opus 5.5 is now live on grok bot...
this is a dangerously powerful combo for building a 24/7 quant research desk.
agent swarms to research ideas. cursor agents to build and backtest strategies.
{here's how to build it}
→ quant desk lead
x.ai/bot/n8nC9GmY6ZBdnTE0zRs…
→ market intelligence
x.ai/bot/fikscKtQ-EYcDksv-L6…
→ quant researcher
x.ai/bot/mthHv9pksQ6KNBr-hAc…
→ validator
x.ai/bot/M0xhuQl4vjLdWj6l3lW…
→ risk controller
x.ai/bot/eK9lF3ZkDKI6-4gqDoU…
→ portfolio adviser
x.ai/bot/FRPgDTB8gD_iSm6aWIp…
→ execution operator
x.ai/bot/794hIWjgfm5XGVkyIyU…
run the whole desk under one constitution: no agent grades its own work. no lead overrides the risk limits.
start with the desk lead. give every agent a role before you give it a task.

30 things for Securitymaxxing your vibe coded app:
- Move every API key out of your frontend
- Add .env to .gitignore before your first commit
- Rotate any key that ever touched GitHub
- Turn on Row Level Security for every table
- Never trust the client. Validate on the server
- Check auth on every API route not just the UI
- Check ownership: can user A read user B's data?
- Rate limit login, signup & password reset
- Rate limit your AI endpoints before someone drains your credits
- Set hard spending caps on OpenAI, Anthropic & your cloud
- Use parameterized queries. No string-built SQL
- Sanitize user input before rendering it (XSS)
- Lock CORS to your own domains, never "*"
- Use HTTPS everywhere with HSTS on
- Set secure, httpOnly, sameSite cookies
- Hash passwords with bcrypt or argon2 or use a real auth provider
- Expire sessions and tokens
- Add CSRF protection on state-changing requests
- Validate file uploads by type and size & store them outside your app server
- Make storage buckets private by default
- Verify webhook signatures (Stripe, GitHub, etc.)
- Never return stack traces or raw errors to users
- Strip secrets and PII from your logs
- Run npm audit and update vulnerable packages
- Check that the packages your AI suggested actually exist
- Guard LLM features against prompt injection
- Never let the model run tools or SQL without limits
- Add security headers (CSP, X-Frame-Options)
- Back up your database and test a restore
- Ask your AI to attack your app before someone else does
Shipping fast is a skill.
Shipping safe is what keeps you in business.

Tucker Carlson asks why algebra puts letters into numbers.
Jess Elofson explains: "I think just to fuck with you."
They discuss how they've never met anyone in their life who uses algebra, which is "fake math" for people "in the matrix."
They conclude that caring about algebra is something that only "good little goy slaves" do.

🚨BREAKING🚨: The former Director of Research at the NSA and the CTO of the entire U.S. intelligence community believes UFOs are real and says one of the most credible hypotheses is that an ancient and advanced civilization existed on Earth, possibly co-existing with and evolving alongside humans.
Former NSA official, Dr. Eric Haseltine, believes his ancient Earth origin theory works because tectonic subduction and erosion would have erased all superficial evidence, meaning the only place proof would ever surface is in archaeological and paleontological digs or extreme deep-sea missions (where some of these beings could still reside, trying to avoid humans). Haseltine held the highest science and technology clearances across all 18 U.S. intelligence agencies. His strong belief on UFOs: a small number of reports represent something genuinely real that no known physics and engineering can explain.
Dr. Haseltine also revealed that the American government has capability to create “controllable ball lightning” using lasers that ionize open air into zero-mass plasma, a capability now covered by a Navy patent for making aircraft decoys, which he admits may also account for some of the UFOs both civilians and fighter pilots are seeing: an object with no mass could theoretically accelerate at extreme speeds and look like its breaking conservation of momentum. Finally, he’s done a deep investigation into Havana syndrome; he’s personally interviewed many of the victims and believes the attacks are real directed energy weapons from adversaries that the intelligence community psychologically cannot accept and has limited defenses for. He joins me with his wife Dr. Chris Gilbert, an MD and PhD who also thinks deeply about UFOs, for a wide-ranging discussion. Full conversation is live now.

Wow.

This includes transformers, transmission lines and conductors, substations, and high-voltage circuit breakers.

Oh cool nothing big to see there for $onds just a $457 million backlog
Ondas completed its merger with Mistral which increases Ondas backlog to $457 million while establishing direct access to U.S. defense contract vehicles, including U.S. Army and Special Operations programs.
The merger also introduces a dedicated program capture capability to support long-term growth across defense and homeland security markets while enabling scaled deployment of autonomous systems. $ONDS

In case you haven’t worked it out yet…
• SpaceX and Blue Origin are the railroads.
• The moon is the Louisiana purchase, Mars is the West Coast.
• AI is the pioneers, and your kids and grandkids are the settlers.
People ask…
“But what is the business case for space?”
The answer is “America”
In the industrial era, no sector has ever been quite as big a deal as railroads.

Peter Thiel buying in Buenos Aires 🇦🇷…
most people will think it’s random
it’s not
the Southern Cone is one of the most compelling long term plays right now
Peter Thiel's $12 Million USD New House in Palermo Chico
The property is located on Dardo Rocha Street and was completely gutted and renovated by the previous owners. It has about 1,600 m2 covered.within the ultra-exclusive Barrio Parque enclave (also known as Palermo Chico).
The mansion was designed by Alejandro Bustillo, one of Argentina's most historically significant and celebrated architects (famous for designing the Llao Llao Hotel in Bariloche and the Mar del Plata Casino).
It is an iconic example of the French Academic style, featuring the classic stately facade that characterizes the most historic, European-influenced properties in Buenos Aires.
This is chump change for Thiel but the closing of about $12 Million sets a new ceiling for residential real estate in Palermo Chico. This is one of the most exclusive areas of Buenos Aires.
Expect to see more millionaires and billionaires buying real estate in Buenos Aires. It is very cheap for a world capital city.
