I fully expect our next cycle to be one of de-platforming, with this quote in support. Decentralized technology is rife with fraud and noise, but ENS is an exemplary preview of a Web3 future. Like SSO without a middleman. It's a far su

We’re in a hyperinflationary period. Loans are extremely inexpensive, cash is cheap. I suspect the majority of influx in crypto is due to an abundance of fiat. With that said, there’s quite a lot going for Ethereum and defi as a sector. Maj

Feynman was the first person who made physics relatable for me. In contrast, my father graduated as a mechanical engineer, who typically described mathematics as a series of expletives. Feynman is lovingly referred to as "the great exp

While I certainly agree that tech has been able to 'dominate,' your use as an example of a 'stable approach' with 'as few regulations as possible' that 'removes such absolute power from a few unelected ind

I think you'll find this presentation by Emily Shea on voice driven development to be intriguing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YKuRkGkf5HU aside, novel HIDs are IMO a huge market gap that I'd really like to inv

We feel similar. Real progress isn't glamorous, and for years there's been unnecessary hype around the buzzwords. SEO and attention economies have cultivated these behavioral trends because it's profitable. My first question

I appreciate your thoughts and, perhaps to your surprise, entirely agree. I'm calm about it now because I've had years to reflect and learn. I began in 2013 buying small sums of bitcoin around ~$50. I amassed ~$500k by 2017, the m

Sure, thanks for asking. My reasoning follows a few paths in parallel: * Distributed data storage like IPFS, built on open source software, should reduce (not eliminate) the number of vulnerabilities to large datasets. Code can be openly

What a great read. I really enjoyed the author's writing style and candor. As someone who lost 8 figures in crypto in 2017 - and someone who is still a huge advocate for defi in general - I can deeply empathize with the narrative. This

I'd like to take a moment to appreciate how utterly monumental it is to have free, instant access to such human ingenuity. This is now first on my reading list. I'm working on a HPC company where everyone is an order or two of mag

Seems like Patreon is their most successful comparable model. Patreon offers tiers of 7.9%, 10.9%, and 14.9%, while Hyper offers 5% pay-as-you-go, or a flat $299 monthly. So if you're, let's say, a Twitch streamer with 5,000 subs

I thoroughly appreciate when an author uses an extensive variety of sources that are particularly relevant to the topic. I wonder how long this took to write.

A long conversation. Tell a great story, or find someone to listen to. Talk to random people about random things for no particular reason. The world is a lot more curious when you ask more questions.
