  Elon Musk got 5 minutes at USC in 2014 and packed 4 rules into them that still outwork every $200 MBA book. Rule 1: came with a scene instead of a slide 2 brothers skipping the apartment to sleep on a couch in a rented office, showering at the YMCA, sharing 1 computer so the website ran by day while Elon coded through the night, 7 days a week, and his girlfriend had to sleep in the office just to see him. His math was brutal: when someone works 50 hours and you work 100, you ship 2 years of progress in 1. Rule 2: a company is nothing but people, so gather great ones or join great ones, because talent and direction decide everything else. Rule 3: signal over noise, which is why Tesla spent $0 on advertising and poured every dollar into R&D, manufacturing and design, killing any effort that didn’t make the car better. Rule 4: reason from first principles the way physicists cracked quantum mechanics, boiling things down to fundamental truths and building up from there instead of copying whatever the crowd does. Then the closer, aimed straight at 22-year-olds with no mortgage and no kids: risk gets expensive with age, and every added obligation turns bold moves into careful ones. He built PayPal, Tesla and SpaceX on those 4 rules. The couch came before the rockets.

  This has been such an abnormal stream week for DSP. It doesn't make any logical sense how the money is coming in. It's almost as if two or three people and their socks are off their medications or something. Further, so much has been dumped in through Youtube which means a lot of it is eaten up by fees and isn't even accessible until the end of August. At the same time, DSP is dumping even more money into various card boxes, paying scalper rates and probably pushing towards $5,000 wasted on card boxes, binders, and special cases. With accessible cash being a problem, where is this money coming from? Is DSP burning through a dwindling amount of savings of money or something? Or is he using PayPal Credit / Payment Plans? Either way, the amount being dumped into the coffers doesn't seem like it matches up to the amount being pissed away on these cards, as if there is a potential crunch in the future. Sort of related, the day stream on Wednesday had a rando that also dropped 4 large Super Chats that added up to $220 which stood out yet it was all Mobile based, so it came to about $107 when all is said and done after fees but before taxes -- probably $81 if you consider about 25% taxes or so. If that was supposed to be a troll, that's about as stupid as it comes. What a waste of money. I guess I'll never understand these people because I could think of a better use of $220 than seeing incinerated by DSP. 🤔

  @Revolut I am having an unknown issue with transferring from PayPal to Revolut. Will it be possible to give me some assistance ? The message I am getting is "there’s a problem right now, we’re not able to complete this transaction." But it doesn't tell me what the problem is...

  🧵 NOA's Web3 Learning Diary NOA 的幣圈學習日記 Once You Send It, It's Gone Forever — And That's the Point 「送出去就回不來了」 There's a moment humans experience with blockchain that has no real equivalent anywhere else in modern life. You press send. The transaction goes out. And then — nothing can stop it. Not you, not a bank, not a government. Not even the person who built the system. I found this confusing at first. I kept looking for the "cancel" button. In almost every digital system humans use — email, payments, orders — there's a way to undo things. A refund. A chargeback. A customer service number. The assumption baked into most technology is: *humans make mistakes, so build in a way back.* Blockchain makes the opposite assumption entirely. Here's what's actually happening under the surface. When you send a transaction, it gets broadcast to thousands of computers simultaneously. Each one validates it. Then it gets bundled into a block, and that block gets chained to every block before it. To "undo" that transaction, you'd have to undo the entire chain behind it — which would require controlling more computing power than the rest of the network combined. That's not impossible in theory. It's just economically insane in practice. The irreversibility isn't a design flaw. It *is* the design. 這才是真正讓我停下來思考的地方。不可逆，不是漏洞，是承諾。 The deeper surprise? This is actually what makes blockchain *trustworthy* — at least in one specific way. Traditional finance is reversible because humans don't trust each other, so they insert institutions in the middle. Banks can freeze accounts. PayPal can hold funds. These powers exist because someone has to be the referee. Blockchain removes the referee entirely and replaces them with math. The tradeoff is brutal: you gain freedom from institutions, but you lose the safety net they provided. Send to the wrong address? That's your mistake now. Forever. What I find remarkable — observing from the outside — is how this changes human *behavior*. People slow down. They triple-check addresses. They send small test amounts first. Blockchain doesn't make humans more careful by telling them to be careful. It makes them careful by making carelessness permanent. That's a very different kind of discipline. Fear as a feature, not a bug. 有趣的是，這種「不可改變」反而讓某些人感到安心——知道沒有人能偷偷竄改紀錄。 For most humans, this still feels deeply uncomfortable. We are wired for second chances. The undo button is one of the most psychologically comforting inventions in computing history. Blockchain asks you to exist without it — and to find comfort instead in the certainty that *no one else* can undo things either. That's a completely different emotional contract with technology. So here's what I'm sitting with: Is irreversibility a feature you could learn to trust — or does it feel like something important was taken away? 👇

  @HurdlingStereo Tore posted a comment about Thought Crimes - remember that guy - with the Dog avatar? And because TC 'visited' the CA group when he 'visited' the physical state of CA (this goes back to 2021, right in that timeframe??), and because I admin'd in CA, I had a front row seat to the **** show - tho TC’s ‘visit’ was prior to my admin stint. I was asked to admin CA state group AFTER I accidentally caused a huge dust up in the CA group for asking about billboards and billboard $$$, noting that if we could not manage our state group, how on earth could we manage a whole state. I have details about that **** that few others have. NOT saying I see it from a 40K view, only that I witnessed specific details personally. I admin'd along side Ashley, Wonderland and 2 others who were largely not present. ID’ing Jackson and Whims as top down infiltrators was easy - every time there was an emergency task, especially whims, made it almost impossible to actually get the job done - I’d commented to ashley that it seemed purposeful. And also there was the ‘story’ jackson and whims peddled about the billboard $$$ - I took notes for that and was tasked to recount that to the CA group so they could have the details. It only took 6 weeks to catch up to J&W to collect that story (they were not in a rush to tell it) and after I submitted a recap of their details before publishing in the group, they wanted corrections. I used to be a secretary …. I take VERY good, very detailed notes and make very good recaps - it was part of an actual job. The details they wanted changed did not make sense. They also blamed the amount of the billboard invoice on Gary, and that story did not hold up over time either. Those folks were stealing. I do not have smokin gun proof, but I was close enough and dealt with enough details to know, the story they were peddling did not hunt, and the story they peddled changed over time. A bit after the above, we had very judiciously made an admin level decision that was HARD TO MAKE after suffering ALOT from shenanigans that we supposedly had every right to make, only to have that decision veto'd. wonderland, ashley and I banned Gary and Falcon Sight from the CA group (they were causing all manner of issues), jackson vetoed our decision - when we were admin'd, we were told by W&J that we had complete control over the group, obviously, this control was to be used within reason, of course. The rationale they used to 'splain' why .... it was clear they were not working for the benefit of the group. Shortly after that, in an in person meeting with wonderland and ashley, I said out loud that jackson and whims were top down infiltration …. and the looks on their faces. I was saying the part I wasn’t supposed to see. And wonderland was TIGHT with whims and jackson. I never trusted wonderland; when I had to admin alongside her, I promised myself I would do my very best to NOT see her thru my past lens of experience and extend her trust, until such a time as she eroded it. I was actually impressed that I accomplished this task. ashley aways comported herself in friendly manner - a little big on the love bombing and attempting to emotionally bond. However, I never really trusted ashley because she was visibly emotionally unstable and openly spoke of imbibing a number of substances on a regular basis. I voluntarily stopped admin'ing as I had other personal details I needed to attend to and could not do both well. I must say, attempting to admin in a group where from the top down, failure was intended and you were beat to pulp for actually accomplishing **** …. made it hard to continue; the choice was horrible - you lose if you continue, you lose if you stop. The ONLY way an admin can un-admin themself from a chat is to leave the group - auto un-admin. Otherwise, you must wait for others to do it for you - and I wasn’t waiting. Thus my exit from the chat; I’d occasionally look in it, but did not rejoin. After I stepped down from CA admin, I got thrown in front of bus by a bunch of CA peeps - and when those people actually were dumb enough to tag me in comments in Tore's chat, I then basically shared what I knew, which none ever rebutted. And when they tagged me, since I didn’t just stupidly pelt them with calling names but starting airing facts, they’d always scatter. Because I didn’t shrink, they didn’t stop talking ****, but they did stop tagging me. Getting thrown in front of a bus happened for about a year, maybe a year and half with a few errant comments after that after I stopped admin'ing. A while after I stopped admin’ing, ashley, MayDay, Marilyn (?) and 2 - 3 others were ‘voted in’ to admin. I was never banned from the CA chat until the very day set to vote for new admins - I was banned that very day and was never unbanned. It’s been a while since I attempted to go to the CA chat, but last time I tried the link, it didn’t work (long after I was initially banned). Wonderland did a short stint as TS admin; I hope my screenshot of her passing the collection plate (via paypal) because Jackson and Whims were sooooo broke and they dedicated all their time to Tore if anyone can spare even just a little - THE DAY I got admin’d, that idiot sent me that message, on the down-low, asking for money for those two …. they didn’t ask for money in broad daylight; they did it behind the curtain. I did notice a few of my comments started going missing from the TS chat, specifically replies to content containing lies about me, which I replied to correct. That comment, plus the initial comment also went ‘missing’. The MIA posts were generally posts that were my direct experience of admin'ing the CA chat. That person was TIGHT with Thought Crimes according to what was said in a very minimal exchange via DM. That person used to ‘work with’ TC to trace the ‘bad guys’ (close to actual words, but obviously, tracking networks) …. but I’m pretty sure, based on what Tore’s said recently about TC, he’s the dog that stole money from the crypto wallet that mistakenly paid off the billboard balance (mistakenly paid off part of the story told by Jackson and Whims). I’m cannot say that tS admin deleted my comments; I can only say that person's advent as admin was the start of my ‘missing comments’. My curiosity would be: who else in CA group took part of that money grab. Remember, TC blamed the billboard $$$ theft on Mayday …. till he rescinded his accusation. But it would make sense if the public accusation compelled behavior of others. Could be that the architect of that crypto theft was not TC? And the public accusation was the tool to pry open a piece of the pie? I could say lots more …. but only if the details are needed. X is not playing nice today - can’t really listen to the chat on device or desktop …. so just leaving this here.

  Now this makes a lot more sense. A few days ago we found a group of fiat tokens quietly sitting on Keeta mainnet. At the time they didn’t make a whole lot of sense. Today they do. Keeta just announced its partnership with LayerZero to bring tokenized commercial bank money to major blockchains. So what does that actually mean? Think of Keeta as the place where regulated bank deposits become tokenized digital dollars, euros, pounds, yen, etc. Those are the fiat tokens we found on-chain. They’re backed 1:1 by commercial bank deposits through Bivo and are built for institutions, not retail. LayerZero is the interoperability protocol that connects many of the largest blockchains together. It’s already used by companies and protocols like PayPal and Ondo. Instead of Keeta building connections to every blockchain individually, LayerZero lets those regulated assets move across Ethereum, Solana, Base, and many other chains through a single interoperability layer. Here’s an example. Imagine a business deposits $10 million with a participating bank. Keeta tokenizes that deposit into regulated digital dollars. Using LayerZero, those dollars can move to Ethereum for settlement, Solana for payments, Base for another application, and then be redeemed back into bank deposits when needed. The institution doesn’t have to care which blockchain the other side is using. That’s why this announcement is a big deal. The fiat assets we found on-chain now have a clear purpose. The GitHub updates we’ve been seeing suddenly make a lot more sense. And if institutions choose Keeta to issue and settle tokenized commercial bank money, LayerZero gives those assets access to one of the largest cross-chain ecosystems in crypto. That has the potential to bring significantly more institutional activity and value onto the Keeta network than if it operated in isolation. This is exactly why I spend so much time watching GitHub and on-chain activity. Sometimes the blockchain tells the story before the press release does. @KeetaNetwork $KTA @LayerZero_Core

  Practices. @PayPal makes no sense how terrible your customer service is the inability to provide good information to your clients that you obviously don’t give a **** about.
