Holy shit...
A vulnerability (worse_query) affecting iOS 26.7.1, 27.0.1, and 27.2 allows malicious apps to read local files from other apps, putting seed phrases, private keys, and login credentials at risk across the entire ecosystem. This is an iOS-level issue, not unique to Binance. Immediate Action Required: - Delete any apps installed from untrusted sources (such as sideloaded or manually signed IPAs). - Update iOS and all apps to the latest official versions. - If you suspect a breach, transfer funds to a new wallet created on a clean device and reset all active login sessions. Never install unauthorized packages, and keep your software up to date.

Nvidia - Jensen scandal TL;DR - China tried to get Jensen - US got to know, used him to mislead China - Jensen's family know, of course - China got to know Jensen was US asset - Waited and did a hit job using its US media assets - Timing exactly when Dems got control of congress - Idea is to punish Jensen, hit Nvidia, and US AI market - To use this to regulate US AI and derail AI progress - Jensen will be fine. Nvidia will be fine - Trump admin and US intel will take care if needed
Here's my conspiracy theory on the whole Nvidia-Jensen scandal. US intel knows everything since long ago. They are not naive. They played China using Jensen. They allowed a certain category of chip smuggling. They allowed American AI companies to let go of their LLMs. They allowed distillation of top US models. They let China develop all the opensource models and release them thinking it will dilute US AI monopoly and hit US AI companies revenue. They kept Chinese companies busy in useless pursuits with weaker chips. But beyond Jensen talking in support of chip sales to China, and Nvidia exporting certain chips (fully monitored by the US), nothing much came out good for China in this operation. They realized this months ago. Their western short-selling hit-job firms (that they use to attack companies in other countries as part of unrestricted war) were talking about such scandals already. What's happening now is a frustrated power and its agents in the US leaking half baked intel via GLISCO media to attack Jensen, Nvidia, and broader US-AI market. They want to hit Nvidia, trouble Jensen, and cause a wider US market crash affecting US-AI companies. So as to curtail their investments and their progress with AI. Just look at who leaked this report, and the media who are all creating stories on Jensen alleging something like he gave away state secrets. They all seem the usual GLISCO infiltrated. They regularly attack Trump, US-AI, and do hit jobs against US interests. They also regularly hit Modi, Adani, Ambani, Tata etc, that's a different story. So what's gonna happen? Some of their agents in the US are having good leverage now politically to investigate AI companies in the pretext of "aiding a foreign power." They timed this hit job perfectly and in earnest. From now, we will see Jensen troubled legally and more issues come out for AI companies in the US. There will be more hit jobs too on American entrepreneurs just like they try to hit Adani, Ambani, TATA in India as they work in strategic sectors for India. The aim is to affect the market cap of these US AI companies, their spending capacity, and bring more regulations to control what these US AI companies do. To prevent the US from getting ahead in AI. But in my view, these issues will be temporary. Nvidia and Jensen will come out of this fine. They have great backing from the Trump admin and the other DS that runs it. Whatever show may be put up in the US regarding Jensen and Nvidia will be just that - another show to mislead China thinking their assets are working for it. Nvidia may be hit temporarily, and pull all its AI customers and tech peers down, but it will rise up again. I can sense a failed hit job done in desperation very early. And this is one.

The #1 thing Apple could improve to give me a better experience on my devices would be faster Face ID. The Duo has made me conscious that Face ID is slow af when you are doing it non-stop. (I have apps locked down in case I get robbed and I have to give them the PIN)

BREAKING: France just voted to tax the internet. French lawmakers approved a tax of €0.055 (5.5 cents) for every gigabyte of data that companies like Netflix and YouTube send to French users. It’s a tax on the companies, not users directly, but the cost could get passed on to subscribers. The vote was 11 to 10, with only 35 of 577 lawmakers present. Supporters say it could raise up to €10 billion a year. The French government opposed it, warning it would hit smaller French companies hardest; VLC says it would cost it over €1 million a year.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
This amendment to France's 2027 budget bill was narrowly adopted 11-10 in the National Assembly (35 voters present) but is not yet law, faces government opposition, and must still clear further Assembly/Senate steps. assemblee-nationale.fr/dyn/17/comptes… assemblee-nationale.fr/dyn/17/amendem… capital.fr/economie-polit… stephanelarue.com/taxe-au-gigaoc…

Marco Rubio finding out he’s the new CEO of Intel
BREAKING: Intel stock, $INTC, crashes over -22% after reporting weaker than expected earnings. Intel blamed weak earnings on "softness in the PC market."

Jesus Christ, picked up my iPhone Duo this morning in Colombia, lady opens the box to confirm it’s all there which they do in Colombia, proceeds to put it back in the box wrong, then presses down with force on the box to try to close it. If my Duo has issues, we know why. 🤡😂🤦‍♂️

ATTACKERS REPORTEDLY EXPLOITED ETHEREUM’S EIP-7702 TO DRAIN BINANCE WALLETS On-chain analysis suggests attackers obtained signed authorizations allowing them to install malicious code on Binance-linked wallets without directly accessing their private keys. The attackers then used a function called “sweep” to transfer ETH and dozens of tokens into an attacker-controlled wallet. The same delegated permissions were reportedly used to move another $780 million in USDC from a separate Binance hot wallet. The attacker’s transaction relayer was funded through Tornado Cash, while nearly 195,460 ETH was subsequently transferred to a newly created wallet. How the attackers obtained the authorizations remains unknown. Binance says user funds are safe and is investigating.
ok safe to say binance is pwned The biggest assets were approximately: • 1.615B USDT • 62.6M RLUSD • 29,934 wBETH • 11,372 XAUt • 6.19M UNI • 198.4M ENA • 7.175T PEPE • 27.8M USD1 • 2.26M LINK • 127,853 AAVE about $2.5B at the explorer’s prices. 1. The attacker deployed a delegate contract, 0x63e842b0...73e9c6fAe, from the relayer at 15:59 UTC. 2. About four hours later, the relayer submitted an EIP-7702 authorization transaction That installed the malicious 7702 delegate code on Binance 14. 3. The relayer then made a call to Binance 14, executing the delegate code, and transferring Binance 14’s ETH and token balances. 4. The calldata is labeled sweep(address, address[]). The second argument is a list of recognizable token-contract addresses plus the zero-address (eth). 5. The same relayer later used the same delegate to move 780M USDC from Binance Hot Wallet 34 into the same pool • The relayer 0x7C... was funded by three Tornado Cash 0.1 ETH withdrawals over the prior two days. • The same pool also received 28,005.6 ETH from Binance 16 24 seconds after the main sweep. • The pool then forwarded 195,460 ETH to a fresh, unlabeled EOA • That EOA has only one transaction and currently holds the 195,460 ETH. What's a bit unclear is why the relayer was needed in the first place. If they had the private keys to the Binance wallets, they could have just sent the assets out in an atomic bundle without needing a relayer at all. So it seems likely that they didn't have the private keys and instead just had the 7702 auth signatures, which must have been phished somehow. I think we can go ahead and assume DPRK.

🇻🇪 Interim president Delcy Rodriguez gave important announcements to the country today: ✅ NO ONE CAN'T BE DETAINED WITHOUT AN ARREST WARRANT, and the right to peaceful protest shall be guaranteed. ✅ The cases of all individuals who are deprived of their liberty or facing legal proceedings under the “hate law” must be reviewed, with the aim of terminating the criminal proceedings against them. ✅ Non-essential state-owned enterprises will be offered to the private sector or returned to their former owners, from whom they were taken through expropriation. ✅ All elections mandated by the Constitution will be held, overseen by a new National Electoral Council (CNE) and with guarantees for all political actors. ✅ Anyone wishing to return to Venezuela may do so with full guarantees and their documentation; they will be welcomed back with open arms.

I keep telling this to every developer I know if you run npm install on your bare macbook in 2026 you are waiting to be pwned you need to develop inside a container one bad vscode extension, one poisoned crate, and every credential on your machine is gone. that's not even paranoia anymore, it's just the baseline apple/container spins up light linux vms on apple silicon so I’ve updated my agent skill remote VMs setup and management to support local ones use /remote-computer, create a local apple container for multi-language development it sizes the VM to your CPU/RAM/disk, sets up key-only SSH on a host-only IP, no published ports, no home dir mount, and ports your git identity and commit signing. also works with AWS and GCP VMs

A friend in Venezuela wrote me tonight almost crying because her iPhone suddenly “stopped working” and she “couldn’t do anything anymore” and she needed a new phone… Turns out she is on iOS 18 still and never updated WhatsApp. An app update in the App Store fixed it all. 😂

What made it even more hilarious is that she was trying to say the issue was because of the iOS 27 update that she didn’t even have space to download lol. This is your average 20s something female iPhone user in South America.

I really don’t understand how people can literally be glued to their device for years, and also depend on it for their business, and not take the time to learn or understand other basic things about the device. But I am obviously a rational thinker… 😂

Is anyone else getting non-stop 2fa reset SMS from random companies all day long now? I’ve gotten over 25 of them today from 3 different companies. I’m about ready to delete my accounts with these companies so the SMS stop. 🇺🇸

Is the MacBook Pro with PROLED XDR going to be worth the $400 difference? That's really the question. The reduced weight seems nice. The configuration I want is around $5500 so it's almost as if another $400 doesn't even matter at that point...

I finally had a need for Xcode and getting it setup on my Mac Mini for remote vibe coding, with fully automated builds shipped to TestFlight via Hermes over Discord. I feel so l33t like @drbarnard now. Now to build some iPhone Duo apps!
