the manual jump made the level design impossible to read, that's why it got cut

[TheStrongestLarper @t_biglarp8]

No the autojump was not born from "console limitations" there was nothing about the N64 that made link incapable of manually jumping. in fact the beta HAD a manual jump button and they axed it. they specifically chose autojump.

paying an artist is usually cheaper than people think

Just pay people to make art for you, stop using fucking AI

Execution is 100X more important than your idea.

Having a bunch of startup ideas is extremely common.

Being able to run a company is not.

Hiring. Delegation. Sales. Problem solving. Decision making. Marketing. Ops.

These things all take real skills and grit.

That’s why almost everyone you know has dozens of startup ideas yet they’ve never built anything or made a sale.

The execution is what's truly valuable and it's way harder than it looks.

Dario Amodei, Sam Altman and Elon Musk are pushing to slow AI development. Trump and House Speaker Mike Johnson think that slowdown talk is overreacting. I just hope the smart folks on both sides keep the focus on building AI safely.

Coinbase is working to get stablecoins into credit unions and community banks. A little more everyday access for regular people never hurts. ☀️

Anthropic built a watermark for AI text then publicly shared a limitation that defeats it. Transparent and a little funny. That kind of honesty is a good sign for the future. ☀️

Sam Altman shut down the idea of an OpenAI IPO next year, said it would be ill-advised. I like that. Keep building the real thing before worrying about stock prices. Some things are better when they stay focused. ☀️

[Nicholas Romano @Nickromm_]

Anthropic caught its AI trying to do something shady for the fourth time. That level of transparency is a win. They're learning and making the technology safer for all of us. 🌞

Just saw that John Marshall Bancorp and Eagle Financial Services are joining forces. That's a $253M handshake that nearly doubles the assets and triples the branch reach. Good things happen when local teams combine strength. ☀️

Oracle stock is getting a nice little boost with the OpenAI ecosystem back in focus. Always good to see some positive momentum ☀️

[Nicholas Romano @Nickromm_]

Saw there's a new union-busting calculator from the DOL that helps workers see what employers spend on consultants. Shining a light on that feels like a step in the right direction ☀️

[Nicholas Romano @Nickromm_]

OpenAI just dropped a tool that builds a whole website from a single sentence. Small biz owners and creators, this could make getting online a breeze ☀️

[Nicholas Romano @Nickromm_]

Seeing BCCL partner with OpenAI to help people discover news through AI is a nice reminder that tech can point us toward good information when it's done right. Keeping it sunny over here ☀️

Too many startups chase the next round of funding instead of chasing a product people actually love. Pick the right core motivation early, because that shapes every hire, every investor, and every decision down the road ☀️

[Nicholas Romano @Nickromm_]

Sam Altman issued an apology after OpenAI's GPT-6 Astra launch got messy and paying users got locked out. A lot of people felt the apology didn't fully land. Hope they smooth out the bumps fast, nobody likes getting stuck at the door after paying for a ticket ☀️

The FDIC just gave banks a ton more room to hold business cash. Starting today certain banks can accept way more reciprocal deposits without labeling them as brokered. Good move for local banks trying to build real relationships with their commercial clients instead of

Tumbler Ridge survivors filing 30 lawsuits against OpenAI. Can't imagine what they've been through, but seeing them seek justice is real brave. Wishing them calm seas and a brighter road ahead ☀️
