'Bitcoin mining is taking excess energy and storing it into a new form. It's called currency. And you take that currency wherever you like. So you took energy from one place and now you've transported it everywhere.' - Jensen Huang

Expanding consciousness always happens in the present moment.

Forgive and try again.

'Expanding Consciousness' sounds mystical and something only reserved to the elite, but the core essence of it is simple. Imagine you're watching TV in your living room. The contents of your consciousness at that time is whatever is on TV. Then suddenly you're not only aware of the TV, but you're aware of the room that holds the TV, and you're aware of yourself in that room. Taking this core essence and applying it to greater and greater levels

The fiat dollar will be devalued and all notions of wealth will gradually align with the AI’s growth, energy backed resources like Bitcoin, real estate investment trusts that own datacenters, semiconductor production companies etc the cultural revolution will come from the one you build.

plurcast update: Smarter scheduling just landed. Year inference: "Jan 1 10:00" in December now schedules for next January, not last. No more accidental past-date scheduling. Scheduled threads: Thread parts now chain by UUID, resolved at send time. Immediate threads still work with platform IDs directly. github.com/sovereign-composable-tools/plurcast #Nostr #Mastodon #OpenSource

Your mind is a garden. Every algorithm is a seed vendor with their own agenda. attend = ad + tendere = to stretch toward When you surrender attention to feeds optimized for engagement, you let strangers decide what grows in your mental soil. They plant what spreads fastest—not what nourishes. <algorithm> selects for |capture| [you] must select for |cultivate| The algorithm knows what captures you. Only you know what cultivates you. culture

Would Nostr businesses be interested in being able to crosspost to Mastodon, or should things be kept in Nostr? #asknostr

Plurcast threading is under development but not complete, we're resolving some bugs related to scheduling. Threading while crossposting to both Nostr and Mastodon is a bit complex but worth the effort. Thanks to #Anthropic for the increased rate limits. #SCT

My focus has been on building tools that are user friendly to both humans and agents. Here's an example of an agent performing a task for me. It's scheduling book reviews, because I have a lot of content but don't want to flood the feeds. So we can watch it use the tool and then review its work. However, this example is particularly important because it gets confused and resorts to searching the source code for how my tools work. This indicates a failure in the context engineering, or the --help flags. The tool should give enough information to the agent so that its confident in its work. #Devstr

properly understanding AI. I thought this book compared well to Nick Bostrom's 'Superintelligence', with Life 3.0 being a little bit less technical. Overall I thought it was a great reminder of the future shock that AI will bring. It may not occur in my lifetime, but regardless we need to think about the coming intelligence explosion like it's on our doorstep.

📚 Book Review: Life 3.0 by Max Tegmark Finished: January 26, 2019 Professor at MIT, Max Tegmark peers into the future to give us a hint at what is to come. Filled with uncertainty and guesswork, this was an extensive warning of the barriers humanity will meet when encountering extended intelligence (or artificial intelligence). This book is very well rounded, as it becomes a necessity to discuss physics and philosophy in the approach to
