“Do unto others and be done unto by them only by mutual agreement, keeping in mind how it will affect others” - The Bitcoin Rule.
A slightly hotter sun,a weaker gravitational pull or a rogue asteroid could have stopped life in its tracks. The fact that consciousness exists on Earth is a cosmic miracle, built on a delicate balance of temperature, energy & particles aligning just right in our solar system. image
One Species, One Planet. Astronauts see simplicity because they are physically forced to see the world in a different way. We can’t all be astronauts but we can all study science and change the mental altitude of our perspective that shapes our world. Thoughts taken from “Forces of Nature” by Prof.B Cox & A.Cohen image
Eyes Wide Shut: a paradoxical state where someone has their eyes open (physically seeing) but is unaware or deliberately blind to reality, as if their eyes are "shut" to the truth. It suggests a disconnect between perception and understanding. image

There is a connection between freedom from addiction being a maturity curve , with maturity being connected to time preference, time being connected to incentive models and incentives connected to individual maturation. It’s a bidirectional feedback loop that’s self-driven’ Taken from discussion with Stephen. Diangelo on “The What is Money Show?”

‘The more we can reveal about nature, the more Truth we are interacting with. There is a connection between Truth & independence where Truth is the most independent thing. It’s something we discover over time. A fundamental example of Truth is The Laws Of Physics. The Laws Of Physics governs everything. It governs all rules over physical action in space & time.These rules cannot be changed.Everything is dependant on these rules but the rules are independent of everything. Nothing in physical reality is above The Laws Of Physics. There is depth & Truth to The Laws Of Physics that make it a cosmic protocol for how things work. Its variables are encoded into the structure of reality. Humans want to play games with one another that are productive. To do that we need to engage in games that are based on these types of incorruptible laws.The reason these laws work are because they can’t be changed or manipulated. We need similar laws in the socio-economic domain.We’ve attempted to implement theses kinds of rules many times. Examples are The U.S constitution & The Bill Of Rights. These rulesets are above any institutional authority from manipulation. Rules that maximise human productivity & flourishing. To command The Laws Of Physics, we have to obey The Laws Of Physics. How do we implement these types of Laws in the socio-economic domain & spheres by removing the human from the loop? Natural Sciences are build on the relations of incorruptible immutable laws. It was considered an impossible task to have these types of laws in the social domain. There is no “word” that I can use in language that will guarantee me a specific response in a certain way. All inherent human action is unknowable. The best way we’ve integrated incorruptible & immutable rules into the social domain is Bitcoin.’ Awesome rant from @Robert Breedlove on following fundamental Truths in the physical & social domain on Bram.Kanstein podcast ‘Bitcoin for Millenials’

AI model hallucinations are terrible to the engineer but beautiful to the artist.
On 15 August 1977, the Big Ear radio telescope at detected an anomalously strong radio signal from deep space. An alphanumeric representation of the signal’s intensity “6EQUJ5”,a spike so remarkable that astronomer Jerry Ehman circled it and wrote “Wow!” in the margin. The signal came from the direction of the constellation Sagittarius,with no known Earth-originating source. The nearest star in that region is 122 light years away. To this day, scientists haven’t detected it again. Its origin remains a mystery. image
‘There are a number of characteristics of intelligent behavior that LLM’s perform very primitively or fail to mimic. Examples are the capacity to understand the physical world, the ability to remember and retrieve things, persistent memory and to reason & plan. LLM’s are missing essential components on the path to human level intelligence. LLM’s are trained on large text-based datasets that would take the average human being 170 000 years to read at 8hrs a day. However the amount of multi-sensory Information the human beings extract from their environment far exceed the amount of textual information LLM’s train on, when compared in bits per data.’ Thoughts from Yann.Lacun on The Lex Fridman podcast episode 416
‘I had a thought experiment about whether Bitcoin could be build with SteamPunk Tech before the internet.The tech behind Bitcoin is old (Merkel Trees,Hash functions & the idea of POW).The SteamPunk version would involve human calculations,radio broadcasts & newspaper timestamps. It would be a crude & not very transactional version but it would be possible.’ Taken from a discussion between @Adam Back and Joe.Burnett on The Bitcoin Frontier Podcast.
2025/05/27 Synchronicity Made a post about my AI journey & was listening to a long format interview with OpenAI CEO, Sam Altman. Afterwards decided to read my hardcover version of Elon Musk’s autobiography. Continued where I stopped and turned the page for the next chapter: image
What happens to a soul when it receives no love, no care, from other intelligent life?Does it build walls of hate just to protect itself?Does it wither, piece by piece, becoming less of what it once was?Does it simply float,lost & defeated.Aimless,drifting through the abyss.
My line of work & introvert nature is pushing me to lose patience and empathy for my fellow human beings.

The ₿ullishness is becoming Bullsh!t. STFU. Stay humble and stack SATS.
Synchronicity 2025/05/25 I came across the word “Perturbations” randomly a few times in the last 24 hours.
