A 17-year-old boy was rushed to the ER by his brothers struggling to breathe...

[thread]
He was in profound respiratory distress with deep retractions breathing 40 times per minute. It turns out he was a severe asthmatic in the midst of the worst asthma attack of his young life.

Staking is an extremely low R/R in todays market.

There's simply too many other opportunities.

But what if I said you can get the rewards from staking on top of liquid assets?

Enero y febrero de 1995. Perú y Ecuador están otra vez en guerra. Los desacuerdos territoriales entre ambas naciones reviven un antagonismo que ya había llevado a peruanos y ecuatorianos a enfrentarse varias veces en el pasado. Es la Guerra del Cenepa. Image
Esta vez, el campo de batalla se ubica en el lado oriental de la Cordillera del Cóndor, en la cuenca del río Cenepa. Un terreno selvático y montañoso de difícil acceso. Será una guerra eminentemente terrestre, si bien, las fuerzas aéreas de ambos países jugarán un llamativo rol. Image
En teoría, la Fuerza Aérea del Perú (FAP)​ debe dominar los cielos. Considerada como una de las más poderosas de Hispanoamérica, la aviación peruana cuenta con más de cien aparatos de combate en su inventario. Incluidos doce modernos interceptores Mirage 2000 de factura francesa. Image

Get ready to be captivated as we unveil the incredible story of Draupadi Cheerharan and Krishna's intervention, dating back to the 12th and 13th centuries. 📚🔍

This will be a long #Thread, so make sure to bookmark it and retweet!

1/16 Image
In the epic Mahabharata, specifically in the Sabhāparvan (61.35-38), there is a dramatic scene:

1. Draupadi is forcefully brought into the gaming hall.
2. Karṇa instructs Duḥśāsana to strip both the Pānḍavas and Draupadī of their garments (61.38).
3. The Pāṇḍavas respond by removing their upper garments.
4. Subsequently, Duḥśāsana attempts to remove Draupadī's single cloth in front of everyone present.

Interestingly, this attempted stripping is rarely mentioned thereafter. In this analysis, we will explore this contradiction in greater detail.

The Critical Edition (CE) of the Mahābhārata, published by the Bhandarkar Oriental Institute (BORI) in Pune from 1933 to 1966, is widely considered as the definitive source for establishing the textual canon of the epic. However, after half a century, there are valid reasons to critically examine its claim of being the best available manuscript version.

The BORI's critical affirmation of disrob and rerob is challenging in view of the following

-BORI referred to Oldest manuscript a 12th century, Nepali palm-leaf manuscript– yes a Nepali manuscript applied to Mbh of Bharat

-BORI didnt refer to older text by Abu Saleh’s Instruction of Princes (1026) (astonishing account of the Kurus and Pāṇḍavas as viewed from Sindh with no mention of Kr̥ṣṇa.)

-Oḍīya and Nandināgarī manuscripts examined. Edgerton, editor of the Sabhā Parva of the CE, refers to a complete manuscript, a continuous roll in Devanagari, in the Bharat Itihasa Sanshodhaka Mandal of Pune, which he could not obtain for study. 3 The National Mission for Manuscripts has to find and document it for the revised edition of the Mahābhārata.

-Razmnama (1584), the Persian version of the epic (including Harivaṁśa) that Akbar commissioned, although it was contemporaneous with the manuscripts depended upon for the CE

1/10 It’s not very often I get this excited, but I’ve had a EUREKA moment 🤯.

There is VERY strong evidence that bacteria/infection can cause both Atherosclerosis and Alzheimer’s disease. Porphyromonas gingivalis, the keystone pathogen in chronic gum disease is identified in /2
2/10 the brain of Alzheimer's disease patients. Toxic proteases from the bacterium called gingipains are also identified in the brain of Alzheimer's patients, and levels correlate with tau and ubiquitin pathology. Similarly the same bacteria p.gingivalis is found in /3
3/ the arterial wall and can cause Atherosclerosis.

I have been using a product for my dogs - Ascophyllum nodursum which is a type of brown seaweed to reduce plaque burden on their teeth. It worked so well that I started using it too. I’ve done a bit more research on this /4

I stopped using AI for writing, and at first, it felt like I lost a part of my brain.

For months, AI had been my silent co-writer. Need an idea? AI. Stuck on a sentence? AI. Want a better hook? AI.

So I made a drastic decision: No AI for writing. Here’s what happened 🧵: Image
1/ Day 1: The Panic

The cursor blinked. The page was blank.

I typed a sentence. Deleted it. Typed another. Deleted it again.

For the first time in months, I realized I had forgotten how to start. Image
2/ Day 3: The Frustration

Without AI, writing took forever. I doubted every word. My ideas felt messy.

I missed the instant fixes, the polished, clean-cut AI generated sentences.

But deep down, I knew this struggle meant something was waking up inside me. Image

Wars are fought not just with tanks, but with stories too. Putin’s story is that Russia’s victory is inevitable, while Europe is weak. Democracies can challenge this tale. Read on in my FT essay (gift link if fast) 👉🏼

To counter it, democracies must act as a network: EU, Ukraine, Canada, the UK, Australia, Japan. Together they can show they are not passive and create a narrative of strength, unity, and resilience. "A narrative is a strategy in story form" @MarkLaity #security #europe
Ukraine and its allies should project power across multiple fronts: economic pressure, hybrid operations, defense production, and information campaigns. Every action reinforces the story of capability and resolve #ukraine #narrativepower #defense

This thread could easily be a $497 upsell training.

But I’ll give it to you free.

Here’s how I build post-purchase funnels that turn $50 orders into $80+ AOV machines.

The exact system I use to scale clients to $1M+ months 🧵
Think about this:

You spend $$$ to acquire a customer.
They already trust you.
They’ve got their card out.

And you just let them check out…and leave?

That’s the dumbest thing you can do.

An upsell turns that ONE order into 1.5, 2, or even 3.
Here’s how I structure upsells for clients:

✅First Post-Purchase Offer → Complementary product (low friction add-on).
✅Second Offer → Upgrade or bundle (higher ticket, bigger margin).
✅Third Offer → “Why not both?” option (discounted bundle of the first 2).

Think of it like walking someone up the value ladder.

RIP OpenClaw.
Introducing Agent One: Autonomy with Security.

Built in 3 days with Opus 4.6 and n8n.

A short demo: 🧵 Image
It can:
- Reply to your Telegram or Slack messages
- Access selected folders from your laptop
- Access Gmail, Drive, Notion, Linear, etc.
- Install new local tools in a sandbox
- Run autonomously for hours
- Create multiple subagents
- Learn from experience
- Wake up regularly
I wanted an autonomous agent available on all my devices. But I didn't want:
- 35,000 emails and 1.5M API keys exposed
- The top-downloaded community skill? Malware

Agent One:
- Can't access your API keys
- Can't modify its environment
- Can't access folders you haven't shared
- Can't access tools you haven't approved
- Must get your confirmation, e.g., when sending emails

These aren’t prompt instructions. They’re hard architectural boundaries — Docker isolation, mounted folder permissions, n8n’s tool approval system.

Stanford scientists may have just killed the $65B knee and hip replacement industry.

They made a breakthrough that could regrow aging cartilage and reverse arthritis.

Here's the breakdown:
We used to think of cartilage like a car tire.

Once the tread wears down, you're driving on the rims until you replace the whole thing.

But Stanford's new research shows that the body can actually be triggered to regrow that "rubber" on its own. Image
The problem is a protein called 15-PGDH.

It increases as you age and destroys the molecules your body needs to repair tissue.

In older mice, these levels are doubled, which prevents natural joint repair. Image

I strongly disagree with this. Schools, especially high schools, are spaces where young people should be encouraged to wrestle with the world, to confront its ills and to work to propose resolution, to try and figure these things out. The Roedean protest seems crude, likely to
inspire resentment and defensiveness rather than win allies and engagement. And we might critique the school for not looking to help channel entirely justified concerns that speak well of these young women — for a terrible genocide that has caused unbearable suffering — into more
constructive forms of expression. But that these young women have censure and opprobrium heaped on them for daring to care, for looking for ways in which they might have their concerns register - crude though that might be - seems horribly misplaced.

Pasamos un tercio de nuestra vida sobre él, pero pocos saben que el colchón no nació en una fábrica de muebles de diseño, sino en el fragor de las Cruzadas. Lo que hoy es un símbolo de descanso y paz, comenzó como un botín de guerra traído de Oriente. Tira del hilo 🧵👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽 Image
En la Europa medieval, la inmensa mayoría de la gente dormía sobre montones de paja o directamente en el suelo duro, compartiendo el poco calor disponible con el ganado. La comodidad nocturna era un concepto desconocido hasta que los soldados cristianos llegaron a Tierra Santa. Image
Los cruzados se quedaron atónitos al ver que sus enemigos árabes no dormían en el suelo desnudo. Usaban unos grandes cojines rectangulares rellenos de lana o algodón que tiraban al suelo por la noche. Los llamaban "al-matrah", que significa "lugar donde algo se arroja" o "cojín". Image

According to Greg Ip, in the US economy today, "rewards are going disproportionately toward capital instead of labor. Profits have soared since the pandemic. The result: Capital is triumphant, while the average worker ekes out marginal gains."

2/6
And as Marriner Eccles, FDR's Fed chairman, explained in the 1930s, this creates a dangerous illusion. The extent of business profits depends almost wholly on the purchasing power of ordinary people, which in turn depends on wages.
3/6
In a rapidly-growing developing economy, with huge unmet investment needs, it may be possible (even necessary) for profits to rise faster than wages because the resulting rise in saving can be deployed to productive investment.

프론티어 컴퍼니 내부(특히 모델 개발자들과 내부 규제 팀)들이 쓰는 모델은 현재 퍼블릭 모델보다 한참 앞서 있기에…

저런 두려움이 이해가 된다.

하물며, OAI가 상업화에 미쳐 제대로된 정렬을 하지 않고 있다고 비난하면서 독립한 앤트로픽에서 저런 반응이라니…
다리오 아모데이의 1-2년 내 변곡점과 특이점이 온다에 강력히 동의하면서, 내 준비의 대부분은 적어도 우리 가족과 가까운 지인들을 위한 방주를 만드는 것일 수도 있다고 생각하곤 한다.
