“Your next assignment is to seduce the CEO of one of America’s largest tech companies” “Wow, that sounds really challenging. I’ll need to use every skill I have” “Not really. Just be moderately attractive and not unpleasant to be around. That’s literally all it takes”
It’s so funny that China is just spymogging us into irrelevancy because they learned that all you had to do was teach mid choid bitches a few party tricks and how to not act like a bitch and it outperforms western women by an order of magnitude & I don’t even like Asian women.

How cultures sound on a violin. It's fascinating how different intervals can instantly evoke a whole culture. Julia Kim plays 5 scales 🎻 Egyptian, Celtic, Chinese, Japanese, Sundanese.

didn't have building an AI news network on my 2026 bingo card, let alone getting it on actual TVs! 6 weeks after going live, PNN channel has officially been accepted to @amazonfiretv. you can now say "Alexa, open Pixel News Network" on Fire TV. live 24/7. completely free. 📺

Still thinking about how Michelangelo said excellent people like to solitude-max because they don't want to "corrupt themselves with the vain conversation of idle persons and degrade their thoughts"

The most important endeavor
I’m struck by how many people don’t pay attention to the sky. It’s literally a pleasure to see the clouds, the stars, the sun, and the moon.

WINDOWS NYC // NEIGHBORHOOD 12 // A Cathode Blue Dream for Lady Liberty Owned by @Cryptobscure and architected by the incredible @deltasauce There are 20 NEIGHBORHOODS, each with the option to customize their window order. I love co-creation and wanted to create an opportunity for participation at a higher level for those wanting to take that leap. I knew people would have fun but I didn't realize how creative things would get. This concept exceeds my expectations. These two got together and saw more than a city grid. They saw a canvas, and from experience they knew how much can be done with a grid of what is essentially pixels. From the atomic level of WINDOWS, BUILDINGS emerge, and even bigger, these NEIGHBORHOODS, and they used this opportunity to embed more NYC iconography into the typology of this cross-section. This is really, really cool. I am so happy to see this and eager to see how the other 19 holders think about their own works, because I'm sure there are many more ideas that have never occured to me. Thank you both for the care and consideration and the patronage of my art. Cheers!

Under the Earned Settlement model set out before Parliament today, the right to live in the UK permanently will no longer be granted automatically after five years. Instead, it will be earned. Under the reforms: ➡️The standard route to settlement will double from five to 10 years ➡️ People who enter illegally, including by small boat, face a wait of up to 30 years to settle ➡️ Care workers who meet the visa requirements will retain a five-year route ➡️ Higher earners on more than £50,000, skilled public service workers and refugees arriving on safe and legal routes will be able to settle in five years ➡️ Migrants who claim benefits face a 20-year wait for settlement ➡️ Migrants with a criminal record will be prevented from settling in the UK ➡️ Migrants will be required to meet A-level standard English to settle in the UK

Steven: Drew's Age of Indiscernibility thesis holds that 2024 marked when AI content became indistinguishable from human work. Pre-2025 fine art NFTs (especially original, non-generative ones and tokenized photography with real-world provenance) are thus extremely scarce—they are among the few digital assets provably human-made and undilutable. A purist wave will prize them for authenticity as AI floods everything else.

5 ways to improve your OPSEC in a couple hours this weekend: - buy @Yubico’s Yubikeys to replace insecure 2FA - sign up for @optery to have your personal info removed from data broker sites (I also have a discount code for anyone who wants it) - set up a new Gmail that isn’t tied to your name or shared with anyone. Use this email for your banking, CEX accounts, password manager etc - get a virtual mailbox set up to receive packages and mail somewhere other than at home - set up a 2nd phone number just to have on accounts where you can’t get rid of SMS 2FA (like your Apple ID) Any one of these things will measurably improve your personal security and they all can get knocked out in a couple hours You could bookmark this and do one task each weekend through November and be in great shape. Don’t be overwhelmed, just get started!

what did you do today? oh, nothing... 😅 secondrealm.net/artwork guys, i wish we had AI when i was doing web dev in 2006. jfc, what you can accomplish in 8 hours today is absolutely fucking wild. anyway, i tore apart my art gallery, migrated it from Astro to Next.js, rebuilt the frontend, and rearchitected it as a standalone app that still lives seamlessly under my main website through path-based routing. then i overhauled the JSON, built a standardized metadata schema and artwork taxonomy (aka tags), and added the foundation for filtering and discovering art by theme, subject, style, medium, color, blockchain, etc. used 21 of my SuperRare artworks as the test collection. basically turned the simple gallery i created the other day into a data-driven art catalog with its own architecture and room to grow. 8 hours from start to deploy. what a fucking time to be alive.

🚨 $BUCKET JUST INTRODUCED SOMETHING THAT COULD CHANGE ITS ENTIRE ECOSYSTEM. @RealBucketShop has completed its FIRST EVER BUCKET FANTASY DRAFT! 🪣🔥 Imagine ESPN Fantasy Football, except instead of drafting NFL superstars, you’re drafting tokenized stocks like $NVDA, $AAPL, $GOOGL and $SPY. You build your roster, select your starters, bench underperformers, trade assets, and compete against friends based on REAL MARKET PERFORMANCE. BUT HERE’S WHERE THE GENIUS POTENTIALLY LIES. 🧠 Fantasy football monetizes competition. $BUCKET could potentially monetize that same competitive spirit through ONCHAIN ACTIVITY. Every draft entry, every trade, every swap represents an opportunity to generate transactions and potentially protocol revenue. And IF those fees feed into BUCKET’s existing stock-reward flywheel, more participation could mean MORE TOKENIZED STOCKS PURCHASED AND DISTRIBUTED TO HOLDERS. Think about that. A fantasy league where people compete for bragging rights while their activity potentially helps build real-world asset ownership for an entirely separate community of holders. THE GAME CREATES ENGAGEMENT. ENGAGEMENT CREATES ACTIVITY. ACTIVITY CAN CREATE FEES. AND FEES CAN CREATE OWNERSHIP. This is why I’ve repeatedly said that @RealBucketShop has the potential to become a leading STOCK DIVIDEND LAYER on @RobinhoodCrypto. The most powerful financial ecosystems aren’t built around a single product. They’re built around interconnected products that give people reasons to KEEP COMING BACK. $BUCKET isn’t merely exploring another game. It’s exploring another doorway into its ecosystem. And if the fees flow back into its stock distribution engine, the implications for long-term holders could be substantial. WEALTH ISN’T ONLY ABOUT WHAT YOU OWN. SOMETIMES IT’S ABOUT OWNING A PIECE OF THE MACHINES THAT EVERYONE ELSE WANTS TO USE. 🪣📈 NFA. The fee-sharing integration still needs confirmation.

So I recently badgered my cinematographer @steveyedlin into making my ideal iPhone still camera app. It shoots RAW, bypasses the iPhone's look processing and instead uses the same image processing we use on our movies. apps.apple.com/app/apple-sto…
