I was asked by Gadi Glikberg if I would write a roadmap post. As a first step towards running away from the challenge, I sent him a link to Kaspa’s research forum L1 L2 category and politely asked him if he had read all the posts yet. Well, he... returned the favor and came back a few hours later with this brilliant AI podcast generated by NotebookLM after he fed it with all the relevant posts. I think the podcast is scarily accurate. I only felt like it rounded some edges in areas we actually haven't expanded on enough yet. Also, it runs through complex pseudocode too fast at times. But overall it was really accurate and even entertaining, at least for me ;) tl;dr if you’re interested in Kaspa’s based zk rollups design, listen to this thingshow more

Louis talks about Zayn’s decision to leave One Direction in the new episode of ‘The Diary of a CEO” podcast with Steven Bartlett. “I thought that we had a relationship where he could’ve had that conversation with me. […] if he told me i would have tried to tell him to stay. […] If he didn’t wanna do something, he literally wouldn’t do it. […] and that’s what I admire about him. […] I wanna know if he regrets it. […] But it absolutely crushed me, I was absolutely devastated, it felt like ‘oh is this the beginning of the end of the band?’”

On the 13th of Sept, someone transferred 180k for an iPhone Xs 256GB. After acknowledging his receipt, he called, and I told him we don't have it but will ask colleagues and let him know. I asked my friend, and he told me 190k. I begged him to leave it at 180k because that is what the guy deposited (check frame 2 for reference). When he sent the phone from Kano to Jos, then I noticed it was an Xs Max. Seeing that the guy was in a hurry and didn't want to disappoint, I called him and told him what happened and said if he wants the Max, he can take it at no additional cost. I was willing to settle the difference because it was his first time buying from us. I packaged it with a new premium charger because all our used phones are sent packaged in our branded box with a charger, and I sent it to him in Abuja. He later messaged that he has received the phone and truly appreciates it. After months of not receiving any complaints from him, it clearly indicates that he has received a fully functioning phone. It is in our policy that if you find anything faulty within one week, you can return it to us and either ask for a replacement or refund. What this means is that the cost of bringing it from Kano to Jos, the packaging and charger, and the delivery to Abuja are all a loss to me. But I didn't mind because at least I have satisfied him. Nine weeks later, while I was in Kano, I saw a call from an unknown number. When I picked up, he said it was him. He told me that the camera has started giving him problems. I told him it has been months since you bought it, but you can take it to any repair store and tell me how much you spent, and I will pay. He asked if I know anyone, and I sent him someone's number. The guy didn't pick; he texted and informed me and later called me. I told him to go to anyone he trusts and let me know the amount he spent. A few days later, I was stranded between Kaduna and Abuja on my trip from Kano to Abuja because my car engine failed. He called, and I didn't pick; I don't even know his number. Later in the night, I received his messages on WhatsApp with a threat that he will make a video to tarnish the image of my business. Someone I was willing to help after months of buying a USED device from me is threatening me. I said he should go ahead because I can't entertain him anymore. In conclusion, a trade that I incurred a loss from is what some people are trying to justify as a scam. The beautiful part is I have made trades with hundreds of people here, and I would love two more people to come out and present a case in which they are still using a device I sold to them that is faulty and they contacted me for a replacement or refund, and I didn't do it instantly. "The hypocrite will always look for faults" - Ghazali. Those that are looking for a fault in me can justify something as woke as this; it doesn't matter. This is my own side and will no longer entertain him anymore. For those that believe in me without hearing from me, thank you so much.

A few years ago Jessi asked me if I would be interested in being her next co-host for the Bardown Beauties Podcast. People have always asked me how that came to be and this is how. I knew of Jessi when I started working with the Wild, and interacted with her initially when I was a guest on the podcast and then she and Alexis were guests on the show I hosted for the Wild at the time. But, the first summer I spent working for DaBeauty League was where I went from knowing Jessi as a professional and got to know Jessi on an incredibly personal level. This was the stuff we did that summer. We talked about life, we had fun, and she signed herself up to get some of her hair shaved off. This is one of the videos I’ve watched over and over these last few days because this is where it really all started and I’m forever grateful for it.

I asked Hagens if any of the Bruins reached out to him after he signed, and he said: "Yes, Charlie McAvoy reached out and he sent a really nice text. Him being the Long Island guy too, it was something that was really cool, but I haven't looked at my phone much since."

#SEONGHWA about meeting DPRIAN 😭🩶 ⭐️: Yesterday, I finally had time in my schedule.. actually, more than my schedule permitting it, hyungnim had time in his and he also happened to be in LA, so I went to see him. He said he wanted to show me around his studio and somehow everything just lined up… so I became a successful fan! Yesterday was actually the first time I got to meet him and he greeted me really warmly ㅎㅎ When I arrived to the practice room he was blowing bubbles, like this, to welcome me. So it was very ㅎㅎ very fun and heartwarming. He gave me a tour of the studio and ordered pizza for us to share. While we were eating, I asked him a lot of questions about things I was curious about, like music video behind stories and details about songs of his I love. You know the way we interpret a song differs depending on the listener, but I wanted to hear directly from him what kind of feeling he had when creating those songs. I wanted to hear the real stories from the person who made them, so I asked a lot of those kinds of questions. And it was really fascinating because what I had in mind was actually very similar to what hyungnim had intended. So that was very fascinating. He also told me so many kind and encouraging things… it really motivated me a lot, especially in what I’m doing now. So, ever since I came to the U.S. I was hoping I could meet him and get his autograph. I went all over the place trying to find a CD… but wow, everything was sold out! So eventually I was like, “Ah, it can’t be helped, I’ll just go without one.” I really like keeping physical albums from artists. For books too, e-books are great too, but there’s something special about being able to touch and feel a real book or album, you know? But then, just as we were saying goodbye, hyungnim said he had something for me and handed me the album himself. And then he said that he had left the message section empty on purpose because he was like “I wanted to write something after actually meeting you Seonghwa-ssi and seeing how I felt”. So just before I left, he wrote it down and the words were so beautiful. That really stayed with me. I too, when meeting others, used to write the messages in advance and bring them along, but now I feel like… if I ever get the chance again, I’d also like to write something based on my impression after the meeting and give it to them. There’s something really romantic about that. Also, watching him work (know about his artistic process) up close.. wow, it was just… really, really cool. So yeah I had such a happy, unforgettable time. He said he watched a lot of our performances too, and when he talked about the ones he’s seen, it made me so happy. On stage, he come across as super sexy, right? But when he was speaking, he was so humble and just kind… he just genuinely felt like a hyung. He was incredibly sweet and.. ah, am I like that too? ㅎㅎ I really had a good time. What stage he liked best? He said he’s seen my solo stage. I’m not sure if it was from Towards The Light or this current one (Skin), but he said it was really great to see how deeply I immersed myself in the concept. He also mentioned watching our Coachella stage, and he really enjoyed the sword-drawing part too. He shared a lot of really kind and encouraging words. To be honest, I had worried that my visit might feel like a burden or a hassle for him, but it was the opposite. He was so warm and welcoming, and apparently he was actually really curious about me too and really wanted to talk to me. So it ended up being a truly wonderful day. I came back full of inspiration. Of course, our biggest motivation is always ATINY but this became a new kind of motivation for me, a new inspiration.

Putin reads Pushkin at Valdai❤️ 'I have a volume of Pushkin on my desk at home. Sometimes I like to dive into it. Just yesterday I opened it, flipped through, and came across a poem about the Battle of Borodino. I read it and it made a strong impression on me. And it was as if he [Pushkin] told me: "Listen, you are going to the Valdai Club, take it with you, read to your guys what I think about this." I have the book with me. The poem is called "Borodino Anniversary."

It has always been one of my dreams to share with my favorite person in the world how I became his fan, and how I’m still here after 12 years. When I asked him if I could tell the story of how I became his fan 12 years ago, he said “Yes!” and the way he looked curious and eager to listen just made my heart so full. I told Kyungsoo that it all began when I came across a video of him way back in 2013 singing “Catching Feelings” by Justin Bieber. When I mentioned it, he gave me this sweet look of agreement and softly muttered “Ahhh~”, almost like he remembered that moment too.. From the very first time I watched it, I couldn’t help but be curious about him… I told him that he sounded so good and I really liked his voice (honestly, I find him cute too hehe) it was what drew me in and made me become a fan. I told myself that if I was ever given the chance, I’d love to hear him sing that song again, since we haven’t heard him sing it since 2013. I even tried requesting it with the sticky notes, handwritten banners during the Bloom FanCon and tweeted about it too way back, almost like I was manifesting it. So when I won this fansign, I promised myself I had to ask this time. So I asked if he could sing it for me. For a few seconds, he just stared at me blankly, and then he looked up as if he was trying to recall the song. Knowing that he might not remember the lyrics 😅, I told him that I have the lyrics with me and showed it in the screen. He looked at it, and then he started singing. In that moment, my heart completely sank… I was into the moment and I just couldn’t believe it was really happening right in front of me. This might sound like just a simple story, but to me, it was such a precious moment. Something I’ll always hold close to my heart. Meeting someone at such a young age and growing up with them throughout your youth... and who would’ve thought they’d end up having such a beautiful, positive impact on my life? I’m literally tearing up while typing this ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ. I was a little hesitant to share this at first, but it was such a beautiful moment. And honestly, you all have to hear how amazing he sounded, because he was just so, so good. 도경수씨 너무너무너무 감사합니다~ 🙇‍♀️❤️ first video credit to DOH HEART please do not re-upload

Phillies president Dave Dombrowski was asked if the team would consider acquiring a right-handed hitting first baseman at the trade deadline and moving Bryce Harper back to right field. "I don't think so. We haven't talked to him about it. I know he's always been very open minded to try to help the organization however he can. And I really don't contemplate it, because I really like the way he goes about his business at first base. One thing we wouldn't do is keep going back and forth. But I look at him as being our first baseman." (via Dave Uram)

My Clawdbot is literally like another employee that sits behind me I went through Twitter and found any trending posts for security concerns that people have been running into with Clawdbot I texted them all to Midir (my Clawdbot lol) and I told him to analyze it to see if we have any of the same problems But I found this really long thread, and I didn't wanna paste it all into Telegram, So I sent him the link, and said "Open it on your own Chrome browser on your PC and analyze it like we just were” I turned around IRL, and he literally had the tab open and was reading it From all of the research that we did, I had him compile any vulnerabilities that we had, propose a fix, and then fix them I also made him create a CRON so that you guys can feed it to your Clawdbot and make sure that you're also not open to the same vulnerabilities (this is a great basic check not a permanent fix) Full CRON github below:

🚨EMERGENCY PLEASE READ🚨 2,500 worth of belongs stolen. I can’t believe I’m saying this because I just found my bag yesterday. But I was robbed. I attended WrestleLIT™ at the SUBSTANCE. I asked a staff member if they could hold my bag as I didn’t want to carry it around as I just came from a show and just wanted to chill. They said they’d hold onto it, later in the night I asked if I could have my bag back and they said they couldn’t find it. I asked if it would be in lost & found and they said yes. At the end of the night they couldn’t find it but said to call back in the morning. The next day I get a notification from my air tag that my bag wasn’t at the substance anymore. But ACTIVELY traveling in Vegas. After hunting it down, it was in possession of a homeless man who when I confronted tried to attack me. After dealing with him i forced him to give me my ID cards and I made him walk me to where he dumped my stuff, only my AirPods and a shirt was left. He said he got my bag from someone else. ALL of my gear, including my boots & tights made in Japan is gone. Including all of my clothes & all of the money I made this weekend. This is the fault of the substance for putting my clothes OUTSIDE THE VENUE. I’m fucked and shattered.

To the greatest of all time Fun fact, the Hulkster spoke a bit of Japanese. I knew he wrestled and trained over there. When I talked to him about where he lived in Japan he told me with zero accent. So I asked him in Japanese if he could tell me a funny story. He answered in English but he said yeah brother I got loads of good stories from over there. Then he gave me a hilarious story about Andre the giant taking a dump on newspapers in his hotel because he was too big to get inside the bathroom! He at least knew japanese well enough to know what i asked him but would answer in English with a few Japanese words thrown in like Yabai, which is slang. As if the man could get any cooler. He was gonna let me lift with him and I had to check to see if he thought I was someone else because his restauraunt was under renovation and I thought he thought I was one of the workers. Nah, he was just that friendly. He was signing belts and talking to me like we'd known each other for years. This was 2019.

He at least knew japanese well enough to know what i asked him but would answer in English with a few Japanese words thrown in like Yabai, which is slang. As if the man could get any cooler. He was gonna let me lift with him and I had to check to see if he thought I was someone else because his restauraunt was under renovation and I thought he thought I was one of the workers. Nah, he was just that friendly. He was signing belts and talking to me like we'd known each other for years. This was 2019.

I would only blame myself if someone kept taking food off of my plate and eating it. It’s because I didn’t set clear boundaries at all. To be honest I couldn’t even be mad about this because it would be my fault this even happened. But you know very well I’m going to learn my lesson. She obviously is very comfortable doing this, he doesn’t seem to be firm about not letting her do it, the only one he can be mad at is himself. I think he will think twice about continuing to let her get away with it. Years ago, my brother used to do this to me and when I confronted him he laughed but he never stopped doing it, it got old really quick, I was annoyed because it felt like a bullying tactic. It got to the point one day that i had had enough, I made my plate and I dumped a bunch of salt into it knowing he was going to try to eat my food. After one bite he spit it out and he learned his lesson. He never did it again. But he still got mad I did it. Personally I think he was more mad he got caught if anything. I think a simple solution is to double order, that way if someone eats all my food I still have a back up, that could work right? But a part of me feels like that shouldn’t even be necessary. What would you do if someone kept eating off your plate? Would you put your foot down or just stay silent in hopes they don’t do it again. I think I am going to start just smoking more meat on the grill and keeping that up. I always make so much and if people wanna have some I still have plenty.

Samuel L. Jackson explains how he landed the role of Jules in Pulp Fiction, and what it was like seeing the film for the first time on the big screen: “Pulp Fiction and I came together in a very strange kind of way. I remember auditioning for Quentin for Reservoir Dogs in New York (for the role of of Detective Jim Holdaway, Mr. Orange’s police contact). And apparently I didn't get that role. But I was at Sundance the year that he screened it for the first time. I was sitting there and I watched that movie - I was awed by it. I mean, there were people running up the aisles when Michael Madsen was cutting the cop's ear off. People were going, "Oh my God, this is horrible!" All these “auteurs” were running out of the theatre. I was like, "This is good. This is happening. This is different." So after the film, I walked up to Quentin and said, "This film's amazing, man. It's great." And he looked at me and said, "Hey! How'd you like the guy who got your part?" And I was amazed that he even remembered who I was - but he remembered me. A year or so later, I got a phone call saying Quentin Tarantino wants to have dinner with you, because he'd seen Jungle Fever and he liked that Gator character. When we had dinner, we were sitting there talking. We started talking about Hong Kong films and cartoons and foreign movies and obscure things that we watched, horror movies. We found out we liked the same kind of stuff. And he told me he was writing this thing, and he was writing this part with me in mind. He was going to send it to me. I went off to do another film. I was in the backwoods of Virginia somewhere doing a film, and the script came. A little plain brown wrapper from Jersey Films. And Jersey's got these gangster images on the logo. And it said, "If you show this script to anybody, two guys named Ernie and Luigi will come and break both of your legs." Whatever. I went, "Yeah, right." So I sat down and read it. Boom. I read this thing. It's like, "Oh my God. This is awesome." And then I said to myself, "Nobody writes a script this good. There's no way that this script is as good as I thought it was." I closed it. I opened it again. I read it immediately. Okay. This is great - If whoever produces this film lets him shoot exactly what I just read, if they stay away from it, they don't try to edit any of this stuff out - this is going to be a great film. It's going to be kind of audience-specific, because I like that kind of stuff. I have friends that I knew would like it. It was a generational kind of film. I never thought it would cross over and do all this stuff. We shot it. We had a great time doing it. And the first time I actually saw the film was at the Cannes Film Festival. That night, it screened, and I was sitting there watching the film. The audience was loving this movie, loving it. About halfway through, I realized there were subtitles at the bottom of it. So I said, "Hey, these people are reading it, and they're getting it. This might be special. This really might be something special." And actually, by the time it was over, there were tears running down my face. I was just so pleased that I was part of that particular film… I never felt that satisfied, and that kind of full about a performance and about being part of something as I was in that particular moment.” Quote comes from an Interview with the American Film Institute 2010

“He can’t hear or speak - how can he work in the kitchen?” Last month, someone I knew from my hometown sent me a CV, asking if he would be a fit in the RCP kitchen. His name was Vipin. Deaf-mute by birth, he was working as a staff cook in a hotel. I will be honest, I was concerned as to how he would fit in the hectic and fast pace of the kitchen. But something in me said otherwise. It was my heart. Without any hesitation, I called up my Head chef at RCP Kochi and asked him to set up a trial for Vipin - and guess what happened? The 25-year-old shocked everyone in the kitchen!❤ Committed, neat, disciplined and calm - it was as if it was second nature to him. Whatever we threw at him, he handled it with great poise and maturity. The very next day, he joined our family at RCP Kochi.💕 Today, he is a brother to the 30-odd chefs working in the kitchen. They cook together, smile together, strive together and learn together. When I met him, I only told him one thing: “As long as this restaurant exists, you can call this home.” I don’t know if he understood it or not, but he held my hands tightly and looked at me. The moment I saw his eyes, I knew. I knew my heart was right - this boy was special. Food has no language. You don’t need eyes, you don’t need ears. - all you need is a heart filled with passion for feeding people love. Vipin, you are an inspiration to me, for the entire RCP family. We’re all here as your sound and words, for as long as you need us. So happy for you, brother!😍

Asked to reflect on navigating a “hellish” public breakup, Perrie acknowledges that she receives criticism for answering questions about it, “[but] I’m like, ‘But it really affected me massively’”: “People are gonna hate me talking about it… I can’t catch a break. If I talk about this, they’re like: ‘Why are you talking about it?!’ But anyway, shut up! Yeah, [it’s my life]. When you go through heartbreak, it is hellish. You can’t eat, you can’t sleep, you feel horrendous. You don’t feel good enough and you feel like you’ve been left for something better, or whatever it is… Then what makes it even worse is, I feel like the world was then looking at me, laughing at me. I felt embarrassed; I felt horrified. I had serious breakdowns. I did. Because it wasn’t just the heartbreak I was dealing with. I was dealing with everybody looking at me, and I felt ridiculed. I just couldn’t cope with it; I hated it. I was breaking down in performances, which isn’t like me at all. I was crying constantly. I think I was depressed… I know that sounds ridiculous! But I think it was this plus this plus this, and everything on top. It was like, I had to be there for the girls; I had to be switched on; I had to power through for Little Mix – but I also just wanted to be left the fuck alone. But I also was getting followed every two seconds and asked about it 24/7, and it was the headlines, it was everywhere, and it was a lot! And this is the thing – when people are like, ‘Stop talking about it!’ I’m like, ‘But it really affected me massively’.”

On this day, 61 years ago, Sidney J. Furie's "The Ipcress File" (1965) was released in the U.K. On the first day of shooting, director Sidney J. Furie gathered the cast and said, "This is what I think of the script." He then set it on fire. Michael Caine on the incident: "The driver picked me up for the first day of shooting and asked me if I was an actor in the movie, and if I had read Len Deighton’s book. When I told him I was the lead in it, he told me, ‘The whole thing is a load of rubbish, isn’t it?’ Then, when I arrived on set, Sidney had everyone gather around. He asked if anyone had any matches, and I smoked at that time, so I handed mine over. Sidney took the script, lit the match, looked at everyone and said, ‘Here’s what I think of this script’ and set the match to it. That was his copy of the script, so he asked if anyone had another copy to consult after he had burned his own, so I gave him mine. But it was a gesture, an illustration. It was a hell of a way to be christened into being the lead in a film." Sidney J. Furie on the reason for the movie's peculiar style: "I was very depressed always when we started shooting, thinking that it was going to be really lousy and I didn’t know what to do, so I told myself I would come up with a style of shooting that is different. I put shoulders across the screen, I shot up at things, I shot down, just to make it different, to give it ambiance. It was done out of insecurity, with a little cognac spiked in my morning coffee to give me courage." ("Sidney J. Furie: Life and Films", Daniel Kremer, 2015)
