Connecting the ecosystem with @Square has been the dream since we launched bitcoin in @CashApp in 2018

Starting today, all merchants can now seamlessly stack bitcoin behind the scenes from their daily sales

Bitcoin Payments Acceptance will be live for everyone on November 10

Há algum outro exemplo em todo o mundo democrático em que o candidato derrotado numa eleição presidencial tenha seus passaportes apreendidos e seja proibido de sair do país no dia seguinte à votação, por ordem de um juiz alinhado ao candidato vencedor?

Estou procurando precedentes históricos e, até agora, não encontrei nenhum. A medida é ainda mais extrema considerando que Flávio sequer foi denunciado criminalmente.

$MSFT offers 60,000 employees a voluntary exit.

60K Y’all!!

First time this has ever been offered at Microsoft and it will affect employees in India, The United States, Canada, and the UK at level 70 or below…

Employees find out in a few hours if they are being targeted for me think that H127 layoffs sound intense. Is this a pre-layoff round?

Also makes me wonder if they changed some scheduled layoffs due to be called out by @VP. Peace offering? 🤔 Timing is just interesting.

More to come.
$MSFT Microsoft's job cuts aren't done, and Xbox is where to watch next.

Asha Sharma is reportedly planning three more rounds: this month, November and January. 1,868 jobs are gone against a 3,200 target, so roughly 1,300 more are coming.

Spreading cuts across a whole year is a choice. It keeps the margin story moving and leaves everyone who's left waiting. I'm watching for the October round.

.@blocks is now an ‘AI lab’ as it
• released a frontier speech model @dessa
• likely more in the pipe

But it’s different than AI neolabs bc
• self funding via @Square & @CashApp (no need to dilute or raise debt)
• 17 years of proprietary merchant and consumer data
• doesn’t need to sell/promote its model to succeed
• has deep AI/ML talent, predating ChatGPT

Very bullish

Democrats are openly talking about jailing Elon Musk as soon as they retake power.

@micsolana on how American politics became a blood feud — on both sides — that's only getting worse.

Oh shit the NSA backdoors are gonna be out in the open
@Suhailard several OAI people say there are unfixable bugs in hardware that are exploitable by AI models directly speaking machine code so even if we could solve software that’s not enough. We need defense to move faster than offense if that’s even possible we may just have a new normal that requires adapting to insecure software (bank transfers require going into a branch and taking a dna test 🤣😬)

Growing up around my family business taught me that hard work was just a way of life. I've never shied away from a challenge, and it takes real discipline to not only run a bank but also transform the industry at the same time.

Every chapter in my career has prepared me for what we're building at @Lead_Bank. And wow am I proud of what this team is accomplishing on a daily basis for our partners. We've deliberately chosen to be excellent where others have been satisfied with just good enough.

Thank you to @PaigeSmithNews and Bloomberg @business for the opportunity to reflect on my journey, all the way back to the boardwalk in Atlantic City.

The biggest of the busts announced today is a $1.6 BILLION (with a B) fraud ring that was allegedly paying to fly addicts into LA from all over the country, putting them into a fake detox program, then giving them sedatives to keep them from ever leaving.

Profoundly evil.

The Cyber Pandemic is here. Your antennae should be raised. Time to mentally prepare for the propaganda onslaught that will inevitably result from today.

Resist the calls for complete control over the internet by governments and their trusted corporate partners.

this is gold's quantum FUD but it's way worse because you can't software update gold.
Last month, we demonstrated high-rate alchemy: turning mercury into real, stable gold, beating CERN’s record by a factor of 10.

Last week, we enriched isotopes in the world’s most powerful plasma centrifuge, beating the Soviet record that stood for 40 years.

Now, we’re building Francisco to achieve record power density.

PSA: Do NOT use public WiFi or shady DNS servers for the next few weeks.

SSL is practically broken and you can be attcked with an MITM attack. Your ISP and other intermediaries can also spy on you. Use a trusted VPN.

It will take a few days at least to flush out this crap CA.
Instead of using 384 bit random private keys, they used private keys like the super secret, unguessable number 4.

They are a cryptography company. They had one job. They're selling Post-Quantum Cryptography while doing shit like this lmao.
Community note
SSL/TLS is not broken. The vulnerability involved eight eMudhra intermediate certificates, which major browsers and operating systems (Chrome, Firefox, Apple, and Microsoft) had already blocked by October 20. Updated devices are protected against these MITM attacks.

This is gonna be a bloodbath if Andrew is warning people to go ahead and take any PHP offline until patch drops.
Full details of a remotely exploitable vulnerability in the core engine of *all* PHP versions will be released tomorrow, October 21st. If your organization has internet facing PHP applications then you need to be ready to patch the minute the update is released or *strongly* consider taking the application offline until you can:

Once again, I think we have really crossed a line tonight and entered completely new territory, nothing of the sort has ever happened before.

There are groups of hoodlums roaming the city and openly terrorizing people while in many places the cops are nowhere to be seen.

The violence of yesterday was shocking, but it wasn't the first time we had seen far-left activists and gangs of hoodlums opportunistically join the protests to cause mayhem and loot.

But I grew up in France and have been obsessively following French social and political events for more than 20 years and I have never seen anything like that.

If you look at the tweet he is replying to, it's another video showing a similar group kicking in the door of a residential building to break in. It's Clockwork Orange stuff at this point.
