Protesters Turn Hostile on Camera Then Lost Control When I Asked Questions I went to Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens to see a protest calling for the cancellation and deplatforming of Kiffness ahead of his December concert. The plan was simple. Ask questions, hear people out, and understand why a small...

I want to preface this with the following: I know that streaming in public is going to cause passersby to be curious, ask what you're doing, or even ask to be on camera. I am not opposed to this, and I understand that filming in public is opening myself up to situations like this. But I also try to be low-key and keep others out of frame while I am doing my IRL streams. I try to make it clear that I am not trying to be a "spectacle" type of IRL stream. Now for the context of this clip. I was IRL streaming at the mall and was being followed and harassed by a group of about 6 teenagers the entire time I was there. In this clip, you can hear them screaming because they knew I was coming and they wanted to cause a scene. You can also hear them yelling at me saying "let me be on your twitch". They then proceeded to hunt me down the rest of the time I was at the mall. I've been IRL streaming for three years and this week I have experienced more harassment from people (exclusively teenagers) than I have in the past three years combined. I understand that a lot of kids are being exposed to live streaming, and it's probably exciting to them to see a streamer in the wild, but when did kids become so rude and demanding? I know I'm an adult and they're just kids, but it's still unnerving to be followed and yelled at by a group of people regardless of their age.

I’ve been asking the questions they desperately didn’t want asked. Why were they so against CCTV in taxis? Why were drivers allowed to be licensed hundreds of miles away? Why did they protect loopholes that put children at risk? Now the government’s own report confirms exactly what I’ve been saying: 🚖 Taxis were used to move and traffic children for abuse. 📉 96% of taxi licences in one area went to out-of-area drivers. ⚠️ “Unacceptable that local areas are unable to oversee and account for taxis on their streets.” ⚖️ “Drivers who are unscrupulous can apply to a lax neighbouring borough.” They resisted cameras because cameras would have exposed what was really happening. I was called extreme. I was smeared. But I told the truth. Victims have waited too long for justice and those who covered this up should be held to account. This isn’t over. Not by a long way. #JusticeForSurvivors #CSE #CoverUp #IWasRight

🚨 THREAD: Why I started investigating Mayor Zohran Mamdani (and why this isn’t going away) Watch this first ⬇️ 1/ Let me be very clear. I didn’t go looking for this story. This started with ONE simple question: Where did a donation actually go? 2/ Money that was supposed to go to a nonprofit in Astoria, Queens… …was allegedly redirected somewhere else. So I asked questions. Like anyone should. 3/ And instead of transparency? I got THREATS. Not from the Mayor. Not from the nonprofit. From a MUSIC PRODUCER. 4/ Let that sink in. A random person with no official role felt bold enough to intimidate me… Over questions about MONEY. Why? 5/ Ask yourself this: Why would anyone be angry about someone asking where THEIR donation went? Why the pressure? Why the silence? 6/ That’s when I knew— This isn’t just about one donation. This is about something bigger. 7/ I was actually contacted about this last year. At the time, I didn’t act on it. Now I understand why it was brought to me. 8/ The more I look into this, the more questions come up. And the reactions I’ve received? Only confirm I’m on the right track. 9/ I’m not backing down. If you have nothing to hide, questions shouldn’t be a problem. 10/ Watch the video. Share it. Ask questions. Because I don’t think this story ends here. JD Vance please look into the nonprofit food distributions in Queens and the Bronx! JD Vance

Charlie Kirk never got to see America’s 250th birthday. So, in his honor, watch him shut down the typical liberal “stolen land” argument. A college student confronts Kirk and says Americans are living on “stolen land” taken from the Mexicans. Kirk asks who the Mexicans stole it from, then expertly turns his own words against him. By the end, everyone is cheering for America. Watch how this one plays out. STUDENT: “I want to acknowledge the fact that we are right now on stolen land and that we are on indigenous land and that we are on original Mexican land right now.” KIRK: “I love this stolen land argument.” STUDENT: “…I really make it a point to notice that I’m on stolen land at all times, especially when we think about things like Manifest Destiny.” KIRK: “Who did the Mexicans steal the land from?” STUDENT: “Actually, the Mexicans were there originally in Texas…” KIRK: “Wrong. They stole it from lots of Indian tribes… Texas was not indigenously Mexican… there was the Cherokee. There were many different Native American tribes there. So Mexico was participating in Manifest Destiny at the behest of the Spanish crown.” [Student acknowledges Kirk is right] KIRK: “At some point, you have to believe in self-determination. If you can win the land, it’s yours. That is what built the West.” STUDENT: “I can agree with that.” KIRK: “So instead of a land acknowledgement… you should have a gratitude acknowledgement. ‘Praise God, I live in America! I’m glad!’ A gratitude acknowledgement would be nice.” [Crowd erupts] Charlie would have loved to experience America’s 250th birthday more than anyone. He defended America on campuses exactly like this one until the day he died. The least we can do is carry his message forward. Rest in Peace, Legend.

Pi was built when there were already agent harnesses around. Here’s why Mario Zechner(Mario Zechner), found them suboptimal and built Pi, a minimalist self-modifying agent: #1 - Mario initially was a believer in Claude Code: "I was a believer in Claude code because they were the first that packaged agentic search up in a really compelling package. And at the time that fit my workflow really well. Everything around the LLM was kind of nice and tidy and easy to understand. I was super happy. I was proselytising Claude code." #2 - Reverse engineering Claude Code highlighted the degradation that Mario felt as a user: "I personally like simple tools that are stable and that I can rely on. Even if they have non-deterministic parts, all the deterministic parts should be as stable as possible. That was just not the experience with Claude Code around summer 2025. They would take away your control of the context. They would inject stuff behind your back, which is bad. Then, your workflows stopped working because there's now a system reminder that you don't even see in the UI that would modify the behaviour of the model. They would also do this to the system prompt. I built a little service where I can track the progression or evolution of the system, prompt and tool definitions and, with every release, it was messing with stuff. That just messed with my workflows and I don't appreciate that." #3 - PI was built with an appreciation for simple and reliable tools: "If I commit to a development tool, I want it to be a stable, reliable thing like a hammer. I don't want my hammer to break a different spot every day. That's terrible. We need somebody who goes the full velocity kind of way. But I don't want to work with a tool like that."

Deleting yourself from the internet is possible, and here’s how: When I began learning OSINT, the first thing I did was search for my online presence 🔍. I was shocked by the amount of information I found. To reduce my digital footprint, I started by deleting unused accounts, photos, and posts. Some websites make it challenging to delete your account or remove personal information ⚠️ One of the best resources I found was JustDeleteMe, a directory of direct links to delete your account from various web services. Here’s how to use JustDeleteMe: 1. Visit JustDeleteMe 2. Type the name of the website from which you want to delete your account 3. Click on “view info” 4. Follow the instructions to remove your account 🗑️ I highly recommend conducting an OSINT investigation on yourself first. This helps you understand how people use the internet and what information might be interesting to an OSINT investigator 👀 Additionally, I recommend using Google Alerts to monitor any search results that might contain your or your client’s information. In a future post, I’ll share how to use Google Alerts to gather information about individuals or companies. ____________________________ P.S. ♻️ Repost if you found this helpful.

👀 I used OpenAI's Code Interpreter to make Flappy Bird 🐦in 7 minutes: Code Interpreter/GPT-4 for code generation. Pre-existing or AI-generated assets for graphics. --- Here's how to make the game in only 6 steps: (1): Enter the following prompt: "write p5.js code for Flappy Bird where you control a yellow bird continuously flying between a series of green pipes. The bird flaps every time you left click the mouse. If the bird falls to the ground or hits a pipe, you lose. This game goes on infinitely until you lose and you get points the further you go". (2): Use generative AI or existing game assets and spirits. I searched "flappy bird assets" on Google and used the first link, a GitHub repo with pngs from the original Flappy Bird. (3): Use this prompt to link assets to the code: "Please generate the entire file again based on the fact I'm using a unique background, spirits for the bird, and pipes. Here is the list of assets I'm using: [list of file names]." Code Interpreter should modify the code accordingly to include the list of file names. (4) Make an account OpenProcessing -> create a sketch -> paste in the code generated by Code Interpreter -> upload in-game assets from step (2). (5) (Optional) Ask ChatGPT to make changes to improve the in-game experience e.g., adding a high score, restarting the game when the bird dies, etc. Copy the new code into your OpenProcessing sketch and reload the game. (6) If something doesn't work, ask GPT4 to fix it. Copy and paste the error message and ask it to regenerate the code. --- Bonus Tips: - Iteratively test code. Each time you make a change using Code Interpreter, test the updated code by playing the game so you catch new bugs early. - Learn programming by asking questions: "Act as a senior programmer very good at explaining concepts to a beginner. Tell me how gravity works in this game and how you used code to make this happen."Code Interpreter/GPT4 for code generation. Download Pre-existing assets or generate new images for graphics. Excited to see what you make!

My song and video, "Spring of Eighteen-Twenty" is now live. Most people know the story of Joseph Smith’s First Vision from the official 1838 account found in the Pearl of Great Price. But did you know Joseph actually left four different firsthand accounts during his life? Each one was written to a different audience, and each contains unique details that most of us rarely hear. For my new song, "Spring of Eighteen-Twenty," I didn’t want to choose just one version. I wanted to weave them all together into a single, chronological experience. Here is the history hidden in the lyrics: The Physical Struggle (Verse 1) In the famous 1838 account, Joseph describes a "thick darkness." But in his 1835 journal entry, he adds visceral physical details: His tongue swelled in his mouth so he could not speak. He heard footsteps walking up behind him. Lyric: "Knelt upon the ground to pray, but my tongue began to swell / Footsteps walking up behind me..." The Angels (Verse 2) We usually picture just the Father and the Son. However, the 1835 account explicitly states, "I saw many angels in this vision." Lyric: "And a host of many angels, surrounding them in flame." The Forgiveness of Sins (Verse 2) The earliest account (1832) wasn't about starting a church—it was about Joseph’s soul. In this version, the Lord tells him immediately that his sins are forgiven. It’s a tender, personal moment often lost in the later institutional retellings. Lyric: "One looked down and called me Joseph, said 'My son, thy sins are gone.'" The "Exact" Resemblance (Verse 2) The 1842 Wentworth Letter adds a fascinating visual detail: the two Personages "exactly resembled each other in features and likeness." Lyric: "In the fire I saw them standing, two who looked exactly same." The Future Promise (Verse 3) In the 1842 account, Joseph isn't just told the churches are wrong; he is promised that "the fullness of the gospel" would be made known to him in the future. It wasn't just a rejection of the old, but a promise of the new. Lyric: "Wait a while and I will show you, fullness of the truth to come." The Result By combining the 1832 (Redemption), 1835 (Angels & Struggle), 1838 (The Warning), and 1842 (The Promise), the story becomes fuller. It moves from a terrifying physical battle to a moment of personal forgiveness, and finally to a prophetic calling. "Spring of Eighteen-Twenty" is my attempt to capture the whole picture and I hope it can help spread the truth of Joseph's experience and the restoration of the gospel of Jesus Christ. The song is also available on YouTube, Spotify, and Apple Music. YouTube Link: Spotify Link: Apple Music Link:

Just fix what your promised and stop the talking… When I tell you these NDC party and government are a scam, believe cos I know what I am talking about. A few weeks to elections, they together with their friends like Osagyefo Oliver Barker-Vormawor calling for a ban on small scale mining. I disagreed and I still disagree today cos I don’t think it’s a strategy that provides long term solution. The NPP government placed a 20months ban on small scale mining between April 2017 - December 2018, it worked temporarily until it was lifted and we went back to ground zero. Ban isn’t a sustainable strategy, it has been tried before and a new approach is needed. The NDC and their friends insisted the ban was the way to go and they went ahead to actually make a 120 day social contract with Ghanaians to ban small scale mining. Today, they are in government and the NDC are running away from the same thing they fought me on but insisted was the way to go. The people are simply calling on you to do as promised. Your call now! And Guess what, their political allies who were on streets for weeks in the name of freedom fighters and insisted on a ban are today demonstrating and no longer calling for the ban. Today, they are no more calling for a ban but baby sitting their Friends in Government and telling them to end Galamsey before their Presidential primaries. It’s 2025, and I have won the debate on the ban against small scale mining. If the NDC think it’s the way to go as they disagreed with me in the past, then they shld go ahead and implement the ban. The NDC have a founding history with enabling Galamsey and some of us knew it long ago, said it and it’s playing out in plain sight. Dear government, you asked for evidence and we have just served the evidence. Deal with Galamsey! #GalamseyEnablers

‼️🚨 BREAKING: Meta's AI feature let attackers hijack Instagram accounts for days with nothing but a username. It was being A/B tested on a slice of users, and if you were in the test, you couldn't turn it off. Among the casualties: the official Obama White House account. The method: get on a VPN near the target's region, ask the Meta AI support agent to send a verification code to any email you control, relay that code back to the agent, and it hands over a password reset link. Without ID or human review. From there, the account is yours. The flaw lived in the AI's logic layer, which acted on recovery requests with no real identity checks. One researcher compared it to the Roblox AI assistant exploit from days earlier, where you needed a target's billing info. Instagram was easier: the username and a regional VPN were enough and victims reported sessions revoked and passwords changed with no email, text, or push alert at all. By the time it went public, the method was common knowledge in blackhat Telegram circles and had been used to allegedly hijack 100+ high-value accounts. Accounts hit: - obamawhitehouse (the archived official Obama White House account, ~2.4M followers. Hackers posted an AI-generated image captioned "The White House is under Shiites' control," plus cryptic anti-Trump and pro-Iranian Stories. Meta confirmed the hack and scrubbed it. - Premium short handles like hey and jowo, worth over $1M combined, stolen and flipped on Telegram. - albert (owned by Albert Renshaw), whose owner publicly reported being locked out and unable to reach Meta support. Meta has since patched it. There was no public acknowledgment.

This might be the best "AI Engineer" I've tried so far. ​ I'm an old school developer who started 30 years ago. I feel very uncomfortable letting AI take control of my code, but for the sake of science, I spent two hours building an application that took me weeks to build a couple of years ago. ​ I used Pythagora, a brand new tool backed by Y Combinator. They just released to the public. ​ Keep in mind that I use AI every day to write code, but Pythagora is something different: it's a tool that leads, and uses you—the human—as the copilot. ​ I go into more details in the video, but here is the TLDR; ​ 1. Holy molly! We've made a ton of progress on this front! This is way better than Devin when I tested it a few months back. ​ 2. Love the approach of generating a plan with sub-tasks before writing any code. ​ 3. The tools never tries to do too much: it tackles every small task one at a time, and gives you instructions so you test everything. ​ 4. It does exactly what you'd do when it gets stuck: writes a bunch of logs and uses those to correct itself. Pretty neat! ​ 5. It's fast. It runs locally. It's an extension to Visual Studio Code. ​ I'm impressed, but I don't think this tool is for me. ​ I'm not the type of developer who's ready to relinquish control. I felt I had no connection with the code because I didn't write it. It was not my code. ​ I know many people who don't care about this. I know many people who will get tremendous value out of Pythagora. I hope they keep pushing the limits, providing feedback, and helping this get to a point where old folks like me feel more comfortable using it. ​ Don't take my word for it. The best thing you can do is to give it a try and see how you feel using it. ​ Thanks to the team who built this, for all of the explanations and support, and especially, for sitting and listening to my dumb questions for 2 hours while I tested this.

A player at a casino was accused of being too good and kept winning, they forced him to return all of his chips and cashed him out and told him to leave, there were whispers that they thought he was card counting. I never been to any place where they forced you to do a return and sent you on your way. But I have heard of retail places doing that. When the customer tries to argue at the register they are like you know what, here take your money back and leave. Back when the PS5 came out I was desperate to get one for my kid too, I was searching online for those obscure local stores that had them. I found one in Rochester, NY. I placed the order and got a confirmation and a notification from my bank saying an amount was taken out by them. So I figured they had it and it was fine. A week later after I didn’t get it, I called and he said yes he still had it but he’s been busy and will ship it out asap. I was like ok cool, so another week went by and I called him again and asked what the hold up was. This time around the guy was quite nasty and told me I needed to be patient because he was dealing with some stuff. He then said “you are acting like you don’t want it!” Which was weird because if I didn’t want it I wouldn’t be checking on why I didn’t get it yet. Next day I wake up to a notification from my bank saying the amount taken was credited back to my account and it showed the retailers name. He cancelled my order and refunded my money. So I called again and he said I was harassing him and he rather not sell to people like me. At that point I was furious but what could I do. I was thinking maybe he didn’t have it all along, maybe he only listed it as a means of bringing attention to his store in hopes people browse and buy other items too. Either way the idea of a place of business saying they don’t want my business and giving me my money back and refusing service is ridiculous to me.

Peter Thiel’s advice to his younger self: "Value substance over status.” One of the resolutions I came up with a number of years ago was to always value substance over status, substance over prestige. And if I was giving my younger self advice on what to do or how to think about one's life, I probably would still go to Stanford, might still go to law school. But I'd ask a lot more questions: why I was doing these things? Too much of it was driven by prestige and status, and not quite enough about really the substance of trying to learn things. I sort of think of it as this sort of crazy rolling quarter life crisis, and a sort of culmination in this big New York law firm where from the outside everybody wanted to get in, from the inside everybody wanted to get out. I lasted seven months and three days. And when I left, one of the people down the hall said, it's so reassuring to see you leave, Peter. I had no idea it was possible to escape from Alcatraz. And all you had to do was go through the front door. But people's identities get so wrapped up in the things they compete for that it was inconceivable for people to actually do that. And then the question was, how had I ended up there? Why had I not thought about that more? And I think it was that I had taken too many of these shortcuts of valuing what was prestigious, what was conventional, over what I really wanted to do. So I think always substance over status.

🇮🇳An apology to all my readers, especially those from India Saturday, I was looking for videos of aircraft landing in the highest airports in the world. I googled for a video, found this on Reddit, from an Airport in Tibet, and shared it with the description. I should have been suspicious that reverse searches were not getting more videos of the place, and that the Reddit account from the post was from a deleted user. Anyway, this isn´t in Tibet, it´s in INDIA! This is actually Kushok Bakula Rimpochee Airport (VILH/IXL) in Leh, Ladakh. (On what could be salvaged from my goof, it is what I intended to show. The aircraft seen here is landing in one of the highest commercial airports in the world, sitting at over 10800 feet - over 3 kms up in the air!) I want to thank Captain The Joker for the help on this one, who also noted that only Captains are allowed to land here - it requires a special qualification to operate here Once again, sorry for my mistake, goods happen here and then, but this one was really far from the correct info (literally)
