April 2020 was my entrance to becoming a crypto builder! https://t.co/mP57kgB6hJ will only be possible once mainstream adoption is realized. https://t.co/WtIFIE0cOg is the foundation for @jdshutt and I to do what we dreamed of 5 years ago. We want to create a future that lets regular people have accessible, reliable, and safe experiences using crypto the way Satoshi imagined.

Jensen Huang, CEO of Nvidia:

"Every engineer is going to have and manage hundreds of agents."

The most valuable engineering skill of 2026 is not taught in any university.

No CS program teaches harness engineering.
No bootcamp teaches agent memory architecture.
No degree prepares you to build systems that survive production.

One builder mapped the entire thing out — free, step by step, no degree required.

This is the roadmap ↓

We’re here to make crypto deliver on its promises. Natural language commitments are here.

@edgaralandough Cool, I do all three on a daily basis through the Pacer App

Yes, Sam — but brains are far more energy efficient than computers.

Brain: 20 watts
AI: gigawatts

Biology wins.

Naveen Rao (@NaveenGRao) CEO, @unconvAI
Konstantine Buhler (@Konstantine) Partner, @sequoia

TLDR: Biology currently delivers far more general intelligence per watt than silicon.

"Why can we not build a computer that acts like biology? The single thing that hit me when I was an undergrad, like 30 years ago, and that’s when I learned about 20 watts of energy in your brain, and just how biology kind of does computation. It doesn’t really do computation, by the way. It’s like dynamical systems, but we can get into that later.

My whole career has been about that, actually. When I came out of undergrad, I was like, “Okay, well I wanna build computers. How do I build those?” So I actually became a computer architect. I worked on UltraSPARC III and a bunch of processors, then did a bunch of ASICs, then went back to school to do a PhD in neuroscience.

And I’m like, “Okay, now I know how to build a machine. I’ve done it several times, sort of from scratch.” I’m still no closer to the answer of why computers aren’t as good as brains.

At that time, we didn’t really understand what brains were doing. I think now we kind of do, but at that time we almost thought of brains as sort of magical."

"But Naveen pointed out this is the moment to dramatically reduce power, which everybody knows is, if not the, major constraint of AI, and have a trade-off that’s much more reasonable in the AI world."

Making new friends at @EthereumDenver while ducking out of events to finish grading and submitting scores for 45 Vegas nonprofits for federal funding. Posted up at the hotel getting it done before midnight.

My braid phase, which is one of my protective styles, that I stopped after getting criticized by a casting director.

Even my cat's pissed off about it.

[Vanessa Conyers @Nesseps]

@taem1ch @gmltony Mine looks similar to yours

[OyaChat 🧠💬💭☁️🌩️⚡️ @OyaChatApp]

In the near future, new custom agents will be built and deployed immediately to serve every intention. We're creating the infrastructure. Months, not years.

[Vanessa Conyers @Nesseps]

@Ricburton @SawyerMerritt @farzyness Why doesn’t it have a rear window? Or is it one of those one-way transparency windows?

[Vanessa Conyers @Nesseps]

@john_keim This is beautiful! 😍 Renderings sometimes look better than the actual finished building. I love all the green roofs on the adjacent buildings. I wish these buildings had green roofs too. I worked in DC for half a decade and don’t recall DC having many of them. Wish they did!

I use Claude nearly exclusively in my workflow.
So two weeks ago, I installed the desktop version. It’s been a slow start to adopting it since I tried to use it to make a pitch deck from my notes using Slides, but the Google integration wasn’t available for me. Need to play around with it more for sure and look up all the use cases.

[Vanessa Conyers @Nesseps]

@YIMBYLAND @GregTomaselli Maybe this is correlated with the decrease in tourism in the United States. I don’t think it’s entirely just because passengers are tipping the scales less. These weight loss drugs aren’t entirely safe. They’re just exploiting people’s insecurities.

[Pavel Paramonov @paramonoww]

Crypto cards just died.

[Dave @dave_krugman]

Actually love that, and genuine question, doesn’t it seem like monetization within the platform is leading to a lot of the same behavior? Bots seem worse than ever before and people are so incentivized to spam reply on popular posts. Is there any way to mitigate that behavior and make this place feel more authentic again?

So much signal getting lost in the noise here

[Vanessa Conyers @Nesseps]

@M_Zot_ike @dave_krugman @nikitabier Do you have docs or a demo on how you do this? Sounds dope! I've been tinkering with the details of my ambassador program and want a way to filter this sort of thing at the poster level and engagement level: impressions, likes, and replies.

[Vanessa Conyers @Nesseps]

@OyaChatApp I want to set up automatic monthly deposits to earn yield. Even better would be if it automatically moved my money to higher yield opportunities.

[OyaChat 🧠💬💭☁️🌩️⚡️ @OyaChatApp]

In our DMs, we're hearing yield optimization, limit orders, custom hedges, and more.

@malekanoms "I don’t know about you, but I don’t think Congress should pass laws to protect bank shareholders and executives, and certainly not at a time when their stocks are at all-time highs."

Love this quote and article!
