Tough decision this morning, it was a big moment... in the calendar - Sports Day Dad’s race. I’ve been struggling for a week with a strained lower back & my chiropractor said don’t do anything too strenuous this week so it probably wasn’t the right thing to do. But I had my little girl saying “just give it a try Daddy”. So there was only one thing for it… The expectation & pressure was on. 💭 “Just get out in front & stay there” 1st place, in 2nd gear & thankfully in one piece. See you next year 🥇show more

A whale on Hyperliquid is holding 19,752 $ETH long... worth $39 MILLION at 20x leverage from an entry of $2,012. He put up a $1.96M account to swing that size and he's already down $556K on it. $ETH only has to slip another $37 to $1,947 and the whole thing gets wiped. His week looks flawless but his lifetime record is a coin flip and this is the toss that decides if he stays in the game. $ETH doesn't even need to crash. It just needs one red candle.show more

This is why trading is not taken seriously Million... of videos around promoting false expectations, absurd lifestyles, changing life quickly. I know real traders who wake up at craziest hours to trade, fight everyday for a living, help others and have only one thing in mind: manage good the trade and wait for the next opportunity.

Recently we had a bug on Switch where NPC... interactions (which have Depth of Field) caused a horrible crawling black pixels bug. We saw reports of a similar bug with certain AMD 7xxx series cards with #NoMansSky Worlds Part II, but until this week hadn’t been able to reproduce this issue - our players reported various semi fix methods with AA modes and windows settings, adding to the mystery. I reproduced the bug yesterday after finding a YouTube link on Reddit that happened to show their full graphics settings! You can see the bug here in my quick phone capture of the horror bug! 4 hours of shader debugging later and I have submitted a fix which should make it into the next patch. On the surface this bug looks the same as the Switch issue which was NaN propagation - but it wasn’t: Interested to see if any graphics programmers here can have a stab at what the bug is, bearing in mind it was on one class of GPUs only.show more

Jeff Bezos never has to work another day in... his life. He works like he needs the job. Ninety five percent of his time goes to AI. Meetings from 9 to 7. Technical papers after. His reason is one sentence. Bezos: “The world is so interesting right now. We’re in multiple golden ages at once.” Not one. Several. Running at the same time. For ten thousand years, humanity got one breakthrough per era. Fire. The wheel. The printing press. Electricity. A single leap. Then centuries of silence. That rhythm just broke. Artificial intelligence. Space. Gene editing. Robotics. Energy. All of it arriving inside the same ten years. Nothing in recorded history looks like this. So why does it feel like an ending instead of a beginning. Because the mind evolved to flinch at danger, not to measure it. Collapse feels loud. Progress feels like it belongs to someone else. Step back far enough and the truth turns almost violent. Every person who came before you lived and died in the world they were born into. Nothing moved. Nothing shifted. The map they were handed was the map they returned. You were dropped into the one decade where the whole thing changes at once. Everyone before you knew only the old world. Everyone after you will know only the new one. You are the only ones who will ever see both. Bezos: “There’s never been a more extraordinary moment to be alive.” That was not optimism. It was arithmetic. You were not born too late. You were born on the seam between two worlds. Almost no one alive will realize they are standing on it.show more

Met my girlfriend's parents for the first time. Her... dad asked what I do for work. I said I build trading systems. He said like Wall Street? I said no. 6 AI agents. They work while I sleep. He laughed. So robots are making you money? I did not argue. I opened my laptop. Showed him the terminal. 6 agents running. 47 mispriced markets caught in the first week alone. His face changed. That is not gambling. That is automation? Exactly. Then I showed him how it works. Built the whole thing in 6 hours. Agent 1: Monitoring Runs 24/7. Watches Polymarket for mispriced markets. Spots an anomaly. Writes to memory and pings me on Telegram instantly. Agent 2: Research Parses news, X, macro data via browser tool on a cron schedule. Every morning I have a full digest on all open positions before I check my phone. Agent 3: Trading Reads the research agent memory. Sees the market has not reacted yet. Acts. Execution tool in gateway mode with a whitelist. No full access on a live server. Agent 4: Watchdog Heartbeat every 5 minutes. Monitoring running. No errors. Positions up to date. Something breaks. Immediate Telegram message. All of this. One Gateway. One config file. Isolation via per-agent scope. The token trick: stopped dumping everything into one file. Critical rules in bootstrap. Markets, patterns, past trades in memory. Semantic search pulls it when needed. Token spend dropped 3x. From $0.40 per request to $0.13. First week running: → 47 mispriced markets caught before Polymarket adjusted → Average entry edge 8 to 12 cents per position → Watchdog fired 3 times and caught a broken RPC before it cost me anything The whole system is plain text files. Open an editor. Change one line. Agent behaves differently. No deploy. No build. Her dad went quiet. Then he asked can you teach this? Her mom asked for the setup guide. I built the entire framework. Six agents. Full deployment. Memory architecture. Telegram alerts. You only need Claude + device + 1 hour per day. Giving this free for 24 hours. To get it: 1. Comment the word "Claude" 2. Like and retweet this 3. Follow me Himanshu Kumar so I can DM you Save this post. Deploy the 6-agent system this week. Start with $200. Scale on evidence.show more

🤯 My mail day on Monday was mind blowing!... This to me is the best Randy Moss rookie card. Skol!! 1998 SKYBOX EX-2001 ESSENTIAL CREDENTIALS FUTURE #4/6 I’ve been a season ticket holder of the Vikings since ‘99 and have many fond memories. I stopped collecting in ‘96 growing up but started back up in ‘13. I dabbled in Moss cards since then but didn’t study them and know the important sets until ‘20 as I mainly collected late 70s to mid-90s high grade rookies that I chased growing up. To have the chance to own a Moss card so special is sacred to me. There are a few Moss super collectors I’ve met. Half are Vikings fans and half are Moss fans. This one is coming to MN and is the only copy of the 4 that I have located that will be back in Vikings country! #skolnation A huge Moss collector that’s been active on him since ‘04 recently had life hit him with a difficult stretch and is looking to move a Moss amazing collection. Helping him find new homes so let me know if you are searching for anything special from his rookie year forward as he probably has it! This card will be graded on-site at #nsccshow next week. I will post the results. Only one ever graded like it by psa and it’s a psa 7 now owned by ‘mikeyinthehobby’ on IG. See link in my Rob’s Sports Takes profile for my full collection & to check prices.

She pays $200 a month for her Pilates class.... The studio pays her $18,000 a month for the videos she films during it. She's a member, not an employee. She shows up to the class she'd attend anyway, films a few minutes on her phone, and goes home. That footage is the entire business. Boutique Pilates and yoga studios charge $200+ a month and have some of the worst content on the internet - beautiful spaces, dead Instagram feeds. They know they need video. They have no idea how to make it week after week. So when one member quietly showed them what their own studio could look like, they didn't ask the price. They asked when she could start. Now she films one class and AI does everything that used to need a team: cuts it into 20 reels, writes every caption in the studio's voice, builds the 30-day calendar, and sends the monthly report that gets the contract renewed. The only human part left is being on the mat, which she already is. Here's why the numbers work. One new member is worth ~$2,400 a year to that studio. So a $3,000/month content retainer isn't a cost to them, it's a rounding error against the members it brings in. 6 studios at ~$3,000 each. $18,000 a month. Her tools: $40. That gap doesn't move whether she has one studio or ten. Every other woman in that class is filming the same thing for her own page and getting nothing for it. The only difference is she pointed hers at the studios and let AI carry the 90% that used to cost a five-person agency. There are boutique studios like this in every city, all starving for content, all signing one supplier and never looking again. The full playbook - niches, how to find them, how to close them - is right below. Save it before someone claims your city first👇show more

It’s that time of year again, and like clockwork,... they descend on the school in droves—parents who have been ghosts all year, suddenly outraged that their child is failing. They storm in during the final week, demanding answers, meetings, and miracles, as if the report card is some cruel surprise. Never mind the 10, 15, or even 20+ notices we sent home. Never mind the repeated phone calls, the emails, the texts begging for a parent conference. We reached out relentlessly, but radio silence was the only reply… until now. As teachers, we’ve learned the hard way to protect ourselves and our sanity. I keep meticulous records of every single contact attempt—every note sent, every call made, every voicemail left, every email and text. Each student has their own folder in my binder, a complete paper trail of our good-faith efforts. Because this end-of-year ambush is so predictable, our school sets aside a full day just for these parents. We line up tables in the gym like a tribunal of truth. Parents file in one by one. They give us the child’s name, and we calmly retrieve that thick folder. Then, as the complaints and accusations start flying—“You never told me!” “This isn’t fair!”—we begin the quiet, powerful ritual. One by one, we pull out each piece of documentation and lay it on the table in front of them. Dated. Detailed. Undeniable. The yelling fades. The bluster dies. The finger-pointing stops cold as the evidence stacks up right before their eyes. Why not get involved with your child’s education? We have proven data that children whose parents are engaged with the teachers and involved with the school are more successful.show more

The 20% American Hormuz toll lasted one day. What... replaced it is a countdown to the destruction of a power grid that was already 18 gigawatts short. Monday, POTUS Trump announced America would be reimbursed "at the rate of 20% on all cargo shipped." Tuesday morning, Iran's foreign minister Abbas fully endorsed the idea. "POTUS is absolutely right," Araghchi wrote. Only the rate was wrong. Tuesday afternoon, the fee was dead. Kings and emirs called, Trump said, offering "billions and billions of dollars" of investment instead, and the man who invented the toll buried it: "I don't think anybody should be able to charge a fee for the Strait." By his own account, the toll was not collected. It was bought out. No agreement has been published. No amount has been named. The bill did not just disappear. It merely changed address. What replaced the invoice is a calendar if you watch closely. "Next week it gets really bad for them," Trump told Fox, "because next week comes the power plants. Next week comes the bridges." All of them, "unless they get to the table and negotiate." During last summer's emergency, Iran generated about 62 gigawatts against demand near 80. That is the 18-gigawatt hole, before the first plant is hit. A grid already below demand does not fail politely. It sheds whole regions to save itself. A power station is not light. It is also water pumps, hospitals, cold storage, and the machinery that repairs the next thing destroyed. The CENTCOM blockade seals the coast. The grid strikes the interior. The bridges disconnect the parts. Naming the targets a week early is the strategy. Strategic bombing as forward guidance: the damage begins before the bombs arrive, in hoarded diesel, moved cash, a government pricing tomorrow's infrastructure against today's concession. POTUS has made this exact threat before. It bought a ceasefire that failed. An ultimatum that once bought only time must now work twice. The bombs are scheduled for next week. The first thing on the clock is not Iran's electricity. It is America's word.show more

My Uber driver asked what I do for work.... Software.... Cool. Can you look at something? He handed me his phone at a red light. Terminal. Claude chat. Green P&L. +$6,200. He drives Uber 4 days a week. Makes $1,100. Has a 2-year-old daughter. Where did you find this? Your article. The 10,000 wallets one. He read it 3 months ago. Did not understand half of it. Asked Claude to explain it like he's five. 214 messages. All during breaks between rides. Parked at gas stations. Waiting for pings. 1st thing Claude told him: 87% of wallets lose money. Do not be the 87%. He installed poly_data. Fed it to Claude. Found 47 wallets with Sharpe above 2.0. Filtered crypto only. Quarter Kelly. $200 starting bankroll. From his tips. 93 messages later Claude helped him build the 20-line brain from the article. Bayesian updates. EV filter at 5%. Fully automated. Last 45 days: → 480 trades → 91.3% win rate → +$6,200 Best trade, whale convergence on Fed rate cut. 4 wallets entered in 2 minutes. Entry $0.12. Resolved $1.00. +$1,760. While dropping off a passenger at JFK. The passenger tipped him $5. The bot made $1,760. His wife found the Telegram alerts on his phone. Thought he was texting another woman. He showed her the P&L curve. Can you make me one? How long until you quit driving? He looked at me through the rearview mirror. I'm not stopping. Uber is my cover story. I wrote the article.

Had my mind blown today by how simple it... was to buy Tokenized Gold. I was listening to Balaji talk about Gold today on a podcast with Luke Gromen I asked ChatGPT “what’s the best way to buy Gold that’s digital and almost like owning the real thing?” It responded with “tokenized gold: Each token represents ownership of real, physical gold This is not a gold stock, not an ETF, and not a synthetic bet—it’s closer to digital warehouse receipts for gold.” It then said the best option was Tether Gold (XAUT). I remembered recently the World team saying that you could buy real assets like Gold on World App. I wondered if you could buy XAUT? I opened the app and one of the first ten assets was XAUT. Swap USDC for Tether Gold in under 10 seconds and that’s it. The experience was magical. We are so close the Balaji vision of interoperable money and assets. When everything is a token, value will be the only thing that matters again. Tokens are just 24/7 global markets for trust. People will be able to move in and out of whatever assets they trust instantly. Trust will become the most important thing that compounds. What’s even cooler, is that you can then send Gold to anyone, instantly in World Chat 💬 Any asset, anywhere, to anyone, in any any chat. Check out the screen recordings to see how fast and easy it wasshow more

I spent 6 months studying Polymarket. Yesterday I realized... I was playing chess against people who know my moves in advance. It all started with a simple question: why are some wallets consistently in profit and I'm not? I read the same news. Watched the same debates. Analyzed the same statistics. But they entered the market hours before the news became news. I found a cluster of 12 wallets. They share one thing: they buy when the price hasn't moved yet. And sell when the crowd is just starting to enter. One of them started with $288. Now the account has $666K. No loud trades. No screenshots all over Twitter. Just methodical work. Entry after entry. Week after week. I scrolled through his history and didn't find a single heroic trade. Not one bet that made half the profit. The capital curve is almost a straight line up. While everyone is looking for one trade that will change their life this wallet quietly collects bit by bit. And bit by bit turned into $666K. I started breaking down where they get their information. And realized: they don't predict. They're just closer to the source. Three levels of the food chain on Polymarket: First circle. People who know the journalist personally. Know the article comes out tomorrow morning. Position opened tonight. Second circle. People who see the first circle's activity. Notice that large wallets started moving. Enter right behind. Still before the news. Third circle. You. Read the headline on Twitter. Open Polymarket. Price already moved 40%. Think maybe it'll go higher. Buy at the peak. Guess who's selling you that position? The first two circles. Platform statistics: 84% of traders lose money. That money doesn't disappear. It flows to the remaining 16%. I spent six months trying to get into that 16% through analysis and research. Then I looked at my P&L. And realized the obvious: I will never be in the first circle. I don't have journalist friends. No sources in candidate teams. No insider info. But I can be in the second. You don't need to know what will happen. You need to see who already started moving. Their wallets are public. Their positions are visible to everyone. Their entries can be tracked in real time and copied automatically → Copy the winners: They spend years building connections. You spend seconds copying their trade. They risk reputation and money. You only risk time on setup. I deleted all my indicators. Closed all news tabs. Stopped watching debates. Now I only watch one thing: where the wallets that don't lose are moving. On this market there are two places: Either you're the liquidity being drained. Or you're the shadow of the one draining. Stop being the third circle.show more

introducing a new, very fun, LLM benchmark- the Game-of-Life... Bench! the rules are simple: given an 8x8 grid following Conway's game of life rules, the goal is to create an initial pattern with at most 32 cells that can last the longest number of turns before dying/repeating. some results to highlight (with caveats detailed below): - gpt 5.1 lasts the longest with a 106 step run - claude models are really bad at this! they refuse to reason about this task and score < 25 points - deepseek r1 is the best open model with 102 steps. why? because i wanted to create a benchmark that has (i think) no practicality, but is still fun to look at, cheap, and still measures something interesting. i also am a big fan of the game of life. its absurdly simple rules leading to intractability is extremely cool to me. also, i saw a lot of work with LLMs trying to "predict" the next state in Conway's game of life, I think game-of-life bench is more fun because it's pretty open ended and only asks the LLM for the initial state. I also think this could be an RL env? but idk why you would ever train on this task haha i don't think this is a "serious" benchmark because it doesnt measure anything practical, but i still think it's a hard benchmark exactly because you can't predict what happens with your initial state many turns into the future; this is why i was initially expecting all LLMs to be bad at it, but turns out, some are clearly better than the others (the ordering may surprise you!) reminder: this is still a work-in-progress; (1) i am gpu-poor so could only do 10 runs for each model, even though total running cost is relatively low. maybe with some more credits i can run more seeds for each model. (2) i handpicked models which i think are at the frontier right now, plus some others that were on my mind. so, if you'd like to see a model on here, let me know. (3) i currently only do an 8x8 grid because i thought that by itself would be pretty hard for current LLMs, but of course we can increase grid sizes! (4) the coolest thing is, i dont think we can calculate the max possible number of states (yay undecidability!) you can go without repeating, so this is essentially a no-ceiling task, which is pretty cool! again, i did this mostly out of a desire to make LLMs do something fun. if this keeps me entertained for a few more days, i'd likely release a blog post on it. if it keeps me entertained for a week (and someone sponsors me), i'll put more work into it :P lastly, this is fully open sourced, so feel free to run this on your own!show more

Did you know? Your calf has a muscle that... helps pump blood back to your heart. It’s called the soleus, and it’s part of your peripheral heart. When it contracts, it squeezes the deep veins in your calf and pushes blood up against gravity. Valves stop it falling back. But if you sit still all day, this pump sits idle while blood pools in your legs. Mind you, standing calf raises won't fully challenge it. With the knee straight, the gastrocnemius (the muscle on the surface) is free to share the load, because it crosses the knee. So the soleus always gets help and never works at its limit. But if you bend the knee, that flips. A bent knee shortens the gastrocnemius until it goes slack and can barely produce force. Also called ‘active insufficiency’ in exercise science, where a two-joint muscle, shortened at one end, drops out of the movement. So the gastroc switches off, and the soleus, which only crosses the ankle, has to carry the whole thing on its own. That's why the best way to hit it is a bent knee: seated calf raises, or this deep squat version. It’s nearly 80% slow-twitch, so it loves volume and barely fatigues. Sustained work here has even been shown to improve blood sugar control for hours. Train it deep, slow, and often.show more
