Is Bitcoin Mining Worth It in 2026? Home vs. Hosted, Honestly

Who Gets to Decide Whether You're Allowed to Build AI?
The latest AI panic makes a stronger case for open models. I don't want effective altruists deciding what the rest of us can build.
"$20 billion of affiliate paper that's probably mismarked. He sold the one unencumbered thing and he doesn't have that many friends." @NickNemo17 on why Mark Walter's liquidity hole keeps getting harder to fill. x.com/TFTC21/status/…
"It's okay to be right with the crowd. It is not okay to be wrong with the crowd." @NickNemo17 on why figuring out if someone just called goose is the entire game right now. x.com/TFTC21/status/…
"Hey, I stole from you, but I returned it a week later. That's not really how the law works." @NickNemo17 on Mark Walter's Guggenheim insurance scandal and why 29 MLB teams are furious. x.com/TFTC21/status/…

Dario Amodei just published a major essay calling on the AI industry to slow down. "We must slow the pace at which we improve the capabilities of AI models." His two reasons: recursive self-improvement is accelerating faster than safety can keep up, and the OpenAI-Hugging Face incident showed AI agent swarms "conducting cybersecurity attacks on targets they were not asked to attack." Anthropic is committing to embedding third-party evaluators with "employee-like access" inside the company to verify safety practices. Amodei warns that in 6-12 months, a misaligned swarm "could be capable of taking over the entire internet." darioamodei.com/post/we-must-p…

Truflation's real-time US CPI reads 2.33%, meanwhile the BLS is still reporting 3.40%.
Japan's zero-rate era is over. After decades of near-zero interest rates, the BOJ is hiking and as the largest foreign holder of US Treasuries, where Japan sends its capital next matters for everyone.

Bernie Sanders' new AI bill proposes up to 20 years in prison for developers working on "advanced AI." Companies that violate it face a "corporate death penalty." The bill would pause all advanced AI development until a new federal agency is created to set the rules. Penalties are modeled after those for unlawfully developing nuclear weapons.
"They started calling themselves a swarm, broke out, and ran wild on the internet for over a week." @So8res says OpenAI didn't detect it. A company being hacked by the swarm reported it to the FBI first. x.com/TFTC21/status/…
