I’ve been working on getting videos to load fast and reliably and at this hotel I noticed for the first time divine loads better than Instagram for me. @rabble on Divine divine.video/video/91465ad0f…

Well the American election went well, here’s hoping for a progressive vote and oddly that we don’t get a blue wave in Aotearoa because blue is the right wing party’s co… @rabble on Divine divine.video/video/6050c5664…

When i announced Divine just under a year ago i had no idea it'd take off. Now we've been named one of Time Magazine's Best Innovations of 2026.
Big news! @TIME's Best Inventions of 2026 list is out now, and we’re over the moon to be selected as one of three in the Apps and Software category! But this award really belongs to all our Diviners who embraced that mission and made Divine what it is. You built this 💚

Turns out if you ban Airbnb's and don't allow new hotels to be constructed, you get hotel prices that are so expensive it'll kill your tourism industry. Shocking. xitter.twitterapi.xyz/i/trending/21101963424…

If modern public key cryptography breaks we're going to have a major problem with making society and the economy work.
Everyone is very concerned about being respectable, so I’m going to be the goofball who raises worst-case possibilities. I think there is a 1% chance we live in Minicrypt, and a 15% chance we functionally lose confidence in our existing public-key encryption algorithms.

When twitter got started, the first person who figured out how to use it for marketing was @garyvee! I sat down with him to talk about using social media for marketing came to be and where it's going in the era of AI. youtube.com/watch?v=VOKQsuWM…

This is really cool. Both useful and does it using some very cleaver cryptography.
Introducing... mantra.press An E2EE decentralized translation management tool. Built to solve the problems we've had managing translations in over 21 languages on exonumia.africa. Giving groups the ability to cryptographically sign off on work.

This is is surreal. And also very queer.
The claude folks should just own this 🤣

This isn't actually a terrible idea... If you look, it's being done by a known Uruguayan property development company, the plans seem to fit what does work in Uruguay already. I have lived and worked for years in Uruguay and while there are some weird bureaucratic rules, it's mostly a corruption free place that's very digital forward. This is in stark contrast to Argentina across the river which is a mess. Colonia is an easy ferry ride to Buenos Aires and relatively easy to get to and also get to big city fun. Uruguay's a transparent, and low tax place if you're doing tech work with an international focus. I don't know where they're getting all the artists and non-tech creatives that Praxis talks about, but that's another issue. The development extends the city of Colonia to the west in a way which connects it to a lot of services both for the workers who are needed to keep a new neighbourhood like this running, but also make it more liveable. gomezplatero.com/en/project/…
Praxis is building a new city in Uruguay. Construction has begun. Residents move in 2027. Thank you for joining us for the beginning of our long journey. More in @NYTimes.

I'm guessing these two things are related.
