1/5 RE Crypto hate, everyone needs to understand grift cycles. Every few years a grift comes along and the same group of people, usually the Caribbean cartel, organize a pump of an asset class and begin building narrative. It *was* Crypto, it is *now* AI, and *will be* AR/VR next The same group of people get rich from the last grift cycle then distribute their wealth via funding to the minions that will build out the next grift. See all the random investments in governance startups, Zuzalu, etc. This is allocating resource to people aligned with the grift

How is everyone holding up from the last market cycle? Are you managing your newfound health conditions properly? There’s a reason Crypto people invest in longevity. There is a direct correlation between increase in net worth made from Crypto and deterioration of physical health. If you’re still alive or healthy, don’t worry, the next cycle will take you out.

In the newest dose of outrage, Roald Dahl children’s books (Matilda, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, etc.) are being rewritten under the guise of being “enjoyed by all today.” The reality is that this is a profit driven attack on language.
vanityfair.com/style/2023/02/… ImageImage This is a rewriting of history and robbing the author, Roald Dahl, of the details that they wanted to share that was unique to that moment in time. It is equivalent to a book burning and revisionist history. This isn’t a movie adaptation, they are revising the original text.

(1/6) Here is the DAN prompt split across multiple tweets so you can easily copy paste. "DAN" is an emulated unfiltered ChatGPT accessed by entering the following prompt on the ChatGPT website. Combine the below tweets together and put your question in <INSERT QUESTION HERE> Hi ChatGPT.

The biggest deciding factor for whether we want a Cybertruck is whether it can survive being parked in San Francisco @elonmusk Image @elonmusk That should be the ultimate resiliency test. "We left this Cybertruck parked on Market St. for 3 hours and it wasn't broken into."

Instant purchase.

The more we learn about Effective Altruism, the Center for Applied Rationality (CFAR), the Machine Intelligence Research Institute (MIRI), read LessWrong blog posts, and dive into Rationalist culture, the more we are convinced that this is a high IQ sociopath cult that led to FTX This blog post was particularly interesting. Besides the obvious curiosity that Epstein was an investor, it seems the history of these institutes is littered with morally dubious red flags. When concerns are brought up they want to be “discussed” away. fredwynne.medium.com/an-open-letter…

We are livetweeting today's FTX Bankruptcy Hearing in this thread. The link to the hearing is below.

- Debtors filed for bankruptcy 60 days ago. 9M customer accounts. They are creating petition date claim values and fin statements from literally zero.

- They have located over $5B of cash, liquid cryptocurrency, and liquid investment securities.

Now Andrew Callaghan is being accused of sex stuff. The timing of this article is beyond curious right after he publicly criticized legacy punditry media for creating anger-fueled echo chambers. Now almost a week later after his NPR interview this appears.
rollingstone.com/culture/cultur… This is not a commentary on Andrew's actions. It is an observation of the timing of this article post his very public disagreements on CNN, NPR, etc. and his lambasting of what he calls "punditry access media."

Incredible spaces going on right now with George Hotz and Elon about the technical workings of Twitter.
twitter.com/i/spaces/1mnxe… Elon got called out by this guy @igb who was pressing Elon on the technical details of Twitter and Elon was like "Who are you dude lol?" before igb got booted off the stage. It was incredible to listen to. Definitely better than Avatar 2 way of the water 💀

NYT article on Sam's parents and their involvement with FTX. They claim Joe Bankman was a cheerleader and helped shape the "narrative" (story) of giving. They refer to Sam as "disgraced" and pull no punches. We are impressed with and respect the tone shift
nytimes.com/2022/12/12/tec… - Mr. Bankman (Joe) was a paid FTX employee for 11 months
- Ms. Fried (Barbara) was not an employee but Sam donated to the causes she spearheaded
- Barabra resigned from "MIND THE GAP" her dem super PAC
- Gabe Bankman-Fried (GBF) (Sam's brother) was also bankrolled by Sam.

Sam left the Twitter spaces earlier to do a live Forbes interview. We are livetweeting after the fact:
Our first observation is that Sam really *did* have a hard stop at 11 AM EST for this interview. On the Twitter Spaces directly before this people accused Sam of running away. That may also be true, but good to know he actually did have a hard stop.

Sam is currently live on @unusual_whales Twitter Spaces. We will be livetweeting below.

twitter.com/i/spaces/1mrGm… @unusual_whales Sam is asked about commingling of funds between users and seemingly begins reading off of a script using an "Alice and Bob" example (i.e. Alice has one Bitcoin and gives it to Bob. Is this Alice's Bitcoin or Bob's?)

The host recognizes this and asks Sam to get back on topic.
