No. We have only one problem. The problem is: our billionaires are n—ers. They may be rich. But they’re n—er rich. The nature and function of their wealth is profoundly negrous. You can probably name exceptions. I can too. But in every way, the exceptions prove the rule.

I'm sure this guy is great at both in-person interactions and empathy. Definitely goes into his processes outside of being an edgelord on the internet to score some extra points.

"Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they should.". Great quote / movie - and also a reflection on why STEM people should have a well-rounded humanities education / why a humanities education is just as important.

Because we’re going to get a lot of dumb politicized takes over the next 24-48 hours instead waiting for more information-. I’ll just say that this chud archetype is always concerned about the NYPD losing its coveted precog mutant program as part of the hypothetical budget cuts.

This is already happening in my mom’s college class. I read their online responses - it’s obviously AI generated but some weird typos mixed into it. I wonder if they prompted it or actually did it themselves.

How long before people intentionally put in typos to make sure people believe an LLM didn’t write a thing?.

The importance of open standards and EIP-4361: . > Base Accounts build on those standards so you can reuse any SIWE tooling – while still benefiting from passkeys, session keys, and smart-wallet security. Thanks @WilsonCusack and team for using the spec.

Perhaps ecosystems shouldn't spend nearly a nine-figure amount on retroactive funding, but instead direct it toward results-driven initiatives.

The correct response to this situation is to question the ethics involved in screwing over employees in this form of acquisition scenario, instead of posting this snark. Not everyone can be a founder. Hope that helps.

The funniest part about all this is that this content-run will likely end in some shallow apology for something stupid and a return to regularly scheduled programming in about a week or so.
