Today showed us that the SEC has had it wrong. The problem isn’t that some cryptos may be securities. The problem is that all securities aren’t yet cryptos. Now is the time to draft a bill that legalizes security tokens.

Why it worked

Ends on a short line that is easy to quote and repeat.
Short enough to read in full without expanding, which removes a step before the point lands.
Short sentences keep the pace up, so the reader never has to re-read a line.

The mechanics

Hook: Announcement
Structure: Hook → Landing
Style: Conversational paragraphs at a steady pace.
Tone: plain, matter-of-fact
Written for: People building with AI

At my direction, early this morning federal agents arrested Don Lemon, Trahern Jeen Crews, Georgia Fort, and Jamael Lydell Lundy, in connection with the coordinated attack on Cities Church in St. Paul, Minnesota. More details soon.

For those confused why the US state and Silicon Valley are having a meltdown on twitter today. China released multiple AI models that are 50x more efficient than the best American AI models and made them open source, ruining the AI market

Universal HIGH INCOME via checks issued by the Federal government is the best way to deal with unemployment caused by AI. AI/robotics will produce goods & services far in excess of the increase in the money supply, so there will not be inflation.

I am very excited about AI, but to go off-script for a minute: I built an app with Codex last week. It was very fun. Then I started asking it for ideas for new features and at least a couple of them were better than I was thinking of. I felt a little useless and it was sad.

Hi! I'm one of the prompt writers that worked on this ad. It's a lot harder than people think! Prompts that my team used include: -make it funny -make it epic AND funny -funnier!!! Please be nice to my team as many of them will be laid off/replaced by AI

It’s patently absurd that Apple isn’t smart enough to make their own AI, yet is somehow capable of ensuring that OpenAI will protect your security & privacy! Apple has no clue what’s actually going on once they hand your data over to OpenAI. They’re selling you down the river.

There are counterarguments worth engaging. One point (also by @MarceloLima) is that Block was overstaffed, like Twitter before the acquisition. Possibly true. But it’s also true that the new tools mean many orgs think they can do more with less. Some will run the experiment.

Zuck out Page out Brin out Thiel out Elon out The most successful tech founders of all time have now exited the failed state of California. You shouldn’t move there for tech. And if you are there, you should leave. The future is the decentralized Internet.

This is nuking every single supply chain that passes through the US in any way, under the illusion that 45 years of deindustrialization can be fixed in one day of 45% tariffs. Countless low-margin businesses, including US exporters, will be pushed into unprofitability.

If we do see hundreds of memecoins out there, then the market gets educated and becomes more real. A celeb memecoin is then a bit like a tracking poll. It measures the strength of an influencer’s brand. You aren’t forecasting future revenue, you’re forecasting future pageviews.

In other words: the Chinese Deepseek paper references GPT-4o, which was in fact led by an Indian immigrant to the US. Many valid policy decisions one can make, but be real about the tradeoffs. 96% of the world is non-American and there is real talent out there. Original post:

Funny you mention that! Because Prafulla Dhariwal is an International Math Olympiad and International Physics Olympiad gold medalist with a 5.0 GPA from MIT. And he led the development of GPT-4o.
