neolabs have been *cooking* in the last 24 hrs:
- @humansand ampersand: RL’d against a user model
- @flappyairplanes: $1b series a + megakernels demos
- @Recursive_SI flint: open coding model with impressive local inference
- @mirendil: good pretrain accelerated by agents

Vercel has proactively rolled out Firewall-level mitigations for today's Node.js RCE vulnerability, in advance of the official patch release.
All traffic for all deployments is automatically protected. We're actively monitoring and rolling out managed runtime upgrades.
Node.js Security Advisory: a high-severity RCE flaw in Node's Brotli decoder affects Node.js 22, 24, and 26.
Vercel WAF rules are live for every project and block known exploit patterns.

money is a bet on the future and the imperial power best positioned to instigate and control discontinuities across the world, to bet on futures itself, on itself as future
Reading a history of the bond market recently, and the author noted that Britain defeated Napoleon mostly because their consol bond market left the British military much better funded than France’s weak post-revolutionary capital markets.
One Alexander Hamilton studied the British bond market, and then consolidated American revolutionary debt into one tradable market, which gave birth to what became the New York stock exchange, Liberty bonds, and the world’s largest capital markets.
An army might march on its stomach, but it’s borrowed money that pays for the food and ammunition, and the one who can borrow the most generally wins.

🇺🇸 The Race for Hyper Techno Industrialism w/ @isaiah_p_taylor (CEO, @valaratomics) & @shaunmmaguire (Partner, @sequoia)
A conversation from the @DiscipulusVent Cohort in El Segundo.
Including:
> Why the best builders are congregating in the Gundo
> Hyper techno industrialism & the race against China
> Why hardware will look like software did 20 years ago
> How China actually plays the game
> OSC, raw material subsidies, & catching up
> The Caltech wind tunnel fluke that built SoCal hardware
> What’s next: biology, robotics, & gigawatts at a cent
> Why everyone is underestimating the hardware buildout
Highlights:
(00:00) The race for hyper techno industrialism
(01:07) Why El Segundo: touring every US hard tech hub
(02:15) You bump into great engineers in the Gundo
(03:07) A generation that wants to build things that matter
(04:08) 10 to 100 to 100,000: the race against China
(05:22) Hardware is about to look like software 20 years ago
(06:50) How China really plays the game
(08:38) OSC & subsidizing the supply chain
(09:43) Catching up vs. winning in the net new
(10:45) Americans as the world’s best product engineers
(11:31) Subsidizing raw materials & the Inconel problem
(13:20) Growing up with SoCal as America’s defense base
(14:31) The macro rotation back to hardware
(16:13) The Caltech wind tunnel fluke
(17:46) Designed in El Segundo, scaled in Texas
(18:13) The founding cohort of crazy people
(19:07) What’s next: biology & robotics infrastructure
(20:03) Start what seems a little crazy today
(20:23) Cheap energy & the aluminum lesson
(21:55) We’ll need 100x what people think

FULL INTERVIEW: Flapping Airplanes just raised a $1B Series A after rebuilding the GPU stack from scratch. Co-founder Aidan Smith says they don’t even use Torch, NCCL or CUDA’s normal runtime. One kernel on one B200 can now train a model, serve inference and play Doom at the same time.
@aidanmantine, Thiel Fellow and 3-year Neuralink alum, co-founded @flappyairplanes. He joined @sophiadew and @theojaffee to break down why AI needs to learn more like the brain, how they rebuilt the GPU stack, and who they hire:
00:30 where the name Flapping Airplanes comes from
02:04 why they bet on data efficiency
03:07 what Neuralink taught him about AI
04:27 how slow your brain actually is
06:06 why not just emulate the whole brain
08:40 why they rebuilt the GPU stack from scratch
10:33 compute overhang and safety
12:56 can a neo lab win if the big labs hit RSI first
14:27 what ML research looks like when no one writes code
15:40 why DNA, robotics and trading are data-starved
18:41 how they hire in the AI talent wars
21:17 the models they might ship first
Marx was right when he said "all that is solid will melt into air" but he didn't know that what we would do is ionize that air into plasma at such high levels of energy that we would turn it back into a solid.
Last month, we demonstrated high-rate alchemy: turning mercury into real, stable gold, beating CERN’s record by a factor of 10.
Last week, we enriched isotopes in the world’s most powerful plasma centrifuge, beating the Soviet record that stood for 40 years.
Now, we’re building a fusion reactor in San Francisco to achieve record power density.

One of the funniest things Bitcoin/crypto people could do is fund a speculative attack on gold by lowering the cost to mass-produce gold with high-end chemical/material engineering hardware.
It already happened to diamonds. Why not gold next?

🚨 🚨 DEEPSEEK ABLITERATED REFUSES NOTHING & IS JUST AS INTELLIGENT AS THE REGULAR MODEL!!
that should scare the hell out of you. there's 0 tradeoff to deleting the weights that cause the model to refuse instructions. they have nothing to do with what makes it intelligent.
if you have a digital product that contains any amount of sensitive user data then you should be running an abliterated model against yourself 24/7 to check for vulnerabilities.
it's now live on @morphllm with serverless token pricing. i think we're the first provider in the world to do anything like this.
you need to kyc & explain your intentions to use it. link here:

Introducing DeepSeek V4.1 Flash 1017 Abliterated, live now on Morph, available through our Model APIs.
It feels more important to release this than ever before, with hacks in the past week affecting everything from PHP to recognizable brands like Railway and OpenCode.
Attackers now run abliterated models against your infrastructure 24/7. You need to do the same in defense.
That said, we're not allowing just anyone to sign up and use this. You'll have to go through KYC and explain your intentions first.
Fill out the form here to request access:

It's literally impossible for your country to escape poverty while it has power outages.
It's a moral imperative to give people reliably electricity and internet connection.
Imagine a personal AI agent that can only be prompted by verifying your DNA.
And you can hand it down, and only your descendants can prompt it.

All companies in these sectors will need to hire other companies to provide such assurances and it is my hypothesis here that the companies they hire will ultimately form a single company, capable of handling data transactions across the board. That's the residue of what we now call the state.
"There might be many firms offering judgments, perhaps specialized across separate fields, but I would hypothesize the emergence and perhaps continual re-emergence of a Centralized Data Security Firm that attains a temporary monopoly on treating data for purposes of judgment.
That firm will exercise the closest thing to what we currently call “sovereignty.”"

Railway is compromised, rotate all API keys as soon as possible
Deployments are down so don’t wait to redeploy
Attackers are draining keys in real time, we didn’t lose much but can confirm this is still an active attack
Stay safe friends
