Found a good Forbes Article [https://web.archive.org/web/20260201051310/https://www.forbe...]

> Hong Kong-based Rich Sparkle Holdings (ANPA) reported to the SEC on Jan. 9 it was acquiring Lame's Step Distinctive Limited, and announced the $975 million all-stock transaction closed in a press release two days later.

> Rich Sparkle boasted the deal would offer a "structured, exclusive, full-chain, platform-style commercialization system" around Lame, who would be a "controlling shareholder," and whose likeness would be replicated by an "AI Digital Twin."

> Soon after, Rich Sparkle's stock skyrocketed over 650%, reaching a high of $180.64 per share on January 15, with Lame's stake worth $6.6 billion (based on his 49% ownership of Step Distinctive, which gave him a 41% stake in its buyer), though due to limited disclosure requirements for foreign entities, it's unclear whether Lame sold any shares.

> Rich Sparkle had first listed on Nasdaq six months prior in July, in a small offering of 1.25 million shares priced at $4 each with an implied enterprise value of about $50 million, according to SEC filings, and it disclosed 2024 revenue of under $6 million from "designing and printing high quality financial materials."

> Rich Sparkle's sudden shift in focus, explosive stock growth and quick crash---it's dropped as low as $41, 77% from its peak---has some critics raising "red flags."

> Lame, who has over 160 million followers on TikTok and 78 million on Instagram, only commented on the deal 11 days after Rich Sparkle announced it had closed, saying "Congratulations to the team at ANPA very excited to be a shareholder and looking forward to doing great things!" (Lame and Rich Sparkle have not responded to Forbes' requests for comment).

> Based on Rich Sparkle's most recent stock price, Lame's net worth appears to be $3 billion, but given its tiny float of less than 5%, Forbes would value it based on its financials and not its stock price, meaning he's nowhere close to being a billionaire.

I saw headlines such as ANPA bought Khaby Lames company for ~$900M but nobody is pointing out how sketchy it looks.

What I gathered, the $975M deal was paid in stock = 75,000,000 new ANPA shares to the sellers which is roughly $13 a share.

If they really issue 75M new shares (vs ~12.5M outstanding, ish), doesn't that basically destroy the scarcity and force the price to re-anchor closer to the $13ish deal valuation? Like post, deal you're at ~87.5M shares, so even a ~$1B valuation is like $11/$13 a share not $60/$100/$180.

And... $975M for an influencer operating company sounds totally crazy if there isn't any real revenue/EBITDA that supports it. Does anyone have the actual numbers for Step Distinctive / Khabys business? Any comparable deals where an influencer brand was valued anywhere close to this?

What am I missing?

Totally understandable! I don’t want to undersell how cool this project was! Thank you so much for sharing!

I was extremely excited until I looked closer and realized how many of these look like ... well AI. The article is such a good read and would recommend people check it out.

Feels like something is missing... maybe just a pixelation effect over the actual result? Seems like a lot of the images also lack continuity (something they go over in the article)

Overall, such a cool usage of AI that blends Art and AI well.

This is a pretty interesting visualization tool!

I had a few ideas for some areas for improvement:

1. Interactive Debugging - It would be great if users could click through the code line by line to see how execution flows.

2. UI Improvements – There's a lot of whitespace. Consider:

   - Moving the title to the top left to free up space.  
   - Flattening the buttons for a cleaner, more modern look.

3. More Context – A brief explanation of why visualizing goroutines is useful (e.g., debugging race conditions, understanding concurrency) could make it more accessible to newcomers.

4. Goroutine Analysis – Could be cool to highlight:

   - Goroutines that are still running after execution ends.  
   - Common concurrency issues like improper synchronization or goroutine leaks.

Those bounds are fairly wide. Also, my other frustration was an article that has provocative headline, great for sending to your friends, but doesn't do anything but link the study. What are the odds someone is going to read the study? What are the odds they are going to go and learn what HR rate is?

Seems to me all good things for this article to do.

How much more risk? Is this a hit piece by big sugar or something? This article is so sparse on details. Exposure to the sun increases the risk of cancer. Emissions let off by cars increases the risk of cancer. I’m just curious…

The HR has fairly large bounds... 1.03 to 1.25 so there is increased risk but this still does not tell you if people who consume a lot of sugar substitutes also exhibit behaviors that increase their risk of cancers. Such as also consuming highly processed food.

viginti_tres, your experience is ubiquitous. I am the exact same age and have noticed a similar pattern for everyone my age. I am sure a lot of people are well intentioned but these simple solutions of finding new friends is just not that simple. Alcohol is extremely prevalent in the US. People are self medicating and using it as a form of escapism.

One thing I have anecdotally noticed is there are some parts of the US that are much more oriented towards drinking than others, such as NYC.

Agreed it is a solid risk. I want to spend some time with wireshark to see if I can get something of my own going until an official local api is released.

I own one and here are my thoughts:

So far it has been an extremely reliable product that was fun to get some scripts running on. I use a raspberry pie with a cron job to update the board with the weather and my daily schedule. Board actually looks extremely repairable for each individual character, and have has no issues with reliability in ~6mo.

API currently is through a rest interface which they have promised to keep free despite charging for plugins shared through their a subscription model. They had promised a native/local API but I have not heard anything from that.

Overall would recommend but it falls in the tech art category for sure.

I own one. No issues with readability. In fact I’d say it’s easier to read than most fonts. Online pictures don’t do it justice.

I’d switch the order of the testimonials so it says: company name, title. Right now it reads like a bunch of testimonials from your own company when looking around.

The original title of the paper was "Comparing SARS-CoV-2 natural immunity to vaccine-induced immunity: reinfections versus breakthrough infections." It's important to point out that the paper isn't just one fact but a collection of facts that form nuance.

To me science mags title is much more sensationalistic and there is a reason they did not chose a title more closely aligned to what the authors of the original study chose.
