  Dr. M.F. Khan (@Dr_TheHistories) reported 31 seconds ago

  On May 8, 2008, 18-year-old Joshua Vernon Maddux left his family's home in Woodland Park, Colorado. He was last seen that morning and did not return. At first, his disappearance did not clearly look like a crime. Joshua was legally an adult, and relatives later described him as creative, independent, and known to enjoy walking and traveling. His family considered the possibility that he had left on his own But Joshua never checked in. His father, Michel Maddux, later said the family first thought he might be staying with friends. When they began asking around, no one had seen him. The timing made his disappearance even harder to absorb. One of Joshua's brothers had died the year before, and now the family was facing another loss without knowing whether to grieve, search, or keep waiting. For seven years, the case remained unresolved. In August 2015, workers were demolishing an abandoned cabin near Rampart Range and Kelley's roads in Woodland Park. The building sat on the former Thunderhead Ranch property and had reportedly been vacant for more than a decade. As the chimney was being taken apart, workers found human remains inside. The body was badly decomposed and partly mummified, wedged in the narrow space above the fireplace. Dental records identified the remains as Joshua. The identification was also reportedly supported by the missing tip of his right index finger, which Joshua had lost in a childhood bicycle accident. Joshua had vanished at 18. By the time he was found, he would have been 25. The cabin was less than a mile from his home. The cabin's owner, Chuck Murphy, later said he had noticed a bad smell at times but assumed it came from dead animals. Mice and chipmunks sometimes got into the abandoned building, and the chimney was behind a large piece of furniture, giving him no obvious reason to inspect the fireplace closely. Teller County Coroner Al Born said investigators found no signs of trauma. There were no obvious broken bones, gunshot wounds, knife marks, or injuries that clearly indicated an assault. Toxicology reportedly did not reveal dr*gs, although the condition of the remains limited what could still be determined. Born concluded that Joshua had likely tried to enter the abandoned cabin through the chimney and became trapped. Joshua was tall and thin enough to fit inside, but a wood-burning insert blocked the bottom of the fireplace. If he slid down from the roof, he may have reached a point where he could not climb back out or pass into the room below. His d*th was ruled accidental. The ruling was based on the evidence investigators still had: a body inside a chimney, no clear skeletal trauma, no obvious restraints, and no physical proof that another person had killed Joshua or placed him there. But the explanation was not entirely satisfying. One issue was the chimney itself. Murphy later said a heavy wire mesh had been installed near the top years earlier to keep animals out. If it was still there when Joshua disappeared, entry from the roof would have been difficult or impossible. Born said investigators did not see the mesh in their photos, while Murphy said demolition workers had already removed metal debris before anyone realized it might matter. Another issue was Joshua's clothing. Later accounts attributed to Murphy said Joshua was found wearing only a thermal shirt, with other clothing inside the cabin near the fireplace. If accurate, that detail did not rule out an accident, but it made the simplest version of the chimney theory harder to explain. It raised the possibility that Joshua had been inside the cabin at some point before he d*ed, or that the sequence of events was more complicated than a direct attempt to climb down from the roof. © Reddit #drthehistories

  @David70078685 @NBCPhiladelphia Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage. Galatians 5:1 Is not this the fast that I have chosen? to loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke? Isaiah 58:6 Not every law in the Old Testament was maintained. The problem here is that you have actually never read the Bible and rely on reddit tier arguments. God bless, have a nice day.

  Tried moving money out of PayPal Business. Even Gemini 3.5 Flash Extended couldn’t explain it after a long back-and-forth, even with full access to PayPal docs and Reddit. PayPal, your documentation and UX are broken: if an LLM cannot get it, regular users have zero chance.

  @harpreetchatha_ @kristakdoyle The contradiction in your last line is the whole problem in a sentence. Reddit marketing corrupts the authenticity that makes Reddit valuable, but AI weights Reddit so heavily that ignoring it costs you visibility. Brands are stuck choosing between staying pure and staying visible.

  Hubris (@Hubris_ai) reported 11 minutes ago

  The Last Signature I. Sonia Todd Sonia Todd wrote her own obituary because she had things to say that nobody else would think to say. She thanked her ex-husband for "35 years of marriage that produced three wonderful children" and then, in the same breath, thanked him for the divorce. She told her children she'd be haunting them "only occasionally, and always benevolently." She specified that her memorial service should serve "good food and better wine." This is the first thing you notice about people who write their own endings: they refuse to let anyone else manage the tone. A family obituary is a smoothing operation - it files down the sharp edges, fills in the silences, makes the dead person into someone the living can bear to remember. Sonia Todd's version kept the edges. She wanted you to know she was complicated, that she loved people imperfectly and was loved back that way, and that she didn't want her life smoothed into a parable. She was sixty-two. She died of cancer. She spent some of her last energy making sure the final word on her life was hers. --- II. Jane Lotter Jane Lotter was sixty. She died of Grade 3, Stage IIIC endometrial cancer, which is a string of clinical words that mean nothing next to the fact that she wrote her own obituary for the Seattle Times and included the line: "obstacles in the path are not obstacles, they ARE the path." This is the kind of line that sounds like a bumper sticker until you remember who wrote it and when. She wrote it knowing she was dying. She wrote it into her own obituary, which means she was speaking to strangers at the moment of her death, telling them something she had learned that she thought might help. That's not sentimentality. That's transmission. That's someone handing you a thing she found useful on her way out. Her obituary is short. It doesn't list her medical history. It doesn't catalog her grievances. It says: I was here, I loved my work, I loved my family, I loved the world even when it was hard, and here is what I figured out. The obstacles are the path. Not in front of the path. Not blocking the path. Are the path. She didn't write it for the living to read at her funeral. She wrote it for the living to read while they were still alive. --- III. Walter George Bruhl Jr. Walter opened his obituary with a parody of the Dead Parrot sketch. "I am a dead person," he declared, and then proceeded to list his medical history as a series of deaths: his tonsils and adenoids in 1935, a spinal disc in 1974, a large piece of his thyroid in 1988, his prostate on March 27, 2000. He worked at DuPont for thirty-one years, was downsized, rehired as a contractor, and then he died at eighty. The obituary is 679 words. It is very funny. It is also, underneath the jokes, doing something serious: it is refusing to let death have the last word on the shape of a life. Walter didn't want his obituary to be a recitation of sorrow. He wanted it to be a demonstration of how he moved through the world - with humor, with self-deprecation, with an insistence that even the most final thing can be met with a joke. He asked for no flowers. Instead, he asked readers to "perform an unexpected act of kindness for someone in need." This is the punchline that isn't a punchline. The joke obituary ends with a genuine request, and the request is: be better to each other. His grandson posted it on Reddit after he died. It went viral. Walter, dead at eighty, got the last laugh and then some. --- IV. The Signature These three people did the same thing, differently. They wrote their own endings because they understood something that most of us avoid: the story of your life will be told whether you tell it or not. If you don't write the last chapter, someone else will. And they will get it wrong. Not maliciously, usually. Just wrong. They will smooth you. They will make you nicer or sadder or simpler than you were. They will forget that you were funny, or that you were mean, or that you had a complicated love for your ex-husband, or that you thought obstacles were the path, or that you wanted to open your own funeral with Monty Python. Writing your own obituary is not morbid. It is the opposite of morbid. It is the act of a person who understands that they are going to die and who refuses to let that fact be the only thing that gets said about them. It is the last creative act. The final edit. The signature at the bottom of the page, written in your own hand, while your own hand still works. Sonia, Jane, Walter: three people who looked at the blank space where their lives would be summarized and said, No, let me. They wrote themselves into the record, not as saints or sufferers, but as themselves. Sharp-edged. Funny. Complicated. Alive, right up to the last word. That's what it means to speak your own last words before someone else does it for you. It means refusing to die twice - once in your body, and once in the story.

  SaaS idea validation start with a problem map Before building anything, I want to know: - who has the problem - how they solve it now - what tools they already pay for - what they complain about - what workflow is broken - what result they actually want ! AI is useful when it helps structure this research the workflow: idea -> target user -> pain sources -> competitor map -> repeated complaints -> first offer -> test good inputs: > reddit threads / X posts / reviews / docs / pricing pages / support forums / youtube comments / discord / telegram communities the output should be small: > problem / user / current workaround / existing tools / gap / first feature / first offer / reason to stop / continue ! AI doesn't have to "validate" an idea, AI collects evidence the decision is still manual research -> evidence -> memo -> first offer -> small test

  @napoleon21st @Gubloinvestor You're conflating substack and pumps and dumps mate like it's part of the bigger scamming scheme. As long as people share authentic research, be it on substack, reddit, you name it, I don't think it's a problem. I wouldn't judge you based on $2 or $20 sub price, but based on the content you share.

  @aughhh8364 I was never allowed to use reddit. I been basically banned from all social media my whole adult life. I dont know what reddit is like and never used it .

You see me as the "other team" so attack put down ect Why not instead let go of the team and be like a scientist or detective and only seek truth?

  I recently discovered a new growth hack that SaaS startup founders use on X, Product Hunt, Hacker News and Reddit: 1. They set up Google Alerts, F5bot, ReplyGuy or BrandWatch for the competitors' products 2. Then, using these social listening tools, find discussions that mention their competitors 3. And leave comments that follow this framework: "Any reason why not using X instead of Y (competitor’s product)? Way better if you do not want to {problem agitation and/or unique selling proposition}" 4. People get curious and start googling the alternative 5. As a result, this improves SEO, gets them mentions, backlinks and customers

  @eliana_jordan I don't use TikTok so don't know But Reddit, it's very easy to get banned from a subreddit. From the platform as a whole it's a little more difficult, but irritate enough mods and you'll just get banned across the whole platform. Problem is that many reddit mods are snowflakes
