Claude Code was down for a couple of minutes, and I’m not going to lie - those were probably the worst and least productive minutes of my day. Not sure how people managed to get anything done a year ago or so.

Since the sun doesn't shine at night, solar farms need to come up with other solutions. With Reflect Orbital, there's now a startup that offers to direct sunlight onto solar panels at night using mirror satellites. 🤯

If you look at the crypto charts these days, you can see that the $RESOLV token (the governance token for a delta-neutral stablecoin) is actually doing quite well. However, when you look closer, you’ll notice that the investors and team gave themselves almost 50% of the tokens.

Good luck with that.🫡

Saylor keeps diluting $MSTR shareholders as he pleases. Roughly 70% of the money ($900M) is once again coming from issuing new shares and dumping them on the market.

And we’re still months away from the point when the investors and the team start to unlock their tokens. What a garbage coin. $PUMP

The U.S. government is basically turning the whole Iran situation into a meme. The only thing missing now is Trump launching a coin called Epic Fury to crowdfund the missiles.

Of the top 11 traded pairs on Hyperliquid (perps) by volume, only four are still cryptocurrencies. Looks like the future is bright for Hyperliquid with the stock and commodity futures you can now trade on the platform.

I’m not sure a blockchain with basically no users or any significant on-chain activity actually needs an ETF. 🤷‍♂️ $DOT

Fun fact: Today, security systems can be built in such a way that a simple WiFi signal is enough to detect whether a person is in the room – and even determine their position. In some cases, it can also measure heart rate.

Taiwan has politically decided to phase out nuclear power. To compensate for this, over 40% of the current electricity mix comes from liquefied natural gas and about 40% from coal. Since the chip industry is heavily dependent on electricity, CO₂ emissions have also increased significantly.👏🏻🤷‍♂️

They can short whatever they want, but shorting $ETH after it dropped from $4.8K to $2K is probably not the smartest move. Obviously, ETH might go up or down from here, but I think it’s basically just a coin toss at this point. Never forget: nobody knows anything.

Wait, the S&P 500 and other indices are actually down, and Bitcoin is holding steady? What’s going on here? I can’t remember the last time this actually happened.

Has Steinmeier already commented on the attack today? He really doesn't make a good impression – and at the same time, his official residence is being renovated for a billion euros.

The human brain is really bad at comprehending probabilities. The one thing that still amazes me is that if you shuffle a deck of 52 cards, it’s almost guaranteed that no one has ever shuffled it into that exact order before.🤯

I totally understand: For a summer vacation with four people, flying a bit farther away, the cost of business class tickets quickly reaches €15,000. And you also need a hotel. Not many people can afford that anymore.

How good is the overtime rule in Olympic ice hockey? There is a maximum of ten minutes of sudden death, and only 3 versus 3 plus a goalie are played. Just now, there was a thriller between Canada—and now the Finns versus Switzerland in overtime.

The biggest arbitrage right now is being a heavy user of Claude Code. I’m pretty sure they’re either subsidizing usage at the moment or too many people and companies are paying for it without actually using it enough.

You don’t need millions of customers to become a billionaire — sometimes 1,566 are enough.

Pretty great race from Pinheiro in the giant slalom - congrats on the gold medal! I would have never guessed it, but it was actually the first medal for South America at any Winter Olympics.
