@YacineSibous I'm hiring engineers in NYC please send them my way asap!

Well, that was a crazy turn of events. Three weeks ago, I thought Parker was going to be acquired in a deal worth nearly $90M. Yesterday, we filed for Chapter 7. I spent most of my twenties building Parker. We went from an idea in YC to processing over $1B in annualized volume, pioneered products that became standard across fintech, and built something I believed could last for decades. And now it’s over. I know there’s going to be speculation about why Parker failed, but a lot of what’s being said online is simply not accurate. Over the last few years, we faced leadership turnover, a much tougher market, slowing growth, and the realities of trying to scale a venture-backed business after momentum fades. Earlier this year, we decided the best path forward was to pursue a sale of the business. We ran a process and spent months working toward a potential acquisition that ultimately did not close. After that, things moved quickly. The hardest part is the impact on the people involved: •Customers dealing with disruption •Employees losing jobs they worked hard for •Investors who believed in us losing money What I am proud of is the team. Parker was built by incredibly talented people who deserved a better outcome than this. Helping them land somewhere great is my top priority right now. If you’re hiring operators, engineers, designers, finance, credit, or growth talent, please reach out. To everyone who believed in Parker over the years: thank you.

@0x_Abdul Next level

imagine you're an early stage employee at openai or anthropic with a fat equity payout coming at IPO this year you've already scrolled zillow to buy a house for your parents, and bookmarked a sportscar for yourself things are great. but there's one worry: what if markets turn before IPO and your stock actually tanks on day one then you hear about a revolutionary new pre-IPO product on hyperliquid you can hedge by shorting a synthetic version of your equity and locking in a sale price before the actual IPO sounds too good to be true but you do your research and convince yourself it's a great idea. it's a permissionless product, so there's no way you can get caught insider trading the trade is simple: short your company's stock in the pre-IPO perp to lock in a sale price now. when the IPO actually happens, close your short and sell the real stock to settle the trade only catch: you need to put up a lot of margin to open the short safely so you take out a 7 fig bank loan and move it through three crypto exchanges to cover your tracks you open the short, officially "lock in" your sale proceeds, and voila.. you just outsmarted and frontran 99% of your coworkers things are great. now all you need is patience until IPO day, when you can close the trade the price actually starts dropping in the weeks leading up to IPO all the more validation that you made the smart move. you can only feel bad for your coworkers who'll get a worse selling price at IPO than you things are going great and you start sketching out your post-IPO retirement phase 5 days before the IPO, you wake up and can't seem to find your position on hyperliquid weird.. maybe it's a UI bug? you check the hyperliquid discord for support. the channels are buzzing with people complaining about a scam wick on a pre-IPO market you ask, naively, what happened to your short and where the margin went that's when someone drops a news article on you: "at 4am EST today, a wallet started aggressively market buying pre-IPO stock on hyperliquid, pumping its price by 271% in 38 minutes and liquidated every short position on the market. the wallet walked away with $47m in profits from liquidating shorts" what? your short got closed? but where did the margin go? that can't be true. you did your research. you asked opus 4.7 to plan this trade out for a hypothetical scenario. this has to be a fake headline you open twitter. that's all anyone is talking about. everyone mocking the people who shorted the pre-IPO stock confused about what this means for you, you start frantically googling: "wtf is a scam wick?" "what is a liquidation in perps?" "how can i get my money back after getting liquidated on hyperliquid?" then it hits. you've lost the entire loan by getting liquidated. the same loan you were going to repay with your IPO sale proceeds and now the stock price is down and your pre-IPO short is liquidated. selling all your real equity at IPO won't even cover what you owe the bank from a 7 figure payday at IPO to a 7 figure debt situation. it took you years to pay off your student loan. this hole is orders of magnitude deeper you call in sick to work. tell your gf there's a family emergency at home and you need to be back home for a week you can only see one way out of this mess

Anthropic tried to kill 8,100 GitHub repos. Then this happened > They filed a DMCA. GitHub nuked the entire network within hours. Developers got notices for forks of Anthropic's OWN public repo - one guy's fork had zero leaked code. > Boris Cherny, head of Claude Code, had to go on X personally: "This was not intentional. Should be better now." > Meanwhile Sigrid Jin - who used 25 billion Claude Code tokens last year - woke up at 4AM and rewrote the entire thing in Python before sunrise. DMCA can't touch a clean-room rewrite. > It hit 50K stars in 2 hours. Fastest repo in GitHub history. > Today claw-code officially launched as an independent project with a formal press release. And the Rust port merged today - what started as a panic rewrite now ships release 0.1.0. > 140K stars. 102K forks. More than Anthropic's own repo. > 512,000 lines are in the wild forever. What started as Anthropic's biggest embarrassment just became their most dangerous competitor. You cannot make this up.

@eurofounder Lmao

My daughter got a job offer from Tesla "Papa, it's $250k a year and I'll work on autonomous driving!" I sighed "You have only a bachelor's degree. You are not qualified to work on anything" She started showing me the offer letter I closed the laptop "You will do your masters. Then a traineeship at a respectable German company. Then we can talk" "But dad, my friend moved to the US with just a bachelor's and already makes over $300k..." "And does your friend have a recognised European postgraduate qualification?" She didn't answer Case closed In Europe we educate first and work later That's why our companies are built to last

Absolutely incredible things happening with gen ai these days

@KimDotcom Bro I'm not so sure that after capturing maduro it's the right time to post this sorta stuff ... They might take u just to ask u questions no matter where u at

Breaking Palantir was allegedly hacked. An AI agent was used to gain super-user access and here”s what the hackers allegedly found: Peter Thiel and Alex Karp commit mass surveillance of world leaders and titans of industry on a massive scale. They have thousands of hours of transcribed and searchable conversations of Donald Trump, JD Vance and Elon Musk. They have backdoored the devices, cars and jets of world leaders and accumulated the biggest archive of blackmail material. Palantir is creating nuclear and bio weapon capabilities for Ukraine and is working closely with the CIA to defeat Russia. They believe they are one year away. They plan to achieve this by keeping Russia busy with meaningless peace negotiations. Palantir is responsible of the majority of Palestinian deaths in Gaza. They have developed the AI targeting for Israel. Palantir is an arm of the CIA and all data from international clients is copied into a CIA spy cloud. Palantir has become the most dangerous company in the world. If you work there you have the right to know that this is what Palentir AI is used for, without your knowledge. The Palentir data the hackers allegedly gathered will be given to Russia and/or China. I was chosen as a trusted partner for this publication. I’m not involved in the Palentir hack and I don’t know the hackers. But I do know that the hack happened.

@aakashgupta Heads will roll for sure

The real story here is worse than a fumble. It’s a three-step own goal. January 9: Anthropic locks Claude Code OAuth tokens, killing every third-party tool that built on Claude subscriptions. OpenClaw, which recommended Claude Opus 4.5 as its default model, wakes up to a broken integration. No warning. No partner outreach. January 27: Anthropic’s legal team sends the cease-and-desist over “Clawdbot” sounding too similar to “Claude.” Steinberger complies at 5 AM on a Discord call. During the 10-second window where he releases the old GitHub and X handles, crypto scammers hijack both accounts and run a $16M pump-and-dump scheme. The chaos reflects on the entire Claude ecosystem. February 15: Steinberger announces he’s joining OpenAI. So Anthropic had the fastest-growing open source project in AI history (145K+ GitHub stars, 2 million visitors in a single week), built by a guy who sold his last company for ~€100M, whose tool literally recommended Claude as the default model to millions of new users. Their response was to cut off his API access and send lawyers. Steinberger spent last week in San Francisco meeting with every major lab. He explicitly said he could have built OpenClaw into a massive company but chose OpenAI because he wanted “the fastest way to bring this to everyone.” Meanwhile OpenClaw has already spread to China, with Baidu planning direct integration into its main app. This is a project that was essentially a free distribution channel for Claude. Millions of developers installing a tool that defaults to your model. The growth marketing team at Anthropic should have been sending gift baskets, not legal notices. Sam Altman just got handed an open-source agent framework with global distribution and a brilliant founder, because Anthropic’s legal department moved faster than their partnerships team.

there are only 2 jobs left in this economy: – Idea Guy ($1M / yr) – Execution Guy ($500k / yr)

Someone on our $50 plan just ran us a $5,760 API bill

@elonmusk This will be the first legal battle that leverages the cutting edge of AI

Can’t wait to start the trial. The discovery and testimony will blow your mind.

@SumitM_X Signature

A user edits the payload of their JWT , changes his role to Admin and sends it to access a protected API. How does your system detect the tampering, which JWT part is responsible, and what happens during authentication and authorization when the token is invalid?

Congratulations, President Trump! This is a win for the world and a clear message to evil dictators everywhere.

@t_xu Idk looks sorta true based on how much food costs in your platform.

Holy fucking shit is right! This is not DoorDash, and I would fire anyone who promoted or tolerated the kind of culture described in this Reddit post. There’s so much wrong with this post. - Dashers are not “human assets.” - Having a metric like a "Desperation Score” is an abomination. - We’ve never had a “Driver Benefit Fee”. - Why would you charge for faster delivery but not make it faster?? We’re not perfect by *any* stretch of the imagination, but we work every day to make our platform better for everyone who comes to it. What’s described here is appalling, and if true, whoever is operating in this manner should be ashamed.

If Pablo escobar was from MN he would not have sold a single gram of cocaine

@DePINConnection @Cernovich He didnt know

@Cernovich Didn’t you hear? Someone cut through the back wall from the interior of the building and stole all of those documents.

Daycares, by law, are supposed to keep detailed paper trails. Sign in and sing out. Head counts. Would take half an hour to debunk Nick Shirley’s reporting. You’d show the paperwork to CBS or NPR and then the ring camera footage. Notice this hasn’t been done. For that reason.

@ZeekArkham Head on over to town and start recording... dont worry about getting hired... @elonmusk and tiktok will take care of the pay

Yeah… so, as a cop who has investigated literally hundreds of burglaries over a 20 year career, I can tell you that no burglar has ever stopped and stolen enrollment paperwork. Let me guess… the cameras in the facility magically broke and stopped recording while the burglary was taking place. If I worked for Minneapolis PD, it wouldn’t even take me 48 hours to debunk all of this.

The Somali scams have been happening for at least a decade and got bigger and more brazen every year when the authorities like Traitor Tim Walz refused to do anything

This is not a joke, they actually want to kill me In all seriousness please include me in your prayers 🙏🏼
