Every few years, I get a hankering for a deep dish pizza. Tonight might be that occasion

Why dinosaurs are so damn cool - they're crazy old (like hundreds of millions of years) - they were huge - their bones fossilized and survived all this time until we dug them up - no one knew they existed for centuries - we still don't really know what they looked like, but it's fun to guess - they dominated the planet for millions of years and then basically vanished I had fun at the museum

Paying for basic internet services like email and search are still really new ideas, but I think people are realizing the value. I see zaps as a natural extension of this idea, and if this trend continues the web is going to look really different in a few years

Excited to see this audio track NIP move forward. Wavlake will be deprecating our old track events and migrating to this new standard soon

I'm still catching up from the fever dream that was Nashville last week... just wanted to say how excellent it was seeing so many of you and being able to enjoy so much great music together. I couldn't help smiling the whole time. Thank you to everyone who helped make it happen! 🙌

I spent the day with the theme song to the 1990 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie bouncing around inside my head. It was synthtastic

We are the music makers. And we are the dreamers of the dreams.

Hear me out: what if you turned your phone off every once in a while 😳

Artists have a totally valid argument that gen-AI is built on their work and it's a form of property infringement. They have every right to fight this. At the same time, I'm not convinced government intervention will be effective in wrangling this freight train. It’s left the station. In the long run, people will decide. And if AI-generated music takes over the world and dominates every mainstream way of listening to music, that’s on us. And no, it’s not a fair fight, which is why I think any attempt to level the playing field is reasonable. But laws alone aren’t the answer. We need more tools to enable creative work outside the mainstream. And my optimistic side still thinks there’s some kid out there who’ll figure out how to master these new tools to make incredible, original music. I’d like to give ourselves the best chance to see that happen. https://artistrightsnow.medium.com/200-artists-urge-tech-platforms-stop-devaluing-music-559fb109bbac
