  @C_S_Skeptic @hashjenni He bought paypal, and the service was absolute garbage during his time, as soon as he left they started inventing, making the service work, sure they have a LOT of problems, but the service started working when he was forced out.

  @NotA_Bull Wouldn’t necessarily say broken. $NKE is a turnaround story. $PYPL is an execution story. PayPal is still growing TPV double digits, buying back billions in stock, and generating massive FCF. The market just wants to see consistent growth reaccelerate.

  @RossoVermil No, Kodiak says he canceled payments, PayPal returned the money due to StarCat’s account issues, and he needed it after losing his job. Without actual donation logs or proof it was kept for profit, and Kiwi made the call not him it’s not the smoking gun you’re making it.

  Bill Gates daughter runs a shopping app that secretly took credit for sales it never made. Here's what happened: When you buy something online after clicking a link from a website or app, that website or app gets a small cut of the sale from the store, as a thank you for sending you there. It only gets that money if it actually sent you there. Phia is a shopping app made by Phoebe Gates, daughter of Bill Gates, and her co-founder Sophia Kianni. It tells you where to find the cheapest price and best discount codes. It has 1.2 million downloads in the last year and raised $43.5 million from investors, including Kleiner Perkins, Khosla Ventures, and celebrities like Sydney Sweeney, Khloe Kardashian, and Hailey Bieber. Bloomberg tested the app along with a researcher named Ben Edelman and a rival app called Capital One Shopping. They checked more than 50 shopping websites, including #Walmart, #Nike, and #Zara. Here is what they found. When someone was about to finish buying something, Phia's app secretly opened a hidden browser tab in the background, without the person clicking anything or asking for it. That hidden tab quietly told the store "this sale came from Phia," then closed itself within seconds. Most people never saw it happen. This means Phia could take the money back reward even if a person found the item completely on their own, or even if they clicked a link from a totally different website first. In one test, someone clicked a deal link from a Wirecutter article to buy something on Nordstrom. Phia's hidden tab quietly swapped in its own code and took the reward meant for Wirecutter instead. This trick is called cookie stuffing. It is against the rules of every major store and shopping network involved, including Walmart, eBay, and a platform called Impact(.)com. Impact(.)com has already suspended Phia's account and is now checking Phia's past sales to see how many were affected. Phia says this was a mistake in their code from December, and they fixed it within a day of being told about it. This is not Phia's first problem. Back in November, researchers found an older version of the app was secretly copying entire webpages a person visited, including bank statements and private emails, and sending that data to Phia's servers. The company said it was only trying to figure out which websites were shopping sites, and it has since changed the app to stop doing that. A similar accusation happened to PayPal's Honey app in 2024, and PayPal is still dealing with a lawsuit over it today. Phia is now facing the exact same kind of accusation, in just its first year.

  @Demura_Dusk 💯💯💯 It's disgusting how many bastards are out here filling their coffers off of the death, suffering, starvation and loss that the Palestinians have faced and are facing. Those people are the scum of all scum. Another problem with this is, they're already losing 25-35% off the top, depending on the rates at the exchange, where most of them collect their money from. Add that 20% on top, along with any other fees, like Stripe/Paypal, they are r3eceiving a very small percentage of their own funds, while having to pay exhorbtitant rates for food and daily living necessities.

  IREN mercenary (@InvestingSt0cks) reported 56 minutes ago

  When IREN, NVIDIA, and Mirantis talk about a "vertically integrated system," they are aiming to solve the single largest, most expensive bottleneck in the entire AI ecosystem. ​Traditionally, the data center world has operated like a fragmented puzzle: one company owns the land and power grid connection, another builds the concrete facility, a third buys the NVIDIA chips, a fourth installs the cloud operating system, and a fifth tries to write the software layer so the end customer can actually run their AI models. When something breaks, or when a chip generation changes, everyone points fingers, and operations grind to a halt for months. ​By vertically integrating, these companies are building a seamless, end-to-end AI Factory. Their tagline says it all: "Metal-to-Model." They own and control every single layer of the stack: ​The 4 Layers of the Integrated Stack ​1. Land, Power, and Infrastructure (IREN) ​IREN handles the heavy foundational lifting. They secure gigawatt-scale power interconnections and massive land parcels (such as their multi-gigawatt Sweetwater campus) and build the highly specialized physical data centers themselves. Because they own the infrastructure from the dirt up, there are no middlemen inflating margins or delaying deployments. ​2. Supercomputing and Silicon (NVIDIA) ​NVIDIA provides the world’s most powerful AI accelerators (like the Hopper and Blackwell architectures) and the ultra-low-latency networking (InfiniBand) required to connect thousands of GPUs into a single supercomputer. NVIDIA works directly with IREN to deploy these systems based on the NVIDIA DSX blueprint—the standardized operating platform for massive AI factories. ​3. Automation and OS Layer (Mirantis / k0rdent AI) ​This is the critical software piece that IREN acquired for $625 million. Mirantis’s k0rdent AI platform acts as the brain of the data center. It integrates directly into NVIDIA's framework (like the NVIDIA Infra Controller) to automate everything. The moment a new server rack is plugged into the wall, the software automatically provisions it, deploys the software stack, and securely isolates the customer's data. ​4. Cloud Services and Enterprise Access (IREN Cloud) ​At the very top sits the finished cloud platform used by enterprise customers (such as Hume AI, Adobe, PayPal, or MetLife). The end customer doesn't need to worry about power grids, cooling loops, or manual NVIDIA firmware updates. They simply log into the IREN Cloud interface and immediately begin training or running their models. ​Why is this approach so disruptive? ​Day-Zero Future-Proofing (Continuous Architecture Readiness): When NVIDIA rolls out a new generation of chips (such as shifting from Blackwell to the upcoming Vera Rubin architecture), a vertically integrated stack allows the software to adapt instantly. Data center operators can transition seamlessly without having to completely redesign their physical layouts, operations models, or software provisioning from scratch. ​Radically Faster Time-to-Revenue: In a fragmented model, a GPU cloud provider might spend months manually tweaking and debugging their software stack before they can start selling compute power. With Mirantis and NVIDIA deeply integrated into IREN's hardware, new capacity can be spun up and monetized in days, not months. ​In short, they are turning AI compute into a plug-and-play utility. Instead of making customers source the power plant, the wiring, the outlet, and the appliance separately, they deliver the entire ecosystem as one single, highly optimized package.
