En Brasil, un paracaidista lanzó 100 millones de semillas para contribuir a la reforestación de la selva amazónica

i'm obsessed with AI DIY projects. my favorite one right now is this broccoli farmer in hokkaido, japan using Codex to run his 100-hectare farm this guy never studied agriculture, never inherited land, started out as a civil servant. but he wanted his farm to run better, and instead of paying an engineering firm he couldn't afford, he just built the tools himself. here's what he's built on his own: > remote control of his greenhouse vents from a chat app, wired up with an esp32 board, a motor driver, and cloudflare workers > a bot that checks each greenhouse's temperature and opens the vents when it gets too hot > satellite crop-health data laid over a map of his own fields > an airtable base linking his plots, tasks, materials, and sensors > wiring diagrams of his electrical panels, generated from a photo stuff like this used to be locked behind machinery and engineers only the big agribusinesses could pay for. but this legend just breezed past all of it with a laptop and Codex lol

My daily routine while I had a full time job & building starterstory.com on the side: > 5:43am: wake up > 6:03am: walk to cafe > 6:10am: open laptop > 6:15am: deep work for ~2 hours > 8:15am: close laptop > 8:30am: go to full time job, try to stay sane > 6:00pm: go home, workout, etc > 9:00pm: in bed early, to do it all over again the next morning In less than a year, I handed in my resignation.

what if they’re on a date? 🥰

Officially got screwed by @Ryanair today. I thought being European having traveled to 40 countries meant I’d seen every airline trick in the book. Apparently 𝐍𝐎𝐓. 𝐆𝐨𝐭 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐠𝐞𝐝 £𝟓𝟓 (𝐈𝐍𝐑 𝟕,𝟏𝟎𝟎) 𝐭𝐨 𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐜𝐤 𝐢𝐧 𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐚𝐢𝐫𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭 𝐛𝐞𝐜𝐚𝐮𝐬𝐞 𝐈 𝐡𝐚𝐝𝐧’𝐭 𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐜𝐤𝐞𝐝 𝐢𝐧 𝐎𝐍𝐋𝐈𝐍𝐄!! Not extra baggage. Not a seat upgrade. Not lounge access. Just the privilege of a human being printing a boarding pass. Indians complain a lot about airlines, but trust me, some of you have no idea how good you have it. Spend five minutes with a European budget airline and you’ll come back apologizing to IndiGo and Akasa 😆 Signed, A very humbled first-time Ryanair passenger holding a £55 receipt as a souvenir.

The Scripps Spelling Bee just ended. Ever wondered where all of them end up in life? I analyzed the results for the last 30 years' winners to see. Here are my 3 favorite stories: — Pratyush Buddiga (2002) became a professional poker player and is now a partner at a venture firm — Zaila Avant-garde (2021) is the 2nd black winner ever. She's 18 and holds 3 Guinness World Records in basketball and is a top protect for 2026. — Evan O Dorney (2007) is a legendary mathematician, having 4 IMO medals and 3 Putnam fellowships. Most have gone on to become investors, software engineers, academics and a lot of doctors. Unsurprising, given 30 of the last 36 Spelling Bee winners since 1999 have been Indian-American. Many, but not all, went to "top" universities. Early competitive success usually but not always predicts later career success.

The problem with cheap hotels is the beds. You’re covered in polyester, the pillows are foam instead of feather — just a miserable experience. I would throw out all other amenities if a hotel only offered just that.

@Tesla @TeslaOwnersUK @tesla_uk @wholemars Tesla sneakily has removed one-time £6,800 FSD purchase with £49/month subscription well ahead of supervised #FSD in the UK being granted (Model X with enhanced autopilot so perhaps its £99/month) Great news as its a sign FSD is imminent but terrible news for those on the fence looking to purchase full FSD unless @elonmusk provides a deadline we can buy FSD for

JEFF BEZOS WAS ASKED ABOUT THE CLAIM THAT "YOU CAN'T EARN A BILLION DOLLARS" His entire response was a burger joint: "Let's say you start a burger joint with 10 employees. People love your burgers, so you open a second outlet. Then a third. By the time you've opened 1,000 outlets, you are a billionaire." "This is a real life story. It happens all the time. In-N-Out Burger. Raising Cane's. At what point did that money all of a sudden become unethical? It didn't." His point: "If you create a service that people love and millions of people choose it, you're going to end up with $1 billion." Do you agree?
