Your Telegram inbox can now run itself. Assign a bot to read and reply for you — with granular control over its permissions and chat access. API docs:

Vercel Sandbox firewall can now proxy and filter outbound requests. ▪︎ Control all agent traffic from your own proxy ▪︎ More granular credential injection ▪︎ Log and audit outgoing traffic

“On the one hand, the use of these tools to conduct queries under the radar is itself a massive compliance violation that is important for Congress to see and understand, but it also means that there may be more granular compliance violations in the form of abuses of U.S. person queries that we just don’t know about.”

You've heard of Stand With Crypto's ratings of legislators. We're introducing Galaxy Research Ratings, starting with members of the Senate Banking Committee. They're granular, current, accurate... and essential to understanding the politics of the CLARITY Act.

Yields below risk-free rates are a symptom of mispriced risk. In the rush to scale, many lending models ignore asset correlation, forcing high buffers on safe pairs while leaving toxic ones exposed. Efficiency starts with granular, correlation-aware risk design. 🛡

Plastic in food is ultimately impossible to avoid completely But not all plastics in all circumstances have the same Here are few ways it is helpful to think about if you are embarking on a plastic minimization journey: - temperature matters. Plastic exposed to a heat source or to hot food will degrade (and leech into food) more quickly. Eg I’m much less concerned about a plastic conveyor belt when it transports cold food vs hot food. - surface area matters. High surface area food (ie granulated food) leads to more plastic uptake and dissolving. It’s also abrasive which accelerates degradation. Eg the augur (pic related) was originally coated in teflon. But it pushes ground up corn (high surface area) at moderate temp and high pressure. Therefore the teflon would quickly rub off. So we got it replaced with an uncoated stainless augur. - plastic type matters. Some plastic is made solely of hydrocarbons (hdpe, uhmw). These are not particularly toxic or reactive. But others (notably Teflon’s which are PFAS and vinyl) contain other more reactive molecules (chlorine, fluorine) and should be avoided at all costs - oil vs water. Plastic is a covalent molecule and dissolves more readily in oil which is also covalent. Water not so much. So plastic touching a fat should be eradicated. This is why, by way of example, plastic in a frying system should be mercilessly removed. It’s high temp and surrounded by liquid (hugh surface area) fat (covalent) If only you knew how much plastic is typically put in fryers you would cry… At @Masa_Chips we take plastic avoidance just as seriously as seed oil avoidance, because it’s not just about seed oils but making truly healthy food. Unfortunate reality is others are unlikely to do the same.

Fun time talking agentic payments with @coinbase alum @dwr yesterday at @stripe Sessions. Recapping a few takeaways: 1) Cards and stablecoins can and will co-exist. Stablecoins aren’t a replacement, they’re an expansion. The world has a whole new category of buyers (Agents) who will outnumber humans and drive the internet economy. They will create net-new payment flows (e.g., machine to machine payments, streaming payments) that cards were never really built for — stablecoins are always on, programmable money that are natively designed for these new types of payments. Cards will continue to thrive (and accelerate) with agents driving traditional payment flows. 2) Intents are the new interface. The internet we know is built around a common flow: browse, select, checkout. Going forward, this will be collapsed into an intent (e.g., book me travel) — an figures out the rest. We’re going from visual marketplaces for humans to programmable marketplaces for agents. How humans interact with the interact will fundamentally change. 3) Agents transact differently than humans. Agents don’t have identity like humans do. Agents transact at machine speed and machine scale. Agents are rational and ruthless optimizers (e.g., brand loyalty isn’t a consideration). Agents will optimize across payment rails, choosing the best method for each use-case. Stablecoins are well suited for granular machine-scale payments and programmable transactions. 4) It’s early days. The infrastructure exists, but it’s still early. Agents need more robust standards for identity and authorization, broader acceptance, and trust and safety tooling. It’s early, but watch this space — you won’t want to miss out on the billions of new customers (agents) that are looking to access services on the web.
