are doing, through lack of vision and lack of standards, is pushing liability downstream. What makes this worse is that the solution is obvious. Extreme order sizes should trigger a different class of interface behavior because they belong to a different class of risk. Hard execution thresholds, delayed confirmations, forced acknowledgment of minimum output in large font, segmented execution paths, deeper routing logic, stronger friction as size detaches from liquidity, and escalation rules for absurd trades. None of this requires a research breakthrough. It requires teams to stop acting like legality at the transaction layer is enough to claim integrity at the product layer. Aave has enough stature, enough resources, and enough industry visibility to know this. So when one of the flagship names in crypto answers an event like this with “the warning was shown and the system worked as intended,” what it really communicates is something much uglier: the mindset of too many crypto founders is complacent as fuck, and that is exactly why the industry still struggles to earn the trust it keeps claiming it wants.

@MartinPilgrim1 Imagine getting one of those in your car’s browser 😄

@Awk20000 -1:25 is pure gold 🤣🤣🤣

Asmongold shouts out Elon Musk for saving free speech & shifting the timeline in buying Twitter(X) “Buying Twitter was crack in the dam..all platforms were censored..the guy saved freedom of speech..shifted the timeline..as soon as that happened, every other platform changed..I will always respect Elon for that..anyone who doesn’t is short sighted & naive” “If I did my streams the way I did right now in 2021, I would be completely banned in 1 day”

@Polymarket Is there a world where anyone would accept more than 10-20% loss on a swap? This shouldn’t even be made possible no matter how many warnings are shown.

JUST IN: Crypto trader turns $50 million into $35k in a single swap after ignoring multiple slippage warnings.

@InternetH0F Ah.. a hero in his own mind. Probably thought when he was kicked that it was only him, but in reality it was still all being kicked 😆

careful, he's a hero

@qrbonichol @InternetH0F Haha a hero in his own mind 😆

@InternetH0F He was getting kicked and thinking that no one else got kicked with him 😂

@Dubracca @InternetH0F This.

Those are two different commands. /kickall is a command, if your name was John and an admin typed /John that would do absolutely nothing. /kick or /kickplayer John is the command. So to kick kickall "only" the admin would have to type /kick kickall. If he types /kickall it doesnt matter what your name is youre all getting kicked.

@stanger_aidan @SocraticScribe Sound like he says ”Mach point five” in the beginning. So half the speed of sound

@SocraticScribe Would it have any benefit for subsonic flights?

Plasma strips on wings cut drag 74% & viscous drag 62-80% with 1100% power savings (more speed = more gain). No need to cover whole plane just spot them smartly. Hypersonic flight tests (Mach 3-8) coming 2027 Ex: (NY→London in 90 min) without exotic engines.36hr+ drone patrol

@SteveWehrenberg @US_OGA Oil is a global market, not just US. And it’s not so much about Iran’s production. UAE, Kuwait and Iraq is also affected. Honestly a bit surprised it blew over this quick.

@US_OGA Thank you US Shale producers. Amazing it took everyone this long to see the meaningless lack of Iran production/ that by the way wasn’t supposed to be on the market in the first place. That said we need oil in mid $70’s to keep production high.

The Garden Gnome tried to dunk on us this morning but markets and reality weighed in by the day's end. Proving once again, you must be this tall to drive in our lane...

@Int_bitter @FredrikAlmer 10 x hävstång betyder att om oljan går upp 1% så går dina bull upp 10%. Går oljan ner >10% som idag så blir det inget kvar. I princip alla bull med hävstång 7 eller mer blev värdelösa idag.

@FredrikAlmer Hur funkar en bull, dina 2k kan bli 0kr värda? Eller kan du förlora mer än 2k?

Sjukaste resan jag gjort i något papper. Över 10.000% på en månad.

@theNyx__ @1ssve I’ve always felt that thanking for something beforehand is a tiny bit condescending.

@1ssve For clarity, my name is spelled as: [Your Name]. Thank you for updating it.

How do you professionally say “please spell my name correctly in an email” in corporate?
