Sam Watson isn’t just my son…. He is yours too! Check what your son what just did in Bali, Indonesia: (Video with sound)

I see your profile picture. That’s Johnny Cash. My hero too. Arrested seven times. Smuggled 668 amphetamines across the Mexican border in 1965. Took every drug there was and drank like I did. Cheated on his first wife. Slept with more woman than I ever did. Hit bottom in a cave in Tennessee in 1968 trying to crawl off and die. And then he got up. He got clean. He spent the rest of his life singing for prisoners and addicts and the people the country threw away because he knew he was one of them. That was the whole point of the Man in Black. He wore it for the poor and the beaten down. He wore it for the prisoner who has long paid for his crime. He wore it for the ones who never heard a word of Jesus. He wore it for the addicted and the dying. He wore it as a standing witness that no one is past saving. You picked his picture. You did not pick his message. Try listening to the words.

If anyone has any experience with anything or knows anything about something please let me know

Opus 4.6 extended feedback on my tweets below.

If you cant seem to get 2 tickets to any event, try searching for singles (1). There is significant evidence that the LA Olympics trickle singles out every hour every 15-20 mins.

Two guys ran an entire hacking operation in a PRISON for months In 2015, two prisoners in Ohio were assigned to a recycling program where they dismantled old computers Instead of scrapping the parts, they started stealing them Carried components over 1,100 feet past guards, metal detectors, and multiple security checkpoints Then built two working PCs and hid them behind a plywood board in the ceiling of a training room closet They ran cables from the ceiling into the prison's own network Stole login credentials from an employee by watching him type his password Set up Bitcoin wallets, Stripe accounts, bank accounts and credit card applications using another inmate's stolen identity Downloaded VPNs, the Tor browser, password cracking tools and what investigators called "a large hacker's toolkit" Created fake security passes to access restricted areas of the prison This entire operation ran for months They only got caught because one of the computers used so much bandwidth it triggered an automatic alert The Inspector General said it was "almost as if it's an episode of Hogan's Heroes" Two guys with recycled computer parts and a ceiling tile built a cybercrime operation inside a state prison

Two German kids met at a middle school hackathon. Then they built a 22-ton tunnel boring machine, beat every university engineering team on the planet, and won Elon's Not-a-Boring Competition in Las Vegas. They were 21 and 23. Then they pivoted to AI. Raised $15M from General Catalyst at a $100M valuation in September 2025. Six months later, $300M. The product? An AI assistant that lives inside iMessage. You text it like you'd text a friend. It reads your email, manages your calendar, pays your invoices, rebooks your flights. One conversation thread, one tap. The insight most people are sleeping on: Poke chose the hardest possible distribution channel and that's why it's working. Every other AI assistant built a standalone app. Download it, create an account, learn the interface, remember to open it. The activation energy is enormous. Poke skipped all of it. You already open iMessage 80 times a day. The AI just shows up in the same place your group chats live. 6,000 Silicon Valley insiders beta tested it over the summer. 200,000 messages per month. Near-perfect retention. The beta users included people from Dropbox, Google, OpenAI, Anthropic, and Founders Fund. That retention number is the real signal. AI assistant apps have historically brutal churn. People try them for a week, forget to open the app, and never come back. When the assistant lives in your texting app, there's nothing to forget to open. The habit already exists. $100M to $300M in six months is a 3x on valuation with presumably very little revenue. Investors are pricing in the distribution insight, not the current financials. Two kids who figured out how to bore through solid rock figured out how to bore through the App Store's monopoly on user attention. The tunnel was always the metaphor.

There are still two types of people in the universe. There are people that still think that this really old story about @jaysonstreet and my kiddo is funny, even after all these years. And then there is everyone else. Which type are you?

There are two types of people in the universe. People that will think this story about @JaysomStreet, @defcon, and my son is funny. And the rest. Choose your side.

Wow... What a thread!

this is cool af and probably deserves a full talk at a con

What I see in cybersecurity: AI has re-invigorated an industry that was largely stale for the past ten years. Complete new green field. Changes everything. New innovation happening everyday. Need to adapt or be left behind. This reminds me of the early 2000s, it’s exciting, addicting, and it’s going to be fun as hell.
