   I think the author, Neozeed, is the person back in the day when I asked them to teach me how to "hack", they instead taught me what telnet was and that there was a larger network beyond AOL. It lead me to what I am today. Thanks.

   I went to school for both chemistry and electrical engineering. I've since acquired the habit of using a lab notebook with everything I do. It's an amazingly useful utility both for recall but also record keeping. Make it a habit

   Techendo predicted the rise of Elon Musk on an old episode way back in the day. Now I'm quite honestly tired of hearing about the hype. The fatigue is real.

   Agh, I wish I could list off all the channels I was in without outing myself lol. Those were sick times. :) Best group of hackers I've ever met. Curious how many people still keep up with their old groups? Did any of you become lifelon

    Things like this that worry me and make me diametrically opposed to any of the big company employees holding seats of authority at any body residing over any spec or working groups as well. They'll never have the user's interest a

    This cartoon was my jam. Growing up on comics as a kid with idols like Tony Stark, etc and all the sci-fi future stuff, just made me want to become an engineer/scientist.

    Palo Alto is one of the few places it's actually legal to sleep in a vehicle. El Camino is a good (but loud) spot to sleep at where you won't get hassled by cops.

    Super appreciated. Are you working in the space?

    I agree. We originally wanted to build an appliance for it, but hardware is hard. So we abstracted out what we could and while we use "people" contributing data, the reality is that any agent (IoT, etc) on the network can particip

    I'm fascinated by what's going to happen in the post (monopolized) data economy. When data acquisition can happen autonomously, beyond HITL. Taking that data and building, growing, and strengthening intelligence could scale up som

    I tried this around SF Bay Area. Unfortunately SF isn't as van-friendly as I would have liked, and the high crime rate and high rate of break-ins left me less than desiring to stay in SF. Had a friend successfully camp out in East Bay,

    We'd be down for someone to come out and chat about this at our next crypto builders meet-up at Noisebridge in SF on the 11th.[0] Scaling is a huge point of interest when considering building on top of BTC or ETH. [0] https:/&#x2

    I worked with the Assembly team that basically did this, without the complications of smart contracts/etc involved. This is a hard problem for a number of reasons.
