focus on stacking more sats!

when you like a post it’s basically zero responsibility. no way to know if you actually value it or not. it’s just a fake interaction, appreciation, or thank you, whatever you call it. it’s just fake.

i don’t think likes should have any contributing value in trending notes algorithm. obviously people will keep liking notes until they’re gone, and i do too, but it shouldn’t count toward the signal at all.

Got my boat operator’s license yesterday. Knocked out a full day of out-of-water lessons and a 60-question state exam last week. Wrapped up my first on-water training this morning in about 3 hours. Next up is another on-water training with a bigger boat on Tuesday. After that, get ready for some legendary nostr vlogs from the captain himself. 🚤

random sunday morning thought: traditional search is dead. long live ai semantic search. make sure you appear on these answers, ‘cause if you’re not in the answer, you don’t exist.

Beyond Meat should pivot to Real Meat and announce a BTC treasury! 🤣

When you let a centralized corporation like twitter decide who gets rewarded and how much, you end up with a flood of garbage content clogging everyone’s feed. The right way is the Nostr way. I decide what’s worth rewarding and give value straight to the content, not through a middleman or some algorithm serving its own interests. That’s how you keep it real.

Here’s what I’ve been thinkg recently. If ai wipes out a big chunk of jobs by making everything far more efficient… is that inflationary or deflationary? I’m betting on deflation. If 1 in 5 people are out of work, what happens to housing prices? How much is a car worth if commuting gets cut in half? Vinod Khosla predicts that in 20 yrs, $10k will buy more than $50k does today and his track record on this stuff is almost scary. With over $35T national debt, current interest rates and massive money printing, I almost find this prediction an insulting joke. But again, his track record scares me. So if ai makes the future massively deflationary, the real question is what happens to capitalism when humanity finally meets with true abundance again after several centuries?

A good product matters, but product–market fit matters more. When you have both, nothing can stop you.

BTC Implied Volatility. Supply shock’s next!

The internet disrupted libraries. AI will do the same to universities. Before the internet, libraries were the go-to place for information. Same reason our parents lined their shelves with encyclopedia sets. Now most libraries feel obsolete. College education, aside from the hard sciences, is heading the same way. In a few years it’ll look just as outdated. AI will replace the bloated, overpriced, lecture-based education system that’s long overdue for disruption and unnecessary in a modern tech-based society.

None of us actually care about Bitcoin’s price or even Bitcoin itself as a digital asset or form of money. What we truly care about is stability, peace, and more time with the people we love. In the end, it’s freedom that we all care about.
