BREAKING: Ukraine has carried out the world’s first medical evacuation of a human via a drone from the battlefield the 30th mechanised brigade of Ukraine managed to save their injured comrade from a minefield.
Just absolutely insane.

An MIT professor gives a student $5 and says: send any amount to a stranger in this room. Whatever you send triples. The stranger decides how much comes back.
Rational answer: send nothing. You lose every dollar you trust.
Most students send almost everything. Most strangers return more than half. The math says keep it. The room says otherwise.
Then the professor runs a different game. Same cash. Same room. One student splits. The other can only accept. No rejection. No consequences.
The offers collapse. Not to zero. But enough to see the line between generosity and strategy.
One year a student got Swiss chocolate instead of cash. She was lactose intolerant. Gave away 100%. The professor noted it. The class laughed. Nobody noticed the point.
She had zero cost of generosity. The moment giving costs nothing, everyone is generous. The moment real money hits the table, the room divides into the same two groups every semester. People who send first. People who wait.
Labor, capital, arbitrage, insurance. Four ways to make money. All four require the same opening move.
You send value before you see a return. A paycheck after the work. A deposit before the interest. A bet before the edge. A premium before the claim.
The lecture is free. MIT filmed it years ago. The game runs every semester. The split barely changes.
Sending first is free. Knowing if it comes back is the part that costs something.

Robots are taking over construction sites!
Wall finishing is one of the most labor-intensive jobs in construction. Applying putty, sanding surfaces, and painting still require hours of repetitive manual work.
China's HX Precision has developed the HX33-W, a 3-in-1 wall finishing robot that handles all three tasks.
The robot automatically applies and smooths putty, sands walls, and paints surfaces, navigating construction sites without continuous manual control.
According to the manufacturer, it delivers 4–6× higher productivity than traditional manual work, reaches heights of up to 3.3 meters, and operates for 6–8 hours on battery power.
What's interesting is how specialized these machines are becoming. Instead of trying to automate an entire construction site, they focus on repetitive tasks where labor costs, consistency, and productivity matter.
Construction has been notoriously difficult to automate. Robots like this could start changing that.

AI will write the newsletter.
AI will read and summarize the newsletter.
Eventually, someone will stop pretending there is a human in the middle and eliminate both the design and the need to communicate in English.
It'll just be a machine-oriented payload of 1s and 0s.

I wrote a blog post to share my AI agents setup (hand-written by me, not by AI).
Key ideas behind how I achieve maximum productivity:
1. Persistent memory (version-controlled skills library)
2. Recursive self-improvement
3. Scalable parallelization

I have discovered $50 amazon photo frames to be the PERFECT home display screen
They can be rooted, updated to run a modern browser, have WiFi and can be powered from USB
1280×800 resolution with a nice touch screen

It took me 4 hours to Vibe-Build this table today
I asked Claude Code to generate a little step-by-step simulation wizard (took 5min)
You can do the same in any other physical space: building a house, fixing a car, surgery, learning pretty much any physical craft...
tbh, WTF

I'm testing the Russian bots, because traffic from Yandex bots is currently close to zero (check Cloudflare Radar). That's because Ukraine has imposed a ban on them — by firepower.
So I'm going to say the following things, which will most likely generate organic, authentic, human traffic, but without the bot traffic. Let's see:
* russia is a criminal state;
* russia is a terrorist state;
* russia is ruled by a criminal regime;
* Putin and the entire russian leadership, from 2014 and 2022 onwards, should find themselves inside the courtroom of The Hague Tribunal;
* Ukraine is defending itself against all of russia's attacks, pressure from the Trump Administration, and shipments of sophisticated components from around the world, including Europe;
* The Ukrainian people are, first and foremost, the ones whom we in Romania — and the Republic of Moldova as well (or especially) — should thank for keeping the russian Army at bay;
* The European Union is the best thing that has happened to Romania since the Great Union of 1918;
* The United States of America under Donald Trump has become nothing more than an empty shell of the values and principles it championed for decades;
* Donald Trump is a convicted common criminal, now also suspected of pedophilia and other forms of sexual abuse against girls and women in connection with the Epstein files;
* Elon Musk is an individual who has absolutely nothing to do with ethics or morality, not even remotely.
Feel free to add other things that might attract the bots' attention, and let's see whether they're still operating or not.

Infinex wallet is, by far, the best wallet on the market
not even close
Self-custody/onchain has felt risky for years, which is when I started using Infinex. I don't feel any of that now.
Among many reasons, not being tied to any one device is a huge upgrade
