Composer by Symphony: Completing the Liquidity Loop on Sei For the past several months we had been working on a key project in parallel with our core aggregator product. Introducing Composer, a bonding curve style launchpad natively on Sei. Why Symphony Built Composer Symphony is the first native DEX aggregator on the Sei blockchain. While there are currently no fees, our routing engine will eventually earn revenue through a commission on the savings difference (versus the most liquid DEX) every time a trade is executed, so healthy volumes and a wide range of tokens directly strengthen our long-term revenues and the networkโ€™s depth. While Sei boasts industry-leading finality, launching tokens here has remained a manual, fragmented process with a high technical barrier. Founders might also negotiate private deals, liquidity providers wait for improvised pools, and traders discover assets only after spreads have widened. Fewer launches mean less order flow โ€“ exactly where an aggregator needs growth. We now close the gap with the introduction of Composer which offers a turn-key, on-chain launch path that bootstraps liquidity via a deterministic bonding curve and graduates projects once they reach a meaningful depth. It also automatically lists graduating tokens on Symphony, which means every partner integration that uses Symphony will be able to access them. Composerโ€™s Mechanics -Launch fee: 2 SEI, filters spam while keeping entry friction low -Graduation threshold: 9001 SEI bonded, guarantees real depth before open trading -Creator pre-buy: up to 20% of supply permitted, aligns founders with public buyers -Pre-bonding fee: 1% on buys & sells, contributes to Symphonyโ€™s developmental growth -Initial bonding venue: DragonSwap, currently deepest order flow for miscellaneous tokens (more DEXs will follow) -Listing event: automatic Symphony inclusion at graduation, no manual exchange negotiations and instantly accessible by existing Symphony integration partners Partnership Incentives 1. SEIYAN Liquidity Boost SEIYAN on SEI, the leading OG memecoin on Sei, will commit part of its treasury to bond capital into select Composer pools, accelerating their journey to graduation. When those pools succeed, the tokens SEIYAN accumulated are airdropped to xSEIYAN stakers, dispersing fresh assets to a large, existing community and instantly creating expanded holdership. Composer projects get immediate depth; SEIYAN holders gain diversified exposure; the entire network benefits from heightened awareness. 2. SEIYAN Backed Rebate Every Composer-graduated token launches with a 1 basis point (0.01%) rebate paid in $SEIYAN, which was acquired by Symphonyโ€™s treasury to fund this campaign. 3. DragonSwap Integration Bonus To celebrate DragonSwap's token launch, graduation of a successfully bonded token from Composer will be exclusively traded on DragonSwap. Because of this, you will also receive an additional 1 basis point rebate (0.01%) in 2. โ€” the DragonSwap token. Together, these incentives shorten time-to-liquidity, amplify marketing reach, and create tangible economic incentives for every participant in the launch cycle. We also have intentions to expand the incentive program with additional rewards as more traction builds. Launch Timeline Closed-invite cohort begins closed testing deployments today (July 7, 2025) for selected invite-only users. These tests will not be made public nor intended to be publicly tradeable. Official open-alpha access for public release will be July 10, 2025. This is when tokens will be able to be launched by anyone on Sei on a live basis. Next Roadmap Items -Mobile support: optimized trading to cater to an increasing mobile audience -Multi-DEX support: automatic routing across every major Sei venue to minimize slippage -Turn-key staking: one-click contracts so graduates can reward holders through community building from day one via simplified single sided staking -Liquidity redeployment: optional turn-key yield strategies upon graduation -Additional integrations: possible API or direct integration with partners to access trading during the pre-bonding stage, such as through MILLI โšก's Telegram Trading Bot Early Access Reward Composer potentially transforms Seiโ€™s raw speed into a self-sustaining pipeline of new assets and trading volume. Join us at launch and help shape the next chapter in Symphonyโ€™s and Seiโ€™s growth story. Those who participate in the initial stages of Composer (in terms of both launching tokens and trading them during pre-bonding) will likely be factored into Symphonyโ€™s eventual token launch as part of a reward process. We expect hiccups and necessary optimizations so early participation is a critical process in ensuring our product becomes resilient and, of course, a fun experience. dApp Link and public access will become available on Thursday, July 10th, 2025.

๐Ÿ”ŠThis world is about to witness one of the most glorious fulfillment of prophecy ever spoken by Jesus Christ: THE RAPTURE OF HIS CHURCH! This is the very moment He has longed for since Calvary. A mystery He personally revealed 2,000 years ago to His disciples during a sacred, private eventโ€”and in the same way, it will take place again: a sudden, invitation-only event for His TRUE followers! The time to follow Jesus is NOWโ€” KEEP LOOKING UP! ๐Ÿ”ŽLet's take a quick look and see "how" Jesus talked about the rapture: (John 14) ๐Ÿ‘‰๐ŸผDuring the Passover meal, Jesus, after telling Judas, 'What you do, do quickly,' initiated an evening of unfolding profound mysteries. The first revelation: The Rapture of the Church. ๐Ÿ‘‰๐ŸผHe was talking to His disciples, not to Judas, Jews, or othersโ€”ONLY His disciples. He said to them: 'Love each other as I loved you,' highlighting the crucial quality of a true discipleโ€”to love His people, just as He did. ๐Ÿ‘‰๐ŸผHe continues by explaining that He is about to be taken, and wherever He goes, they cannot follow Him at the moment. However, He adds, "You shall follow Me afterward." Then He says: ๐Ÿ“–โ€œLet not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me. In My Fatherโ€™s house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and RECEIVE you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also.โ€ ๐Ÿ”“This was not a talk from someone who is about to die intended to make His friends/disciples feel better about his death. This is not a happy talk, to counteract the depression or sorrow they were feeling โ€” THIS IS A REVELATION! This is simple and straightforward, He is going to prepare a place for us to "take us" there! He revealed this new information in obedience to the Father. This was nowhere to be found in the Old Testament. This was meant to be in the New Testament, this is the Blessed Hope that Paul will talk more about it later on. ๐Ÿ‘‰๐ŸผOn this intimate night, just hours before His crucifixion, Jesus unveiled profound revelations: He is the Way, the Truth, and the Life; He is in the Father and the Father in Him; then He promised the Holy Spirit; He revealed the indwelling of the Father and Son in us; and He showed us the true vine, among others. And in the midst of all these revelations, He disclosed the Rapture of the Churchโ€”revealing this sacred mystery hidden for ages less than a day before He laid down His life, at the very final hour! Why do we know this is NOT His Second Coming? Let's read His ascension in Acts: ๐Ÿ“–" ...until the day in which He was taken up, after He through the Holy Spirit had given commandments to the apostles whom He had chosen.." Acts 1:1-2 ๐Ÿ“–"... while they watched, He was taken up, and a cloud received Him out of their sight. And while they looked steadfastly toward heaven as He went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel, who also said, โ€œMen of Galilee, why do you stand gazing up into heaven? This same Jesus, who was taken up from you into heaven, will so come in like manner as you saw Him go into heaven.โ€ Acts 1:9-10 Who was invited to this Ascension event?โ“ ๐Ÿ‘‰๐ŸผWere the unbelievers Sadducees, and Pharisees, present to witness Christ's ascension? NO! ๐Ÿ‘‰๐ŸผWere the representatives of Rome there? NO! ๐Ÿ‘‰๐ŸผWere the skeptics or the fence-sitters invited to look for just one more sign that Jesus was the Messiah in order to get them on board with the program? NO! ๐Ÿ’กTHE TRUTH IS: this invitation was reserved ONLY for His disciplesโ€”a private, invitation-only event, hidden from the world! Unlike the Second Coming, which every eye will witnessโ€”โ€œeven those who pierced Him, and all the tribes of the earth will mourn because of Himโ€ (Rev 1:7)โ€”the Rapture is sudden, personal, and reserved exclusively for those who belong to Him. ๐Ÿ”ฅLetโ€™s be perfectly clear: the Rapture of the Church is a doctrine introduced by JESUS Himself, not an invention of Tim LaHaye, Scofield, or John Nelson Darbyโ€”they only amplified what Jesus already revealed to His disciples. Do not let the enemy deceive you! ๐ŸŽบThis will be the glorious fulfillment of Jesusโ€™ own promise: He will return for His Church, His Bride, just as He ascended on the clouds before His disciples. In a sudden, majestic momentโ€”with the shout of the Lord, the voice of an archangel, and the trumpet of Godโ€”the dead in Christ will rise first, and those who are alive will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet Him in the air. This is the very hour Paul longed for until his last breath, the moment his prophetic words come to life: ๐Ÿ“–"For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord." 1 Thes 4:15-17 ๐Ÿ”Š Church! Jesus is saying to us, โ€œLet not your heart be troubled!โ€โ€”even as we live in the horrible lawlessness of these last days! He went to prepare a place for us, His Brideโ€”and that place is already ready! As He is about to carry us home, His joy and excitement far surpass anything we could ever feelโ€”He has been longing for this moment since the foundation of the world! Get your hearts, your minds, your very souls readyโ€”our time to leave this world and go Home is almost here! Soon, we will see Jesus face to face! KEEP PREACHING THE GOSPEL. KEEP LOOKING UP โ€”WEโ€™RE GOING HOME! ๏ธตโ€ฟ๏ธตโ€ฟ๏ธตโ€ฟ๏ธต๏ธตโ€ฟ๏ธตโ€ฟ๏ธตโ€ฟ๏ธตโ€ฟ๏ธตโ€ฟ๏ธตโ€ฟ๏ธต โš ๏ธ IF YOU ARE NOT IN CHRIST, TURN TO JESUS RIGHT NOW! Believe Jesus is the Son of God, who died on the cross for our sins, He was buried and resurrected during the third day, according to the Scriptures, so we can have eternal life with Him. The moment you believe in Him and that He died for your sins - you're saved, justified, sealed until the day of redemption, and rapture ready! The Holy Spirit will come to live inside of you - He will help you, guide you, change you, be with you FOREVER! ๐Ÿ“–"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life." John 3:16 ๐Ÿ“–"For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast."

Long Post: Happy Birthday Cameron Green The world almost never saw Cameron Green. But here he is, standing tall at 198 cm, both literally and in spirit... Before he could even take his first steps, life had already thrown him into a fight. Diagnosed with stage-two chronic kidney disease before birth, doctors once told his parents he might not live beyond the age of 12. Weekly hospital visits, constant ultrasounds, and strict dietary routines were as much a part of his childhood as his love for the game... While most players focus on tackling the opposition, Green often had to battle his own body; pushing through frequent cramps caused by his chronic kidney condition while still standing tall at the crease... And yet, the boy who was expected to remain small grew into a giant. Not just in height, but in heart, hunger, and humility... He never asked for special treatment. In fact, most around him didnโ€™t even know about his condition. Not even Justin Langer, who had known him since he was 15. Green just kept showing up. Quietly, consistently, determinedly... From becoming the youngest player to take a five-wicket haul in the Sheffield Shield to rebuilding himself into a reliable middle-order batter after injuries, Cameron Greenโ€™s journey is one of resilience and evolution... Since 2021, while batting in the middle order, he has scored 1143 Test runs at average of 39.4. That average climbs to an impressive 46 in outside home Tests. Many seasoned specialist batters have struggled to maintain even a 35 average during this same period... His bowling average of 34 during this period might not grab headlines at first glance, but it's actually better than that of Mohammad Siraj and Ben Stokes over the same timeframe... He is averaging close to 40 with bat in ODIs as well, and his T20 strike rate is touching 150, which is hard to believe for someone who once stitched a 116-run partnership for the last wicket with Josh Hazlewood on a green top, and went on to produce one of the finest innings of recent times with a masterful 174*. This is the same cricketer who fearlessly counterattacked the spinners of Pakistan and Sri Lanka on his very first away tour, delivering back-to-back crucial innings in Lahore and Galle to help Australia win two consecutive Tests in Asia... With the ball, he returned a bowling average of 15.7 in his first Ashes series, along with an economy of 2.54, which was better than even Cummins, Hazlewood, and Starc in that series... And all this while batting at number 6, then number 4, and now preparing for yet another role in a new position. But as always, Cameron Green will adjust. He will rise. A man whose kidneys may filter less, but whose spirit filters nothing; absorbing every setback, and turning it into fuel... The world hasn't seen the full version of Cameron Green yet. What we've seen is only the trailer; the main feature is still to come. And when it does, cricket may just find itself witnessing a once in a generation phenomenon who was never meant to make itโ€ฆ but chose to write his own script anyway...

Cerebras just IPOโ€™d and the stock already ran up over 100% (Save this). For the entire 70 year history of the semiconductor industry, every company on earth has followed the same process. You take a dinner plate sized silicon wafer, put hundreds of tiny chips onto it, and dice it up like a pizza. Nvidia does it this way, AMD does it this way, Intel has done it this way for six decades and everyone who tried to break that convention failed. Until Cerebras asked the most annoyingly obvious question in the industryโ€™s history, what if you just didnโ€™t cut it? The result is the Wafer Scale Engine, a single chip 56 times larger than Nvidiaโ€™s H100 and it fundamentally changes the physics of how AI inference works. The reason this matters is not the size, itโ€™s the bandwidth. Every time an AI model generates a single word, it has to reach into memory, pull weights, multiply them together, and produce a prediction and when youโ€™re running millions of concurrent sessions at once, the bottleneck is not raw processing power but how fast data moves between memory and compute. Nvidiaโ€™s H100 moves data at roughly 3 terabytes per second, while Cerebrasโ€™ WSE-3 moves data at 21 petabytes per second, roughly 7,000 times faster because memory and compute live on the same enormous piece of silicon and data barely has to travel at all. That gap is exactly why OpenAI went from 150 tokens per second on traditional GPUs to 2,000 tokens per second on Cerebras hardware, and why AWS integrated Cerebras into Bedrock to deliver roughly 5x more inference capacity in the same physical footprint. The macro setup is making the trade even more urgent. South Korea DRAM export prices recently jumped 35%, flash memory surged 47%, and SSD pricing spiked nearly 140% and every single one of those increases hits Nvidia-based infrastructure directly, because the H100 requires 80GB of the most expensive, most contested memory in the AI supply chain. Cerebrasโ€™ WSE-3 uses zero external HBM memory, baking 44GB of SRAM directly into the wafer itself which means as memory pricing goes parabolic, every CFO evaluating AI infrastructure is suddenly looking much more seriously at the architecture that sidesteps that cost entirely. The demand is already showing up in the backlog. Cerebras ended 2025 with $24.6 billion in remaining performance obligations for a company doing just over $500 million in annual revenue, that is a number that implies years of contracted growth already sitting on the books. The IPO was 20x oversubscribed, the price range was raised twice before listing, and shares opened 89% above their listing price on a $5.55 billion raise that made it the largest semiconductor IPO in history. The risks are real and worth naming. 86% of 2025 revenue came from two entities with UAE ties, U.S. revenue actually fell 34% to $187 million, and the $20 billion OpenAI contract is conditional, if Cerebras misses delivery milestones, OpenAI can terminate and trigger repayment demands on a $1 billion loan facility. And yet the market is valuing Cerebras at roughly 91x trailing revenue, richer than Nvidia, AMD, and Arm combined. What investors are betting on is not that Cerebras beats Nvidia, it is that the inference supercycle is large enough to support an entirely different architecture optimized for a different workload, and that $24.6 billion in contracted backlog converts to diversified revenue before the market starts asking harder questions. CEO Andrew Feldman said this took a decade of late nights to get right, everyone who tried to copy it failed and given that the entire inference economy is now running through exactly the bottleneck Cerebras was built to eliminate, the market is starting to believe him.

THE SEVEN SEALS The same day the Church is taken out of this world at the Rapture, judgement begins. As it was in the days of Noah, the same day Noah entered the ark, the judgement began. The same day Lot left Sodom, fire came from heaven and destroyed them all. So it is, on the same day that the Church leaves this world, at the Rapture, the Judgment begins. SEAL 1 - The Conqueror (The Revealing of the Antichrist). The Man on the White Horse. Rev 6:2 And I saw, and behold, a white horse, and he that sat thereon had a bow; and there was given unto him a crown: and he came forth conquering, and to conquer After the rapture of the Church,2 Thess.6v7 the first thing that happens in the earth is that the antichrist is revealed; a white horse and its rider. This is not the Lord Jesus- i.) โ€œHe that sat on the horse had a bowโ€, Jesus doesnโ€™t use a bow, when you see Jesus, He uses a Sword. ii.) โ€œA crown was given to himโ€- Jesus is King of Kings; He gives crowns. Rev.6v2 iii.) โ€œHe went forth conquering and to conquerโ€. The Lord Jesus is only going to battle against the Nations at the second coming, which is not yet So this is not Jesus, this is the antichrist. He had a bow, without arrows. He would conquer nations without firing a shot, he would conquer nations with peace; they would give their nations to him. Daniel 8:23-24 describes a powerful king who will arise at the end of a period of time, characterized by transgression and wickedness. This king will have a fierce appearance, understand dark schemes, and wield mighty power, not by his own means, but through extraordinary destruction. He will succeed in what he does, destroying the mighty and the holy people. SEAL 2- Conflict on Earth: Killings, Murders (The Man on the Red Horse) Daniel 6v3- 4 When He opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature saying, โ€œCome [b]and see.โ€ 4 Another horse, fiery red, went out. And it was granted to the one who sat on it to take peace from the earth, and that people should kill one another; and there was given to him a great sword. Once the Church is gone at the Rapture, no more peace on the earth, there would be killings. Matt.24v7,10 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines, [a]pestilences, and earthquakes in various places. 8 All these are the beginning of sorrows. 9 โ€œThen they will deliver you up to tribulation and kill you, and you will be hated by all nations for My nameโ€™s sake. 10 And then many will be offended, will betray one another, and will hate one another. Rev.13v15 15 He was granted power to give breath to the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak and cause as many as would not worship the image of the beast to be killed. SEAL 3- Scarcity (Inflation and Famine) The Man on the Black Horse Daniel 6v5-6 When He opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, โ€œCome and see.โ€ So I looked, and behold, a black horse, and he who sat on it had a pair of scales[c] in his hand. 6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four living creatures saying, โ€œA [d]quart of wheat for a [e]denarius, and three quarts of barley for a denarius; and do not harm the oil and the wine. Lamentations 4v4-10 AMP [4] The tongue of the infant clings To the roof of its mouth because of thirst; The little ones ask for food, But no one gives it to them. [5] Those who feasted on delicacies Are perishing in the streets; Those reared in purple [as nobles] Embrace ash heaps. [6] For the [punishment of the] wickedness of the daughter of my people [Jerusalem] Is greater than the [punishment for the] sin of Sodom, Which was overthrown in a moment, And no hands were turned toward her [to offer help]. [7] Her princes were purer than snow, They were whiter than milk [in appearance]; They were more ruddy in body than rubies, Their polishing was like lapis lazuli (sapphire). [8] Their appearance is [now] blacker than soot [because of the prolonged famine]; They are not recognized in the streets; Their skin clings to their bones; It is withered, and it has become [dry] like wood. [9] Those killed with the sword Are more fortunate than those killed with hunger; For the hungry pine and ebb away, For the lack of the fruits of the field. [10] The hands of compassionate women Boiled their own children; They became food for them Because of the destruction of the daughter of my people [Judah]. Ezekiel 4v10-12, 17 AMP [10] The food you eat each day shall be [measured] by weight, twenty shekels, to be eaten daily at a set time. [11] You shall drink water by measure also, the sixth part of a hin; you shall drink daily at a set time. [12] You shall eat your food as barley cakes, having baked it in their sight over human dung.โ€ [17] because bread and water will be scarce; and they will look at one another in dismay and waste away [in punishment] for their wickedness. If you think there are economic problems right now in the world, this is nothing compared to what is coming. No one would be able to solve the economic problem then, not even the antichrist. He would make promises, but would fail. This is going to be a very terrible time on earth. At this point the peace treaty is broken and the next three and a half years begins SEAL 4- Widespread Death on Earth (Death Released) A Pale(green) Horse with a rider called- Death, and Hell Followed. Rev.6v7 -8 7 When He opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature saying, โ€œCome and see.โ€ 8 So I looked, and behold, a pale horse. And the name of him who sat on it was Death, and Hades followed with him. And [f]power was given to them over a fourth of the earth, to kill with sword, with hunger, with death, and by the beasts of the earth. These are the judgments of God, not even the actions taken by the antichrist. The world is being punished for their rejection of Jesus Christ. Killings with the sword, refers to war. Matt 24v21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.โ€ (KJV) The Fourth and Fifth Seals are in the second 3 and a half years, after the Peace treaty has been broken. 1 Thess. 5v3 -4 For when they shall say, peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape. At this time the antichrist enters into the temple in Jerusalem and from then on, fierce persecution begins. SEAL 5- The Cry of the Tribulation Saints (Killed for their Faith) Rev 6v9-11 When He opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain for the word of God and for the testimony which they held. 10 And they cried with a loud voice, saying, โ€œHow long, O Lord, holy and true, until You judge and avenge our blood on those who dwell on the earth?โ€ 11 Then a white robe was given to each of them; and it was said to them that they should rest a little while longer, until both the number of their fellow servants and their brethren, who would be killed as they were, was completed. When a godly man dies, he goes to heaven and his soul is without a body, but is clothed with a spiritual garment until the resurrection. At the rapture, those who were dead in Christ were raised up with a glorified body, and we that are alive and remain were caught and changed into that same glorified body. The tribulation saints who were slain for their faith, they gave their lives as a sacrifice to God, they refused to take the mark of the beast, and were killed. Their souls are seen in Heaven under the Altar, without their spiritual glorified bodies, hence their cry. Vr 11 the Lord told them to rest for a while until others to be killed like them also arrive. At this time too something happens, there is more preaching of the gospel ongoing in the earth, Evangelism intensifies. Rev.14: 14 And I looked, and behold a white cloud, and upon the cloud one sat like unto the Son of man, having on his head a golden crown, and in his hand a sharp sickle. 15 And another angel came out of the temple, crying with a loud voice to him that sat on the cloud, Thrust in thy sickle, and reap: for the time is come for thee to reap; for the harvest of the earth is ripe. Here the Tribulation Saints are Raptured, which is getting to the ending part of the tribulation period. #YLWSPECIALSSeason1Phase3 #RaptureModeActivated #RaptureReady #FirstFlightGang #YearOfCompleteness

โ€œThe highest instrument of the inner awakening of race is combat, and war is its highest expression.โ€ These words, from Julius Evolaโ€™s โ€œMetaphysics of War,โ€ express the core of what I regard as his most essential and enduring work. Nowhere else does Evola so fully unite the metaphysical principles of Tradition with the ethos of the warrior and the political destiny of Europe and the West. This book is not the romanticizing of bloodshed for its own sake, nor the crude militarism of modern ideology. It is the assertion that combat, rightly understood as contest, the agon, is the supreme path by which man may transcend his lower nature, awaken his inner race, and align himself with the eternal order that stands above the rise and fall of nations. Evola grounds this vision on two distinct but inseparable levels. The first is the profane, where war is the highest school of heroism, the most direct means of forming character. In war, men face the fact that everything they have, including possessions, comfort, and even life itself, can be taken in an instant. This confrontation with impermanence strips away illusions and forces detachment from all that is transient. It places life in its proper perspective, revealing the distance between what is temporary and what is timeless. For many, such moments of danger and loss bring a sudden awakening, a liberation from the grip of material attachments. The second level is the sacred, where war becomes a path to transcendence. Here Evola draws on the โ€œBhagavad Gita,โ€ the supreme text of the Aryan warrior tradition. Arjuna, the warrior prince, faces two wars: the lesser war, the outer conflict against his enemies; and the greater war, the inner battle against fear, weakness, and the passions that bind man to the merely human. Krishna instructs him that those he must fight are already destined to fall, that his task is to fulfill his duty without attachment to personal feeling or outcome, and that in doing so he becomes the instrument of a higher will. This is the essence of karma yoga, the path of action in the ancient Indo-European tradition, wholly removed from the modern, commercialized idea of yoga as mere stretching or relaxation. In its original sense, it is the disciplined fulfillment of oneโ€™s duty as a means of overcoming the self. Evola stresses that the outer war cannot be won without first winning the inner one, and that the true warrior is defined above all by his mastery over himself. For Evola, a man who conquers himself may never take up arms and still be a warrior in the highest sense, while a man who fights without inner mastery may win battles yet fail as a man of Tradition. Physical combat remains, however, the supreme opportunity for transformation, because in the face of death all masks fall away and a man must stand wholly present in his being. In this moment, the fear of death can be overcome and replaced with an active ecstasy, a state in which the individual transcends the limits of his personality and participates in the eternal. From this understanding follows Evolaโ€™s vision for a new European order. Such an order cannot be founded upon bourgeois comfort, sentimental nationalism, or the reduction of race to biological factors alone. It requires men who have stripped themselves of vanity, personal grievance, and dependence on material ease. These men must see reality without distortion, live simply but with conscious force, and be wholly committed to principles that outlast their own lives. Evola speaks of such men as those who โ€œcome from afar,โ€ men whose presence carries the dignity, clarity, and detachment of a warrior aristocracy. The essays that make up this volume, written between the 1930s and 1940s, were originally published individually in periodicals and only later collected and issued together as โ€œMetaphysics of Warโ€ by Arktos. They reflect a time of immense political upheaval, when Evola saw possibilities for the restoration of Europe but believed such efforts required a deeper transformation. His alternative was what he called โ€œsuper-fascism,โ€ meaning a worldview that rose above the limitations and superficialities of conventional fascism. By this he did not mean a more rigid or oppressive authoritarianism, but a political form inseparable from an inner revolution, a regeneration of spirit that would awaken the imperial virtues, the heroic ethos, and the deep racial memory within Europeans. The essays in โ€œMetaphysics of Warโ€ draw on the great warrior traditions of the Indo-European, Aryan world. The Aryan kshatriya bound to dharma, the medieval knight who fused martial skill with a code of chivalry, the Crusader who fought for a principle higher than any political allegiance, and the disciplined initiates of Mithraism all embody the same constants. The true warrior acts with courage and without hesitation. He possesses clarity unclouded by sentiment. He welcomes the trial of danger. He subordinates passion to principle. He chooses his comrades carefully, respecting only those who meet his standard. He holds to an instinctive sense of order and form. Above all, he practices detachment toward himself, toward possessions, and toward life itself, which grants him calm in uncertainty, the ability to begin anew after loss, and the indomitability to endure all trials. Evola places these virtues in the context of the Traditional doctrine of the four ages. The first age is ruled by the spiritual authority of the priestly caste. The second age is ruled by the warrior principle. The third age sees the dominance of the merchant, when the concept of the nation becomes material and democratic. The fourth is the age of the slave, the reign of quantity, when both priestly and warrior virtues are nearly extinct. This last age, the Kali Yuga, is the most degenerate, but for those capable of transformation it offers unique possibilities. The same forces that degrade the many can be used by the few to reach a higher state, if met with the right inner discipline. This is why Evola could still affirm the potential of modern warfare, despite condemning its mechanized and impersonal nature, a view shared in part by Ernst Jรผnger and others. In traditional combat, the warrior met his adversary face to face, and the contest contained both honor and the possibility of transcendence. Modern war, conducted by machines and managed by bureaucracies, robs combat of much of this. The soldier, significantly the soldier rather than the warrior, becomes an anonymous function within an industrial process. Yet for the man rightly prepared, even the disasters of modern conflict can strip life to its essentials, burn away the false, and reveal the unshakable core of the self. In our own time, politics has degenerated into managed disputes within mass democracy, and war is often waged by remote technology rather than by men in direct contest. The decisive battlefield has shifted. The total war of the modern age is fought within the soul of every man who would preserve his dignity, his form, and his identity in a world bent on dissolution. The enemy is not only the system that denies higher values, but the corrosion of will, clarity, and discipline that such a system fosters. โ€œMetaphysics of Warโ€ is therefore not merely a historical or philosophical study, but a summons to all still capable of rising above the detritus of this broken world. It calls for the forging of a warrior aristocracy able to wage both the inner and the outer war. It affirms that the man of Tradition fights not for material gain, not from instinct, and not from compulsion, but as an act of fidelity to an order that stands above life and death. For such a man, combat is not the destruction of life, but its elevation into the eternal. The restoration of a Europe worthy of its inheritance depends upon the creation of such men, for no lesser foundation will endure.

Here's why $NEAR is a no-brainer in 2025 ๐Ÿ‘‡ Everybody loves NEAR Protocol and there is a reason for that (or many). Near is well-positioned to be one of the leading blockchain ecosystems this year. Letโ€™s explore the โ€œwhysโ€. TIMESTAMPS Quick Bio โ€“ 00:00:15 Inflation Reduction Proposal โ€“ 00:00:43 Technically Speaking โ€“ 00:02:40 Near Intents โ€“ 00:03:37 Chain Signatures and AI โ€“ 00:04:39 Decentralization and DeFi โ€“ 00:05:59 I have my Near account since March 2023, but it has been inactive for a while, as I was focused on other stuff. However, the recent inflation halving proposal by HOT DAO (HOT Protocol ๐Ÿ”ฅ) and LiNEAR (LiNEAR Protocol) brought my eyes back to the project and I really like what Iโ€™m seeing. So, hereโ€™s my first point. If this proposal passes, NEAR could lead the way in what appears to be a market trend of improving the tokenomics, as more and more experts realize holders have been overpaying for these networks' security, with a too high supply inflation. Solana tried something similar, but the proposal was rejected. In my opinion, validators voting favorably to that show a commitment to the chain for the long term. On the other hand, voting against it signals a short-term vision focused on milking the emissions as much as possible, at the ecosystemโ€™s expense. The voting currently goes with 28% โ€œYEAโ€ votes, needing 66.76% to pass. Most of the validators who already cast their votes went with the yes. 2pilot, avb, openshards, qbit, sicmundus, fox, and intear are, so far, the only seven who voted โ€œNAYโ€. This proposal has the vocal support of most influential figures in the Near ecosystem, including the Near Foundation (NEAR Foundation), led by Illia (root.near) (๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆ, โ‹ˆ), which makes me believe it will pass and show the power of the halving in getting the marketโ€™s attention and presenting a huge investment asymmetry for the native token right now. Is this everything I like about NEAR? Definitely not. This is just what got me looking at it again, just to discover a (very much) thriving ecosystem, full of interesting things happening at the same time. Iโ€™ll mention a few, but there is (much) more. Technically speaking, Near is a high-performance blockchain, with really low fees and one of the fastest finalities, with 600ms block time and approximately 1.8s finality. It also has my favorite architecture for internet-scale scalability, using sharding, while keeping a high decentralization standard. As a learning programmer, Near also has one of the best dev experiences (in my limited opinion). The documentation is clear, has a logical journey, presenting from the basic anatomy in details to more complex SDKs and tools. Iโ€™m also in love with the near-cli-rs. A command line interface program written in Rust for seamless interaction with the Near blockchain. Allowing wallet creation, chain query, sending transactions, staking, smart contract calls, and more. Near Intents. This was the second thing to get my attention, while studying the project again, and it sets a whole new standard for blockchain interactions, especially cross-chain. Basically, users can declare an intention (for example, swap Ethereum-USDT to Bitcoin) and a network of solvers, running on Near, will find the best path to accomplish this task. We recently saw an impressive 465k-worth swap happening in exactly this example, paying 0.55% of trading fees to thorswap.near and swapkit.near. According to a Dune Dashboard, the protocol accumulates nearly $400 million in volume since its launch not long ago, in November 2024. *obs.: half this volume was achieved in the last month. Massive! Near Intents is possible due to two other very interesting things: (i) Chain abstraction, and (ii) a solid AI infrastructure. Chain abstraction (via Chain Signatures) is a powerful interoperability feature, allowing Near to friendly connect different blockchains as if they were part of a single network. Users and devs benefit from wallet, address, fees, and cross-chain bridges abstractions - not even noticing they are interacting with multiple chains. One wallet that powers everything. Powered by Near. On AI, Near is just built differently. Not for the hype, but for the solution. The team has been looking for AI solutions much before the ChatGPT fever. Actually, they started as an AI company, pivoting to blockchain later. So, being one of the most promising networks for the growing AI economy was just the natural path to follow. There is an extensive and super complete research piece on that topic, recently published by Reflexivity Research (Reflexivity Research) on July 1st. It presents Near as an AI-optimized blockchain, covering AITP, Shade Agents, x402, Near Intents, and more. Definitely worth the reading. Wrapping up this content with one more aspect that really matters to me is how Near remains truthful to decentralization, data ownership, censorship-resistance and open-source primitives that have been increasingly abandoned by other key players. A simple example of that is how the Near Foundation decided to deprecate its public APIs, encouraging the surge of a more decentralized and competitive market of SaaS projects, with a highlight to Lava Network, that recently appeared in my timeline talking about that. DeFi is also huge on Near, leveraging all the previous properties I mentioned, creating a truly decentralized liquidity pool via Rhea Finance, connected with other chains like BTC, Ethereum, ZCash, and more. All that contributes to Near having the second-largest monthly active addresses, with nearly 50 million, only losing to Solanaโ€™s nearly 90 million. In the meantime, NEAR, the token, is not even at the 30rd position by market cap. Crazy stuff. To (finally) wrap it up, I also want to mention Nearโ€™s consensus decentralization. While having a low node-count, the network has a Nakamoto Coefficient of 11, which is not bad at all. Surely, there is still room for improvement, which is possible as becoming a validator is accessible staking and hardware-wise.

๐ŸšจHero police officer reveals his fears after being sacked for tackling knife-wielding teenager - as Home Secretary faces calls to step in An award-winning police officer who was sacked for a 'lack of respect' after arresting a knife-carrying teenager has claimed the saga has left him worrying about whether he can 'pay his mortgage'. The shocking footage shows how PC Lorne Castle grabbed the 15-year-old boy, who was suspected of assault, and pushed him into a wall before slamming him into the ground and proceeding to place his hand over the youth's face while shouting threats and curse words. During the commotion a Stanley-type knife fell out of the teenager's waistband. PC Castle, 46, was dismissed from Dorset Police over the Bournemouth arrest, sparking a wave of criticism as it emerged the teen was suspected of assaulting two people including an elderly gentlemen. He has now lifted the lid on a nightmare 16 months which he said 'could have broken him' - as Home Secretary Yvette Cooper faces calls to step in. The police officer told GB News: 'I came into police nine or 10 years ago. Prior to that, I was in the sports industry, went to Bournemouth University where I did law. 'I've had a confident life and am happy and get on with people. The last year and a half, when they've put me on restricted duties, I'm not allowed face-to-face contact with people. 'I'm isolated. I don't know whether I'm going to be able to pay the mortgage and bring money home until I see how this goes.' PC Castle also gave an insight into what was going through his head during the incident, which resulted in him being found guilty of gross misconduct. 'My intent was to arrest a potentially violent suspect without injuries,' he said. 'He was arrested, no injuries and no complaint, and a knife was removed from the street. 'It's not a nice situation for anyone to be in...other officers have been in that situation and that's why I am here now. Any mistake, pause or hesitation can have dramatic results. 'My intention was good and that's why I have maintained my innocence, because I know my own mindset. 'If I know it can be analysed like a sport, armchair critiquing, some time down the line, it's gonna make you pause. Whether that's good or bad it needs to be looked at.' It comes after Dorset Police released the full bodycam footage from PC Castle's partner on the stop, allowing the public to judge the chaotic episode for themselves. Following the arrest PC Castle's colleagues reported concerns about his conduct to senior officers, prompting a 16-month investigation and gross misconduct proceedings. A misconduct panel last week found PC Castle made the boy feel 'frightened and intimidated' and showed him a 'lack of courtesy and respect' during the arrest in January last year. The officer admitted that he 'lost control' during the arrest and tearfully apologised for his 'out of character' actions at a police disciplinary hearing. The panel, led by Wiltshire Police Assistant Chief Constable Deborah Smith, found him guilty of gross misconduct. They said he failed to act with self-control, did not treat the boy with courtesy or respect and that his 'shouting, swearing, finger pointing, taking hold of the boy's face suggested use of leg restraints was not necessary, reasonable or proportionate'. It was alleged the officer also grabbed the boy's throat but this was not proven. PC Castle was dismissed without notice and barred from serving again. The bodycam footage showed how PC Castle was the first out of the patrol car before putting the boy to the wall and then pushing him to the ground while shouting: 'You're under arrest'. While on top of the teenager on the ground, he then shouted: 'Get on the ground. Get down. Get down. 'Show me your f***ing hands, now. Put your f***ing hands behind your [back].' The teen, who is clearly distressed, screams and told PC Castle 'I can't' - as the officer is on top of him. PC Castle's female colleague can then by heard trying to intervene to de-escalate the situation, but Castle would not be stopped. While pointing his finger into the teen's face, he yelled: 'Right, listen, stop screaming like a little b****. Do you understand that? Shut up.' He continues: 'Roll over. Right, you try resisting again, do you understand? Right, shut up. 'If you try resisting one more time - right get your f***ing hands behind your back, do you understand? 'One hand at a time! One hand at a time. Stop screaming.' Speaking into his radio PC Castle then asks for another unit to be sent over because the suspect is 'being a little b****.' He then begins yelling at the boy again, while still on top of him on the ground, and pointing into his face. 'Right, stop resisting or I'm going to smash you. Do you understand? Put your hands behind your back.' PC Castle then tells members of the public who are watching on: 'Move back, now.' He places his hands on top of the boy's face, prompting him to cry out in what appears to be pain. He shouts: 'You are under arrest at the moment on suspicion of assault. Right do not move.' It is just 90 seconds after PC Castle opened the car door. Throughout the arrest, the 15-year-old could be heard screaming and shouting 'what have I done wrong?'. At one point he starts crying and appears to be struggling to draw breath. On the day of the arrest, the panel heard that the boy was suspected of assaulting an elderly man while riding an e-scooter before getting embroiled in a fracas with another youth outside McDonalds. PC Castle, who has twice won a national bravery award including one for saving an elderly woman from drowning in a swollen river in 2023, spotted the suspect walking up Richmond Hill in Bournemouth before the stop. His colleague attempted to step in to calm the situation several times but was all but ignored by PC Castle, video footage shows. Giving evidence, PC Castle said he became 'overwhelmed and scared' when the boy resisted as his mind flashed back to his arrest of a county lines drug dealer 18 months earlier which led him fearing for his life. As the officer struggled with the dealer, his associate who was stood behind was being told to 'cut him' - before an off-duty officer intervened to defend him. PC Castle admitted he had overstepped the mark with his language and aggression and broke down in tears as he said: 'I'm embarrassed by the video and I apologise for my actions. 'Anyone who knows me in public or private life knows that is not how I behave. When he started screaming and resisting I panicked and became overwhelmed. 'I did not choke the suspect and I did not get him in a headlock. I was trying to keep his head still with the palm of my hand so he did not hit his head. 'I did not put my full weight on him as my knees were on the concrete. I only applied enough weight to keep his body still. 'During the arrest I saw the knife fall out of his waistband so he was arrested for a knife offence. I think the arrest needed to be made but I lost control of the situation.' Mark Ley Morgan, representing Dorset Police at the hearing, said the knife was not relevant as PC Castle did not know the boy had it when making the arrest. Mr Morgan said: 'PC Castle breached standards of professional behaviour by failing to act with self control and failing to treat him with courtesy or respect. 'He abused his power and authority and his behaviour undermined confidence in the police. 'It was totally unnecessary and disproportionate, and it is so serious that dismissal would be justified.' 'PC Castle has let the police service and his colleagues down and he does not represent the many hard-working officers and staff of Dorset Police. 'The outcome reflects the seriousness of this matter and ensures that he will no longer hold a role in policing and the privilege of constable. 'I am grateful to the officers for having the courage to do the right thing and report their concerns about PC Castle's actions.' After the hearing, Dorset Police Deputy Chief Constable Rachel Farrell acknowledged that officers did a 'tough job' but said PC Castle let the force down by his actions. She said: 'I have never been in any doubt that PC Castle's actions were excessive, aggressive and inappropriate and I can understand the communities we serve will be concerned about this case. But the judgment proved divisive with many reacting online and speaking out in support of the officer. Norman Brennan, a retired police officer and founder of the campaign group Protect the Protectors, accused Dorset Police of throwing PC Castle โ€˜under a busโ€™. He said: 'Senior officers at Dorset Police have taken leave of their senses.. This decision epitomises how they have lost touch with the danger and reality of frontline policing. It is bloody madness. 'Police officers when facing volatile or violent situations will at times swear and use some unsavoury words. 'All arrests involve some form of force and pushing someone even in the face during a struggle is not always intentional and even if it is its part and parcel in many arrests when restraining a suspect. No arrest is without some sort of force. 'I'm sick and tired of officers being disciplined for things like this and I think the majority of the public would think this is absolutely bonkers. 'Many senior officers kowtow to the constant criticism of the police in a sort of appeasement and often throw officers under the bus or to the wolves as sacrificial lambs. Cases like this are more likely to deter people from joining the police.'

๐Ÿšจ JAKE HOFFMAN EXPOSED: One Child Goes MISSING In Hoffmanโ€™s District Every 48 Hours โ€” The REAL Reason Jake Hoffman Left The "Dept. Of Child Safety" LEADERLESS for 2 Years. While the mainstream media looks the other way, WolvesAndFinance just dropped a new video exposing Jake Hoffman and the seddy world of AZ politics; Uncovering a web of UPS store mailboxes, quid pro quo, multimillion-dollar payments from Turning Point, and a legislative record that raises the most disturbing questions imaginable. Here is the breakdown of the Arizona "Musical Chairs" and what it means for the most vulnerable. Turning Point reportedly sent millions of dollars to 1:10 LLC, a company operated by Jake Hoffman out of a UPS Store mailbox. When questioned about whether this was a bribe, Turning Point didn't just deny itโ€”they sent a Cease and Desist specifically telling investigators to stop asking about that specific transaction. What are they hiding? Hoffmanโ€™s rise to power wasnโ€™t an accident. It was a carefully orchestrated game of "political musical chairs" with Andy Biggs, Warren Petersen, and Eddie Farnsworth. In 2012, Hoffman dropped out of a race so Petersen and Farnsworth could run unopposed. In exchange, the machine cleared his path to the school board and eventually the State Senate. Warren Petersen (a land developer) sold Hoffman a home in Queen Creek at a $25,000 loss to the seller just in time for Hoffman to meet residency requirements for the Town Council. This was while Petersen had a massive lawsuit pending against the townโ€”a lawsuit Hoffman would eventually be in a position to vote on. That is a MASSIVE conflict of interest. Hoffman represents Queen Creek, home to Canyon State Academy and Desert Lily Academy. These facilities house at-risk and foster youthโ€”many sent from California. Between Jan 2024 and Dec 2025, 327 children went missing from these two campuses. That is one child going missing every two days. The QC police chief (hired by Hoffman) admitted these "runaways" often turn into sex trafficking and exploitation cases. In one instance, 31-year-old Wendell White was sentenced to 20 years for trafficking girls out of Desert Lily to a Phoenix hotbed known as "The Blade." When Governor Katie Hobbs tried to appoint Matthew Stewartโ€”a man with a decade of hands-on experience in the Dept. of Child Safetyโ€”to fix the agency, Hoffman blocked him. Hoffman kept the Department of Child Safety in leaderless chaos for two years. He finally confirmed Catherine Patak, the agency's General Counsel, specifically because she promised "consistent and reliable operations." Translation: He wanted the status quo. He wanted the management that allowed a child to go missing every 48 hours to remain in power. Jake Hoffman is at the center of the Turning Point money machine. He has used his power to maintain a "status quo" in a district where children are being plucked from state care and sold on the streets of Phoenix. Is he a representative, or is he a gatekeeper for a much darker industry? This is just a piece of the much larger puzzl connecting these powerful politicians in AZ who all work together to mak sure homegrown child sexual exploitation continues.

โšก๏ธ๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บNew full length interview from Andrey Gregoriev callsign "Tuta", with even more crazy details, particularly about the second counterattack assault which came after Andrey had already eliminated the first Ukrainian in the now-famous death match: It's a total hell that Andrei went through. There's no movie like this. It turns out that the hand-to-hand fight was only the beginning of a heavy battle. Andrei thought he had killed the AFU soldier with a line from his house. He went out and came face to face with him. He was scared - they fell to the ground, fighting to the death. At the very beginning of the melee he cut his hand with his own knife. But he defeated the enemy, silently and as fast as he could - the territory was under the AFU, there would be no help for sure - the Russian units were 6 km away. He said goodbye to the dying Khokhl, threw him a grenade and then finished him off with a shot: โ€œhe was mumbling somethingโ€. He went down to the basement of the house - examined his wounds, rewrapped himself. The vest was torn at the straps, the helmet didn't fit over his head - his right ear was swollen. I got up and took the radio from the AFU soldier. On the other side they were preparing a counterattack of 6 storm troopers. The enemy knew and saw the fight - they even argued on the air whether he was a Tuvinian or a Yakut. Six of them came, actively started pelting him with grenades, calling whether he was alive or not. Andrei was silent. The AFU men argued who would go to check him - one of them went, ours put him down at once. Again grenades and smoke grenades to smoke him out.

Like seemingly everyone on this app I have plenty of opinions about Twitter > X and figure now is a good time to open up a bit about my experience at the company. I tweeted for years into the void for the love of it like many of you, but after selling my startup to Twitter in 2020 I finally got to see it from the inside. Up close it was both amazing and terrible, like so many other companies and things in life. As someone with a maniacal sense of urgency built into me, Twitter often felt siloed and bureaucratic. Dumb power plays, reorgs and team name changes for the sake of someoneโ€™s ego were distractions that occurred too regularly. You couldnโ€™t just be a builder โ€” you also needed to be a politician. I was shocked by how old and bespoke the infrastructure was, but there was little will to think beyond quarterly earnings calls because we were all beholden to the masters of mDAU and revenue growth as a public company. It often felt like things were held together with duct tape and glue, and that many people had just accepted that a small product change could take months or quarters to build. Management had become bloated to accommodate career growth and the company culture felt too soft and entitled for my own taste. Healthy debate and criticism was replaced by a default refrain of โ€œno, that canโ€™t be doneโ€ or โ€œanother team owns that so donโ€™t touch itโ€. Teams could spend months building a feature and then some last-minute kerfuffle meant itโ€™d get killed for being too risky. Just talking directly to customers could turn into a turf war and create deadlocks between functions. I recall one such episode where a teammate spent a month trying to get clearance to reach out to some creators. He went through 3 layers of management and 6 different functional teams. In the end 4 executives were involved in the approval. It was insanity, and unfortunately I saw several top performers get burnt out and demoralized after exhausting experiences like that. Most people were good at their jobs but it was nearly impossible to fire poor performers โ€” instead they got shuffled around to other teams because few managers had the will or resources to figure out how to get them out. A high performance culture pulls everyone up, but the opposite weighs everyone down. Twitter often felt like a place that kept squandering its own potential, which was sad and frustrating to see. The person who was best at cutting through the BS and inspiring a vision during my tenure was Kayvon Beykpour, but he wasnโ€™t fully empowered to run the company since he wasnโ€™t the CEO. Despite those real issues, I was lucky enough to work with some of the most talented people in the business at Twitter in product, design, engineering, research, legal, BD, trust & safety, marketing, PR and more. Often it was a small cross-functional team of intrinsically motivated people who made the biggest impact by challenging some core assumption. Those teams were very fun to be on but they felt like the exception rather than the rule. The months of waiting for the deal to close in 2022 were particularly slow and painful; it felt like leadership hid behind lawyers and legal language as all answers about the companyโ€™s future notoriously included the phrase โ€œfiduciary dutyโ€. Colleagues openly talked about how Twitter was being sold because leadership didnโ€™t have conviction in their own plan or ability to fix longstanding problems. Although I didnโ€™t know much about Elon I was cautiously optimistic โ€“ I saw him as the guy who built incredible and enduring companies like Tesla and SpaceX, so perhaps his private ownership could shake things up and breathe new life into the company. My take on whatโ€™s happened since then is full of lived nuance. When people ask why I stayed itโ€™s easy to answer: optimism, curiosity, personal growth and money. From the beginning I saw that some changes Elon was going to make were smart and others were stupid, but when Iโ€™m on a team I uphold the philosophy of โ€œpraise in public and criticize in privateโ€. I was far from a silent wallflower. I shared my opinions openly and pushed back often, both before and after the acquisition. I made peace with the fact that I didnโ€™t have psychological safety at Twitter 2.0 and that meant I could be fired at any moment, and for no reason at all. I watched it happen repeatedly and saw how negatively it impacted team morale. Although I couldnโ€™t change the situation I did my best to shine a light on folks who were doing important work while being an emotionally supportive leader for those who were struggling to adapt to the more brutalist and hardcore culture. In person Elon is oddly charming and heโ€™s genuinely funny. He also has personality quirks like telling the same stories and jokes over and over. The challenge is his personality and demeanor can turn on a dime going from excited to angry. Since it was hard to read what mood he might be in and what his reaction would be to any given thing, people quickly became afraid of being called into meetings or having to share negative news with him. At times it felt like the inner circle was too zealous and fanatical in their unwavering support of everything he said. When individuals encouraged me to be careful about what I said I politely thanked them and said I would not be taking their advice. I had no interest in adding to a culture of fear or walking on eggshells around Elon. Either he would respect me for being real or he could fire me. Either outcome was okay. I quickly learned that product and business decisions were nearly always the result of him following his gut instinct, and he didnโ€™t seem compelled to seek out or rely on a lot of data or expertise to inform it. That was particularly frustrating for me since I believed I had useful institutional knowledge that could help him make better decisions. Instead he'd poll Twitter, ask a friend, or even ask his biographer for product advice. At times it seemed he trusted random feedback more than the people in the room who spent their lives dedicated to tackling the problem at hand. I never figured out why and remain puzzled by it. I donโ€™t think things had to be as difficult or dramatic as they turned out to be but I canโ€™t say Iโ€™d bet against Elon or count him out. Heโ€™s smart and has enough money to make a lot of mistakes and then course correct when things go awry. As the largest shareholder he can tank the value in the short-term, but eventually heโ€™ll need things to turn around. His focus on speed is incredible and heโ€™s obviously not afraid of blowing things up, but now the real measure will be how it get reconstructed and if enough people want the new everything app he is building. I learned a ton from watching Elon up close โ€“ the good, the bad and the ugly. His boldness, passion and storytelling is inspiring, but his lack of process and empathy is painful. Elon has an exceptional talent for tackling hard physics-based problems but products that facilitate human connection and communication require a different type of social-emotional intelligence. Social networks are hard to kill but theyโ€™re not immune from death spirals. Only time will tell what the outcome will be but I hope X finds its footing because competition is good for consumers. In the meantime, I have a lot of empathy for the employees who are working tirelessly behind the scenes, the advertisers who want a stable platform to sell their stuff on, and the customers who are experiencing chaotic updates. Itโ€™s been a madhouse. Twitter moved at the speed of molasses and suffered from bureaucracy but now X is run by a mercurial leader whose instinct is driven by the unique and undoubtedly weird experience of being the biggest voice on the platform. Many of you know me from the sleeping bag incident where I slept on a conference room floor, so I figure, letโ€™s talk about that too. Going viral was an odd and interesting experience. I was attacked by people on the left and called a billionaire bootlicker, while simultaneously being attacked by people on the right for being a working mom who was demonized as an example of a woman choosing her career over her family. Thankfully I can laugh at myself and I donโ€™t take armchair keyboard ideologues too seriously. Being the main character on the timeline, even for a few minutes, requires a thick skin and a strong sense of self. The real story is pretty simple. I was given a nearly impossible deadline for his first project and as the product lead I would never ask anyone to do anything I wasnโ€™t willing to do myself. So I worked round the clock alongside an amazing team spanning many timezones, and we delivered it on schedule โ€“ truly against the odds. It was intense but also fun. Those first few months were wildly crazy but I wanted to be there and I have no regrets. Showing up and giving it your all should, in most cases, be celebrated. Obviously you canโ€™t work at that pace forever but there are moments where bursts are mission critical. Iโ€™ve pulled many all-nighters in my career and also when I was a student for something that mattered to me. I donโ€™t regret putting in long hours or being ambitious, and feel proud of how far Iโ€™ve come from where I started thanks in part to that type of work ethic. I think of life as a game, and being at Twitter after the acquisition was like playing life at Level 10 on Hard Mode. Since I like taking on difficult challenges I found it interesting and rewarding because I was growing and learning so rapidly. I realize our society today trends toward polarization but when it comes to this app, its owner, and its future, I am neither a fangirl nor a hater โ€” Iโ€™m an optimistic pragmatist. This may really irritate the internet but you cannot pigeonhole me into some radical position of either loving or hating every change thatโ€™s occurred. I escaped my fundamentalist upbringing and am a free thinker these days. Everyone can be seen as both a hero or a villain, depending on who is telling what angle of the story. Elon doesnโ€™t deserve to be venerated or vilified. Heโ€™s a complicated person with an unfathomable amount of financial and geopolitical power which is why humanity needs him to err on the side of goodness, rather than political divisiveness and pettiness. I disagree with many of his decisions and am surprised by his willingness to burn so much down, but with enough money and time, something new & innovative may emerge. I hope it does. Sometimes I get asked about how I felt when I got laid off, and the truth is it was the best gift Iโ€™ve ever received. Sure the headlines and punchlines wrote themselves but I was battle hardened by then. I knew that Iโ€™d worked in a way where I could walk out with my head held high. I have no bitterness about the Product Management team being dismantled, and it made sense for me to exit as nearly all of the remaining PMs were let go. Going on a sabbatical afterward has been exactly what I needed to decompress and Iโ€™m finally feeling rested and relaxed. Iโ€™m a creative and a builder, so sooner than later Iโ€™ll jump back into a high intensity company but Iโ€™m grateful for this season of thinking, reading, traveling and being with people I love. After having time to reflect I believe more than ever that the very best outcomes flow from great leadership that combines the head and the heart. Iโ€™d be remiss if I didnโ€™t note that in all of this there is also a cautionary tale for anyone who succeeds at something โ€” which is that the higher you climb, the smaller your world becomes. Itโ€™s a strange paradox but the richest and most powerful people are also some of the most isolated. I found myself frequently looking at Elon and seeing a person who seemed quite alone because his time and energy was so purely devoted to work, which is not the model of a life I want to live. Money and fame can create psychological prisons which may worsen mental health conditions. Weโ€™ve all seen high profile cases of celebrities who end up with some combination of depression, paranoia, delusions of grandeur, mania and/or erratic behavior. Living in an echo chamber is dangerous and being at the top makes a person even more susceptible to being surrounded by yes people when nearly everyone around you is on the payroll and somehow stands to benefit from being in your orbit. Figuring out how to keep โ€œbetter angelsโ€ around in the form of family, friends, and teammates is critical to staying on the rails and enduring intense ups and downs. Everyone needs to hear hard truths sometimes and if you fire all the people who speak up then the reality distortion field may just turn into a vortex. I was drawn to Twitter because Iโ€™m obsessed with the problem of loneliness and connection between people. I find it fascinating & troubling that humans are getting lonelier as we simultaneously create a world thatโ€™s both safer and wealthier. I donโ€™t believe that trade-off has to exist, which is why I keep returning to that theme in my personal and professional life. I realize this is too long of a tweet but Twitter was a weird and special place on the internet, and Iโ€™m grateful to have played a teeny tiny role in its story and evolution. Iโ€™m here for whatever comes next โ€” on this app and in new places. Consumer social is very much alive and at a fascinating juncture, so Iโ€™ll be watching and participating and sharing hot takes because I donโ€™t want to, and probably canโ€™t, turn that part of me off. Perhaps X becomes a resounding success. Or it fails epically. Either way, I expect it will continue to be a very entertaining ride. ๐Ÿซก

When Judge Napolitano asked me on his show how Syria ended up with Abu Mohammed al-Jolani as its โ€œpresident,โ€ I could almost hear the cognitive dissonance on the other side of the screen. How does a man who was once the emir of al-Qaeda in Syria, a co-founder of ISIS by any reasonable historical reading of his trajectory, become Washingtonโ€™s chosen man in Damascus? For me, the answer is not a mystery. It is the logical end of a dirty war that began not with Syrian protesters in 2011, but in an American-run prison camp in Iraq years earlier. And if anyone still suspected this was โ€œjust a conspiracy theory,โ€ a former CIA officer โ€“ John Kiriakou, who went to prison for exposing CIA torture โ€“ has now said publicly what many of us have long argued: Jolani is, in all likelihood, a CIA asset. Letโ€™s start with the timeline, because the timeline alone already screams โ€œintelligence operation.โ€ Abu Mohammed al-Jolani was in a CIA-run prison in Iraq โ€“ Camp Bucca โ€“ alongside another familiar name: Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi. Both men were released in early 2011. โ€œCoincidentally,โ€ that is exactly when the regime-change war in Syria begins. Within weeks, Baghdadi goes on to lead what becomes ISIS, and Jolani crosses into Syria to found Jabhat al-Nusra โ€“ officially al-Qaedaโ€™s franchise in my country. Washington designates Nusra a terrorist organization. The UN follows suit. On paper, Jolani is the enemy. The State Department even slaps a $10 million bounty on his head. But bounties are cheap. Cruise missiles are expensive. And for over a decade, while the US flattened cities in Iraq and Syria allegedly to fight โ€œterrorism,โ€ it somehow never found the time, or the coordinates, to seriously target Jolani or his core command structure, even though he controlled large swaths of Syrian territory from Aleppo countryside all the way to Idlib. Because Jolani and his men were fighting the one government Washington had already decided must go: the Syrian state under Bashar al-Assad. This is where Operation Timber Sycamore comes in: a multi-billion-dollar CIA covert program that funneled weapons, money, and training to so-called โ€œrebelsโ€ in Syria. They were sold to Western audiences as โ€œmoderate opposition.โ€ On the ground, those moderates were a disappearing species. What existed in reality were hardline Salafi-jihadist factions, with Nusra at the top of the food chain. The Free Syrian Army (FSA) was the mask, the logo on the paperwork, the brand name you could sell to Congress and CNN. The real muscle on the ground was Jolaniโ€™s men and other takfiri groups, who did the actual fighting, took the actual territory, and imposed their version of rule. Weapons went โ€œto the moderates.โ€ The moderates magically handed them to al-Qaeda. Everyone in Washington pretended to be surprised. No one stopped the pipeline. Over the years, the mask slipped. US officials themselves began to speak of Jolani as something more than just a former enemy. James Jeffrey, Washingtonโ€™s former envoy to Syria, openly called Jolani โ€œan assetโ€ for US strategy โ€“ not my word, his. Robert Ford, the former US ambassador to Syria, has publicly admitted that he personally worked with Jolani to โ€œtake him out of the world of terrorismโ€ and polish him into a politician. Think about what that means: the same US that claims to be fighting an endless war against al-Qaeda quietly devotes diplomatic energy to rehabilitating the Syrian branch of al-Qaeda into a partner, a useful strongman, a future head of state. I said on the show, and I repeat it here: I believe Jolani was recruited in Camp Bucca. The timeline makes no sense otherwise. You donโ€™t walk out of an American-run prison and, weeks later, magically have the networks, the money, the arms, and the logistical capacity to found al-Qaeda in Syria, right at the moment when Washington and its allies need a battering ram against Damascus. Recently, former CIA director David Petraeus even sat with Jolani and told him, โ€œYour success is our success.โ€ What more do people need? A signed employment contract? But letโ€™s assume, for a moment, that you still think this is a stretch. Enter John Kiriakou. Kiriakou is not a YouTuber chasing clicks. He is a former CIA officer who went to prison because he exposed the torture program and named the torturers. His loyalty is clearly not to the Agencyโ€™s PR department. Recently, on Unfettered Speech, he described the Jolani situation bluntly. Here is the essence of what he said, which Judge Napolitano played on air: -The โ€œnew presidentโ€ of Syria is a former al-Qaeda member and a co-founder of ISIS. -This same man is welcomed at the White House. -Senior US officials, including the Assistant Secretary of State for the Near East, travel to meet him. -President Trump suddenly lifts sanctions on Syria as Jolani consolidates power, prompting Syrians โ€“ desperate and exhausted โ€“ to dance in the streets. The only thing that makes sense is that Jolani is a CIA asset, per Kiriakouโ€™s. When a former CIA officer who has already sacrificed his career and freedom to tell the truth looks at the pattern and says, โ€œThis is our guy,โ€ it is not a conspiracy theory anymore. Now, you may ask, why would the United States and its allies back such a man? The answer lies in what Syria used to be, and what it has now been turned into. Before this war, Syria, for all its flaws, was a horizontally integrated state. People identified themselves as Syrian first and then Armenian, Druze, Christian, Alawite, Sunni, Shiโ€™a, Kurdish, and so on. The stateโ€™s foreign policy aligned with Iran and Hezbollah, supported Palestinian factions, and kept a real deterrent posture toward Israel. For Washington and Tel Aviv, this was unacceptable. The goal was not โ€œdemocracyโ€; that word is just wrapping paper. The real objective was to remove a government allied with Iran and replace it with a fragmented landscape: a weak central authority in Damascus, surrounded by sectarian cantons and warlord enclaves, all dependent on foreign patrons. Jolani is perfect for this role. For Israel, he brings vertical division. A man with a long al-Qaeda pedigree ruling Syria is a nightmare for minorities: Christians, Druze, Alawites, Shiโ€™a, many Kurds, and other smaller communities. They will not accept al-Qaeda rule. So they retreat into their own militias, their own cantons, their own de facto mini-states, exactly in line with old Israeli strategic doctrines like the Yinon Plan, which openly advocated fragmenting neighboring states along sectarian lines. On the ground, we already see it: -Druze militias running their own affairs in the south with quiet Israeli backing. -Kurdish forces in the northeast under US protection, managing their own autonomous zone. -Alawites discussing an autonomous coastal enclave. -Christians living in silence and fear. You donโ€™t need formal borders on a map to balkanize a country. When I, as a Syrian of Armenian origin, stop thinking of myself as Syrian first and start thinking purely as Armenian, when I instinctively fear my neighbor because he is from another sect, the balkanization has already happened in the mind. For Washington, Jolani is equally โ€œuseful.โ€ He has promised to normalize relations with Israel, to open Syriaโ€™s markets to Western capital, and to hand over the countryโ€™s resources from the hydrocarbons east of the Euphrates to the gas fields under the Mediterranean to American and allied companies. A 24-million-person country reduced to a reconstruction market: $300 billion worth of contracts, infrastructure projects, and โ€œinvestments.โ€ But for investors to feel safe, they need a strongman in Damascus who can project the illusion of stability while remaining utterly dependent on foreign protection. That strongman, in their design, is Abu Mohammed al-Jolani. But Jolani is not acting alone. Around him is a constellation of Western intelligence veterans and โ€œconflict resolutionโ€ NGOs acting as intermediaries. British MI6 circles, under figures like Jonathan Powell โ€“ former chief of staff to Tony Blair โ€“ are central in managing this process. Powell runs an organization called Inter Mediate, which specializes in โ€œtalking to armed groups.โ€ Behind the humanitarian language lies political engineering. One of Inter Mediateโ€™s operatives, a woman named Clare Haigh, is now said to have an office inside the Syrian presidential palace, advising Jolani on how to talk, how to dress, how to handle journalists, how to sell himself as a reformed jihadist turned statesman. And then there is Qatar. Ahmed Zaidan โ€“ once Osama bin Ladenโ€™s favorite journalist, photographed sipping tea with him and broadcasting his tapes on Al Jazeera โ€“ is now a personal adviser to Jolani. Make it make sense. An al-Qaeda emir, handled by US and British intelligence veterans, advised by bin Ladenโ€™s favorite media man, massaged by Western PR consultants, welcomed in Washington, and crowned in Damascus as โ€œpresident.โ€ If you wrote this as fiction, an editor would tell you itโ€™s too on the nose. Since Jolani took power through an international and regional deal that pushed Assad aside, over 11,000 people have been killed. Many of them are from the very minorities the West loves to mention in speeches but abandons in practice. Videos circulate of his fighters asking terrified villagers at gunpoint, โ€œAre you Muslim or not?โ€ and executing those who give the โ€œwrongโ€ answer, including Druze and Alawites who are not recognized as โ€œtrue Muslimsโ€ by their extremist ideology. Christians, who had already suffered massive emigration between 2011 and 2024, are being squeezed further. They have no organized armed force, no foreign sponsor. They are expected either to live under the mercy of an al-Qaeda-bred regime or to leave the land of their ancestors. This is what Washingtonโ€™s โ€œasset managementโ€ looks like in human terms. If you are an American reading this, you might be tempted to say: โ€œThis cannot be. My government would never knowingly empower al-Qaeda.โ€ But it already has, repeatedly. From Afghanistan in the 1980s, when US intelligence backed the Mujahideen (and, indirectly, their Arab foreign fighter allies), to Libya and Syria in the last decade, where jihadist factions were instrumentalized against secular or nationalist governments, the pattern is clear. The names and acronyms change. The logic does not. The same establishment that lectures the world on โ€œdemocracyโ€ and โ€œhuman rightsโ€ is perfectly willing to install a man like Jolani as the ruler of one of the oldest civilizations on earth, as long as he delivers strategic gains: -breaking the Iranโ€“Syriaโ€“Hezbollah axis; -fragmenting Syria into weak, controllable pieces; -opening its resources and markets to Western and Gulf capital; -and giving Israel unprecedented strategic depth and security. Everything else โ€“ the massacres, the ethnic cleansing, the collapse of national identity, the destruction of ancient communities โ€“ is treated as collateral damage. I am often asked what Syria will look like in five or ten years. I wish I could answer with optimism. Right now, the forces pushing to turn my country into a permanent vassal state โ€“ ruled by a former al-Qaeda emir, policed by foreign intelligence, exploited by foreign capital โ€“ are incredibly strong. But nothing in this region is permanent. People who come to power by cutting off other peopleโ€™s heads often lose their own. If there are still sane voices left in Western politics โ€“ people like Tulsi Gabbard ๐ŸŒบ, whom I mentioned on air โ€“ they must at least recognize this insanity: backing an al-Qaeda emir as โ€œour man in Damascusโ€ is not just immoral; it is ultimately self-destructive. Syria does not need Jolani. The West does not need Jolani. There are Syrians who can have friendly relations with the United States without being former al-Qaeda commanders, without murdering their own people, without turning an ancient nation into a laboratory for extremist social engineering. The question is not whether such alternatives exist. They do. The question is whether Washington and its allies want a sovereign, stable Syria, or whether they prefer a shattered, cantonized carcass kept alive just enough for the next โ€œassetโ€ to feed on.

this video is the CLEAREST explanation of how claude skills + AI agents work and how to use them most people set up an AI agent and wonder why it keeps disappointing them. the context window is everything context is what the model assembles before it takes any action. think of it like everything the agent needs to read before it does anything. the quality of what goes in determines the quality of what comes out. the models are genuinely really good right now. claude and gpt are exceptional. the variable is almost always the context you give them. 1. agent.md files are mostly unnecessary every single line you put in an agent.md file gets added to every single conversation you have with your agent. a 1000 line file is around 7000 tokens burning on every run. the model already knows to use react. it can read your codebase. save the agent.md for proprietary information specific to your company that the model genuinely cannot know on its own. 2. skills are the actual unlock a skill.md file works differently. what loads into context is only the name and description, around 50 tokens. the full instructions only appear when the agent recognizes it needs that skill. so instead of 7000 tokens on every run you have 50. and the agent stays sharp because the context window stays lean. the closer you get to filling the context window the worse the agent performs, same way you perform worse when someone dumps 10 things on you at once. 3. here is how to actually build a skill the right way most people identify a workflow and immediately try to write the skill. what you want to do instead is run the workflow by hand with the agent first. walk it through every single step. tell it what to check, what good looks like, what bad looks like. correct it in real time. once you have had a full successful run from start to finish, tell the agent to review everything it just did and write the skill itself. it writes a better skill than you will because it has the full context of what actually worked in practice not in theory. 4. recursively building skills is how you go from frustrated to reliable when the skill breaks, and it will break, ask the agent exactly why it failed. it will tell you specifically what went wrong. fix it together in that same conversation. then tell it to update the skill file so that failure mode never happens again. ross mike did this five times with his youtube report generator. it now pulls from eight different data sources and runs flawlessly every single time without him touching it. 5. sub agents are something you earn not something you set up on day one start with one agent. build one workflow. turn it into one skill. once that works add another. ross mike has five sub agents now covering marketing, business, personal and more. it took months to get there and every single one exists because a workflow proved it deserved to exist. the people who set up 15 sub agents on day one and wonder why nothing works skipped all the steps that make the thing actually run. 6. your workflow is the thing the model cannot get anywhere else the model has been trained on everything. it knows more than you about most things. what it does not have is your specific process, your taste, your way of doing things. that is what skills capture. that is what makes your agent actually useful versus a generic one. downloading someone else's skill means downloading their context onto your setup and it will not work the way you want it to because it was never built around how you work. this is the clearest explanation of how agents actually work i have heard. Micky runs this stuff every single day and the results show it. full episode is now live on The Startup Ideas Podcast (SIP) ๐Ÿงƒ where you get your pods people charge for this sorta stuff i give away the sauce for free i just want you to win watch

An update on Maya Gebala (Tumbler Ridge) From her mom Cia **Additional info regarding Ronalds house. Charity funds, and Cvap and added at the bottom** Hey Everyone. Here comes another long one...... Ive wanted to write an update for quite sometime.. I just, dont really know what to say I guess. I know alot of my posts seem to be deep in despair. Truth is though, I simply can't afford to give up in faith. Its all I have left. People ask me, regularly, is Maya okay? -I suppose- If Okay is the mid line on a scale from 1 to 10, 1 being dead 10 being thriving... I suppose okay would suffice. The Maya I see everyday currently, to the Maya i spent the past 12 years observing and attempting to tame into civility, are vastly different. Through the eyes of pure unwavering love, It feels like a crime to say "shes okay" The Maya I had the pleasure to watch blossom.. like a volcano.. The brave, confident force of nature. Was rarely sick for school. Had deep burning empathy. She understood more of the world and the people around her, then she probably should at her age.. Now.... Now, I imagine she is a goldfish, floating in the small aquarium that is her own body. Observing. She cant communicate. Or articulate feelings. Her eyes tell me she is in there still. So, is she "okay"? What IS okay? The adrenaline and consistent wave of hope and despair in the beginning brought feelings that made the scale of comparison easy to articulate. And then now. We have only time. Endless time. Uncertainty. Faith(?) And fear.... Her cranialplasty went well. No further signs of infection, crisis averted. She is healing incredibly well. Myself, as a mother, stood on a platform of maternal vigilance. Now I can ... what.... relax? Now that her life doesn't hang in the fragile threads of moments and possibilities, I'm left with the mountain of broken pieces that was once our lives.. The dishes from a sunday dinner, left forgotten until tomorrow. Time to deal with the mess. We were plucked from our small town lives and dropped collectively in a new life, broken and battered. A now past life, where i once ran a business. where my daughters spent most their little lives walking the streets 'hanging at moms shop' Where everyone knows you, and most welcome you. Where there are many more trees then cars, and if you heard sirens at night, you likely knew who they were for. In the silence of unrelenting "wait and see" we pick up the pieces, and start over. A new normal. A new place. A new shade of jade. It has been nearly impossible to aquire housing. knowing she will likely be in a wheelchair. To know that there is a good chance that her level of consciousness can still continue to develop and all I want to do is protect my children from the busy noise and sirens that is the city. One day she might ask what happened. One day i may have to tell her. I hope to protect the peace. I hope to create an imaginary parallel to the life they were forced to abandon. It is difficult... if not impossible. For a while little Dahlia and I stayed in a series of airbnbs, thinking we would find a home soon. She needed her mom. I felt all I could give that resembled any sort of 'life' was a bedroom.. and breakfast together. Under the implication that victim services would cover accomodations and expenses as they offer on the government website. A service intended to support families who have been subject to the wreckage of a hanous and violent crime. We dont qualify. The list of potential benefits covered for truamatized families searching for a new normal in an unthinkable situation. We arent covered. Turns out, legislation is written in such a way, we dont qualify. So all and any expenses are left to be fulfilled by any organizations holding donations, that has litterally saved us so far.. So, with that, accomodations have become too much, and we live between the back of my car and a couch in the hospital. Hoping we find a place that fits all our requirements sometime soon. Then what? Prepare for the worst, yet hope for the best, they say. What if maya needs round the clock care? How do I work... how does LIFE work. I live moment to moment in a sea of maybe's with no solid ground to rest our feet. Running in place. Fantasizing over possibilities that seem just barely out of reach. The carrot on the stick. We have had some incredible opportunities surface, we seemed to have stumbled on a 'school' type structure in a horse stable... no walls. No familiarity... Perfect for now. It is exactly what she needed. So... I still keep faith. We never went to LA.. for anyone who believed we did, it just didnt happen. There was too much uncertainty and her state was to fragile to have the travel was worth the risk.. in all honesty I think I pulled the trigger on that post to early, although I didn't see it that way at the time -my bad. We are now, however, researching neurospecific hospitals world wide for advanced treatment, if we find one she may qualify for, we would rather go broke taking any potential avenues available, then walk the arduous path of "wait and see". So.. we are okay. We are all okay. If Okay was the mid line on a scale of 1 to 10. 1 being dead. 10 being thriving. We are the epitome of Okay.. Mya Maya. My goldfish baby, as Ive been calling her.. Dumbed down to a state of pre-evolution, her gold fish state. All I can hope is, one day she finds the means to sprout legs and walk out of her pond. Like the images in those old 90's science books.. I continue to pray she evolves.. I hope the path to a new normal starts to become clear. We just.... wait and see. Xoxo (( **Edit: To address question about the Ronald Mcdonald House. We do have a room there.. one per family. Dahlia was abruptly forced to abandon her entire life, while simultaneously grappling with the news that some of her friends were dead, and confronted daily thay her fearless leader is a goldfish.. I didnt find it healthy that her only available.friends were more vulnerable children. She loves fiercely, but im terrified for her. I basically gave the room to david and his family that comes.quite frequently to help. The airbnbs and couch surfing, id assumed to be short.lived as he hunt for homes..** **CHARITY FUNDS. YES. The pac charity. The Red Cross. There are other charities available we can pull from. However, with having toforfeit my shop, the outrageous cost of housing, medical equipment, and not knowing how or if I can ever work again, using any of that for overpriced short term stays seems very unreasonable. 2 weeks in a hotel or Airbnb is a months rent. There are financial resources. As our future looks now, maya will need mechanical slings, ramps, stair lifts. A van, a special tub, and potentially at home care... all of that combined is well over 200k in a year... That coupled with 2500 a month in rent, and everyday living. These alotted funds need to stretch us as long as possible. With 6k a month in home care for maya and 2500 a month in rent, its scary fast it Will go. I will.likely need to upgrade some courses and find new work. Its alot and the future is unknown. So with the government sector offering to cover "accomodations" it didnt seem so reckless. I wouldnt want to spend a lifeline like these funds, on expensive short term stays, but with that seemingly the only option, we will just keep looking for a home.** **Also In regards to Victim services. I hope no one calls to raise hell on our behalf, it isnt the employees, it is the legislature. We could tell today during our meeting that they wanted to help. The guidelines to these benefits are restricting, there simply is no place for us.. The change needs bigger then an exemption. It needs to be for the people.** Thank you for your love and passion though.

Alex Hormozi revealed exactly what business to start if you are broke: 1. Every business idea comes from one of three sources, what Hormozi calls the three P's: pain you personally overcame, your profession, or your passion. There is no fourth category. 2. A pain-based business often starts with something you already solved for yourself. A woman managing lunch for nine kids built an entire organized system around it, and that system itself became the seed of a business. 3. A profession-based business comes from a specific skill you already get paid for. A registered dietitian who learned how to bill insurance during a brutal 12-hour, six-day workweek turned that narrow skill into teaching other dietitians, and now earns close to a million dollars a year with only 5,800 Instagram followers. 4. A passion-based business comes from what you cannot stop consuming in your free time. Hormozi's own obsession with fitness content eventually led coworkers to literally offer to fund his first gym because his passion was so obvious to everyone around him. 5. You do not need the perfect idea on the first try. Picking something, even a flawed version, starts the iteration process. He calls this finding your best bad idea, because a bad idea that keeps getting refined eventually becomes a good one. 6. Once you have your what, you choose your who from three groups: people like you, people you have already helped before, and underserved markets. Most successful businesses come from the first two. 7. Sara Blakely built Spanx by solving her own personal frustration with underwear. Mark Zuckerberg built Facebook by solving a problem inside his own dorm room. Personal problems scaled into billion-dollar businesses more often than people assume. 8. Hormozi's first ever dollar came from casually helping a woman at his gym with her food choices. After an hour and a half of conversation at a pizza shop, she handed him a $100 check without him ever naming a price. 9. Narrowing your audience using at least three specific traits, age, profession, and a specific pain or interest, makes your message land far more powerfully than vague targeting ever will. 10. Getting more specific does not shrink your income potential, it grows it. A generic time management PDF might sell for $19. The same idea narrowed down to outbound sales reps in the garden and power tools industry could sell for $10,000. 11. The narrower and more specific your niche, the fewer competitors you face. Hormozi describes this as having the only lifeboat in an ocean full of people struggling to stay afloat, which means you can charge whatever you want. 12. Every offer needs two halves: the good stuff your product delivers, and the bad stuff it helps people avoid. Motivation only comes from one of these two forces, gaining something wanted or escaping something hated. 13. Vague promises like "lose weight fast" stopped working decades ago. Specific pain points, like the exact sensation of your thighs chafing in the sun, bypass people's skepticism because the specificity proves you actually understand their problem. 14. If you are not the target customer yourself, interview real people using direct questions: what are you struggling with, how long have you struggled with it, what have you had to give up that you loved, and what have you had to start doing that you hated. 15. The entire offer collapses into one simple formula: I help to get a good outcome without a bad outcome. Hormozi's own example: "I help 45-year-old women who just had kids get back into their high school jeans without giving up time with their family." 16. A unique mechanism is the special process or system that makes your solution feel different from every competitor's, even if the underlying mechanics are similar. P90X built an empire on the concept of muscle confusion. Weight Watchers built theirs on a points system. 17. A unique mechanism does not need to be scientifically revolutionary. It simply needs to feel like the missing piece that makes everything else finally click into place for the person buying it. 18. The simplest way to get your first five customers requires no funnel and no ad spend. Greet someone, compliment something specific and genuine about them, insert your one-sentence offer, and ask if they know anyone who might benefit from it. 19. Repeat that outreach process for four hours a day or until you have contacted 100 people, whichever comes first. Consistency in this single action is what produces the first five paying customers, not perfect marketing or branding.

The Wise Ones Podcast Eps. 6 Shaw (spirit/acc) Creator of elizaOS | $MILADY.AI $ELIZAOK We present to you the sixth episode of The Wise Ones Podcast - Hosted by The Wisemen For this episode, we're sitting down with Shaw (spirit/acc). Fifteen years of building. Self taught out of San Francisco when the cypherpunk movement was still breathing and Silicon Valley was rewriting the rules of every industry on the planet. No formal training. No shortcuts. Shaw built ElizaOS, the AI agent framework that powered thousands of agents across Solana and became one of the most forked repositories in crypto history. 109,000 of you read the Shaw thesis. You made it the biggest article Wisemen has ever put out. Now the forgotten architect speaks for himself. You know how Wisemen operates. When we sit down with someone, it's not surface level. This is 75 minutes of the kind of conversation most podcasts will never get. Not just about the projects. About the mind behind them. How Shaw thinks. How he connects with crypto at its deepest level. How a developer who barely had the money to buy into his own token watched that position reach $25 million at an all time high, then rode it all the way down to $120K without selling a single coin. If you want to understand not just $MILADY.AI and $ELIZAOK, but the brilliant mind building them, this is where you start. In this conversation, we explore: - The real AI16Z origin: The DMT experience the night before launch. The ego death. The walk to meet the creator of Daosfun and the two words that sparked a billion-dollar ecosystem. None of this has been told at this depth before. - The $75 million betrayal: A co-founder who never wrote a single line of code deleted Shaw from the repo, sold the project, forged documents, and walked away rich. Shaw went into debt. Moved home. Then built Eliza. - From broke to $25 million to $120K: Shaw could barely afford to buy into his own token. A community member who believed in the project donated a massive share of supply to the team. That position reached $25 million at all time high prices. Then it fell to $120K. Shaw never sold a coin. What that journey actually does to a person and why he calls it both his greatest badge of honor and his biggest regret. - The layer one debate: Shaw gives his unfiltered take on Solana , Ethereum , and Binance Chain. Where the volume is. Where the builders are. Where it's all headed. No allegiances. Just a developer breaking down what he sees from the inside. - Creator fees and the new funding model: Shaw breaks down how he's using creator fees from Bags to employ developers and fund the entire build around his vision. No VCs. No raises. Just trading volume converting directly into the team that's writing the code. - $Milady.AI and $ElizaOK: Shaw goes into detail about exactly what he's building, how the developer network around him works, and the bigger vision behind the technology. We asked him directly if he believed Milady AI could become his biggest project ever. His answer is going to surprise you. - The culture war breaking crypto: Traders vs holders. Why Shaw believes the toxicity and rotation culture are killing the space from the inside. And what actually needs to change. - The message to builders: Shaw's words to every developer who lost money, lost hope, and is questioning whether any of this is worth it. This is the unfiltered story of one of the greatest AI builders on the Solana blockchain. A developer who did it at the highest level possible got completely counted out and became known as the forgotten architect. But he never stopped writing code. No hype. No script. Just the forgotten architect in his own words. We hope you enjoy.
