Software is dead
Long live software
This is the doom I predicted a few days ago, coming for Photoshop. A clean-room open-source reimplementation.
No prizes for guessing that they decompiled Photoshop to source code, processed that to some kind of non-code specification language, then fed the spec to an LLM with an instruction to generate Rust.
Adobe just got nuked. And closed source is dead, dead, dead.

I’m proud to finally share the spec trailer for KINGDOM COME - a feature-length screenplay that weaves 18 of Jon Bellions existing songs into an original story, similar to the way Mamma Mia! built a new story around ABBA’s music.
A few years ago, I heard Jon Bellion talk about a dream of his: to one day make the music for an animated movie
Jon has been one of my favorite artists for a long time, and that idea really stuck with me
So I used his existing discography to write the movie
The story follows Leo, a talented working-class kid from Brooklyn who chases his dream of becoming a musician, only to discover that the ambition that carried him to the top is the same thing tearing his life apart
I’ve spent the last few years quietly working on this idea, and this trailer is our attempt to show what the project could be.
I’m incredibly grateful to Jonathan Serota and Open Industry Studios for believing in the project and helping me bring this trailer to life, and to @kellyneedleman_ and James Evenlind for directing and animating it. And for @bgurley and the RDAD Foundation for funding it. It was awesome to work with talented creatives who labored over the details while using new tech to bring this vision to life.
If you watch it and want to see this come to life, I’d genuinely appreciate your help getting it some buzz. Whether that means sharing it, sending it to someone who might know Jon or his music, or even just tagging @jonbellion , I know we can make it happen.
Its been a labor of love to get it made, hope you enjoy

Everyone has been asking me what I’m up to after the @continuedev acquisition
The answer: I wrote a paper with Disintegrator titled *The Superdark Factory: Toward the Full Automation of Software* that was published in Antikythera (MIT Press) today

The 3F x Steakhouse USDC Vault just crossed $20M in deposits on @Morpho!
The vault is built around a simple conviction: upgrading the financial rails doesn’t change the fundamentals of finance. Trust, reputation, regulation and good risk management still matter.
The 3F x Steakhouse USDC Vault starts with high-quality, regulated RWAs with professional underwriting. Yield is organic with no incentives in order to gauge PMF for lending against quality collateral, targeting a 100-150bps premium to SOFR.
Thanks to the depositors who are helping us build this new fixed-income market that should scale to billions of savers around the world.
Also grateful to our early partners @steakhousefi, @FalconXGlobal, @M11Credit, @centrifuge, @JHIAdvisors, @SuperstateInc, @Bitwise
$20M down. Trillions to go.

Most people think starting a company without a co-founder is a bad idea.
We believe the opposite: solo founding will be the default way great companies get started.
Applications are now open for the Solo Founders Program.

Tokenized cows just backed a farm loan on Brazil's stock exchange
Ten dairy cows in Paraná became the first tokenized livestock collateral on B3, Brazil's stock exchange, backing a loan worth about $19,400. Each cow carries a digital ID generated from AI sensor collars tracking its health in real time.
Banks usually cut up to 60% off livestock collateral because they can't verify an animal is even alive. Live monitoring removes that discount just as Brazil's farm bankruptcies have nearly quadrupled since 2023.
Cowmed already monitors 100,000 cows worth around $395M and projects a fifth could be pledged within two years, stretching RWA tokenization from T-bills into working farm animals.

People hate this take, but cooking will go the way of the farming

In illiquid markets like RWAs, the borrower’s discipline is your downside protection.
For the first time, Morpho lenders and curators can be more discerning about their borrowers through 3F’s permissioned, programmatic borrow markets
Good comms on FDIC insurance on @N3XTinc site
Most people have no idea what FDIC actually insures, and just think insured = safe
