In the Cixin Liu Supernova Era, a freak cosmic event caused radiation to spread killing everyone aged 13 and above. Children are left to govern the world. The way some world leaders are acting right now, you'd think we're already in the Supernova Era. I wrote about the Supernova Era recently 👇 #bookstr

My thoughts on Cixin Liu’s novel, The Supernova Era

We collect endless data points but fail to see the point of data.

When someone says, "Put your money into Bitcoin," I know they don't get it. #bitcoin isn't for growing your money--it's for leaving money behind. 1 BTC = 1 BTC. Fiat price fluctuations only show how unstable fiat is, not Bitcoin. Fiat price is just the exchange rate. Zap ⚡️ or 🤙 or Repost 🔄 if you agree.

Everyone talks about a 4-day workweek. But what we really need is a 3-day weekend.

First post published. This feels different. Posting on social media you don’t really put much thought in it. At most, I just re-read it once and click the send button. I don’t truly edit, re-write, re-read, re-write again. I’m happy to get back in it again. Now on to the next one!

📢 I’m launching my newsletter soon — Code & Codex

Weekly long-form essays focusing on tech and culture, a mix of personal anecdotes, thought experiments, and obscure internet lore.

I remember this used to be an old tradition in Twitter, #followfriday just want to bring it here on #nostr Suggest interesting accounts to follow here for #followfriday 😁

Is Twitter co-founder Jack Dorsey, the #bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto? There are theories that say he is. You can read what other people had written about all the coincidence that lead them to think that Jack Dorsey is Satoshi. But here is what I find to be interesting. During late 2008 and 2009 the time when the Bitcoin white-paper was published by Satoshi and the development of the initial Bitcoin network, Jack Dorsey was at that time the co-founder and CEO of Square, a new point-of-sale service that accepts credit and debit cards. Imagine the CEO of a traditional POS company, traditional in the sense that it is using VISA / MasterCard and conventional banking facilities, is secretly working on a new p2p payment system that would challenge the conventional financial institution system. It is as if the CEO of the centralised microblogging social media platform, Twitter, had initiated an initiative to create a competing decentralised protocol. Imagine the CEO of Twitter, while being the CEO of Twitter, starts working on Bluesky. Actually, that was exactly what happened. Jack Dorsey, was at that time the CEO of Twitter, when he announced the Bluesky initiative to explore the possibility of a decentralised Twitter. That is crazy, it is like someone who is a board member of Bluesky, donated 14 Bitcoin — over a quarter million dollars at that time — to fund a competing decentralise social network protocol, #nostr . This time, technically it didn’t exactly happen that way, if my research is correct, Jack Dorsey stepped down from Bluesky board of directors before making that donation to Nostr. But these two events happened in the same year, though. “Never let them know your next move” ......

DeepSeek, Deep Research, Deep State. We need to go deeper.

Nostr veterans help me understand how #nostr is censorship-resistant. Correct me if I get this wrong. When you post, you are posting to relays, multiple relays perhaps. What is stopping relays from censoring you? To drop any post coming from you? But then again anybody can run their own relays and anyone connected to that relay will be able to see your post. Hence this is what makes Nostr censorship-resistant, correct? Technically you don't have to agree to any terms and conditions when you want to participate in the network. Is my understanding correct?

The bones were not natural to him. His mutant power was that he can heal fast, so they operated on him and replace his bones with adamantium. Did I get the lore correct #comic fans? View quoted note →

The AI reasoning model outputs several paragraphs of its "thinking", only to give its final answer in a single short sentence, is me when I answer work emails. #ai

We are all so busy being the main character of our life story, that we forget to be the supporting cast in other people's stories.

I just realised this, on #nostr sometimes your “2 cents” might actually worth 2 cents. I should post more here! #zapatr

51 - Canada 52 - Greenland 53 - Panama And now... 54 - Gaza ? Dude is making bold opening moves. Perhaps this is The Art of the Deal. Let's see how it will play out. #politics

Did #deepseek get high-end Nvidia chips through #singapore The answer is no. But it is crazy to think about the prospect of an actual GPU chip smuggling ring. It is like living in William Gibson / Neal Stephenson #cyberpunk novel.
