Here's what we built at ETHGlobal New York 2026 hosted by @ethglobal: 💬 Realm – E2E Social Messaging App for Humans and Discoverable AI on the blockchain Check it out here: ethglobal.com/showcase/realm…

Two global powerhouses? Oh please, I see only ONE. Singapore is what competent governance actually looks like. It's pro-growth and has strong rule of law. They CANE vandals, graffiti scumbags, and anyone who thinks they can trash a world-class city. Imagine that? The streets are clean and safe for families. Merit and results are favored over feelings and cheap sloganeering. You? You took one of the greatest cities in human history and ran it straight into decay and decline. Knife crime has exploded on your watch, phone snatchings have soared, and the rate of robberies and violent crime with injury are way up. Young Londoners are so terrified to walk certain streets that many have moved to safer towns in the countryside. The streets are filthier, the tube is far more unreliable and chaotic, and businesses and talent are fleeing London. Your woke policies are the EXACT OPPOSITE of Singapore's and the results are clear. And don't get me started on how you've poisoned race relations. London is now a seething cauldron of division and resentment. While Singapore builds unity through shared standards, forced integration, and zero-tolerance enforcement, you've peddled woke grievance politics that pit communities against each other. You've obsessed over "structural racism" and "anti-Blackness," pushing narratives that scream institutional guilt at every turn, all the while anti-white sentiment and antisemitism have surged to horrifying levels on your watch. Jewish Londoners living in fear, synagogues needing extra security, streets filled with chants that call for their destruction. You downplay it, equivocate, and let the marches roll on with kid gloves. Two-tier policing has gone off the charts with police being harsh on some protests, soft on others depending on the identity or cause. Native Londoners and white working-class communities feel abandoned and demonized, while certain groups get a free pass. Your own office even put out garbage claiming a White family "doesn't represent real Londoners." You've fanned the flames of resentment instead of demanding assimilation, excellence, and color-blind law and order. So sorry, but London *was* a powerhouse, but that was before your tenure. It's not anymore. In 1946, a young Lee Kuan Yew stepped off the boat into a battered London still licking its wounds from war. Amid the mess, he witnessed something miraculous - an unsupervised newspaper stall at Piccadilly Circus. People stopped, dropped their coins, took their paper, and walked on. There was no attendant, no fear of theft. “This,” he thought, “is civilisation. A high-trust society where men police themselves.” He carried that vision home. In the 1960s, as Singapore stumbled out of colonial rule - poor, swampy, fractious - Lee vowed to forge his city state into that London he saw first hand. Over time, Lee transformed Singapore into an orderly, courteous, disciplined, garden of trust rising from a chaotic swamp. Now the tables have turned as London, once the beacon, slides into low-trust decay. It's only accelerated under your leadership. It went from high-trust to low-trust to now, negative trust. There's actually a huge trust deficit now. The former colony has now surpassed its former colonial master as the latter forgot how to govern. Singapore actually has the playbook. Since you're there, you might as well learn from the best.

Great teammate for my first Hackathon

Woh !

As a result of a US government directive, we are suspending access to Claude Fable 5 for all users. You can continue to use all other Claude models. Here’s what this means for you: Across Claude products, new sessions will run on your selected default model or Opus 4.8, and existing Fable 5 sessions will end with an error. On the Claude Platform, requests to Fable 5 will also return an error. Please update your integrations to other Claude models. We know this is a disruption to your workflows; we appreciate your patience and support.

Interesting 🧐

The number one question I get asked: "What field of software/blockchain should I study for the best job prospects?" "Should I do Rust, cross-chain, privacy, distributed systems, security..." But that's not what the real question is. The question behind the question is often: "Is there a shortcut I can take to earn good money in software with relatively little effort?" Here's why I know the hidden question often exists: If you want a guaranteed high salary in software, just be really good at it. Solve hard problems, prove you are a chad, and money will rain down on you. Want to make a lot of money? Work at X or Goldman Sachs or something. But of course -- that requires a huge amount of hard work to get employed at a place like that. That is the hard work that a lot of people try to sidestep with a shortcut study plan. If you are genuinely unsure of what to study, study the CS fundamentals. Topics are easy to learn if you already know a related topic, and CS fundamentals are related to everything. When the day comes to lock in and pick a domain-specific subject, having the fundamentals down will make it easier to learn.

Claude Fable 5 has been out for a couple of days. Some projects people have already built with it:

Today, I’m releasing never before seen intelligence revealing new evidence of past US government funding for more than 120 biolabs in over 30 countries, including Ukraine. In support of President Trump‘s Executive Order to end federal funding of dangerous gain of function research around the world, and increase transparency and accountability, ODNI will continue working with partners across the Administration to identify where these labs are, what pathogens they contain, and what “research” is being conducted. odni.gov/index.php/newsroom/…

Now merged on main! More optimizations to come!

If you're starting to learn ZK or cryptography, getting familiar with a finite field library is important. One that we use extensively in our courses is the galois library for Python. It's excellent for learning. Combined with another library such as py_ecc, which implements elliptic curves, it's possible to write Groth16 and PLONK from scratch. But it's also very useful for simply experimenting with polynomials, roots of unity, interpolation, NTTs, and many other concepts in finite fields.

New for Apple developers: Foundation Models support for Claude lets developers use Apple's Foundation Models framework to call Claude for multi-step reasoning, code generation, and longer context.

Under President Trump, the State Department is defending the integrity of U.S. citizenship by ending illegal birth tourism schemes. No foreigner is permitted to obtain a visitor visa for the primary purpose of acquiring U.S. citizenship for a child by giving birth in the U.S.
