UAMA, an Islamic org linked to Turkey, just bought a 12-acre, 100-year-old Christian dormitory in NY. Islip Town Zoning Board is on the verge of allowing them to turn it into a giant male dormitory for Muslims:

Monad v0.14.3 has been released for mainnet. This version is the first time that nodes are required to use Authenticated UDP for RaptorCast. Authenticated UDP is an improvement that significantly reduces overhead of verifying consensus messages; it was rolled out a few months ago in optional mode to give the network time to switch over. You can read more about Authenticated UDP here: This release also makes changes to allow full nodes to participate in reputation scoring, and does some preparatory work for Deterministic RaptorCast. Full changelog linked in the next post.

If you haven't heard about the KudiWave/PalmPay matter yet, here's the short version: KudiWave says over ₦750 million was transferred from its PalmPay account in a transaction described as "Judicial Adjustment." PalmPay has reportedly linked the transaction to a Federal High Court order. KudiWave challenged that order, and the court later set it aside. The company is now seeking answers about the transaction and the whereabouts of the funds.

Scientists are investigating a little-known mushroom from China’s Yunnan province after it was linked to one of the most unusual types of hallucinations ever recorded. When Lanmaoa asiatica is eaten raw or not cooked thoroughly, some people experience vivid visions unlike those caused by well-known psychedelic substances. Rather than seeing abstract colours or distorted landscapes, many report encountering crowds of tiny human-like figures. These miniature characters are often described as resembling elves, fairies, clowns, or gnomes, and are said to climb over furniture, emerge from doorways, leap into bowls of food, and interact playfully with their surroundings. Medical reports suggest that around 90% of documented poisonings involving this mushroom include these rare “Lilliputian hallucinations,” making it one of the most distinctive poisoning syndromes associated with any fungus. What has puzzled researchers is that laboratory testing has found no trace of psilocybin or any other recognised hallucinogenic compound. Instead, scientists suspect the mushroom may contain an entirely unknown chemical capable of producing these extraordinary effects. Symptoms usually appear between 12 and 24 hours after the mushroom is eaten and may continue for several days. Although the hallucinations can be intense and unsettling, researchers reviewing hospital records have found no confirmed deaths directly attributed to this type of poisoning. One researcher, a doctoral student at the University of Utah, has spent years studying the mushroom throughout China and the Philippines. By combining DNA sequencing with chemical analysis, the research team has narrowed the search to a small group of candidate molecules, but the exact compound responsible has not yet been identified. If the mystery molecule is eventually discovered, it could represent an entirely new class of hallucinogen and provide valuable insights into how the brain creates our perception of reality.

Bringing brand and performance closer requires some changes in the AI era: Treating brand and analytics as equal. Integrators are more likely to inject creativity in analytic functions and vice versa, especially when it comes to consumer insights and customer experience. In the AI era, this means leveraging predictive AI to turn raw consumer data into proactive creative briefs. Linking teams with an agile marketing operating model. This means having brand and digital marketers work from the brief through all execution. By integrating GenAI workflows, teams can rapidly co-create, test, and scale asset variations while maintaining strict brand guardrails. Defining clear, unified KPIs linked across the funnel. This includes analyzing and quantifying the impact of non-conversion events such as points of awareness, increased and qualified traffic generation. Investing in an AI-powered measurement ecosystem. Moving beyond traditional 'brand lift' studies to regular read-and-react geo-specific attribution, utilizing machine learning to run continuous, automated cross-channel simulations. An updated media mix model (MMM) for integrated spending. Including a pressure-tested, AI-driven MMM based on real-time incrementality tests in market to dynamically reallocate budget between brand and performance. Before undertaking all of the above, marketers should try a few AI-assisted pilot tests to quickly demonstrate the power and increased effectiveness when these muscles work together.

The weakest part of on-chain raises is still the initial valuation. That is why we chose sealed-bid auctions for Crafts raises and built Raise Zero to let anyone try them with mockUSDC. This auction logic has priced U.S. Treasuries for decades and was used in Google’s IPO. With Arcium, we’re bringing it on-chain. For Crafts-issued Stakeholder Tokens linked to company upside, this matters even more. The first price should come from conviction, not information advantage. So we built a no-risk version: 1. Claim mockUSDC 2. Analyze the mock projects 3. Set commit amount, set max FDV, or accept market Try it yourself:

Your Claude Code work becomes an always-up-to-date live shared page — Artifacts eliminate the time spent explaining status 📊 Title: Claude Code now supports artifacts URL: 📊 Overview Artifacts turn a Claude Code work session into a live, interactive web page. They pull in the full session context — codebase, connectors, and conversation — and output a visual, shareable result. ❓ Challenges Solved Dev teams spend more time communicating status than building. ・Manually compiling findings, explaining progress verbally, recreating visualizations ・This overhead drags on development Artifacts automate it and keep the page synchronized as work progresses. 💡 Features & How It Works ・Built on full session context: code, monitoring data, and reasoning combined with no external infrastructure ・Live pages that update in place: teammates see refreshes immediately on publish ・Version history for restoring previous states, plus a gallery to manage them ・Private by default, shareable with org members, with admin-controlled access The flow: request an artifact → Claude Code builds and publishes it → share the link → it auto-republishes to the same URL as work continues. 🌍 Use Cases License audits, data-flow mapping, security findings linked to code lines, cloud cost tracking, PR walkthroughs, architecture diagrams, incident postmortems, and team shipping summaries. #ClaudeCode# #AIAgents#

That sinking feeling in your stomach? It might be your future self trying to warn you. Scientists now believe your consciousness isn't trapped in the present moment. It can leap forward. Backward. Bend around time itself. And those random "gut feelings" you brush off? They could be memories leaking back from a version of you that hasn't happened yet. Cognitive neuroscientist Julia Mossbridge has spent years wiring people up to monitors and measuring something that shouldn't exist, your body reacting to events seconds before they actually occur. Subjects sit calmly. A computer randomly flashes images, some peaceful sunrises, some violent car crashes. The wild part? Their brains spike with stress before the disturbing image ever appears on screen. No way to predict it. No pattern to follow. Yet the body knows. Dean Radin, chief scientist at the Institute of Noetic Sciences, ran the original version of this experiment back in the mid-1990s at the University of Nevada. His results have been replicated roughly three dozen times since. Even the CIA got curious. In 1995, the agency declassified its own precognition research after independent statisticians reviewed the data and called it statistically reliable. So how does this even work? Radin and Mossbridge point to quantum entanglement, the strange phenomenon Einstein famously called "spooky action at a distance." Particles stay linked across vast distances, and possibly across time itself. Their theory? Your brain might be entangled with its own future state. What feels like instinct is actually a signal bouncing backward through the timeline. "In quantum mechanics, time may not even be part of our physical reality," Radin explains. It exists, but not the neat, linear way humans experience it. Mossbridge puts it plainly. Precognition isn't hard to understand. It's just hard to believe, especially for people who've never felt it themselves. The resistance, she says, isn't really about science. It's about fear. Fear that reality doesn't play by the rules we were taught. Your gut isn't superstition. It might be the only part of you already living tomorrow. Source: Popular Mechanics
