Hey @ProprXYZ — free trial's disabled rn; support says no ETA. Any rough idea when it's back?
Clicking "Start Demo" POSTs to /v1/checkout-sessions → 400 "billing details required" even at $0. Excited to try it
Wanted to understand Uruguay's agricultural land market — what each region grows, what it costs, how soil quality works. Couldn't find it all in one place, so I built it.
colinrhys.io/projects/urugua…
19 departments. $1,500–$13,000/ha depending on what it grows:
→ Soybeans/wheat (Colonia, Soriano): $6,500–13,000
→ Cattle (north/east): $1,500–3,800
→ Dairy (San José, Florida): $3,500–9,000
→ Forestry (Rivera): $1,600–3,500
→ Citrus (Paysandú, Salto): $2,500–5,500
→ Wine (Canelones): $5,500–9,000
National avg hit a record $4,178/ha in 2025.

My condo is managed by $FSV — a $6.2B company trading at 38x earnings. Got curious, scraped 1,813 press releases, pulled 7 years of filings. Revenue doubled. Margins didn't move. Here's what I found 👇

The vision is right. The execution has to match.
Smart capital is sprinting into sports ownership for a reason. @Chiliz has been ahead of the curve on this. As a Solana guy, I just wish they'd written it in Rust 😅

In the last 12 months:
→ Apollo bought 55% of Atlético Madrid at a €2.2B valuation
→ Thrive Eternal (Joshua Kushner) just took a stake in the SF Giants
→ Bret Taylor, OpenAI chairman, bought into the 49ers
→ Sixth Street, Arctos, Ares, Fortress - all loading up on sports franchises
The smartest capital on the planet is sprinting into sports. Why?
Because sports is the only major industry AI cannot replicate.
Music gets generated. Movies get synthesized. Books get written by machines. Live sport? Nobody is paying to watch AI play a Champions League final.
@alexisohanian (Reddit co-founder, building a sports portfolio) said it last week: "Sport is the last one standing... incredibly durable in the age of AI."
Joshua Kushner used the exact same logic launching Thrive Eternal - a vehicle explicitly built to back "assets with qualities that cannot be replicated by technology."
Franchise values keep climbing. The equity opportunity keeps expanding.
That's why @Chiliz is 100% Sports. Only Sports. We won this vertical - now we're building the financial infrastructure layer for it.
Is it? Governance tokens for a club that was just relegated. CLG hasn’t acquired the club yet (clause 1.1). Board can override any vote (clause 8.2.2). @Colosseum @solana alphafc.xyz/legal/token-term… $ATFC

Does anyone that committed money to this get this? Or nawwwwww
Genuine question for the Solana community before Breakpoint plans get too far — some relevant context on Alfreton Town’s current situation:

If you are promoting $ATFC or recommending it, these are questions you should be able to answer.
Built this after embarrassing myself in Uruguay 😅 - “ahh yo no se”
1,200 days of Duolingo and I froze the second someone actually spoke to me.
This is how you actually get good at a language 👇
Practice → Learn → Use → Review → Repeat
#BuildInPublic - @Remotion is so good
Had a 1,200-day Duolingo streak. Still froze when someone spoke Spanish to me in Uruguay.
Streaks ≠ conversations.
Built @HelloCharla to fix that. Practice the real situation with AI. See your score. Repeat hellocharla.com
#languagelearning #learnspanish #buildinpublic
The language app I made after 1,200 + days of Duolingo did not - hold a conversation in Spanish
This is how I am now better learning Spanish with @YesHelloCharla
Also @Remotion is crazy I am a massive fan - what I used to make this video
Most language apps teach you vocabulary.
None of them prepares you for the actual conversation.
Hello, Charla does. Practice → Translate → Review.

The most annoying set of notifications that are now nonstop from @Snapchat
Its nonstop and caused me to turn off all push notifications 😉
Sounds like @Williamjkelly - Chicago’s favorite reporter!!!
This is absurd #h1b #visa - us jobs should be for USA citizens
