Printing Money: Paxos Mints, Then Burns $300 Trillion in PayPal Stablecoins - Decrypt
A fat-finger mistake, or a hack? Crypto traders are confounded after $300 trillion worth of PayPal's PYUSD was minted and then burned.

AI is so smart y'all, just fire your software engineers and use LLMs instead

Check this shit out. Northstar code circa 2010 (when Ky was 19)!
Especially look at the Computer Player code We wrote, starting at line 1000.
Definitely nothing like anything We would write these days, absolutely beginner shit… which is what makes it so interesting to look back on!

Here's a great free idea for how to use LLMs in your user-facing software:
Whenever you catch an error that you didn’t expect, and which isn’t localized:
Instead of telling the user “something went wrong“ with no other information…
Have a tiny local LLM evaluate that error against your source code,
try to figure out where the user input led to that error,
figure out whether or not the user can resolve that error,
and then give the user a nice full-text localized explanation of what happened and what they can do

You will lose your privacy, features will be forced upon you that you don’t want, it doesn’t run all your programs that Windows 10 ran, it’s extremely buggy and crashy, and deletes all your data

Me, a Swift dev, watching Rust devs argue about the use of

Result's unwrap() which took down Cloudflare.Resultexpect()unwrap()ResultResultMan, this would be awesome if it actually happens as we all imagine… and really Hell if it happens in a way that Google enjoys

The EU wants to end annoying cookie pop-ups by letting users set their consent once in their browser. If passed, websites will have to respect those choices.
