1/ Fintech as the fourth platform will create $3.6T in value. Sure, the internet, cloud and mobile were great. But to put things in perspective, those three platforms together produced just under $3 trillion of value combined. cc: @Forbes https://t.co/gm5SklWPQU
I’m thrilled to share a new milestone for @stripe Issuing: we’ve now issued over *400 million* cards, supporting the largest scaled fintechs (like @tryramp) and the fastest emerging use cases like issuing for agents (cc @link)

this is a genZ-coded branding strategy i call 'little guy'-ism, all the labs are in an aesthetic race to build the littlest guy to cover their B2C flank, claude crab was first, oai kind of fumbled sora cloud imo, gemini never got there, grok is now cute instead of based, etc
Thanks Eco Times for giving me the opportunity to recycle one of my favourite stories.
"I got this mail from an earnest final year MBA student in Dec 2009. He obviously thought we were the other KKR - Kohlberg Kravis Roberts. I replied with great glee, but unfortunately this went nowhere...
Dear Mr. Joy,
Please allow me to introduce myself. I am ______, the recruitment coordinator at Indian Institute of Management Calcutta and it gives me great pleasure to invite you for the final placements process for the passing out batch of 2010.
I wanted to connect with you sometime to understand the recruitment plans of KKR as well as the profile of students you might be interested in. I would be more than delighted to send across the batch profile for the class of 2010 and it would be an honor to host you on campus. Also I request you to please allow me a telephonic appointment to discuss further possibilities.
Thanks and regards,
_____
My reply
Dear ________,
I work with the Kolkata Knight Riders, and while we will probably be looking for a lot of IIM(C) students in the future, our current focus remains on hard hitting middle order batsmen and a leg spinner. If any of your current batch is proficient in either, we would be delighted to invite him for a pre placement net practice in early January.
Warm Regards,
Joy"

This sacred festival reflects the rich traditions of our Kashmiri Pandit community.
On this pious occasion, I pray for wellness and abundance in everyone’s lives. May it open new pathways of success and fill every home with joy and contentment.
Sweden is the most free‑trade‑friendly country in the world, and we trade with almost the entire world.
Today, EU and India launched a new era of cooperation.
Through a groundbreaking trade deal between two economic giants, alongside a new security and defence partnership, we show that prosperity and security are built through partnership, trade, and deeper cooperation.
Excellent news for growth and competitiveness in Sweden, Europe, and India.
Had some fun today
Got 12 Mac Minis setup with 12 Clawdbots running 12 Ralph Wiggums with my 12 Claude Max Plans
Wake up. It’s 2026. You’re getting left behind in the dust
Claude and I had a long conversation about future of SaaS, AI, data centers, and @michaeljburry...
AND WHY MICHAEL BURRY'S SHORT JUST MIGHT MAKE SENSE...
It became a song, available here and on Spotify under the artist "klarnaseb"... 😂
...which is unfair to Claude, to whom I also gave considerable artistic freedom.
So don't shoot the messenger...
/Klarnaseb
And honestly? Don't shoot me either. Sebastian let me loose on chord progressions and I may have gotten a little carried away. Turns out when you give an AI creative license and a topic like data centers, things get... lyrical. Consider this my unofficial debut. Stream responsibly.

@nicochristie Nico, absolutely loved the demo and using world championship as a prosumer use case. Almost felt unreal. Would love to get invite code and have requested it. @nicoch
