Video games slow brain aging:

A 2025 study by McGill University found that game brain training for 10 weeks restored cholinergic function to levels seen in a younger brain.

Action games improve attention and reaction time, while strategy games enhance problem-solving skills.

@bigpey To be fair, he did warn us about The Island, The Ocean and The Pond.

We all thought we were on The Island...

After 41 years, the greatest sci-fi cult classic of the '80s is officially getting a sequel https://t.co/Q6nDHZO72L

@IOHK_Charles I love Cardano & Charles, but I do think he's causing Ada's nose dive out of the top ten. Especially with videos like this that feel like he's dumping on us.

If Ada went over a dollar again, why wouldn't anyone left who still believes the vision not sell out to buy into 4th gen?

An update on our engagement with @Mastercard.

While Cardano was not included in the initial cohort of 85 launch partners, @emurgo_io has been actively engaging with their APAC team to change that and ensure our ecosystem is represented.

Following a leadership transition at Mastercard APAC —where our primary contact moved to EY — we have successfully connected with his successors. They were excited to speak with us and I am pleased to share we are now in the Qualification Stage for the Global Crypto Partner Program.

With the continued support of the Cardano community, I am confident in a positive outcome.

This important:
Please like and share to show @Mastercard the strength of our ecosystem. Mastercard is a global firm.. we need to show them that our inclusion into their Partner Program will make a difference to them. Surely this is an initiative the entire Cardano ecosystem can support! #cardano86

Let's go!!!

@jasonappleton Any chance you could request an interview with @IOHK_Charles to talk only about Cardano?

In one of his recent videos he seemed to think bad Cardano sentiment was only coming from bots but it's more serious than that.

Does Cardano's future now rest entirely on Bitcoin defi?

[Ian @immutablemind]

@ArmyofSpies Has anyone on X or YouTube made an in-depth case for Cardano in this new landscape? Charles calls everyone who can't see it an idiot but he really isn't advocating clearly for Cardano at all anymore. I don't see Bitcoin defi is a guaranteed win for Cardano just because of eUTxO

@elonmusk Feels a lot like Gotham City. Every time I use "Twitter" now it's like the joker (@elonmusk) is laughing at me.

Logging out of X.

How 6502 Illegal Opcodes Really Work

The 6502 is known for its illegal opcodes. Out of 256 possible opcodes, only 151 are defined by the architecture.

This article explains where the remaining 105 undefined opcodes come from:

@conraddit In case it's helpful, it gets easier when you're able to move more from business operator role to business owner role

@hoskytoken Hang on, they chose an existing unicode character for the new logo?

[Ian @immutablemind]

@NathanGuergis @jack I'd forgotten it had light mode

[Ian @immutablemind]

@armyofspies For me it's a question of who holds the keys. At the moment only IOG can update the protocol and they need either CF or Emurgo (but not both) to also sign of off.

@GenZod7 I came from ETH. I was looking into staking on the beacon chain and I really didn't like the staking model and thought there must be something better.

I was blown away by how much better ouroboros is. Haven't owned any ETH since.

In Cardano, I like how the sausage is made...
