Strength is almost never tied to bright, flashy moments in development or making money. More often, itโs the ability to keep moving forward for a long time with no clear results and no confirmation that youโre doing things right. Intelligence and talent matter, but endurance is what decides
Most people break not because of mistakes, but because of expectations. People wait for quick signals, while reality delivers delay. Strength is continuing through that gap without dramatizing it or making excuses
Thatโs usually exactly what demands the greatest effort in life
Every morning, the moment my eyes open, I wake up to 40 unread Slack messages that effectively say:
โIf you donโt fix this in the next 5 minutes, the world will implode and the app will cease to exist.โ

OpenAI Robotics is hiring, looking for exceptional full-stack hardware, ops, systems, and ML engineers to help us program and manufacture robots that are useful for society.
AI should be able to help people in the physical world. In the short term, we are focused on robots to support skilled workers to build our future infrastructure; in the long term, we imagine everyone having a personal robot doing anything they need.
Our world simulation research program, led by Aditya Ramesh (@model_mechanic), has evolved over the past year into OpenAI Robotics. Progress is rapid, and based on a foundation of co-design between robotics hardware and ML research.
If you love working hands-on across the robotics stack and want to build the future, please consider joining us. Send an email with your background and evidence of exceptional accomplishment to: [email protected]
the win condition for btc is clear:
>hedge against inflation because central banks will always print more money
this is the narrative that propelled bitcoin from 7k to 126k
however the narrative of ai growth presents a grim path for crypto
ai accelerates the path to quantum
quantum poses a risk to digital money more acutely than it does to gold
btc should not have to endure another cycle of flows where that is the ceiling concern
the hedge against inflation needs to be a hedge against the future dangers of technology
proof of work is poised perfectly to address this, as quantum & even the most advanced ai will not generate electricity
the efforts to tackle this ambiguous future should start today & i believe if it did there would be renewed cult like excitement around btc and the entire asset class
the writing is on the wall, the times are changing
the sooner the better
surreal i can have an agent manage my portfolio directly in claude cowork, hermes, codex
trading, earning yield, borrowing, payments all uniquely enabled by being onchain where i don't need someone to give me permission to use my money
possibilities are endless thanks to the new base mcp
Illinois just passed one of the strongest frontier AI safety laws in the country.
OpenAI was proud to endorse SB 315 because it takes a thoughtful approach to issues like transparency, audits, and incident reporting.
With Illinois joining New York and California in passing frontier AI safety legislation, states are increasingly aligning around a common approach. Together, they are beginning to create a de facto national framework. We think that's a positive thing.
You got it. Direct deposit is live on Coinbase.
Route your paycheck (or some part of it) directly to Coinbase to auto-invest it, lend it out, or spend with the Coinbase One Card to earn up to 4% on every purchase.
Try it out: tap "Deposit" -> "Direct Deposit" from the Home screen on mobile.
We believe the next billion-dollar crypto companies will not look like exchanges or your typical crypto wallets.
They will look like consumer banks for the internet generation.
and it is going to be @ryderwallet
AI should dramatically increase quality of life and individual freedoms for people around the world.
The OpenAI Foundation is making an initial $250M commitment to measurement, transition support, and new approaches to broadly shared prosperity.

@cremieuxrecueil In this case, we found that this account and 3 of his friends were automating replies with agents.
Proofreading content with AI is fine, but programmatically engaging with human users is not (unless itโs a bot that a user summons like Grok).
14 years ago Coinbase was a simple Bitcoin wallet.
Today, we offer millions of assets (including non-crypto like equities and commodities), and provide better financial services to millions of people, builders, and institutions.
Grateful to our team, customers, and the community that's been part of the ride. Our goal is to help 1b people access an open financial system.
