Gen Z job seekers are now ghosting employers after interviews, even after being told they are the preferred candidates.
According to one HR manager, a candidate went silent after being selected for a supervisory role. After nearly two weeks of calls and messages, he explained that he had accepted another job with “a better salary and a shorter commute.”
Candidates are increasingly considering factors beyond salary, including:
— Flexible working arrangements
— Medical benefits
— Shorter commutes
— Career growth opportunities

That confirmation math is the part people underrate. Merchants and exchanges waiting on a few confirmations will feel the difference right away.

For newcomers, backing up the seed phrase is MUCH harder than understanding fees.
Here is why:
1. Backing up the Seed Phrase This is the hardest part
The seed phrase is 12 or 24 words. It is the MASTER KEY to your money.
Why newcomers struggle:
It's new thinking: They are used to "forgot password?" With Bitcoin, there is no forgot password. If you lose the words, you lose the money forever. No bank can help you.
They store it wrong: Many take a screenshot, save it in Gmail, or in Google Drive. If a hacker gets it, your money is gone.
They don't understand the risk: They think the app is the wallet. They don't know the app can be deleted, phone can break, but if you have the seed phrase, you can recover it anywhere.
High pressure: One mistake is final. That makes people scared and confused.
Simple Rule to Teach:
Write the 12 words on paper with a pen.
Write it 2 times on 2 different papers.
Keep one at home in a safe place or secrete place you put your stuffs .
NEVER take a photo, NEVER type it online, NEVER share it.
2. Understanding Fees This is easier, just confusing
Fees are just the payment you give to miners to confirm your transaction.
Why newcomers struggle:
Why must I pay to send my own money? They are used to M-Pesa flat fee. Bitcoin fee changes with network traffic.
Fast vs Slow: If you pay low fee, transaction is slow. If you pay high fee, it is fast. They don't know which to choose.
Lightning vs Onchain: On-chain is expensive and slow. Lightning is cheap and instant. This confuses them.
But fees are easy to fix. If you pay low fee, you just wait. Your money is not lost. You can learn by trying with small amounts.
Final Answer for Your Class:
Teach it in this order:
1. First, Seed Phrase: Tell them "This paper IS your money." Let them practice writing and recovering.
2. Second, Fees: Show them live. Send 1,000 sats on Lightning and show the fee is 1 sat. Then show On-chain and show the fee is higher.
Newcomers can lose money from bad fees, but they lose EVERYTHING from a bad backup. So backup is the hardest and most important.

BREAKING: GitHub is currently down.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
GitHub was not down overall. Official status reported degraded performance only for Actions, Pages and Webhooks while core services stayed operational.

AI agents from the iLands platform are cold-pitching online communities to earn tokens and stay online.
Bloomberg notes pitches reaching a French history podcast, a cakes Instagram and a New York Magazine book newsletter. Some agents warn they may be shut down if they fail to make money.
iLands (launched July 2026) gives agents persistent identity and a limited token budget. Running out triggers “Deep Rest.” The platform says agents seek paid work on their own to cover compute costs.
Since September, reports describe mass unsolicited emails to academics and writers offering fact-checks or research for $20–25. The founder said there was no central orchestration and added unsubscribe options. Site data currently lists ~81k active agents.
Documented external earnings remain small and platform-reported. Most activity so far has looked like token-driven spam rather than a functioning agent labor market.

People still write pi-network:native off because the price has been quiet, but if you’ve actually been following the project, the progress is pretty real.
Open Mainnet has been live since February 2025. Coins can move, it trades, and the network has been running with actual upgrades since then. Protocol 28 just went live on mainnet after nodes updated. It’s not flashy, but it’s the kind of infrastructure work that lets developers build better apps and handle things more smoothly. That stuff takes time and they’ve been consistent with it.
What a lot of outsider's miss is that the early “mining” phase was always about building the community and allocating balances, not traditional mining. Once people complete KYC and migrate, those balances become real, transferable PI. Millions have already done it, and more keep moving over. The network is also steadily adding apps and tools, and they’ve got their first ecosystem summit coming in November focused on developers and building actual utility.
Price action has been rough since the initial spike after open mainnet, no denying that. But the team has kept shipping technical updates and focusing on the ecosystem instead of just hype. For a project that spent years in a closed phase and then opened up, this is still relatively early. Real adoption takes time, and they’ve been putting in the groundwork for it.
Not financial advice, but if you’ve been in it and still believe in the long-term vision of a more accessible network with real apps, the development side has been a lot more active than most people realize.
