I love anti-Ai takes. What are some of your best ones? 😆

One thing you need to understand more than ANYTHING else if you want this idea to work:

YOU NEED ONE SUSTAINABLE NETWORK.

Do not try to get more driers or adoption everywhere at once. Do ONE city and try to get a threshold where there are enough available drivers and users to actually be sustainable by itself. Then branch out. This will take a very direct and concerted effort though.

I would read The Cold Start Problem by Andrew Chen if you want a view of the network effects this is up against. It would be amazing to see something like this succeed, but I think the hard part isn’t building the app, imo.

Dude… calm down it’s just funny.

I think looking back will reveal the time we are living through to be a long political and economic depression that began around 2010.

I need to push the fix for the hypercores bloating. There’s a part of the cleanup after delivery that gets hung up sometimes and uses up extra space that it doesn’t need to. I have been meaning to get that fixed but we’ve been working on a refactor. Keep an eye out and update when the new versions drop. Right now this is still super alpha so lots will change.

This is because they *are* using a fish eye lens. It will appear concave and curve the opposite way if your straight line is below the halfway mark of the lens.

I can take a wide lens and make any curved object or straight line appear convex or concave or straight depending on where I place the lens in relation.

This doesn’t really give us anything of value to say one way or the other. They are obviously using a wide lens if you just look at the close up objects and try to draw straight lines.

Why would the sun be static under one assumption and then not under the other? The question is a simple application either model: is the sun moving across the sky or not? It wouldn’t support either model to take video and have it appear stationary. But obviously if you record for long enough it will move… so how does this apply in any way?

My proof: take a video of a blade of grass. Is it growing or stationary? Now do it over a few weeks. What’s the difference?

Actually I realize I assumed it was vibe coded, but regardless it CAN be vibe coded because I’ve done it 😂

This is exactly why we are going to win. 🔥🔥

Things like Nostr, Bitcoin and Lightning SDKs, Peardrive core, etc are going to make it even easier to do secure authentication, simple monetary integrations, and simple sovereign hosting or private connections.

This was VIBE CODED people! Even though I’ve not shared our many iterations, I’ve had this exact experience. Getting a basic tool for P2P sharing working in a few hours and then just fixing quirks and UI stuff for a few days to make it feel cleaner.

Things like the Pear stack, and Iroh, and Holesail (fyi @nprofile1q... drop Tailscale and just use Holesail here, much simpler UX) are huge leaps forward in the ability to self host these things.

My hope as well is that Peardrive core makes this so utterly simple to build with that amateur coders could use it in a way that feels no different than simple web development. And what you can do when you unleash people to create anything they can imagine is just wild.

We are going to win, but we will be waiting for it to happen until everyone reading this post realizes that YOU CAN JUST BUILD THINGS!

Just a tip, if “[something] flavor” is one of the ingredients, you’re probably eating fake food.
