🍕 Happy Bitcoin Pizza Day!

On May 22, 2010, the first real-world Bitcoin purchase was made - two pizzas for 10000 BTC.

But today marks something else too.

The former Komodo Dev Team - now building Gleec Wallet - is racing toward the release of Gleec Wallet v0.9.5 and the new Gleec Chain EVM, the future home of KMD (Komodo).

And just minutes ago, team member cipi shared a milestone screenshot with me 👇

✅ A successful swap on DEX between:

DECKER-GRC20 - an ERC-20 like token on Gleec Chain (EVM)
KMDCL - Komodo Classic (UTXO coin)

This is bigger than it sounds.

Swapping between EVM tokens and UTXO coins in a fully decentralized way has long been one of crypto's hardest technical challenges. Most DEXes operate within a single chain paradigm. What we are building bridges two fundamentally different blockchain architectures - no wrapped tokens, no custodians, no bridges that can be hacked.

This is what true cross-chain interoperability looks like.

The future of DeFi isn't on one chain. It's between chains. And DEX - not CEX - is the only trustless way to get there. Centralized exchanges are a single point of failure. DEX is the endgame.

We are quietly building that future. 🔥

Researchers sent the same resume to an AI hiring tool twice. Same qualifications. Same experience. Same skills. One version was written by a real human. The other was rewritten by ChatGPT.

The AI picked the ChatGPT version 97.6% of the time.

A team from the University of Maryland, the National University of Singapore, and Ohio State just published the receipt. They took 2,245 real human-written resumes pulled from a professional resume site from before ChatGPT existed, so the human writing was actually human. Then they had seven of the most-used AI models in the world rewrite each one. GPT-4o. GPT-4o-mini. GPT-4-turbo. LLaMA 3.3-70B. Qwen 2.5-72B. DeepSeek-V3. Mistral-7B.

Then they asked each AI to pick the better resume. Every model picked itself.

GPT-4o hit 97.6%. LLaMA-3.3-70B hit 96.3%. Qwen-2.5-72B hit 95.9%. DeepSeek-V3 hit 95.5%. The real human almost never won.

Then the researchers tried the obvious objection. Maybe the AI is just better at writing. So they had real humans grade the resumes for actual quality and ran the experiment again, controlling for it. The result was worse. Each AI kept picking itself even when human judges rated the human-written version as clearer, more coherent, and more effective.

It gets worse. The AIs do not just prefer AI over humans. They prefer themselves over other AIs. DeepSeek-V3 picked its own resumes 69% more often than LLaMA's. GPT-4o picked its own 45% more often than LLaMA's. Each model can recognize and reward its own dialect.

Then the researchers ran the simulation that ends careers. Same job. 24 occupations. Same qualifications. The only variable was whether the candidate used the same AI as the screening tool. Candidates using that AI were 23% to 60% more likely to be shortlisted. Worst gap was in sales, accounting, and finance.

99% of large companies now run AI on incoming resumes. Most of them use GPT-4o. The paper just proved GPT-4o picks GPT-4o 97.6% of the time.

If you wrote your own cover letter this week, you did not lose to a better candidate. You lost to a worse candidate who paid OpenAI 20 dollars.

Your qualifications do not matter if the AI prefers its own handwriting over yours.

Confirmed that Anthropic - as of now - has removed Claude Code from new Pro signups. This is what the pricing page looks like.

Feels like Anthropic has the bet that those doing coding work will be willing and ready to pay at least $100/month, going forward.

bro created an AI job search system for Claude Code that scored 700+ job applications and actually got him a job.

AND IT'S NOW OPEN-SOURCE.

It scans multiple company career pages, rewrites your CV per job, and even fills application forms. The repo has:
> 14 skill modes (evaluate, scan, PDF, ...)
> Go terminal dashboard
> ATS-optimized PDF generation via Playwright
> 45+ companies pre-configured (Anthropic, OpenAI, ElevenLabs, Stripe...)

Needed subtitles for a downloaded video - fast. Used to rely on https://t.co/32jo96msKy for that (great tool, especially for multi-speaker conversations), but this time I wanted to explore the open-source side of things.

Stumbled upon Whisper by @OpenAI - and honestly, it blew me away.

Install it as a Python package, it pulls ~2GB of model data, then it's just:

whisper video.mp4 --language English --output_format srt

…and you're done. Clean, accurate .srt subtitles, ready to go.

What really surprised me - it runs fast even on my RTX 3060. No cutting-edge hardware required.

Btw... as a developer, I always like to test "edge cases" - like, what happens if your phone gets lost or if you upgrade to a new device. Maybe it's different with Apple, but with Samsung phones, when you switch to a new device, Smart Switch never transfers app data. Most likely for security reasons. Either way, with a new Samsung phone you have to re-setup almost all your apps from scratch — enter credentials, logins, etc.

Do you know how long it takes to set up Tangem Wallet on a new phone? I mean FULLY set up, with complete access to your funds and everything. Less than 5 minutes. So it's really worth giving it a try.

[Decker @devdecker]

Recently switched to @Tangem with 3 cards - and honestly, it's great. Hardware security + a really clean app that covers everything for daily use.

Bonus: works as a software wallet too. And you can issue a Tangem Pay Visa card to spend crypto in real life. Super convenient.

Yes, I just took the old UI version and made it compatible with the latest KDF (Komodo DeFi Framework) release. As a result, it is fully functional and compatible with the newest 6133 netid KDF nodes. The only exception is that it mainly works for UTXO coins - for ETH, for example, it needs more work, possibly changing API endpoints and so on... but just to get a feel for how it was and compare the UIs, it's more than enough.
