Three new games in the works.

Started two last night, one in Bolt, the other in Grok.

Might release the one in Bolt this weekend, hoping to start & finish the other, too.

Haven’t figured out the right prompts for the one in Grok, yet.
More like Kan-sad City tonight. Bummer.

I had no idea KU had this in them.

Of course, back-to-back-to-back-to-back-to-back HRs help.

This is a great microcosm for the moment in tech: the more time one spends with abstractions, the less one understands the fundamentals.

Not all jobs require knowing the fundamentals, but such knowledge can be a powerful lever for this who know how to use it.

Shoot me a note if you’re in town for the Big XII tournament and want to meet up in between games!
I dig this. Cool way to share “episodes” (groups of photos) in an integrated, but not core, part of the app.

fwiw: I like that this is in a frame and that it lives offchain.

one small step forward to proper instagram stories on this platform!

LOOPS!

outside of Farcaster — they're fully public photo galleries

inside of Farcaster — they're Frames that show up as instagram-story style infinitely looping photo galleries
Gave a (very tech savvy) co-worker a brief tour of FC/WC/Farcade today (we had been talking about vibe coding games & toys) and, with some mix of shock, delight, and curiosity, she said, “you’ve unlocked a totally different internet.”
I have watched or followed almost zero about college basketball.

But I now see why everyone is frustrated by KU this year.
Warplet goes brrrrrrr

👀 - That used to say $1,000, right?

Not a typo!

We increased the developer reward pool to $2,000! 🚀

We also increased the weight of wallet transactions so frames that get users to submit transactions will have a greater chance to be in the top 25.

(Transactions have to go through Warpcast to count but any connected wallet counts, not only Warpcast Wallet.)
We now have rings in the house. 🙃

(In addition to aerial silks and Lyra)

It’s only fitting that Liverpool-PSG ends with pens.
ITAP of the city

It’s gonna be a day, so i’m starting with a few minutes of sunshine on the roof.

The elevator in our building is so smooth that you wouldn’t know it’s doing anything if it weren’t for the slight hum outside.

Initially unnerving, followed by delight.
Back when Google knew how to have fun, you could pick a couple different non-standard languages and it would translate your entire Google experience accordingly.

My personal favorite was the Swedish Chef — and Pirate on September 19, of course.

And then these guys on the Dude Buddy podcast are joking about a rural Canadian voice responding to your questions.

This needs to happen. Let me download my own voice models beyond the standard six. These would do volume that puts ringtones to shame.

In my naivete, Manus seems like a useful bridge tool between Chat-based LLMs & full-blown agents.

Anyone used it yet?

Manus is picking up buzz in China and was recently put through its pace by S-Tier AI curator Rowan Cheung whose thread is worth reading. Rowan calls it
"It's like Deep Research + Operator + Claude Computer combined, and it's REALLY good."

The Manus team even experienced shortly after launch an unfortunate suspension of their X account which since has been rectified

When you are driving really fast down the highway; don’t look at the wall as it passes by - you’ll realize how fast you’re going and become terrified

Just focus on driving
At the point where I usually prefer the coffee at home rather than most shops.

It’s not objectively better, but I just haven’t enjoyed most cups the last several times I’ve gone out. (There have been a few good ones!)

☕️
Manipulation or nah?

I mean, I love a good channel and all, but the timing here seems suspect.

The joy of going to Tractor Supply 🥰
It’s much, much easier for me to fall asleep for a 5-minute nap than it is at bedtime.
I follow this guy ariatinsta and can’t help but imagine how well an album would sell with all these dudes off the street. I know Jack about hiphop but every video has comments saying how these are better than what’s on the market.

Say they all had crypto wallets. He has an app that quickly creates a smart contract for each song with each of these singers/rappers’ wallets. Earnings & royalties are distributed automatically as they like.

Clever: before the game started, the head ref came over to the parents sideline and joked along the lines of, “You guys have been doing this for a long time. Anybody want to switch with me?”

Priming the parents to behave and admit to themselves that they don’t want his job.

Unsurprisingly, he’s been an excellent referee besides that.
Also: my wife was reading about those who have passed away while attempting Everest and the fact that if you climb, you’re bound to see many of them. Morbid math.
My wife has been into the Telepathy Tapes lately. I haven’t listened yet, but postulated that maybe our brains have been limited, held back somehow — for instance, over time in order to cope with certain historical developments.

This is pretty out there, but it’s fascinating

See you later, everyone. It’s been real. Just like the value of these tokens I was airdropped.

This is brilliant, I’m sure I won’t like them, but this will be wildly successful.

Working with Grok (wasn’t signed in) on a game and it erased my chat history after a couple minutes afk.😭
Just thinking about how Steve Jobs told Drew Houston and Arash Ferdowsi that Dropbox was a “feature not a product”, and how in 2025 Dropbox is a publicly traded $8 billion company and Apple’s filesharing sucks.
