Israel is explicitly warning Christian and Druze residents in southern Lebanon not to hide Muslim residents among them as their forces advance.
Not a peep from Sheryl Sandberg.
An extremist group in Washington, DC has claimed credit for the terrorist attack on the Iranian bridge, promising further attacks on civilian infrastructure if its demands aren't met
Step 1 in deescalation must be restraining the Israelis, otherwise all efforts to negotiate will follow this pattern:
POTUS publicly announces deescalation.
Israel takes major strikes to destroy the negotiations & in turn weaken our ability to negotiate.
The war accelerates.
Two years.
That's how long my team and I have been working on Focus, our next-generation SocialFi app launching this week. It is very much a "MAXIMUM viable product" designed to question every aspect of how we think about our identities and our finances on the internet.
Focus doesn't just improve on BitClout's token mechanics, it re-imagines them from the ground up, and mixes on-chain identity with finance in a way that nobody has ever really attempted before.
I personally think it will do quite well; in fact, I would really be surprised if it didn't go pretty viral. But it's the kind of product where I've poured so much of myself into it that I don't even care how it's received anymore.
It's an experiment I've put 100% of my energy into for years now. But I've enjoyed every minute, and I can't wait to see what you think of it.
Have seen more concern on CNN today for inanimate objects in Tel Aviv than the 1,000 plus Lebanese including many women and children who were killed by Israel with US bombs.
Why is Poker such an addictive game? Why is it so much more popular than other games of skill?

@VictorPontis@dennisstevens_@glowwallet E.g. deep in your settings there’s some “manual verified address” and the user needs to manually enter a wallet address to this and that entry expires by default after one transaction or something
@VictorPontis@dennisstevens_@glowwallet Agree and this is an important point. A less nefarious analog is maybe mobile apps which train users to hand over permissions. But maybe you could provide an override that isn’t easily gameable by burying it deep in some settings and requiring some sophistication to use
