SpaceX has exercised the option to acquire @cursor_ai in an all-stock transaction with the goal of building the world’s most useful AI models.
For the past few months, SpaceXAI has been jointly training a model with Cursor, which will be released in Cursor and Grok Build soon.
We look forward to working closely with the Cursor team to advance our frontier AI capabilities
Sri Lanka now exports more code than tea. Let that sink in.
For the first time, ICT/BPM exports overtook tea in April 2026 $146M vs $100M.
And the gap is only widening.
Projections for full-year 2026:
IT/BPM: ~$1.78B (+22.6% YoY)
Tea: ~$1.31B (−6.8% YoY)
Projected annual gap: ~$470M
What was once a tea-and-textiles economy is quietly becoming a knowledge economy.
Talent, code, and engineering capability are now out-earning the leaves that defined us for a century.

You're here for the data as mentioned in @megalag's video linked below. I'm redacting parts of the data, it will come out soon. There's another video waiting which will be published first before this release.
Please be patient.
In the mean time, like & share the video, it's an incredible piece of work. I commend Megalag's ability to do an incredible deep dive into this shady world...

Wow!
A witness just testified in front of Congress that the government has recovered “non-human” pilots from UFOs.
What. A. Time. To. Be. Alive. https://t.co/dWydIrRBYb
