My #SundayShare is a 1 v 1 defending practice.... Coaching points: • Movement/positioning: first action - pressure: pressing the ball, slowing down upon approach; eyes forward facing play. • Body position: balls of feet, side on, low, ready to change direction. • Patience: delaying down the attack; narrowing attacking options? Decision-making: when to step in (tackle), when to back off, what side to show the attacker? · Confidence: in the tackle/contact. Progression: 2 v 2. One defender starts behind the attackers and is not active until an attacker takes first touch. Great session on Friday. That's a wrap of Week 5 in the U11 syllabus. #SundayShare The Sporting Resource #1v1show more

Mesh Concept | Universal Answer Any hash. Any defense.... Call it anywhere. Formations, shifts, and motions change the picture. The QB progression never changes. Pre-Snap: Alert Okie (6-step speed out) Progression 1 - Rail 2 - Low Mesh 3 - OTB 4 - High Mesh Rules & Landmarks Rail – Aim heels of #1 → bottom numbers. Low Mesh – Align +4–5 from OT. Run at 4 yards. Set the mesh and stay on the move. High Mesh – Align +4 from OT. Run at 5 yards. Set depth and read grass under LBs. OTB – Push to 10 yards over the ball. Do not shut it down early. OL Protection – 5-Man Scat RB releases on Rail and must run off the coverage if the ball isn’t thrown immediately. Creates traffic vs man. Horizontal stretch vs zone. Gets RB and playmakers involved in space. Mesh Rail is the base. Variations change the picture, not the progression. Compliment play is Mesh Pivot. Are you teaching Mesh as a coverage answer…or as a progression the QB can trust every snap?show more

The hardest of decisions has been made. Tomorrow afternoon,... our vet, who has been with us every step of this journey, will come to our home and help Ralph cross. Despite eating copious amounts of food, he lost 500kg in 3 weeks, down from 3kg to 2.5kg. His temperature is too low as he is too weak to regulate his body and he is showing signs of muscle weakness. Although no indicator for pain (we checked, twice), he is literally withering away and prolonging this will be completely and utterly for us, not for him and you all know by now, we would never, ever do that to our kids. He is home, on top of our warm bed and he will be so spoiled the next 24 hours. He will be hugged so much and will be told we love him until the moment he slips away in our arms Simon and I are devastated this is happening a 3rd time this year and this has been my fear for many, many years. Thank you all for being there for us and keep Ralph in your thoughts tomorrow as he starts his journey over the rainbow bridge.show more

🚨Let's Talk About REAL Biblical Discernment vs. Emotional Manipulation... Laurie Cardoza-Moore wants to lecture us about "biblical foundations" while conveniently ignoring some very basic biblical principles. So let me break this down the way apparently NO ONE else will: FIRST - Let's address the elephant in the room: This is the same woman who sent threatening texts to Charlie Kirk before his tragic death. And now she's positioning herself as the arbiter of Christian faithfulness? The audacity is truly breathtaking. SECOND - On "Biblical Foundations": You know what the Bible ACTUALLY says? "Thou shalt not bear false witness." Yet she accuses anyone who questions Israeli government policy of being "demonic" and full of "jew-hatred." Criticizing a GOVERNMENT is not the same as hating a PEOPLE. Israel is a nation-state with a government that makes policy decisions. The Jewish people are God's chosen people. These are two different things. And if you can't distinguish between them, YOU are the one with the identity crisis—not the Church. THIRD - The Covenant Confusion: Yes, God made an everlasting covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. But let's read what Jesus said in Matthew 23:37-38: "O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the one who kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to her... See! Your house is left to you desolate." The New Covenant established through Christ extends God's promise to ALL who believe—Jew AND Gentile (Galatians 3:28-29). To suggest that modern political support for every action of the Israeli government is a prerequisite for Christian faithfulness is theological malpractice. FOURTH - "Anti-Semitism" As A Weapon: Notice the pattern: Anyone who asks questions = "anti-Semite." Anyone who wants accountability = "demonic." Anyone who reads the FULL counsel of Scripture = "heresy." This isn't about protecting Jewish people. This is about silencing dissent and critical thinking. And weaponizing the charge of anti-Semitism to shut down legitimate discourse is disgusting and diminishes ACTUAL anti-Semitism. FIFTH - The Missing Context: She wants you to share her videos and "defeat these anti-Semites" but won't address: 🔘Why she threatened Charlie Kirk? 🔘Why Tucker Carlson's journalism is "heresy"? 🔘Why asking questions about foreign policy is "jew-hatred"? 🔘Why Christians can't think critically about Middle East conflicts? FINALLY - What The Bible ACTUALLY Says: "Test all things; hold fast what is good" (1 Thessalonians 5:21) "The simple believes every word, but the prudent considers well his steps" (Proverbs 14:15) Real biblical faith doesn't require blind allegiance to any government—Israeli or American. It requires discernment, wisdom, and the courage to stand for truth even when it's uncomfortable. You want to talk about the "last days," Laurie? In the last days, Jesus warned about FALSE PROPHETS who would deceive many (Matthew 24:11). He warned about wolves in sheep's clothing (Matthew 7:15). And He commanded us to be wise as serpents and innocent as doves (Matthew 10:16). So here's MY call to the watchmen: WATCH. But watch with discernment. Watch with wisdom. And watch out for those who use fear, intimidation, and manipulation to control your theology. Charlie Kirk deserved better than threats. Christians deserve better than emotional manipulation disguised as biblical teaching. And the truth deserves better than to be buried under accusations of "anti-Semitism" every time someone asks a question. I stand with Candace Owens. I stand with facts over manipulation. I stand with the truth. And I will NOT be bullied into abandoning either. Share this if you believe Christians are called to think critically, love genuinely, and refuse to be manipulated by fear.show more

🚨🚨🚨 THIS $2 BILLION AIRCRAFT IS MORE DANGEROUS THAN... A NUCLEAR WEAPON → AND THE US JUST ACTIVATED IT 🚨🚨🚨 The B-2 Spirit. Inspired by nature's most efficient flyer → the Peregrine Falcon. Millions of years of evolution copied into $2 billion of engineering. Here's what nobody is telling you about what this plane is doing RIGHT NOW in Iran: → Step 1: It took off from Whiteman Air Force Base, Missouri → Step 2: It flew 6,000+ miles WITHOUT being detected by a single radar → Step 3: It entered Iranian airspace completely invisible → Step 4: It dropped the GBU-57 — a 30,000 POUND bunker buster bomb → Step 5: That bomb penetrated 200 FEET underground → Step 6: It destroyed Iran's Fordow nuclear facility — buried inside a MOUNTAIN → Step 7: No missile defense system on Earth saw it coming → Step 8: It flew home. Iran didn't know it was there until the explosions started Why this is MORE important than a nuclear weapon: A nuke destroys everything — cities, civilians, the country that launched it politically. It can NEVER be used without ending the world. The B-2 does the same job SURGICALLY. → It reaches ANY target on the planet within hours → It carries 40,000 lbs of bombs — enough to level a military base → It penetrates 200 feet underground — no bunker is safe → It's INVISIBLE — $400 billion worth of Russian and Chinese air defense systems can't find it → It can strike and return WITHOUT a single soldier touching the ground → Iran spent decades burying its nuclear facilities underground thinking they were safe They weren't. The B-2 Spirit is why Iran will never have a nuclear weapon. Not sanctions. Not diplomacy. Not treaties. A plane they can't see, carrying a bomb they can't stop, hitting a bunker they thought was untouchable. Nature perfected flight over millions of years. The US copied it, strapped 40,000 lbs of explosives to it, and made it invisible. That's not a plane. That's a message. And Iran just received it. 🚨🚨🚨show more

Texas A&M HC Mike Elko - Building Defensive IQ... for Winning Situational Football "It starts to me with you have to develop football 101 in your defense. You've got to take a step back & you've got to build some level of general football knowledge in your defensive unit. It's sometimes the things that can save you when you don't call the perfect defense/scheme. Down & Distance Understanding... 2nd & 7+ - We have won 1st down... The offense is now trying to get themselves back in favorable positions for 3rd down. Here the battle is for half the yardage. - Offensively you will see a lot of RPOs, Quick Game, Screen & Draw. This is not a down where you will see a lot of high risk types of offensive plays. - Defensively we play this down & distance like a 3rd down off 1/2 the yardage... (2nd & 8 is like 3rd & 4, 2nd & 14 is like 3rd & 7) 2nd & 4-6 - We have lost 1st down. Now we must make a play on 2nd down to try to re-create an advantage for 3rd down. Success on this down is similar to 1st & 10. We are looking to hold them to 3 or less. - This is a down where the offense usually sticks to their strengths. Again, they are looking for a low risk play that will keep the chains moving forward. - For us we call this D&D no different than 1st down. 2nd & 1-3 (Waste) - Thus for the offense is known as a waste down. This is a D&D where the offense is likely to take a deep shot because they are in a favorable position for 3rd down. - Offenses will try double moves & max protection shot plays a lot on this D&D - For us on defense, this is a big zone pressure down. Gives us a chance to create a negative play and regain the advantage on the sticks. Also closes the middle of the field to protect us on the shot plays.show more

6-Man Protection – X’s & O’s Diagram Style (Half-Slide... Example – most commonly taught by Bobby Acosta) Basic Alignment (Shotgun Example) Offense •LT – LG – C – RG – RT •RB aligned opposite slide call •4 receivers in route Defense (example) •4 Down DL •2 Linebackers (Mike + Will) 🔄 Step 1: Declare the Mike The QB or Center identifies the Mike linebacker. That sets: •The blocking count for the offensive line •The direction of the slide Example call: “Mike 52! Slide Right!” 🔁 Step 2: The Half-Slide Rules 👉 Slide Side (Right in this example) •RG → inside gap first •RT → next inside threat •C → helps play-side A-gap They are zone-protecting gaps, not specific defenders. 👉 Backside (Man Side) •LT → Man on defensive end •LG → Man on defensive tackle They block big-on-big. Step 3: Running Back Responsibility The RB: 1.Scans inside first opposite the slide 3.Picks up first linebacker or edge blitzer 4.If no threat → check release Coaching point often emphasized: “Inside-out, most dangerous first.” 📊 How It Handles Pressure ✅ Handles 4-man rush easily ✅ Handles 5-man pressure cleanly ⚠️ Versus 6-man pressure: QB must throw hot or adjust protection. 🎯 Why This Works •Strong interior wall •Backside edge secured •Flexible vs. common blitzes •Allows deeper route concepts To request for the OC Google Doc Workbook Drive.

F350 Rear Differential Service done right. Step by step... pure ASMR. ​If you want to keep your heavy-duty truck running smoothly, keeping up with your differential maintenance is non-negotiable. Whether you are dealing with a standard cover or a high-capacity unit, taking the time to properly clean, seal, and refill your rear diff will save you from major mechanical headaches down the road. ​Here is a comprehensive breakdown of the exact process shown in the video to get the job done right. ​Step 1: Remove the Housing Bolts ​Pop the truck up on a lift or secure it on jack stands. Position a drain pan underneath the differential. Grab an impact wrench and begin backing out all of the bolts securing the differential cover to the housing. ​Pro-Tip: Leave one or two bolts loosely threaded at the very top of the cover. This keeps the cover from falling completely off and splashing old gear oil everywhere once you break the factory seal. ​Step 2: Drain the Old Fluid ​Once the lower bolts are removed, use a chisel and a dead-blow hammer to gently tap the lower edge of the cover. Pry it open slightly to break the old gasket seal and let the fluid drain smoothly into your catch pan. Once the majority of the oil has drained, remove the top safety bolts and take the cover completely off. ​Step 3: Prep the Differential Housing ​With the gears exposed, stuff a clean shop rag inside the housing cavity to protect the ring and pinion from any loose debris. Use a gasket scraper or razor to carefully peel away the old silicone sealant from the mating surface. Follow up with a die grinder equipped with a surface conditioning disc to polish the flange completely clean, then remove the rag and wipe down the interior edge with brake cleaner. ​Step 4: Deep Clean the Diff Cover ​Take the removed differential cover over to a parts washer. Use a solvent brush to scrub out any residual sludge, metal filings, and old oil. If the exterior has built-up road grime or rust, give it a quick pressure wash or hose down. Finally, use an air blow gun to thoroughly dry the cover, ensuring absolutely no moisture or solvent remains inside. ​Step 5: Apply New RTV Sealant ​Lay the clean cover flat on your workbench. Grab a high-performance RTV silicone sealant (ensure it is rated for gear oil exposure) and lay down a clean, continuous bead along the center of the mating flange. Make sure to loop around the inside of each bolt hole to prevent future leaks. ​Step 6: Reinstall the Cover and Torque ​Carefully align the cover back onto the differential housing, making sure not to smudge the fresh RTV bead. Hand-start all of your bolts to avoid cross-threading. Once they are all in place, use a ratchet to tighten them down in a star pattern, ensuring even pressure across the gasket surface. ​Step 7: Fill with Fresh Gear Oil ​Locate the fill plug on the side or rear of the differential and remove it. Grab your premium synthetic fluid—such as SAE 75W-85 hypoid gear lubricant. Insert the bottle nozzle into the fill hole and squeeze the fluid in. You will need to continue filling until the fluid level reaches the bottom edge of the fill hole and just begins to weep out. ​Step 8: Reinstall the Fill Plug & Inspect ​Wipe away any excess fluid that leaked out during the filling process. Reinstall the fill plug and torque it to spec. Give the entire assembly one final look to ensure your seals are clean and dry.show more

Insecurity. HERE ARE THE RED FLAGS TO HELP YOU... IDENTIFY IMPERSONATORS, KIDNAPPERS, CRIMINALS, TERRORISTS ON MILITARY OR PARAMILITARY UNIFORMS WHEN DRIVING OR TRAVELING THROUGH THE HIGHWAYS IN NIGERIA. VISIBILITY AND STATIONED VEHICLES. When driving and you suddenly sight men in uniform and guns, either soldiers in Army camouflage, police, or paramilitary uniforms standing on the express in an isolated area, slow down from afar and scan the area for proper visibility. If the road is a two lane express, ensure both sides of the road where the uniform men are standing are not covered with bush. If the both sides of the road is covered with thick and over grown grass, please it is a red flag. Before soldiers, police, civil defence, immigration or customs set up checkpoints or road blocks in the middle of nowhere, they will properly clear the bushes on one side, or on both sides of the road where they intend to mount their road block. They will build makeshift shades or seats. They may build makeshift shelter and create a proper space for vehicles to park. At a certain distance, the road block will be very visible to you as a motorists. HERE IS THE MOST IMPORTANT POINT. If you see such road blocks, please check both sides of the road if there is a stationed vehicle of the officers. For such an isolated roadblock there must be a well branded vehicle of the organisation parked by the side of the road for easy identification, confidence, and protection assurance. If the men who blocked the road are on Army camouflage, you will see a well branded Army Hilux parked by the side of the road. If they are on police uniform, you will see a well branded police vehicle parked by the side of the road. If they are on customs, immigration or civil defence uniform, you will see their branded vehicles parked by the side of the road. The vehicle is for proper identification and protection assurance. Please note: on such isolated road blocks or checkpoint, they will never use unbranded vehicles, unmarked vehicles, or private cars. If you don't see a branded vehicle of the force parked by one side of the road when you sight such road blocks from a distance, it a big red flag. If such road block is not very visible from a distance, it's also a big red flag. HOW THE OFFICERS ARE KITTED UP. Check how the uniform men on the road are dressed from up to down. If they are on a legitimate stop and search or road block, they will dress properly from head to toe. They will Put on their uniforms properly, with boots. They will put on their caps and will properly shave their beards as officers. No overgrown hair, no dreadlocks, no long beards. If you see them on pam slippers, snickers, or rubber shoe, it is a very big red flag. HOW THEIR GUNS ARE POSITIONED OR DISPLAYED. If they are on legitimate road block, or on a stop and search, they will never point their guns on oncoming vehicles. Their guns will either be hanged on their back, or seen pointing to the ground. In this video, you will see that they are not properly kitted up. They are putting on pam slippers, and mounting road block. (RED FLAG) You will not see a branded vehicle of the Army parked on any side of the road. (RED FLAG) You can clearly see some of them pointing their guns towards oncoming vehicles. Ready to shoot. (RED FLAG) Please don't be deceived by their uniform. They are bandits and terrorists using the Nigerian military camouflage to disguise. Retweet to save a life.show more

There is 1 fundamental flaw with most health programs:... They pass the complexity over to you. You are presented with high-level information or action steps that fail to dig into the details. Why? Because this is hard to do; and the coach or creator of the program didn't put in the work to sift through that complexity for you. Instead, they passed it over to you to figure it out for yourself. Like it or not, someone has to eat this pain. And I'm of the belief that this shouldn't be you. Thankfully, I've put in the work—I've suffered a high degree of pain—so you don't have to. Over the last 2.5 years I create a 12-step health system to achieve total human optimisation. A blueprint to eliminate lingering health issues, gain complete control over your mind and body, and access your full cognitive capacity. You'll find all the details here: And I'll admit: It's not a cheap program. I don't offer low quality cookie-cutter services. Like Leonardo da Vinci and the Mona Lisa, this program has been cultivated over many years. And it's damn good. Which is why tomorrow it will return to it's full price of $1,475. Meaning you have 24 hours to secure it at 53% off, $697. The program is 100% self-paced, and you maintain access to support and coaching for 6-months at a time. How does this work? From your sign-up date, a subscription renewal fee is charged every 6 months so you can maintain access to me and my team. (+all roll-outs/updates) This renewal will be exactly 1/2 of your initial investment. Meaning, if you secure the program at 53% off, your renewal will be $348.50 every 6 months (down from $737.50). This is fixed. The 53% off code is auto-applied at checkout as we speak, it will only work for the first 50 people. Go here to secure it:show more

This explains it all. Hillary Clinton has greatly been... behind the destruction of America Hillary Clinton wrote her entire college thesis on a book that explains how to turn any country into a communist dictatorship Wait until you hear this “You want to know how we got here? I'll tell you. It's people like Hillary Clinton who've been introducing Socialist Marxist ideology to the American public for decades, and they've been pushing their agenda to turn this country into a commie nation. And if you don't believe me, tell me if any of Saul Alinsky's Rules for Radicals sound familiar based on how you're living your life right now and what this country's become. It's the exact playbook on how to convert any nation into a communist dictatorship. — It was written down step-by-step. So here's how it works. It's eight steps to take any civilization and convert it to socialist Marxist ideology that's reinforced by communism, which, by the way, Hillary Clinton wrote her entire college thesis on this particular book. — The first move is to control healthcare. You control healthcare, you control people's bodies, you control their choices, and you create dependency - The second move dovetails right off the first. They jack up poverty so people can't breathe. Keep wages low, make prices high through inflation, tax f*cking everything, and then suddenly people are desperate. That's exactly what they want because when you're desperate, you beg for anyone who promises some form of relief - Then the third step is to bury a generation in debt. $20 trillion, $30 trillion. Who's keeping score again? Nobody. That's where we're at. The math is absolutely f*cking brutal on purpose and the goal is to crash the system, and then they offer the solution. - Step four in Alinsky's plot is to take guns off the table, disarm the people, and centralize enforcement. Makes everything easier when no one can push back - The fifth step is to weaponize welfare. Food, housing, income, dependency on the state. Call it compassion if you want. I call it a leash. - Then the sixth step is to own the classrooms. Control the curriculum, control the future voters, control the narrative. Kids are taught to parrot slogans and not to ask questions, which is perfect, right? At least if you want to institute socialism and a Marxist ideology and a communist dictatorship in your own f*cking country, - Then step seven is to erase God, or at least replace faith with dependency. Because faith causes people to ask questions. Dependency forces people to submit - Then finally, the eighth step. They keep the population fighting each other. Class versus class, race versus race, left versus right. While the people are busy clawing over crumbs, they rob us blind and they take over. Look, every single one of these moves is being played out in real time right now. It's not a coincidence. Not even close. It's a pattern, and if you see the pattern, good. You're awake. Don't just watch it happen. Push back. Talk about it. Share it. Wake people up. Because the worst part of this is that they knew that a society of young, strong, level-headed, logical thinking men would never have allowed any of this to take place, and that's why they came after us first.“show more

Imagine if someone told you have to catch the... biggest flying object in the world as it's falls back to Earth faster than a speeding bullet, all so it can get reused and can be launched again back into space. I bet most people would throw in the towel right there, shaking their heads like, "No way, that's impossible." But not Elon. I’m talking about SpaceX's Starship, THE vehicle that will be used to make life multiplanetary. Back in October 2024, during their fifth test flight, Elon's team pulled off something straight out of a sci-fi movie. The Super Heavy booster, the bottom part of the rocket, towering over 200 feet tall, blasted off from their Starbase in Texas, sent the upper stage soaring, and then came roaring back. Instead of letting it splash down in the ocean or crash, they caught it mid-air with these giant mechanical arms on the launch tower, nicknamed "Mechazilla,” bringing it to a gentle stop. It was the first time ever, and it worked flawlessly on the very first try. What people don’t realize is each catch saves $ millions in costs, makes space travel cheaper, and gets us one step closer to putting people on Mars or the Moon for good. Reusable rockets is like re-charging your Tesla, instead of buying a new one after every trip. It's game changer for humanity's future. What inspires me about Elon is that drive… it’s unlike anything I’ve ever seen. I would say I’m very driven, but this man is at a different level. Most people see “impossible” and step back, but Elon sees “impossible” and goes head in first. And history always changes bc of the ones that do the impossible. And I believe history will recognize Elon as the greatest entrepreneur in history.show more

‼️UNSCRIPTED: Shedeur Sanders and the Rise They Never Saw... Coming … There are athletes who play the game and then there are figures who shift culture. Shedeur Sanders has become the latter. Not because the world cleared a path for him, but because he rose above everything they said he could not overcome. From the moment his name surfaced in NFL conversations, critics formed their narratives. He is not ready. He cannot read an NFL playbook. He does not have the arm talent. He will not start this season. He will sit behind veterans. He will fold under pressure. They buried him on depth charts that were never meant to define him. But here is the biblical pattern. Every chosen leader is underestimated before they are elevated. Every David is measured by the armor he does not wear. Every Joseph is counted out before he steps into his palace. Every Daniel is doubted until he survives what should have destroyed him. And even Jesus walked through wilderness before walking into purpose. Shedeur’s journey mirrors that same divine blueprint. He did not rise because the critics supported him. He rose in spite of them. He rose above projections. He rose above narratives. He rose above the low expectations placed on him by people who never studied his preparation. And just like David he did not need public approval to prove he was ready. He just needed a moment. A moment to step into the pocket. A moment to command the huddle. A moment to show he can read defenses, manipulate safeties, extend plays, and deliver throws critics said he could not make. When God appoints someone no amount of opposition can block the assignment. Critics can predict it. Analysts can dismiss it. Experts can misunderstand it. But they cannot stop it. God has a history of taking what people overlook and turning it into what the world cannot ignore.show more

So I actually sat down and watched the entire... Internet Anarchist hit-piece on Chibi Reviews. It made me sick to my stomach. In IA's video he: -Defames and straight up lies about Chibi -Mocks Chibi for nearly dying/suicide -Compares digging up his dead brothers corpse to drawings -Heavily implies doxing and harassment is justified because "Chibi Deserves it" -Brings up Null for no reason as a "credible source" (bruh) This barely scratches surface but the entire video screams "I thought this would be an easy W but didn't really do any research/I'm a tourist misrepresenting/being disingenuous about an entire industry and labeling people horrible and justifying their lives being ruined etc." its basically the same language of narcissists and abusers. Bro is being roasted in his own comments and BOTH his uploads (keep in mind the video I watched was the WATERED DOWN version) were massively ratio'd with dislikes. The best part? He proudly proclaimed there will be a PART 2. Bro should just drop it 100% because he's self-imploding and destroying whats left of his career and dwindling credibility, he needs to take a step back, plagerism is bad enough but his absolute cope over an obviously fake shitpost (they don't like their own medicine) 100% proves that its all about ego. He won't stop. He will release that Part 2 and its probably going to blow up in his face, bro posted fake posts and is STILL lying—so get meme'd on. Note: This video did contain some personal information, I censored it because unlike some people I'm not a total scumbag when it comes to making videos.show more

how tread.fi mm bot actually works and how to... launch it safe for your balance market making with tread is not free yield you're basically renting a very fast trader that: - posts both bids and asks around the mid - tries to keep your net exposure inside a controlled band instead of letting you drift into a huge directional bet - farm tread points in the video below i walk through the clicks: > step one - pick the market and leverage if you farm trade.xyz or Ventuals be careful, those markets completely static on weekends and bot most likely will stop. there's no problems with majors though (btc, eth, hype, etc.) for less risk choose leverage below 10x > step two - fund and size the bot before you touch settings, make sure your inventory is at least a bit higher than the recommended inventory size (think +10-20% buffer) otherwise you have a risk of liquidations recommended inventory depends on the budget, bias and mode you should be ok with that whole amount being actively traded. this is not a tiny test order, this is your working capital for the bot > step three - choose bias type neutral mm goal: max volume with min price impact not profit and no loss, you're just burning dex fees in range of your budget use this if you don't have a strong view on direction long / short skew goal: combine mm with a directional opinion bot front-loads your bias in the first half of the run and unwinds later path matters: you need price behavior to roughly match your bias path (best case is up/down only), not just end higher/lower even if you bet on right direction positive pnl is not guaranteed, you should test with small amount at first to understand algos. > step four - execution mode aggressive - tighter around mid, more fills, faster volume - better for mega-liquid markets where you just want to get done and reduce exposure quickly normal - good default for most large pairs - balances between getting hit and not chasing every move passive - behave closer to a grid: slower, wider - potentially higher returns over longer periods but you need patience and monitoring > step five - run and monitor once the bot is live, watch: - pnl and executed notional (are you bleeding per notional traded?) - participation rate (if you're 80–90% of the market, you're basically trading against yourself) if something looks off, pause early. make sure all positions are closed and orders are canceled. TLDR; inventory is your work balance, it will be used to open positions keep inventory buffer at least at 10%, running with less than recommended inventory is how you get forced into bad fills or even liquidations on a weird move. a bit more inventory = more room for the bot to rebalance without panicking. bias is harder than it looks, with a skewed bot you're not just betting end price > start price, you're betting on the path monitor often, there are a lot of unpredicted maintenances happens on dexes sideshow more

Sequoia's Shaun Maguire on Why Elon's TERAFAB is Underrated:... "I’m gonna sh*t on a lot of other investors for a second." “I’m watching people come in with what I’d call 8th grade level education on the industry, trying to make definitive statements.” "I’ve been obsessed with semiconductors since I was a little kid. I literally bought Nvidia shares in the IPO in 1999. I was obsessed with semiconductor fab as a kid, got really deep into the chemical processes that go into making wafers." "People are assigning way too low a probability that it will work.” Hill & Valley Forum 2026 (The Hill & Valley Forum) / Elon Musk . . . “I think it’s underrated because I think people don’t think it’s gonna work. Like I think a lot of people view it—and again, this is a systems-level problem—and I’m gonna just go get sh*t on a lot of other investors for a second. It’s been pretty wild for me as chips became all the rage again. To brag for a second, I’ve been obsessed with semiconductors since I was a little kid. I literally bought Nvidia shares in the IPO in 1999. I was obsessed with semiconductor fab as a kid, got really deep into the chemical processes that go into making wafers. If you think about the silicon industry, from the mid-50s to the mid-90s, the bottleneck was actually chemical steps. It was not lithography—it was making ultrapure wafers, which require 20+ chemical steps. Then it flipped to lithography, and EUV became probably the hardest single step in semiconductor manufacturing. But there’s all these investors that, three years ago, had never done anything in hardware, had never thought about semiconductors, that are brand new and think that they’re experts. I’m not trying to say I’m an expert—there’s a lot I need to learn—but I’ve at least been paying attention to this field for a very long time. And I’m watching these people come in with what I’d call eighth-grade-level education on the industry, trying to make definitive statements around what the bottlenecks are, what’s gonna be hard. They’re basically just parroting each other. It reminds me a lot of when people were trying to assess the likelihood of reusable rockets working in 2014, or Starlink working in 2019–2020, where everyone would tell me to my face: it will not work. Or when people were saying self-driving will never work. Especially with camera-only—where Elon was a contrarian doing camera-only rather than vision plus lidar. All these things fit the same pattern of people thinking superficially when they’re brand new to a field, then having strong opinions on how things are gonna work. And I think that on TERAFAB, people are assigning way too low a probability that it will work. I personally feel confident that it will. Timeframe—there are questions—but I’ve thought through all the different steps. Almost everyone, when you talk about TERAFAB, they’re like, ‘but what about EUV?’ And EUV is something they first learned about in the last 18 months. It’s comical to me."show more

Message from Bob Katter from FB: “This beggars belief!... We now face the very real prospect of Canberra-based bureaucrats deciding whether I’ve made a "hate statement" or whether I haven’t. Canberra: a place so out-of-touch it voted over 60% FOR the Voice, while over 60% of the rest of Australia voted AGAINST it. If you ever needed proof that this place does not reflect the real world, well, there it is. Clear as day. And it doesn’t stop there. They’re pushing overarching legislation that gives bureaucrats the power to tell YOU what you can and can’t say (on top of legislation that passed just before Christmas that dictates what you can or can't do in your own backyard). A group of paper-pushers, whose shoe leather has never touched anything but concrete pavement, will likely have the power to decide whether you can attend a rally or recite the Bible... this is on top of telling you whether you cut down a tree, plant a tree, or do any number of things on your own property. Well, I’ll tell you right now: this is not freedom. This won't stop Bondi from reoccurring. This is not common sense. And it’s not Australia as we know it. I’ll be standing up against these powers every step of the way. Because once they control "your backyard", they control your life. And we know what kind of society that is.”show more

🇷🇼🇨🇩 Rwanda–DRC Peace Deal: Kagame Full Interview — Key... Points President Paul Kagame sat down with Steve Clemons (Al Jazeera) to break down the Trump-brokered peace deal between Rwanda & the DRC. 2/ 🔴 “Trump created pressure that never existed before.” Kagame calls the deal historic — the first time a US President intervenes personally at this level to push Kigali & Kinshasa toward peace. 3/ 🟡 Root Causes Kagame says the crisis goes back to: • The 1994 Genocide • Refugee flows into DRC • Security spillover Rwanda has “warned about for decades.” 4/ 🔵 On Trump’s diplomacy Kagame praises practical results over speeches: “I like what brings results. High-level talk usually creates more problems.” 5/ 🟢 On choosing US & Qatar over African mediation Kagame rejects the claim: “Tshisekedi himself went to Qatar and requested Doha talks. Rwanda never avoided African frameworks.” 6/ 🔴 Two parallel negotiation tracks Kagame explains: • Doha track → DRC vs AFC/M23 • Washington track → Rwanda vs DRC And both converged into the final deal. 7/ 🟡 Can Tshisekedi control the East? Kagame avoids a direct response but stresses: “Implementation matters more than promises.” 8/ 🔵 On minerals & US–China rivalry Kagame highlights Rwanda’s own resources — tungsten, tin, tantalum, lithium — and rejects mineral smuggling accusations: “Not everything exported from Rwanda comes from Congo.” 9/ 🟢 Kagame says Rwanda is unfairly targeted “Many neighbors trade far more with DRC than Rwanda — yet Rwanda is always the accused.” 10/ 🔴 Development vs destabilization Kagame says Rwanda cannot be building itself while destabilizing others: “It’s impossible.” 11/ 🟡 Why this deal is different According to Kagame: ✔ Strong US pressure ✔ Qatar deeply engaged ✔ New accountability mechanisms ✔ Rwanda & DRC finally reached the first step together 12/ 🔵 No guarantees — but new hope Kagame: “No one can guarantee 100%. But we now have a path, a framework, and people who will hold us accountable.” 13/ 🟢 What determines success • Rwanda’s implementation • DRC’s consistency • US & Qatar follow-through • Regional leaders supporting the process 14/ 🔴 Closing Moment Steve Clemons: “History will judge this moment.” Kagame: “We’ll use this opportunity well.”show more

⚖️ CONSTITUTIONAL CRISIS IN THE COURTS: What Happens When... Judges Don’t Know the Constitution? In January 2023, five of President Biden’s judicial nominees were questioned by John Kennedy Kennedy in a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing. What followed was disturbing. 📽️ When asked about Article V (the amendment process), Article II (the Executive Branch), or even basic legal philosophies like originalism and purposivism, they couldn’t answer. “Article V is not coming to mind at the moment.” “Neither is Article II.” “I’ve never faced the question of purposivism in my 21 years.” These are not law students. They were nominees for lifetime federal judgeships—entrusted with interpreting and enforcing the U.S. Constitution. And four of the five were confirmed. 📜 THE DEEPER PROBLEM This isn’t just about five unqualified nominees. It’s about a judicial system under siege: President Biden has already appointed over 235 federal judges, many selected for diversity quotas, political loyalty, or ideological alignment—not legal excellence. Several now sit on appeals courts, just one step from the Supreme Court. At the highest level, we now have activist Justices like Sotomayor and Jackson, openly embracing partisan narratives and disregarding textual constraints. And district judges—some without basic constitutional knowledge—are issuing nationwide injunctions, blocking President Donald J. Trump Trump, and undermining separation of powers. This is judicial activism turned judicial tyranny. It’s no longer about interpreting the law. It’s about redefining it to fit political goals—something the Founders warned would destroy the Republic. ⚠️ WE ARE WITNESSING A JUDICIAL COUP 🔹 Laws are passed by Congress—unelected judges now rewrite them. 🔹 Executive orders are blocked—not on legal grounds, but on ideology. 🔹 Election laws are changed—not by state legislatures, but by courts. 🔹 Due process and equal justice are threatened—depending on political affiliation. This is not justice. This is a power grab in black robes. 🇺🇸 WHAT’S AT STAKE 🛑 Our Constitution is under siege. 🛑 The balance of powers is crumbling. 🛑 And the people are losing trust in the courts—because the judges themselves don’t know or respect the very document they swear to uphold. If we don’t reclaim our courts with qualified, constitutionalist judges, the law will become whatever partisan elites want it to be—and liberty will vanish. THIS IS THE FIGHT OF OUR TIME. The American people must demand that every judge—from the lowest court to the Supreme Court—understand, respect, and defend the Constitution.
