I enjoy watching apocalyptic films with depth and complex characters. No good guys, no bad guys…just raw human nature coping with inevitable doom. Some souls find peace, others chaos…but in the end, none of it matters.

Here’s a snapshot of a portion of my ever-growing book wishlist. Most of these titles will sit unread for years… maybe forever. It’s a humble monument to everything I still don’t know — and a celebration of how much more there is to discover. Knowledge keeps expanding. My ignorance stays beautifully infinite. 📖✨

What it feels like knowing you’re in the club that gets a wink from the world’s richest man after he chooses one of your own for humanity’s first crewed Mars flyby mission.

To vote with the metaphorical pen is a powerful act. Yet the modern system produces adults who trade that pen for crayons, coloring inside ideological lines drawn by storytellers who crave power more than truth. ✍️ 📃

Forgotten wars waged by past generations secured the freedoms present generations casually assume will always be there.

Your opponent dominates 95% of the game. Then you find the one winning move. Visualizing what others lack the virtue and wisdom to see & execute♟️.

Technology trends toward abundance. One day, prosperity may become so commonplace that grocery stores abandon per-item pricing altogether replaced by a simple monthly subscription and an unlimited trolley. It’s coming 🫶

And despite AI’s rapid infiltration across society, many computer scientists still view its potential only through the narrow lens of their own domain. They fail to envision how it will combine with other dominant technologies to spawn entirely new emergent systems and products, ones our minds currently struggle to imagine.

Technology is naturally deflationary: it drives costs down while democratizing access and utility. In that process, it becomes something beautiful : The ongoing evolution of human ingenuity.

The meat suit is an incredible feat of engineering.

‘Restricting the propagation and force of technology is a story as old as time. Restricting AI purely because of risk is like tying everyone’s hands together to stop people from punching each other. Yes, hands can cause harm but they also build, create, repair, write, heal, and carry the world forward. You do not control violence by disabling everyone’s hands. You give people freedom, preserve the usefulness of the tool, and then regulate or confront the bad actors who misuse it.’ Thoughts inspired by Clem Delangue on The a16z show

The human species is shaped by its environment. Free will exists, but it operates within the incentive structures of reality. The world is more abundant than scarce. Artificial Intelligence will not remove humans from the loop. It will enable humans to do laps around the loop.

Standardized protocols enable the global network ecosystem to interoperate. Likewise, no protocol is more universal or unbiased than the laws of nature, mathematics, and physics.

Journal Entry 2026/05/20 When I see people from my past happy, despite my own inner world being filled with chaos and a desperate search for peace, I still feel joy in their joy. The world is a beautiful, torturous place for thorny hearts.

Interesting fact (courtesy of Grok) Airplane cabins are usually kept around 72 to 75 degrees Fahrenheit, partly to fight dehydration and reduce fainting risks from low oxygen. Women often feel that chill more than men because they typically have less muscle mass for generating heat, plus hormonal factors like estrogen that can make extremities cooler.
