The one comment I'll make is that I feel bad that @solana and other projects are getting hit in this way. They don't deserve it, and if ethereum ends up "winning" through all other blockchains getting kicked off exchanges, that's not an honorable way to win, and in the long term probably isn't even a victory.
This is especially true since the real competition is not other chains, it's the rapidly expanding centralized world that is imposing itself on us as we speak.
I wish all honorable projects a fair outcome in this whole situation.

Peter Thiel is a closeted macro Hedge Fund manager. Everything he’s done in tech is a side quest. His main quest is to notice macro trends, connect dots, be a contrarian, develop a thesis that incorporates social psychology/philosophy/history, and then bet on it.
Most Software Engineering careers:
1. Write code
2. Lead architecture decisions (write less code)
3. Manage (write zero code)
Why so many SWEs believe that success means not writing code??

If they make it to the weekend without being taken over by the FDIC colour me surprised.
I never realized how much the media hates Elon until this week
Twitter gets criticized for $8 verification, yet no one talks about Instagram copying the strategy at almost double the price
The SpaceX launch, despite the unsurprising explosion, was a success and an incredible step forward for humanity, yet the media paints it as a failure. If NASA did the same thing, praise would dominate headlines
Something doesn’t add up
My entire Master's program is free online.
Yet most people won't go through it because they won't get a certificate.
