Honestly if they sent a honeypot after me she’d probably fall in love with me and betray China

She did a pretty impressive job of staying calm. If you'd like to imagine how terrifying that would've been, nose down at 700mph
Neither of them should've been in that cockpit though

This is good listen
"Every single day I would just 20x long or short."
@adlay_eth joins the Insilico Terminal Podcast to talk about front-running FTX's leveraged tokens, arbitrage, and calling the FTX collapse.
We covered how he went from jazz to arbitrage bots, the rebalance math behind the FTX rate trades to Australian funds, shorting UST, modelling stablecoin depegs at Y2K Finance, and what he's building at Insilico Terminal now.
00:00 Intro: going from jazz to code
07:52 Why he started with arbitrage, not TA
12:01 Fat-finger arbitrage, new-listing spreads
21:28 Frontrunning FTX leveraged token rebalances
38:21 Selling funding trades to Australian funds
48:00 Calling the FTX collapse
56:39 Shorting UST, depeg models at Y2K Finance
1:02:17 Why Insilico Terminal, what he's building
1:12:35 Final advice: drop the ego

Another beautiful to Sir Patrick Steward tribute that I ran across on Reddit
If the creator of this would let me know, I am happy to flag it

I'm not crying, you're crying!
Paying tribute to a great actor and a fine human being

Lots of chatter about the Prequels recently idk y
But here's my opinion which you didnt ask for. They're decent but still not great.
But I'm pleased that poor George Lucas is getting some love for them after being brutalised by those RLM nerds' reviews

If you're interested further, have a listen to this from 4:39
Some of these ideas I think are so good that I think, if George had gone down this route, then hired a good script doctor and a good editor these prequels could've wiped the floor with the original trilogy

> how can you out-compete the people who work 9:00 to 9:00, six days a week?
uhh better ideas, tighter coordination, stronger team-match hiring
I get the the feeling there's some underlying egalitarian rot in these discussions that needs to be addressed first

Revolut CEO Nik Storonsky: “The US is not that competitive. Europe is even less competitive.”
“China is competitive.”
“China is 9/9/6. Even if you are good in Europe, or in the US, how can you out-compete the people who work 9:00 to 9:00, six days a week?”
“I started in a 40 companies. Within 5 years, only 3 companies survived. They all worked on the weekends.”
“Within 10 years, only 2 companies survived out of 140.”
“Working weekends is a must if you want to survive. Purely statistically.”

Full Mario 64 in Mixed Reality! Running in real 3D (no stereoscopic crap) natively at 90FPS and also running on my desk! 😋
Again, Opus 5.5 + PICO CLI combo made it quite straightforward.
Such a bliss to play an oldie at 90 FPS in 3D.
Disclaimer: I own an original physical project is not associated with Nintendo or PICO.

Fusion reactors mine both gold and bitcoin
For every gigawatt-thermal of fusion reactor capacity burning deuterium-tritium, you can produce 2 tonnes of gold per year by recycling the 14 MeV neutrons through mercury.
The economics of a gold-breeding fusion reactor are about half revenue from gold, and half from prices.
The natural evolution of technology is to move beyond "chemistry' and into "alchemy" - nuclear sciences that involve the transmutation of elements, at energy scales and densities a million times higher than usual material science, chemistry, and molecular interaction scales.
The first companies to approach this will be targeting things like medical isotopes and enriched nuclear fuel, but there's really no limit. If you think we can make energy too cheap to meter, then it becomes feasible to transmute elements at industrial quantities as raw material feedstock into the economy.
Your thesis really should be that reality is programmable down to the atomic level, and that is inevitable where our technology will take us.

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.
