Binance wallet 16 came online 2021.
Why it got compromised now?
Smart people work at Binance, one would assume key cannot be exported from the server over network.
The attacker either waits 5 years.
... Or ...
The wallet server itself is not compromised but the communications. Maybe compromise some other server in the network and start messing with the traffic. Like some otherwise harmless monitoring software.
If the wallet server communicated with HTTPS there cannot be man-in-the-middle. Normally.
Unless TLS intermediary is compromised.

Spent years watching models ace a single image and completely whiff on anything that moves or changes angle. Today we’re fixing that.
Try Glimpse now, our first visual thinking model with competitive frontier performance compared to Astra on key public visual reasoning benchmarks.

Coming back from the dead is arguably one of if not the very best masculine experiences for confidence
I have spoken to some very high level operators who have been destroyed and zero'd out in their mid thirties by bankruptcy, divorce getting ugly and a multitude of other things and those individuals who eat those shots and came back to the arena swinging and rebuilt themselves from basically nothing; everyone of those motherfuckers has that untouchable it factor swagger and its so potent
Those moments where you're down and out, took a risk which was 95% of NW; got clipped and now you barely have money for rent without hopping on uber for 30 hours a week for the next 4 weeks, or maybe you even go into heavy debt and get clipped
Those are the moments that forge the spirit and make the man in complete totality, if a man can connect to his vision for himself and revive from those angles from the dead he will know a strength and a power like no other
Fear is such a neurotic mistress, its so easy to be consumed by fear when everything is going perfectly and it can paralyse you even when things are great, but then once you get destroyed into the dirt and all your nightmares are at the door, all of them have transformed and become real now it is strangely at this very point when they have no power over you, the point where you're in the most danger you care the very least as you have gained strength from engaging and welcoming your shadows, once you welcome something and you are truly not bothered by it; you swallow its soul and it animates you into correct posture and life force and you can utilise that as an additional limb of some sort
It's never getting decimated that really deconstructs men, you will always live in a glass house afraid of the wind when you have never realised you can survive the coldest nights and its genuinely that realisation that is the foundation of becoming and growing beyond who you actually are
Unless you fail truly at some point, you will never develop the courage to be who you truly could be, as the protection of your little ego will prevent you from truly taking on the almighty behemoth challenges
Failing brutally atleast once destroys your ego and liberates you, it almost acts as an additional health bar
Always the dudes who have done the least who are the most stressed and the men who are the most calm who have been in the war the longest
Otherwise you will live to protect your illusions forever

True story about Musk:
One of his cofounders and a friend of mine used to play golf together. As they were playing, his old cofounder which he started Tesla with, said how comfortable Elon Musk was with risk. He said this once at first and no one batted an eye.
He then emphasized that Musk has an ability to take on abnormal amounts of risk. These are decisions that can make or break companies. He described Musk’s decisions as so risky that they could’ve bankrupted Tesla.
He went on to say Musk’s decisions were so crazy and risky that they even got into fights at the office, even throwing items at each other.
Moral of the story is that one of the reasons Musk is so successful is that he has an ability to push beyond what normal people set as limits. Of course, luck is a factor but with everything you need luck.
Musk is a generational founder and builder and his ability to make heightened decisions without flinching is one of the reasons why he’s one of the most successful men in the world.

Today, I’m excited to introduce @safeworldai!
Our mission: improve robot safety for the next billion machines.
AI is moving from screens into the physical world. Robots are becoming more capable, more autonomous, and increasingly operating around people.
But more capable robots require more capable ways to test them. 🧵

Over the weekend, I put an unreleased checkpoint of π0.7 inside an excavator and placed 2nd at the @ActorLabs + @physical_int 36hr hackathon.
With about an hour of embodied data (3 cameras and joystick values, no joint angles), the policy could continuously move dirt with a single prompt.
This was so straightforward to get working (pi is cooking) we spent the rest of the hackathon mounting a Nerf minigun on the roof. We added a people searching/tracking + firing feature to prevent people from getting too close to the dangerous machinery (ai safety feature).
Here’s how we built it + more details (data collection, hardware hax, sim2real, video of me getting shot)🧵

Impressive. This set of talks, along with the new America dot gov website, has the unmistakable feel of an Apple launch event. They're rebooting the federal government as a tech startup. Several observations.
(1) First, with this new AI interface to the entire federal government, if it works as promised, there won't be a single American who can't say their life wasn't helped at least in part by AI, or that the benefits accrued solely to zillionaires. This in itself cannily mitigates anti-datacenter sentiment.
(2) Second, Joe Gebbia and Marco Rubio's talks on simplifying name changes and passport filings introduce a completely new era where the US government is actually launching tangible features that benefit users.
(3) Third, this launch event in and of itself may visibly drive reform. It could become much more important than the State of the Union. Unlike laws, code is user-visible, and can be instantly audited by the public, as Obama found out with the failed obamacare website launch. So: the annual America dot gov event may be substance, whereas SOTU is traditionally optics. I wouldn't be surprised to see the President present at the next one.
(4) Fourth, this kind of event is a perfect example of where tech and red cooperate best. They both hate bureaucracy. Automating paperwork with code reduces the power of statists over both capitalists and nationalists. It's also hard to undo by other admins: once you digitize a process, hard to turn it back to paper.
(5) Fifth, it's an obvious point perhaps, but think about how much influence YCombinator has had in 20 years. From Gebbia's Airbnb joining their 2009 batch to a complete overhaul of the user interface of the US bureaucracy, and thus the US government.
(6) Sixth, this is another take on the network state. The functional part of the US (the network, meaning tech) is merging with and partially reforming the dysfunctional part (the state, meaning bureaucracy) by automating 20th century paper forms.
As a tech startup, there will no doubt be bugs and user issues and so on, but unlike with paper laws those issues will be visible and the code fixes will be verifiable. A new era of AI America. Rooting for them.

china trips are ... so back! investors from founders fund, khosla, etc visited recently. ff went to learn abt supply chain dependencies in their portfolio, visiting manufacturing, robotics, self-driving, energy, ai cos, incl minimax in shanghai and ubtech in shenzhen, we heard.

1/ We’ve closed Breed VC Fund II, a $15M early-stage fund.
We back the founders bold enough to rebuild the world we see today and return sovereignty to users.

My greatest accomplishments are my kids. We homeschooled our kids. This is Sabrina at 6 and at 15. If you have 2 minutes - I’m Proud of the results
My job is to get them ready for life, and I thought the best way to do that was take responsibility for the early years rather than turning them over to teachers & schools that are overwhelmed.

What’s happening with China’s economy?
I don’t know.
I don’t think anyone does.
Economies are complex systems, too big and dynamically predictable to understand.
But something is definitely happening.
I think that China is being scared.
Scared to spend money.
Scared to go out and eat, drink, and be merry.
Scared to make love, to live life.
“Economy is bad.”
“Ai will take my job.”
With its manufacturing (atoms, not bits) China probably has the most AI-resistant economy in the world.
And things are getting cheaper every year.
Salaries are rising in most places while food is less.
Imagine that.
But people just aren’t spending.
It feels like the country and its people has worked itself into a psychological funk that it cannot break itself out of.
The solution is to just stop being scared and go out and live.
Meanwhile, America needs to the opposite.
It needs to stop being stupid.
It needs to save, stop doing drugs, work harder etc.
Like I said in the video, both countries would be better off if they imitated each other a bit.
America, stop being stupid.
China, stop being scared.

So uh, what the fuck, this is a story for the ages if true, I can’t believe I’m alive rn. I’m too stupid to explain this well but it seems that Levent and an NYU professor nearly solved Navier-Stokes (or vibe collabed with frontier models to do it, mostly Claude and Codex). Per the prof, OpenAI caught wind of it, threw a team and massive compute at it after the leak, and now claims their model finished it. He asked if they’d trained on his Codex sessions with all his drafts in them. No answer. They offered to post their result the day after his and publicly say he “deserves the Clay Prize,” or let him write it up solo with Levent dropped as an author (because he works for ant, this is all about ipo hype ig LOL). He said no and that he’d go public. Open ai C suite guy then says:
“Why would you ruin your career?”
“If you don’t want me to be nice, then I don’t have to be nice.”
Wtffff am I understanding this right?
Galois-tier math lore (if we don’t get vibe paperclipped first)
TIL: Right lower back pain that runs in my family — same side, same spot apparently can be explained by genetics.
And its real: disc disease / chronic LBP heritability ~30–60%, plus large GWAS loci and family risk for symptomatic lumbar disc disease
HLA-B27 / axial SpA is the named inflammatory exception if morning stiffness + family AS/psoriasis/IBD.
Anyone else? What did imaging or rheum actually find?
