⚠️ One more reason to dislike Flock: “The Guardrail Guy” a dad who turned his daughter’s death into a national safety crusade is now documenting how many Flock cameras are installed illegally without required breakaway bases, meaning they can turn a crash into a lethal spear.

I sat down for a rare interview with Taiwan’s Vice President, @Bikhim. Must-watch insights from a leader operating at the center of where history is shaped every day.

Most of us spend years trying to change outcomes without examining the internal framework producing them. This article gets to the root by examining and then stripping away the conditioning that keeps you from becoming fully yourself and finding your bliss. Great read @thedankoe !

Apple's newest patent turns your AirPods into an EEG device that also reads muscle movement, eye movement, and heart rate. Neuralink has performed four human brain implants. Apple has hundreds of millions of AirPods in active use. Steven Hotelling is on the inventor list for patent US20230225659A1. He's the engineer who productized multi-touch for the original iPhone. Apple puts Hotelling on things it plans to ship. The design packs 17 electrodes around a single ear tip. Ear-EEG has existed in academic research since 2011, and startups like NextSense (spun out of Alphabet X), Neurable, and IDUN already ship consumer ear-EEG products today. Apple's innovation is dynamic electrode selection. Here's the constraint that killed ear-EEG as a consumer product for 15 years. Every human ear canal is shaped differently. A fixed electrode placement that reads clean EEG from one person reads noise from the next. Your own ear canal changes shape across a day based on temperature, jaw position, and how the bud seated when you put it in. Every prior ear-EEG product required either custom molds or tolerance for garbage data. Apple's patent uses more electrodes than are ever needed simultaneously and runs an AI model that scores each one in real time on impedance, noise level, and skin contact quality. It picks the best subset for this person, in this ear, right now. Reference and active electrodes get reassigned on the fly. A weighted algorithm combines the surviving signals into one optimized waveform. Competitors tried to solve this with better electrodes. Apple solved it with redundancy and silicon. The roadmap is already visible. AirPods Pro 3 shipped a photoplethysmograph in the ear tip for heart rate. In November 2025, Apple Research published PARS, a self-supervised model that learns EEG patterns from unlabeled data and sidesteps the regulatory bottleneck of annotated clinical datasets. The PPG sensor is the dress rehearsal. The EEG sensor is the feature. Sleep staging. Seizure detection. Stress classification. Focus state. The clinical applications get through the FDA. The interface applications change computing. Neuralink needs a surgeon. Apple needs a firmware update.

BREAKING: Just five minutes before Trump's announcement to halt the attacks on Iran, massive trades reportedly hit the market. In one move, $1.5 billion in S&P 500 (ES) futures was bought while $192 million in oil (CL) futures was sold. These orders were 4–6x larger than anything else at the time. The trader seemingly made huge gains. Unusual.
