🤯 This is a website, a simple web-based game built with WebGL and Three.js. Website: messenger.abeto.co It's honestly surprising how far web development has come.

The Japanese are exceptional

This Thai developer is making a post-apocalyptic submarine shmup with metroidvania-style exploration, where you blast through sunken cities battling 20 colossal machine-hybrid sea monsters with a great look! It's called Earth Atlantis 2, do you want to play?

Elon Musk did not become a different person when he landed in America. In South Africa, he may still have been brilliant, restless, and ambitious, but the environment would not have given him the same room to build SpaceX, Tesla, Neuralink, and everything else. Talent matters. The country you build in decides how much of that talent can become real.

A new Science study shows that bumble bees can position a ball underneath a fake “flower” to reach a reward, suggesting they can exhibit spontaneous problem-solving and challenging the notion that such advanced cognitive abilities are exclusive to large-brained vertebrates.

You did what countless people said was impossible, and you did it time and time again.   Today is your day. You deserve this. May it be a glorious one.

Elon Musk was born in South Africa but SpaceX, Tesla, and Neuralink were born in America. Talent is the seed. Capitalism is the soil. There is no other country on earth that grows it like this. That's uniquely American 🇺🇸

🚨 BREAKING: THIS GUY MIGRATED TO THE U.S. FROM MEXICO AND WORKED AS A WELDER AT SPACEX HE RECEIVED $10,000 IN STOCK AND WAS PAID $28/HOUR FOR 10 YEARS AFTER IPO HIS $SPCX STAKE IS WORTH AROUND $1,000,000 HE IS ONE OF 4,400 EMPLOYEES WHO BECAME MILLIONAIRES TODAY!!

Elon just created 4,400 millionaires in a single day. 400 of them are now worth over $100 million. These aren't VCs. They're SpaceX employees, and the list includes welders, technicians, and cafeteria staff, because for two decades the company paid every level of the workforce in stock instead of higher salaries. Juan Hernandez immigrated from Mexico and took a $28 an hour contractor welding job in 2015. He says he didn't even know what SpaceX was. The company gave him a $10,000 equity grant and let him buy more shares through payroll deductions. That stake is now worth $880,000. Trevor Hise's parents wanted him to take a stable job at General Electric. He picked SpaceX instead, stayed 12 years, and accumulated over 100,000 shares. At the $135 listing price that's $13.5 million. He's 37 and semiretired. His words: "The magnitude of this has been ridiculous." The most telling detail came before the listing. Over 100 employees quietly banded together and negotiated a group wealth management deal covering up to $5 billion, because none of them had ever needed a wealth manager before. Software IPOs have minted millionaires for 30 years. This is the first one where the money went to the factory floor.

Looking forward to taking our exciting partnership with Nvidia to the next-level

Ukrainian drones are now autonomously intercepting Shaheds. A @BRAVE1ua developer has created a tech that automates 95% of the interception process—from launch to target destruction. The system successfully completed its combat trials in the Kharkiv region. The operator simply selects the target, and the drone autonomously tracks and neutralizes it. It took less than a year to get from prototype to real-world deployment. We are scaling autonomous defense tech to rewrite the rules of modern air defense.

The Construction of Medieval Castles still blows the mind. A stunning 11th-century fortress perched on the rugged northeast coast of England in Northumberland. One of the largest inhabited castles in the UK, it stands as a breathtaking reminder of medieval engineering.
