Their words
This is why they will fail. They are not nation-builders; they will always splinter, divide, and find new internal enemies to attack.

Build Canada Homes was created to do one thing: get more homes built faster, right across the country. In Manitoba, we’re bringing governments and builders together to deliver hundreds of new affordable homes. Quoting @gregorrobertson A home is where families grow and futures are built, and every Canadian deserves one that’s safe and affordable. Today in Winnipeg, we announced a partnership between Build Canada Homes, the Province of Manitoba, and the City of Winnipeg that will deliver more than 800 new rental homes for Manitoba… Related

Today, we're putting the cowboys out of business. Most builders in this country are decent people who take pride in their work and charge a fair price for it. But the small number who don’t follow the same pattern: take a big deposit, do half a job, then disappear with your hard-earned money. That's got to change. So we're backing a new system that gives you the option to have your money held safely and released bit by bit as the work is completed. Do the work, get paid. It's as simple as that. And we'll help our good builders stand out from the cowboys too. Tradespeople who meet our new set… Related

it was a blast covering Build Fest this year - they didnt know this but I learned to code with MongoDB over 10 years ago (shoutout MERN stack) and now in the AI Engineering era seeing SF builders rediscover MDB was so gratifying - this was a *huge* step up from last year! Quoting @MongoDB ICYMI: Everything announced at #MongoDBlocal Build Fest is designed to help developers stay in flow and ship production AI, faster. From the new Atlas Managed MCP Server for Agents and native Atlas access inside @claudeai, Claude Code, @ChatGPT, Codex, @grok Build, @DevinAI, & @cursor_ai, to Automa… Related

Had the pleasure of chatting at @spc Bangalore. So many great builders and electric energy in the garden city. Never been a better time to be an entrepreneur and build what you believe the world needs. Quoting @prateekmehta42 The best builders keep choosing the beginner’s seat. They move fast, break stuff and are unafraid of going after scary things! That’s the thread that ran through my conversation with @joulee, on her arc from @facebook to @TeamSundial! We talked about design taste, the leap from managing to founding… energy Related

I don’t usually post DMs, but this is a rare exception as I actually asked him before doing so and he consented. Danial is a local Malaysian. Several months ago he asked “Would be cool if you could repost our current portfolio of projects as well, under KD Labs 👀”. I invited him to the Network School campus, as I do many Malaysian builders. He also said he wanted to build a virtual campus for Malaysians, a similar vision to me regarding a network state. Of course, I support him in that vision! And of course it shows that the concept of the network state, like the concept of cryptocurrency, h… Quoting @masterofnone The Network School (@ns) drama is all over the Internet What's really happening?

What is a korrent?
A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one
sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at
korrents.com .
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said.
The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in
korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who
else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public
statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.
Got it
About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they
do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in
this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the
serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to
quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter,
especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked
article and a belief on korrents.com
are left in their original language.
