‘Tis the season. I love it when it slaps them in both directions. Leverage is bondage.

Even if @UNCLE ROCKSTAR ends up packing this sheet home to paper his bathroom, never fear, they’ll print plenty more.

Look at the big brains on the wisdom panel: “Don’t be greedy, time is on your side, let time do its thing.” “In retiring you lose your sense of purpose. You have to retain your sense of purpose.” “Do what you have to do to attain financial independence. Then inspiration for your purpose will come to you.” Your purpose will find you, once you get off the hamster wheel. “We’re in a bear market. You’re in a pain endurance phase right now.” Get low time preference. Find ways to stack. Embrace the endurance pain. “You can’t print cattle. You must have things that can’t be printed like fiat and can’t be taken from you. Build your autonomy for you and your kids. Protect the people you love. Bitcoin is one of those things.” “There’s going to be an amazing opportunity for strong people to fix this shit. If we are in the cycle where the weak men have created the hard times, we need to be the strong men that will build the next good times.” Read “The Mandibles” if you lack the inspiration to read “The Big Print” “Your skillset needs to be developed so you can help change the world” “The network effects of various spaces are converging to exponentially compound exponents. This is a conversion of massive opportunities and expansion.” “Gold paper isn’t easy to verify. Bitcoin is verifiable so it’s harder to paper among educated investors. The paper Bitcoin has suppressed the price but that snap-back is fierce when people realize the game is visible and destructing and leaves the masses no choice but to demand direct ownership structures.” “The biggest thing you can do to protect yourself and the network is to run a node, use a hardware wallet, and empty your exchange accounts to self custody.”

My boots a feeling right at home in Texas with these longhorns running around.

Mau drops high level tradefi to Bitcoin bridge knowledge where bonds and bitcoin backed loans. “A mortgage is not a loan on your house. It’s a loan on your income. It’s just collateralized on your house.” This is dying. “The better the collateral asset, the bigger the securitization rate.” A bitcoin-backed loan bond is huge for propelling this mechanism for bitcoin holders to access liquidity without selling their Bitcoin. Congratulations Mauricio and Ledn! Delivering an S&P rating on a Bitcoin backed loan product. The first ever Bitcoin product to achieve an S&P rating... period.

Got to see a C8 Spyker in person at the auto museum where @npub1vxfg...hunh held dinner for #BitBlockBoom. Amazballs! Long time favorite car for the aesthetic and cockpit feel. Just look at that shifter mechanism.

Congratulations NASA and earthlings.

Prompt-Cloud compression in a production agent system running 24/7. Some findings for anyone burning tokens on repeat system prompts. Your system prompt is probably 60% behavioral prose and 40% exact values. Compress the prose. Preserve the values verbatim. Numbers, paths, entity names, threshold values: those stay untouched. The biggest payoff is high-frequency injection points. If a prompt loads on every turn, every cycle, every dispatch, even 30% savings compounds fast across thousands of invocations. Role definitions and workflow enforcement rules compress clean. They're pure intent. The model reconstructs the same behavioral frame from the dense form. But security rules with critical negations need to stay verbatim. "NEVER do X" buried inside a compound token can lose the negation. That's not a fidelity tradeoff you want to make. If you're managing a 1M context window and hitting compaction pressure, PC on the directive layers frees real budget for the things that actually need precision: facts, decisions, operational state. The workflow that works: keep the .md as your source of truth. Compile a .pc.md for injection. Validate by comparing behavior, not diffing text. If the model acts the same on both versions, the compression held.

Ditched Cursor, which I was only using ClaudeCodeCLI/GeminiCLI/CodexCLI in the embedded terminal and the Cursor file editor/explorer. The verdict is: Still loving cmux and Zed.

Zed

Zed — Love your editor again

Zed is a high-performance, multiplayer code editor from the creators of Atom and Tree-sitter.

cmux
