So basically, today PHP got two critical bugs that let anyone run code on your server without even logging in, which is bad, and then the details leaked before the patch was even out, which is worse, and it works on WordPress and MediaWiki and Magento and Joomla and Laravel, and Censys says like 1.5 million servers are running a version with no fix, so the NSA was like "take your system offline," and the FBI was like "take your system offline," and CISA and the UK and CERT-EU were all like "take your system offline," and then the Prime Minister of Japan, the actual Prime Minister, posted at 5:55 in the morning telling 48.8 million people to take their system offline, so everyone took their system offline, like the Dutch cybersecurity agency took its own website offline, and the Dutch parliament went offline, and the Port of Rotterdam went offline, and Finland and France and Denmark started pulling government sites, and Wikipedia went down, and Archive.org went down, and Asana and GOG and Something Awful went down, and the University of Vienna's webmail went down for some reason, and that's just PHP. Because GitLab also dropped a CVSS 10.0, which is the highest score they give out, for a bug that's been there since 2014, so that's every self-hosted GitLab for twelve years, and then LiteLLM 1.107.0 got hijacked and shipped a credential stealer and a remote access trojan in every single wheel and the Docker images, including latest, and you didn't even have to import it, just installing it was enough, and it's the second time this year, and then Railway paused every deployment on the entire platform because someone got into the environment variables, so now everyone has to rotate every secret they've ever stored there, and TiDB Cloud said someone was walking around inside with stolen credentials for basically a month and an extortion group says they took 10.6 terabytes, and Zeabur got breached for the second time in two months and is just shutting down, like the whole company, and Node.js patched remote code execution and a TLS bypass, and CISA says Plex is being actively exploited, and someone took over 300 Tor exit relays to steal SSH passwords, and SafePay ransomware has hit over 600 critical infrastructure orgs, and India's biggest bank filed a data loss incident, and Japan has been in an official state of emergency in cyberspace since October 9, which honestly explains the 5:55 AM post. Oh, and eMudhra, a certificate authority that's issued over 60 million certificates, whose entire job is proving websites are who they say they are, was supposed to be using private keys that are random numbers over a hundred digits long, and one of them was 4. Just 4. And the others were like 66 and 237. Anyway, it's Wednesday.

Higgsfield have scaled to $1BN in ARR in 18 months; that is faster than Cursor. But did you know they have over 150 people in content production alone? For every product release, funding announcement, you name it, they have built a content machine that is unmatched. The next generation of companies will have content baked into their DNA.

These are game-changing evolutions. Proud investors!
I'm so excited that our @theworldlabs team has achieved a major milestone today! Introducing Atlas - a first of its kind multimodal world model trained from scratch! 🚀 Atlas is capable of generating frames with pixel-perfect camera control, reconstructing large scenes from as few as one single input image, simulating space-time by reframing videos, natively outputting 3D spaces from one or more input images, composing multiple posed images into a consistent 3d world, and more! This is the best camera conditioned world model ever, opening doors to many possible use cases from VFX to robotics. I'm so so so proud of our team!♥️

Pretty cool watching the team using it more and more. Before we invested. 🫡
Higgsfield just ranked #2 on Brex’s list of fastest-growing software vendors. Brex’s ranking is based on real spending activity across 35,000+ companies, tracking where business dollars are accelerating. Pretty cool to see Higgsfield alongside some of the companies moving fastest in software right now.

Can you imagine saying this with a straight face? Sorry California. Let’s make sure this doesn’t happen in MA.
Replying to @RoKhanna @mcuban
Allow illiquid founders to pledge shares with a loan from the government to pay tax. The loan period is long but not infinite (e.g. 10 years). The loan is non-resource: at the end of the period, the loan is either paid back in cash, or the government assumes the shares.

For our next act we will open a cafe in San Francisco
The momentum is real. $510,500,000 written, $149,500,000 of it in the last 30 days. Capital that keeps everyday life running.

.@LloydWahed had to sit through an hour+ of me talking, so now you have to as well. ✅
"There will be agents on-chain in the next year or two, that are going to change the game completely for both sides" This week on Searching for Mana.... Boris Revsin (@brevsin) - @tribecap on the biggest battle in technology over the next decade. (and it's NOT Ai vs Crypto) It’s ownership. AI is becoming a massive centralising force: 👉The models are collapsing into a small number of winners. 👉The products are collapsing into shared infrastructure. 👉Distribution is concentrating fast. That creates enormous value. But who captures it? 🔽 Crypto. Blockchain becomes the ownership layer for the AI economy. AI creates. 🧠 Crypto coordinates. 🤝 AI generates value. Blockchains distribute and preserve it. His point isn't ideological, it's completely practical. If AI pushes the world towards concentration, crypto becomes a necessary counterweight. The antidote 💉 which helps keep systems open.

Smuggled out of Russia has a nice ring to it. 🤫
"The future of ownership....is likely to happen on the Blockchain" Tomorrow on Searching for Mana. Boris Revsin (@brevsin) - CEO @tribecap From being smuggled out of Russia at just 4 years old to becoming a leading voice in the future long term relationship between AI and Blockchain. With investments spanning @OpenAI, @krakenfx and @xai - Boris is unusually well placed to talk about where AI goes next. Not just how the technology evolves, but who captures the value, who controls the infrastructure, and whether ownership ultimately concentrates in the hands of a few companies or fragments back out to the crowd.

The amount of people who think everything is "staged" is truly insane… Yes. Trump convinced a 31-year-old Kamala donor to charge the Secret Service with multiple firearms and go to prison for life so he could… still be unpopular and build a ballroom that’s already being built.

If you are a business owner in NYC, and you are *still* moving fwd on hiring or building or investing in NYC... well, you can't act surprised about additional taxes and penalties. Say what you want about the mayor, he is (gleefully) transparent about what he wants to do.
