Two surprises at the grocery store: 1. these fruits startled me looking like a mass of tarantulas, 2. they're part of the lychee family which I've been picking the past few days. Scary ones are rambutan, mine in bags.
Let me get this straight, this Trump Wallet site gets uncovered by a dev. Then both Don Jr and Eric deny any connections, and even Barron joins X, handle barronxspaces (for the first time?) to deny the wallet. Meanwhile Don Jr does in fact say a wallet is indeed coming, just not that website (trumpwallet dotcom), and listen to worldlibertyfi. Sounds to me like, "We're not involved ('cause we weren't ready for go-time), but yes it's totally happening."
It's becoming more and more clear to me, and fast, that coding with no longer be defined by which dev can best write and debug code, but by which hacker-coder (vibe coder) can best utilize AI to mash up code and get it working.
Man coding (manual coding) is driving the car with reins and buggy whips, new coding is telling the auto-drive car where to take you and sitting back while you get there.
Yes, I know, we don't like custodians holding #bitcoin and we don't like politicians. But, governments and politicians are a part of life. I much rather prefer politicians who have a stake in the game than politicians who wage "war on crypto" and try to roadblock anything and everything associated with it. https://coinpedia.org/news/trumps-top-economic-adviser-reveals-crypto-ties-with-5m-coinbase-stake/
Want a good investment? Buy forever stamps. Inflation went up 21% 2013-2023 (CPI), but stamps went up 26% in price. Forever stamps hold their value in comparison. Stamps are the new gold.
This Strategy plan is starting to worry me. Saylor is literally just making stuff up now to get more money in order to buy more #bitcoin. I get wanting to acquire BTC, but this creating stocks and shares promising greater payouts down the road is starting to sound awfully pyramid-ish. It works as long as BTC goes up, then it doesn't. I'll give him credit for doing what he believes in. Instead of changing the name from Microstrategy to Strategy, he should have changed it to Going All In because that's what he's doing.

I realize that "AI is making us all dumber" is the idea du jour, but I'm starting to wonder if it's true. At least in this early-going period, until AI gets really smart or truly figures out us dumb people, it might make us smarter. In the least, it might improve our writing skills. To use AI effectively, it absolutely forces us to use as much exact precision in our writing as possible. And, with language being so close or the same thing as thinking, it requires us to think with precision. This article is great along these lines:
On desktop, I can't get an image to upload on my usual go-to clients: failed on Nostrudel, then Coracle, then Iris. Finally got an image to work on Yakihonne. What gives?
