I don’t know who needs to hear this but we don’t have to eat our food at WeWork.

SITUATION EXPLAINED: Joshua Levine (.@JoshuaTLevine) from @JoinFAI explains the quantum moment and what it might mean for encrypted communications and cryptocurrencies. "I’d say there have been two recent breakthroughs that really stimulated this whole conversation and got the crypto world focused on quantum technologies. One came out of work connected to Caltech, which is now being spun out into a commercial venture. The second came from Google’s quantum unit. What both papers helped clarify was the estimated qubit count, especially the physical-to-logical qubit ratio, which gives us a sense of how large and complex these systems would need to be in order to run algorithms like Shor’s algorithm." "The NSA and NIST, the National Institute of Standards and Technology, have already released guidance on post-quantum cryptography migration. Large banks, major financial institutions, and governments likely have the capacity to move into a post-quantum cryptography environment." "The concern is especially acute in the crypto community, and particularly among Bitcoin holders, because Bitcoin is built on distributed ledger technology. It is not centralized by design, so there is no single authority that can simply flip a switch and say, “We’re all migrating now.”"

We’ll have any talented and desirous person in search of Liberty! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇺🇸

Another speed runner. I think we should call this phenomenon “The American Cannon Ball” in reference to the great American tradition of driving coast to coast as fast as humanly possible.

This guy is speed-running America and it just may be the greatest story ever told. Is the World Cup the best cultural exportation program in history? Might be!

AI is forcing reengagement of the knowledge economy with its physical foundation. SF and NYC suddenly care a lot about skilled trades, worker training, and tech diffusion—just this week, @Google, @AnthropicAI, @Meta all made major commitments.

HOLY SCHMITT! What a play, @SenEricSchmitt! 🔥

Further cost reduction could be achieved using @Starlink, no?

Sir, this is NOT a chicken coup.

Did they interview a single GWOT veteran? Where are the bronze castings of our heroes? Where’s the emotional appeal? Where’s the SOUL?!

But AI was supposed to kill us, no? Yay for American innovation. Let’s all agree to not kill this thing before we reap the rewards, okay?

Did you know President Martin Van Buren’s first language was Dutch? Grew up in a Dutch speaking town in NY and didn’t learn English until later in life. Pretty wild!

The smugness is tangible 😂. What a world.

Why mandatory age verification for AI is the wrong policy response @taylordbarkley, director of federal government affairs at The Abundance Institute: "That is the equivalent of the government saying, 'We need your papers before you can use computers.'" "AI is computing. It'll continually be integrated into more and more of our computing." "That's a really dangerous road to go down... privacy issues, security issues, but also speech issues when the government is saying, 'You cannot access certain tools without proving who you are and your age.'"

????? The government has not been shut down for the last 15 YEARS. It has been funded. This has to do with custody and stewardship. Seems like @Interior just started giving a shit.

I was on @CNN with @jaketapper and @JaredEMoskowitz really stepped up.

How do you think news outlets operate?

Stolen Space X tech

The reports are real. Took my first @united flight last week equipped with Starlink. Unbelievable speed and a fantastic sign in process. Bravo to all involved @SpaceX
