#TheCryptocalypseChronicles: A Rather Alarming Epstein / Russia / Israel Crypto Timeline
The recently released #EpsteinFiles make it crystal clear that #Epstein's involvement in #crypto was much deeper and long lasting than had been previously understood.
Not only do we now know that Epstein funded bitcoin's development team at #MIT starting from 2015, we also now know that #Epstein introduced #Tether co-founder, #SteveBannon business partner, #EOS scammer, and man with an extremely sordid history of sex crimes against children #BrockPierce to former #Harvard president #LarrySummers. Summers would go on to join the board of #DigitalCurrencyGroup ( #DCG), the most important crypto VC fund in the U.S.
Beyond that there's
1. Epstein's proposal to a #Russian #FSB operative that they should create a #BRICS stablecoin
2. A bunch of sinister sounding emails between Epstein and"influential men" in #Qatar about "the e-currency"
3. Bannon + Epstein's plot to undermine Europe with crypto money
4. The integration of #BrockPierce and the #Netanyahu family
5. Accusations from the former head of #Mossad's financial unit about Netanyahu's involvement in crypto
6. The relationship between Chinese criminal #MilesGuo AKA #MilesKwok, Steve Bannon, and Epstein
...and so much more. Retoots appreciated.

MIT’s origami robot starts as a flat sheet, folds itself when heated, and becomes a tiny robot that can crawl, climb, and swim.

@bosquebill We haven't seen all of the bikes around MIT yet, so there's still a chance, but so far this one earlier this year at Dartmouth takes the prize.

It wouldn't be a college without unusual bikes parked outside.

In 2018 this paper reframed a major chapter of computing history in a way that's more apparent and relevant today.
The paper traces the ideological roots of Seymour Papert's constructionism and Logo, as well as projects his work influenced such as Scratch and OLPC, to the MIT hacker culture. It also explains the fall from grace of the theory in the education world, but notably not in the technology world, as a consequence of that culture and its disconnect with the wider social implications.

🚀 dirval published on #PyPI!
My first official #Python package 🎉
#dirval can now be installed easily via:
pip install dirval
It is a core library of the #InfinitoNexus ecosystem and is used by backup, validation, and infrastructure tools to reliably detect directory structure changes.
Thanks to #pkgmgr, I can now release and publish packages much faster and more consistently.
