Kalshi employees "kind of understand that without the tweets and the streamers and all of the social-media stuff that the traders do for them, usually just for free, their marketing would be a lot harder," said Jack Campion, 20, a junior at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and a Kalshi affiliate. In September, Kalshi briefly signed up a 15-year-old videogame streamer who goes by vertid online to promote its brand on X as an affiliate. A week later, Kalshi ended the partnership. "Yo brother, legal team confirmed that we can't work with minors rn," a Kalshi employee wrote to the user in messages reviewed by the Journal. "Kinda sad tbh."

Inside Russia’s Secret Campaign of Sabotage in Europe How Russian military intelligence is recruiting young people online to carry out espionage, arson, and other attacks across the Continent.

In 2023, Polish police discovered a network of more than a dozen single-use agents, some of whom were recruited to put up flyers and stickers that read “Poland ≠ Ukraine” and “NATO go home.” The goal? To get people to question the state’s support for Ukraine. newyorkermag.visitlink.me/diLOUz

Read it yesterday (banger, as always) just to find out that Ukraine, for example, which you mention in your article, banned Polymarket today.

Reason was the platform’s lack of a license for an activity classified as gambling => polymarket domain was added to the register of prohibited resources.

дуже інформативно, дякую.

'Unauthorized' Edit to Ukraine's Frontline Maps Point to Polymarket's War Betting It looks like someone invented a fake Russia advance in Ukraine to manipulate online gambling markets.

Pause at One Hundred Miles per Hour Can liminal-space therapy be a thing? I think many Ukrainians need that.

The artist Anna Ivanenko narrates a journey, with illustrations, from Ukraine to a conference in a neighboring country, without the use of air travel, owing to the Russian invasion.

God, what a person. Amazing read, thank you for the work.

Framing a Frame TV blocks the sensors, so this company made a... sensor dongle. [Image: Behold the Deco Frames SRS-2, the world’s first... frame dongle. https://platform.theverge.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/chorus/uploads/chorus_asset/file/25230277/SRS_2back_w_text_web_1200_50...

As ever the Frame TV is a phd thesis in how marketing can horsepower a product into being perceived as vastly better than it is. This thing is so half-baked that *putting most frames on it* breaks the sensors, so there are third-party sensor dongles made to fix it www.theverge.com/2024/1/16/24...

oh wow. it looks great in its rusty honesty. I hope it causes the owner no distress.

But it’s as owner & boss of his eponymous #F1 team that Guy Ligier will always be remembered. Équipe Ligier won 9 GPs between ’76 & ’96, & some of their cars were among the most beautiful of that era, such as the Ligier JS11 here being raced at Dijon in ’79 by Jacky Ickx. (2/2)

Remembering Guy Ligier, born #OnThisDay in ’30. A farmer’s son, he was orphaned at 7, left school at 14 & became a butcher’s boy. A champion rower & an international rugby player, he then raced bikes & cars. He started 12 #F1 GPs including Spa ’67 in a Cooper-Maser (pic). (1/2)

Apple ending this year's WWDC keynote, which didn't mention Siri once, with a band singing happy app store reviews kind of says everything

"yeah podcasts are great, but how can I make them about me?"

I'm increasingly convinced that much of the allure of chatbots is that it makes the user feel like the Cleverest Boy In All The Land.

Everything ends up being about *you*.
