ICYMI: ⚡️ Polkadot launched dotUSD, a decentralized stablecoin governed by the DOT DAO through OpenGov.

dotUSD is live on Polkadot.
Today a handful of companies issue and control most of the world's stablecoins worth more than $250B.
Like banks, they decide who can hold them and who can’t.
dotUSD is based on a different premise. It has no issuing company and no single point of control.
The DOT DAO governs it through OpenGov.
Polkadot now has a stablecoin that belongs to its network.

@a16z now has a 2 year student program in SF
in my opinion this is a private hiring syndicate
and we're about to see MANY more firms do this
think about it for a second..
why are they opening academies and spending millions on fellowship programs?
a16z new media fellowship, a16z speedrun fellowship
why?
because they have 200+ companies in their portfolio
this is their main hiring funnel
through these fellowships they find young talent
and the best students go directly in their portfolio companies
basically
have fellowship programs > train young talent > hire the same talent
might be the best hiring model i've ever seen ngl

It’s when Islamists hijacked passenger aircraft, killed crew members and crashed the planes into the twin towers.
You may be supporting Hamas and “the resistance” but September 11, 2001 is when it started.

I worked at Google DeepMind and now at Anthropic. This is a common sentiment amongst my peers.

There is not yet a viable scientific plan to solve risks from recursively self-improving AI. Please look up!

He's not lying.
AI is growing dangerously fast. We should rethink about our choices.
