Though they were prophets and messengers of Allah, they were humans and had feelings like us.
Mosa feared, Ayyoub fell ill for a number of years, Ya’qoub was saddened over losing his children till he got blind, Yunus was remorseful, Loot was tested with a disbelieving wife while Yusuf was tested with the betrayal of his own siblings and Nooh lost both his wife and son when they rejected his message and refused to accept Islam, May peace and blessing of Allah be upon them all.
Allah consoles His messenger Mohammed salla Allahu alaihi wa sallam by saying:”And each [story] We relate to you from the news of the messengers is that by which We make firm your heart.”
Therefore, be patient and be firm. Many of the feelings you are going through today, a prophet of Allah had gone through it before you.
@1SeulCreateur Plutôt l’armée des idiots… Satan est certes le plus avili d’entre eux, mais il demeure moins stupide : il admet en ce qu’ils renient, mais s’abandonne, par orgueil, à sa fatalité, par mépris de l’Homme qu’il voudrait voir plus misérable que lui, c-à-d stupide et tout aussi avili
In retrospect it is surprising that OpenAI released o1-preview. As soon as they showed off reasoning, everyone copied it immediately.
And if they had held off releasing a reasoning/planning model until o3 (& called that GPT-5) it would have been a startling leap in AI abilities.
📢We show that continuous latent reasoning has a theoretical advantage over discrete token reasoning (https://t.co/oSBQOGM3y9):
For a graph with n vertices and graph diameter D, a two-layer transformer with D steps of continuous CoTs can solve the directed graph reachability problem, while the best known result of constant-depth transformers with discrete CoTs requires O(n^2) decoding steps.
The underlying idea is like classic vs quantum: continuous thoughts can encode multiple candidate graph paths simultaneously and does an implicit "parallel search" with such "superposition", while discrete token sequence can only take one path at a time.
Yeah man crypto is the future, let me bring you up to speed
First, TerraUSD collapsed, a massive Ponzi scheme where investors were promised 20% APR on their USD ($20B in UST and $40B in LUNA wiped out)
This caused the largest crypto hedge fund to go insolvent due to excessive leverage, 3AC ($3B AUM wiped out)
3AC borrowed funds from all the largest crypto lenders, each of who went insolvent after bank runs inevitably occurred, causing a market wide credit crunch
Celsius ($12B AUM, $1.2B deficit), Voyager ($1.6B AUM, ~$670M default), BlockFi ($3.9B AUM, $400M revolving credit)
Voyager and BlockFi were bailed out by FTX/Alameda, but ah turns out they were complete fraud too
With $10B of customer funds siphoned from FTX to cover Alameda’s losses, a bank run took place, creating a second contagion wave, leaving Voyager/BlockFi rekt again
Genesis Lending, under the DCG conglomerate, also went bankrupt due to Alameda/FTX exposure ($3B shortfall)
Gemini was lending $900M in customer funds to Genesis, so they and their customers inevitably got wrapped in the mess too
No doubt TradFi is involved in this too, with the collapse of two banks that were key banking partners for crypto
Silvergate (FTX’s banking partner and ran an payment network for crypto exchanges) experienced a bank run and collapsed after losing $1B on bonds
While SVB (Circle’s banking partner for USDC and most tech startups) experienced a bank run and collapsed after losing $1.8B on bonds
Not looking too good for Signature Bank either, which runs the ‘other’ bank payment network for crypto exchanges
Can’t forget the SEC trying to strongarm the industry from shutting down Kraken’s staking product to calling Paxos’ stablecoins a security and shutting down BUSD, and much more
Various banking regulators also strongarming banks into refusing to onboard crypto companies as clients, forcing them overseas and to use sketchy counterparts
Anyways
Have you heard of liquid staking derivatives and re-staking? Pretty cool financial engineering right there, crypto innovation never stops 💪
