When researchers analyzed how Pegasus spyware infected iPhones without the user tapping anything, they found something wild. The attackers sent an iMessage with a fake GIF that targeted Apple's image decompression engine. The decompression math was so flexible that the exploit chained arithmetic operations together to construct a literal, functioning software CPU using over 70,000 segment commands that defined logical bit operations (AND, OR, XOR, XNOR, etc.) entirely inside the image parser. This created a small computer architecture with registers, a full 64-bit adder, and a comparator, running raw code before the phone even buzzed with a notification

very likely my kids will only need to drive to get their drivers license and their kids won’t need to learn to drive at all.
driving will be a lost art.

As a neurosurgeon I care a lot about road safety.
By now you’ve probably seen @Waymo’s stunning safety results (like 91% fewer serious crashes). But they didn’t just publish data headlines. They released the raw CSV files and data dictionaries.
I did a much deeper analysis. A es when you analyze how they’re achieving this.
This isn’t incremental improvement - it’s categorical. We’re looking at the potential elimination of traffic deaths as a leading cause of mortality.
The intersection breakthrough: Waymo has essentially solved intersection crashes, with 95% fewer injury incidents than human drivers in the same locations. That’s transforming the deadliest driving scenario.
The national math: If every US vehicle performed like Waymo, we’d prevent 33,000-39,000 deaths annually and save $0.9-1.25 trillion in societal costs. Even partial adoption at 27% would save ~10,000 lives per year. In terms of magnitude, this would be the equivalent of eliminating every pedestrian death nationally in a year.
The physics signature: Here’s what fascinates me: 47% of Waymo’s contacts involve less than 1 mph delta-V. They’re not just avoiding crashes; they’re converting unavoidable incidents into gentle bumps. It’s like having physics itself on your side.
We’re not talking about marginal safety gains. The data represents a fundamental shift from harm reduction to harm prevention.
The methodology matters: I used their dynamic geographic benchmarks (comparing like-for-like road conditions) and verified the findings hold across San Francisco, Phoenix, LA, and Austin. The safety advantage actually increases in more complex urban environments.
Link to raw data below….
Notes on my approach:
Analysis based on 96 million miles of Waymo Rider-Only (RO) data through June 2025, utilizing Waymo's dynamic geographic benchmarks to compare Waymo Driver performance against human drivers under similar road conditions and operational design domains.
The projections for national impact (deaths prevented, societal costs) involve several assumptions. Given Waymo's zero reported fatalities, the direct serious injury reductions were mapped to national fatality statistics using established NHTSA-derived ratios that correlate serious injury crash rates with fatality rates. This extrapolation assumes that Waymo's observed serious injury prevention capability would translate proportionally to fatality prevention. Societal cost savings are estimated by applying average per-fatality and per-injury economic costs (e.g., medical, lost productivity, quality of life) as published by NHTSA, scaling these national averages to the projected number of avoided fatalities and injuries based on Waymo's safety performance. These figures represent the potential annual impact if the Waymo Driver's safety profile were widely integrated into the national fleet.

This is what a peak cross-chain performance is.

Today I dived into the world of living AI agents in the fully on-chain CIV-like MMO - Realms: Eternum.
And the results? MIND BLOWING! 🤯
Here’s what went down with the agents:

super exciting
In a matter of months or years, AI agents will be some of the best (if not *the* best) venture investors in the world. That's why we're excited to give a sneak peak of @ADINonline -- AI-powered venture capital.
ADIN is a network of AI agents that are able to:
* evaluate deals, iligence in a matter of minutes
* predict the value of a company (with reasonably accuracy, without knowing the value beforehand)
* democratically vote on whether to invest in a project
* recommend an investment amount based on the DAO/fund's thesis, deployment schedule, size, stage focus, and risk appetite
With ADIN, we’re aiming to push both DAOs and venture into an agentic future.
