Leaving for work this morning, I looked over and saw what was left behind in the cul-de-sac - a hockey net, scattered sticks, and the remnants of what had to be a 15-20 kid street hockey game last night.
And it hit me… I live at Topsail. A beach community in North Carolina. Yet these kids are choosing to play hockey in the street instead of the “traditional” Southern sports you’d expect around here.
That’s what the Carolina Hurricanes @Canes have done for this state. They didn’t just build a fanbase, they grew the game. It’s honestly amazing seeing hockey take root in places as random as a beach town cul-de-sac. 🏒🌴 Happy Gameday!!!

THIS IS ACTUALLY INSANE!🤯
The FBI launched its own crypto token last year just to trap the scammers.
They were sick of pump and dumps. So they built a real token with a real site and real branding, called it NexFundAI, and waited to see who would show up.
Within weeks, scammers were lining up to fake the volume for undercover agents.
Then one of them got on a recorded call and said it out loud. Their entire business model was making regular people lose money so they could profit.
The FBI had all of it on tape.
18 charged. $25M seized. Arrests across 3 countries.
The wildest part? The FBI ran a cleaner crypto project than half the founders out there. And the whole thing was a trap from day one.
@brian_armstrong You can have have multi-az fail over with colocated clients. We had a fail over DC for a high frequency trading exchange. Clients colocated at both datacenters. Some days we ran at the secondary datacenter and one time we had an unplanned fail over and it worked just fine.
@vxunderground They are not the only ones. I have talked to two developers part of FAANG and they said more than 50% of their code now is AI generated. They use agents to automate part of the processes and code reviews now too.

@tanuki42_@blackbigswan@taroaikuchi@Cryptodegen202 I have lived in Japan a large part of my life and speak the language. To me, his English accent gives him away. It has more of a Korean flair than a Japanese one.
@PolymarketStory Some may be insiders but many of these are not insiders just gamblers taking large bets. It becomes apparent when you see the account and see them buying both sides or many lost bets. It's likely why the account name at the top is often cropped off the image.
