satoshi never existed. nobody writes code like that. not that clean, not that surgical. the early bitcoin codebase doesn’t read like code from some anonymous guy on the internet. bitcoin's early codebase looks like it was handed to us. the whitepaper came out six weeks after the 2008 crash. that's not enough time to dream up a working distributed consensus system, let alone build one. then there’s secp256k1. not secp256r1, the curve everybody used. k1 was obscure, weird, and a terrible choice if you were just following convention. but it also happened to be one of the hardest to backdoor. and then satoshi disappears. roughly a million btc, untouched. people don’t walk away from that kind of money unless the money was never the point. because maybe bitcoin was never just money. what it actually did was create a global incentive to build compute. millions of people, in every country, pouring capital into hardware and electricity to chase block rewards. no state could have coordinated it that fast. no company could have justified it. a protocol paying out internet money gets people moving. then nvidia happened. the same GPUs pushed into the world for mining turned out to be perfect for large-scale parallel compute. the same hardware appetite bitcoin created ended up helping make modern deep learning possible. bitcoin launches in 2009. imagenet breaks things open in 2012. three years. bitcoin was the bootloader. and we’ve been running the install script.

Winston had been returned to the shelter three times before the Abbotts came for him. He was an old shar-pei, all wrinkles and gray whiskers, about 11 years old. Every family that took him home brought him back within a month. He was too old, too slow, and too set in his ways for most people. One family even said he was depressing to have around. By the time the Abbotts saw his photo online, the shelter staff had almost given up hope that anyone would choose him. Ray and Carol Abbott were in their late 60s and had just lost their own dog after 14 years together. Friends told them to get a puppy. Something young. Something with plenty of years ahead. Instead, they drove an hour to meet the old shar-pei nobody wanted. Carol says she knew the moment she saw him sitting quietly in the back of his kennel. That first night, Winston couldn't settle. He kept getting up to make sure Ray and Carol were still there. He'd walk to the bedroom, look at them sleeping, lie back down, then twenty minutes later he'd do it all again, as if he was waiting for someone to tell him it was over. Finally, Carol patted the foot of the bed. "Come on up, Winston. You're home now." He stood there for a long moment, almost like he couldn't believe she was talking to him. Then he climbed up slowly, turned around twice, and eased himself down against Ray's legs with a long groan that sounded more like relief than exhaustion. For the first time in months, Winston slept through the entire night. The Abbotts say he isn't going anywhere this time. And after being returned three times, Winston finally seems to believe them. Have you ever seen a dog realize it was finally home?

Video shows Palestinian driver plowing into British tourists in Crete A car driven by a 29-year-old Palestinian man spreads panic on a crowded street in Malia, Crete, as video footage captures the moment it hits tourists. The video, which became public on Saturday, records the seconds leading up to the hit that took place in Malia in the early hours of 19 July. Published by Creta Live, it shows the car’s dangerous path through a busy street packed with people at the height of summer, culminating in a collision with tourists. Crowds were out on the street and in the bars when the vehicle appears amid the throng. The driver — the 29-year-old Palestinian — is seen making dangerous maneuvers. As he drives along the road, he first swerves sharply to the right. People scramble and run to get out of the way. He then turns left and collides with a British couple who were standing talking, unaware. The 41-year-old British woman suffered a broken leg. Her partner is more fortunate and sustains less serious injuries. The vehicle’s wild path angers some people in the crowd. Once they realize what has happened, they react with shouts and gestures of disapproval, and one person kicks the car involved. After several days of investigation, the authorities identified the owner of the car as a 29-year-old Palestinian resident of Heraklion. He faces a felony criminal charge. During the preliminary investigation, he had confessed that he was the driver and that he had been under the influence of alcohol. However, when he appeared before the examining magistrate in Heraklion, he claimed he was not the person driving. He said the vehicle only came into his possession 23 days before his arrest — that is, after the incident. He attributed his earlier confession to a misunderstanding caused by a language barrier. The 29-year-old was released under restrictive conditions, including the surrender of his driving license and the vehicle’s registration documents.
