How did he see the possibilities of this decades before we got here?
Been reading about historical figures lately. It’s fascinating to study the minds, ideas, and decisions of people who helped shape the world we live in today.

I gave the TestDrive Car a flying-car upgrade with @Kling_ai The result starts with the little car on the street, lifts it into the air, then follows it flying between skyscrapers. The camera movement and lighting give it the feel of a miniature car commercial. What I liked most was how Kling turned a static mascot into a moving scene with a clear sequence of actions. The flight feels cinematic, even if the physics lean more toward playful sci-fi than realism. I’d like to push the motion further and see how much control I can get over more complex actions. A fun way to bring a character to life.

I tried using @OpenBot_ to build a simple Bittensor subnet research checklist. The setup was straightforward enough, but when I sent the task, I hit this error: “Authentication required: provider authentication required.” My internet connection was working, so this wasn't the connection issue I initially suspected. I couldn't complete the task, which makes the provider setup an important part of the experience. I'd like to see clearer guidance on which models work without authentication and how to connect them. The agent workflow looks promising, but I couldn't properly evaluate the output because I got stuck before execution.

There’s a guy at my workspace whose ringtone is the same as my alarm. this man gets called every hour and never picks up. every time it rings, i get flashbacks. At this point, the universe is deliberately traumatising me.

AI models can be confidently wrong, and that’s a problem when real money is on the line. Imagine an insurance AI assessing a car damage claim. If a subtly altered image tricks the model, a fraudulent claim could slip through. @perturbaix, Bittensor Subnet 26, is built to find these weaknesses before attackers exploit them. Miners discover inputs that fool image models, while validators verify the attacks. Image-model testing is live today, with text, LLM and multimodal attacks on the roadmap. But how do you find a weakness before it becomes a costly mistake? That’s the story behind THE WITNESS. 🎬 Step into the investigation. See how Perturb fights AI with AI. @perturbaix #PerturbVideo > Angle 0

An office called for IT support, and my supervisor sent me over. Their computer connected to Wi-Fi but couldn't access the internet. After troubleshooting, I found the network wasn't recognising the device as authorised. Fixed the configuration and got them back online. 😂
My IT wasn't exactly what I expected, but I can't lie, it's been worth it so far.

What’s the secret behind people who use light mode? I asked people at my workplace if their eyes hurt, and they said no. Does that mean the rest of us have a lower light tolerance or some form of photophobia?
switched my pc to light mode yesterday, i dont think im going back to dark mode again🥹

Millions of people watch football every week, and argue about what happens next. Will this team score? Will they hold on? Prediction markets are built for exactly that, but they live on trading sites, far from the fans. Touchline puts the market inside the match room 🧵

On Oct 8, a program that Jupiter v6 calls was redeployed. No announcement, no warning. My monitor caught it about a second after the block and named the key that signed it. Meet Vortex Sentinel: live incident detection for Solana programs 🧵

Last week, I went to a café and overheard a lady talking about NFTs. She said you could “pull your money back out” of an NFT. I didn't get it, so I moved over, told her I build in the space, and asked her to explain. She said it gives you access. Not something you flip.

Energy is becoming one of the constraints behind AI compute. But the problem isn’t always a lack of energy. Sometimes it’s energy in the wrong place, at the wrong time, or without an efficient way to turn it into something valuable. @green_compute_ is approaching this differently through Bittensor Subnet 110. The idea is simple: Excess clean energy can power GPUs → GPUs provide real compute → commercial demand pays for that compute → more demand creates a reason to deploy more infrastructure. That creates an interesting flywheel. Instead of treating energy, compute and demand as separate markets, SN110 is trying to connect them through one incentive system. The recent ~$7M in permanent GPU deployments is interesting for that reason. The bigger question is how much compute this model can keep pulling into Bittensor as real demand grows.

Really good to see someone I look up to pushing the privacy conversation forward. Rooting for @gloamtrade
My First Interview 😅 Everything you do onchain is public by default. Your trades, your balances, your whole history sitting there for anyone to read and this has caused a lot of problems onchain overtime. You would never use a bank that worked like that. Robinhood Chain is bringing real stocks onchain now, Tempo is building the stablecoin chain but there’s no privacy stack for the average crypto holder today so this matters way more than it used to. That is the reason I am building @gloamtrade and I believe privacy is going to be the next big thing. 🎥: @kryptdou_ @3rdvariation

in a stanford study, developers using ai assistants wrote less secure code, while becoming more confident in their security. your use of ai shapes what it infers. ai should be used as an instrument, not a pilot. i just published a research paper on this: zenodo.org/records/23153224

Bittensor is getting harder to navigate. There are hundreds of subnets, each with different narratives, performance and opportunities. @CrucibleLabs makes that easier to explore from the wallet itself. You can: > browse subnets by category > see top subnets by emission > track gainers and losers > view subnet-level performance > swap TAO and subnet tokens > stake and manage positions So instead of switching between different tools to understand what’s happening across Bittensor, you can explore the network from one place. It’s less like a wallet for Bittensor and more like a dashboard for navigating it
