Sports betting and prediction markets are eventually going to converge. Binary bets work for teams but they don’t reflect player prop outcomes. There needs to be a continuous payout structure.

Imagine: you “trade” Mahomes and he doubles his projection. You 2x your money.

Knicks won the NBA Finals.
Sam Darnold won the Super Bowl.
Indiana won the National Championship.

Apply for your dream job.
Buy your dream car.
DM your crush.

2026 is the year to just go for it all.

hi, i'm abhi!

just moved to sf for the summer, so figured i'd do a quick intro.

i'm a sophomore at columbia studying cs + economics. currently spending the summer forward deploying with a few startups while researching how operational intelligence compounds inside organizations through workflows, context, and decision-making.

few things abt me:
- grew up in texas
- have a 2000+ spanish streak on duolingo
- will happily talk about startups, fintech, AI, economics, or the nba for hours
- trying to explore as much of sf (and cali) as possible this summer

if you're building something interesting, tryna hoop, or just wanna grab coffee, reach out :)

I made a sports geography game where you're asked to pinpoint locations of 5 questions. I'd appreciate if you gave it a shot

A WSJ analysis found 67% of Polymarket profits goes to just 0.1% of accounts, while most traders are in the red. Most Kalshi users also lose money. https://t.co/Bq3Ei9e8WD

Glad everyone is able to hedge on Chennai Super Kings vs Kolkata Knight Riders, which is the most traded event of the day at Kalshi so far.

Any day now all the other stuff will be bigger than sports.

For social-media simulations, it's important that agents stay grounded in human behavior. That's what @NousResearch 's Hermes model excels at. So excited to have won their track at #yhacks.🔥

To keep agents human-centered over long-running simulations (where behavior drifts as noise stacks up) we ground them in neuroscience: running each agent's feed through Meta's TRIBEv2 to predict fMRI activations, injected as a "subconscious state." The agent feels the outrage but can't articulate why. Just like a real person.

@NousResearch + Mirofish + TRIBEv2 = human-grounded social media simulation.
