uma das coisas mais irritantes na construção portuguesa é o padrão "empresa fénix".

a empresa antiga acumula problemas, fecha, fica inativa, entra em insolvência ou simplesmente desaparece.

depois aparece outra: novo NIF, novo nome, nova imagem.

mas muitas vezes a pessoa por trás é a mesma.

isto não é fácil de ver, e ninguém vai andar a perder horas e horas a cruzar gerentes entre empresas antes de assinar uma obra de 40k, 80k ou 150k.

o @ObraXRAY faz esse cruzamento com uma única pesquisa.

se a construtora é nova, mas o gerente vem de empresas com insolvências, dívidas ou processos relevantes, queremos que isso apareça antes de alguém transferir o sinal, ou dar 50% do valor da obra.

R.I.P. Coinbase!

[Brian Armstrong @brian_armstrong]

This is an email I sent earlier today to all employees at Coinbase:

Team,

Today I’ve made the difficult decision to reduce the size of Coinbase by ~14%. I want to walk you through why we're doing this now, what it means for those affected, and how this positions us for the future.

Why now
Two forces are converging at the same time. We need to be front footed to respond to both.

First, the market. Coinbase is well-capitalized, has diversified revenue streams, and is well-positioned to weather any storm. Crypto is also on the verge of the next wave of adoption, with stablecoins, prediction markets, tokenization, and more taking off. However, our business is still volatile from quarter to quarter. While we've managed through that cyclicality many times before and come out stronger on the other side, we’re currently in a down market and need to adjust our cost structure now so that we emerge from this period leaner, faster, and more efficient for our next phase of growth.

Second, AI is changing how we work. Over the past year, I’ve watched engineers use AI to ship in days what used to take a team weeks. Non-technical teams are now shipping production code and many of our workflows are being automated. The pace of what's possible with a small, focused team has changed dramatically, and it's accelerating every day.

All of this has led us to an inflection point, not just for Coinbase, but for every company. The biggest risk now is not taking action. We are adjusting early and deliberately to rebuild Coinbase to be lean, fast, and AI-native. We need to return to the speed and focus of our startup founding, with AI at our core.

What this means
To get there, we are not just reducing headcount and cutting costs, we’re fundamentally changing how we operate: rebuilding Coinbase as an intelligence, with humans around the edge aligning it. What does this mean in practice?

- Fewer layers, faster decisions: We are flattening our org structure to 5 layers max below CEO/COO. Layers slow things down and create coordination tax. The future is small, high context teams that can move quickly. Leaders will own much more, with as many as 15+ direct reports. Fewer layers also means a leaner cost structure that is built to perform through all market cycles.

- No pure managers: Every leader at Coinbase must also be a strong and active individual contributor. Managers should be like player-coaches, getting their hands dirty alongside their teams.

- AI-native pods: We’ll be concentrating around AI-native talent who can manage fleets of agents to drive outsized impact. We’ll also be experimenting with reduced pod sizes, including “one person teams” with engineers, designers, and product managers all in one role.

In short: AI is bringing a profound shift in how companies operate, and we’re reshaping Coinbase to lead in this new era. This is a new way of working, and we need to leverage AI across every facet of our jobs.

To those who are affected
I know there are real people behind these decisions — talented colleagues who have poured themselves into this company and our mission. To those of you who will be leaving: thank you. You’ve helped build Coinbase into what it is today, and I am sincerely grateful for everything you've done.

All impacted team members will receive an email to their personal account in the next hour with more information, and an invitation to meet with an HRBP and a senior leader in your organization. Coinbase system access has been removed today. I know this feels sudden and harsh, but it is the only responsible choice given our duty to protect customer information.

To those affected, we will be providing a comprehensive package to support you through this transition. US employees will receive a minimum of 16 weeks base pay (plus 2 weeks per year worked), their next equity vest, and 6 months of COBRA. Employees on a work visa will get extra transition support. Those outside of the US will receive similar support, based on local factors and subject to any consultation requirements.

Coinbase prides itself on talent density. Our employees are among the most talented people in the world, and I have no doubt that your skills and experience will be highly sought after as you pursue your next chapters.

How we move forward
To the team that is staying, I know this is a difficult day. We’re saying goodbye to colleagues and friends you've been in the trenches with. But here’s what I want you to know as we move forward together:

Over the past 13 years, we have weathered four crypto winters, gone public, and built the most trusted platform in our industry. We’ve made it this far by making hard decisions and by always staying focused on our mission. This time will be no different – nothing has changed about the long term outlook of our company or industry. And most importantly, our mission has never been more important for the world. Increasing economic freedom requires a new financial system, and we’re building it.

The Coinbase that emerges from this will be more capable than ever to achieve our mission.

Brian

If the parents would leave their phones while with their kids, it would solve the problem but, myself included, going back to quit my phone feels like I’m an alien! So fix the parents and the rest will follow

🚨🇺🇸 NEW STUDY REVEALS: THE SMARTPHONE CHILDHOOD EXPERIMENT IS OFFICIALLY BACKFIRING

A massive, NIH-backed study just dropped a quiet bomb on modern parenting:

Kids who get smartphones by age 12 face higher risks of depression, poor sleep, and obesity.

Not because of what they do on the phone - just owning one was enough.

Researchers followed 10,000+ adolescents nationwide. Median age of first phone? 11.

And the pattern was brutal: the younger the phone, the worse the health outcomes one year later.

We’re talking increased depressive symptoms, less sleep, higher obesity rates, chronic fatigue, ...

And this held true even when kids had other screens like tablets. The phone itself was the tipping point.

Lead author Dr. Ran Barzilay said the wild part is they weren’t tracking apps or doomscrolling.

They asked one question: does having your own smartphone this young affect your health?

Answer: yes - and not in a small way.

So what's going on?
Phones aren’t just screens - they’re 24/7 social comparison machines, excellent sleep wreckers, attention grabbers and stress amplifiers, ...

They are basically dopamine slot machines wrapped in Gorilla Glass.

You can lock down apps, but you can’t lock down adolescence.

Researchers now want to study kids who got phones even earlier - under age 10 - to see who’s most vulnerable and how to protect them.

Because let’s be real: 95% of teens already have smartphones.

This is no longer a question of if - it’s how do we keep them from cracking under the weight of constant connection?

This is far from a moral panic. It’s the data finally catching up to what every exhausted parent already suspected:

Childhood wasn’t built for push notifications.

Iceyyy playing it cool after losing Creator of the Year to Cagy is incredible. That’s the difference between a community leader and a dude whose entire résumé is: promoting rugs, punching down at poorer regions, and ranking women like he’s ordering from a fast-food menu.

Honestly, the funniest part isn’t even that Cagy won, it’s that a bunch of voters looked at a year of hard work, investigative content, gameplay analysis, actual ethics from Iceyyy and said: ‘Nah, give it to the guy who treats the community like an ATM.’

Imagine voting for the guy whose biggest contribution to web3 gaming is teaching studios how to extract from players, especially the ones from low-income regions who actually grind these games. Peak ecosystem moment.

People keep asking why women don’t participate in web3 gaming. Well… maybe it’s because y’all are out here crowning someone whose content literally treats women like collectibles and whose humor peaked at ‘sexist tier lists.’

If web3 wants to stop bleeding credibility, maybe stop celebrating creators who openly mock people for being poor while promoting projects designed to keep them poor.

yes AI made all of these roasts because all of mine contained far too many exploitative deletes for the algo

🇪🇺 Telegram sent this message to all its users in France regarding Chat Control. People must know the names of those who try to steal their freedoms:

Today, the European Union nearly banned your right to privacy. It was set to vote on a law that would force apps to scan every private message, turning everyone’s phone into a spying tool.

France led the push for this authoritarian law. Both former and current Interior Ministers, Bruno Retailleau and Laurent Nuñez, supported it. Last March, they declared that police should see French citizens’ private messages. The Republicans and Macron’s Renaissance group voted for it.

Such measures are supposed to “fight crime”, but their real target is regular people. It wouldn’t stop criminals — they could just use VPNs or special websites to hide. Officials’ and police messages wouldn’t be scanned either, since the law conveniently exempts them from surveillance. Only YOU — ordinary citizens — would face the danger of your private messages and photos being compromised.

Today, we defended privacy: Germany’s sudden stand saved our rights. But freedoms are still threatened. While French leaders push for total access to private messages, the basic rights of French people — and all Europeans — remain in danger.

Mark Ruffalo goes on an insane rant about replacing capitalism with socialism.

He says that our current system isn’t working.

It’s amazing how many of these celebrities think they know how to make socialism work even though it never has and only causes misery.

A escola já havia fechado.
A menina continuava ali. Sozinha.
A mochila largada aos pés, o olhar perdido no vazio.

Não havia mais ninguém.
Nem professores. Nem familiares.
Só ela... e um oficial que passava.
Ele podia simplesmente seguir em frente.
Podia dizer a si mesmo: "Não é da minha conta."
Mas não disse.

Ele ficou.

Ficou de pé, ao lado dela, feito muralha silenciosa.
Sem perguntas. Sem pressa. Sem pressão.
Apenas presença.
Apenas cuidado.

Ficou até ter certeza de que ela estava segura.
Não por dever, mas por humanidade.
Num mundo em que o mal viraliza em segundos, gestos assim mereciam manchetes.

Porque o uniforme não faz o herói — mas o coração por trás dele, sim.
Obrigado aos que ainda se importam.
Aos que escolhem ficar.

Aos que não precisam de aplausos, câmeras ou likes para fazer o que é certo.
O mundo precisa — desesperadamente — de mais pessoas assim.

@DroegeDaniel With this mindset I bet with you that every streamer would be booming on any new game, people would be curious about something, for example “let’s see if he wins where I loose and why”. I remember first 6 months of MIR4, nobody knew a damm thing and the curious got one step ahead

[Maedin @Maedin10]

@DroegeDaniel Totally agree with you, making videos of the general stuff is all good for me but creating step by step on how to perfectly exploit the game/coin is just retarded. This is why games die after 1-3 months, “too easy=doesn’t make money” 🤷‍♂️
