Cookie and I want to congratulate our friends Ben and Felicia Horowitz on announcing they will be building the first children’s only hospital in the state of Nevada! It’s incredible that one health scare with one of their children has turned into a blessing that is certainly going to save the lives of many children and have a tremendous impact on the families within in the Las Vegas community!

Bringing Manufacturing Home.
Anduril isn’t even 10 years old yet. Imagine what they’ll be building in 50 years.
American Designed. American Built. 🇺🇸🚀💪
Thank you, @PalmerLuckey.
BlueChip. Built in America.
America made the first electronic computer to win a war.
Now we depend on our greatest adversaries to build the computers that run our economy and defend our nation.
Today, we bring it home.

The SEC's initial proposal for Reg Crypto Assets was an important first step towards creating a clear fundraising pathway for builders of blockchain networks.
Yesterday, @a16zcrypto submitted recommendations to make that pathway more useful and durable.

Fred Warner has gotten away with multiple illegal hits to the head or receivers in the process of making the catch, as Troy Aikman said on the broadcast.
That was incorrect to pick up that flag, as the replay clearly showed. That was an illegal hit by Fred Warner for a blow to the head of a defenseless receiver.

2. Public internal
3. Private, agent accessible by default
4. Sensitive, not agent accessible by default
