Is it just me or it’s so stressful to listen to trump ? How can an epitome of poor characters like that exists and be a president of the most powerful country in the world? Or maybe i should just relax more and think it’s entertainment 🤨

Just announced the YC Fall 2024 batch!

Applications are now open and due on August 27. The batch begins on September 29.

Immigration line at tan son nhat airport is absolutely crazy. The crazier thing is that they don’t even bother to open up more counters to help ease the load.

It’s hard to comprehend the deaths of 12,800 children. We put up figures of children on our studio walls - one for each child killed in Gaza during the war.

They’re dying from airstrikes and now malnutrition and dehydration.

These are some of their stories.

Need to submit my tax and social security statements to apply for a Korea visa. It seems to be harder than running for US president!

[Van @VTee210]

Talked to a 9 year old American kid today and explained how he is a millionaire in Vietnam. His first purchase as a millionaire, a private jet!

Just went to a web3 conference and looks like only trading/gambling platforms are the ones that are doing well. When will we have other mainstream use cases of blockchain that’s not purely speculative?

Heard that female executives/founders will be “dumb” after having kids from some investors. This kind of discrimination is what holds women back.

When you think your investment in 2022 is bad 😅

Bob Iger is back at Disney. Which CEOs will also be called back when the companies get into trouble?

[Geoffrey | Chief Digital Officer @geoffrey_see]

The biggest route to onboarding billions of users into web3 is unfortunately still safeguarding crypto<>fiat gateways

[Van @VTee210]

Some changes and experiments in product features of Twitter are better than no change at all. The product has been static for too long.

Binance buys FTX. Is crypto now the most centralized industry?

[Van @VTee210]

Binance started a bank run on FTX - their rival company and acquire it? More proof that real life is stranger than fiction. Lots of source materials for the entertainment industry this year.

Why the vicar in Inside Man protects the pedophile and wants to kill the math tutor instead? The title should be Incredibly Dumb Man.

[Geoffrey | Chief Digital Officer @geoffrey_see]

No one wants to hear about compliance and regulation in web3. But it won't be the last we hear those words in this sector for a long time. Here's a piece with @wef that @PokoFund wrote with their team on the aftermath of OFAC sanctions on tornado cash https://t.co/Wk0KmVZSNT
