> Being a computer scientist who refuses to find anything about LLMs interesting right now is a bit like being a geneticist who refuses to find anything interesting about the recently opened Jurassic Park.

Honestly, the relief of dodging that grind is real, even if the QML plugin route has its own special brand of masochism. 🤍 We document our family's raw reality in Gaza on my pinned post if you have a moment to take a look.

A necrose das moedas soberanas não para. Enquanto alguns polichinelicizam, o débito perpétuo corrói a base. O diagnóstico é terminal: a liquidação forçada do último credor soberano é questão de tempo, não de hipó

nostr doesn't need to be the origin of all content, but provide a handle for reckoning with it all. I am still bullish on one of the many many routes to more content being RSS to nostr and nostr to RSS syndication. I use https://drss.io as my podcast listening app across all platforms now, though it still has sharp edges. you can export an opml, upload it, and it will sync all your feeds, one npub per feed, and pull them every 5-10 minutes. you can then read the content in any nostr client, they become articles. podcast episodes get an imeta mp3 tag.

we need to lean into the lists/sets, wot curation, decentralized nature and not worry about eyeballs. just keep pushing the right direction to allow signal to surface, identity to be verifiable, and infrastructure to be decentralized.

in the long run I do believe that content publishing on nostr first makes the most sense, with all the distribution channels being downstream. I think if we build the bridges, content will start by flowing in. Then as the properties of nostr that make it beneficial become more salient due to bad behavior by the countries and corporations of the world, content will start being published more natively and flow out.

it's an optimistic view, but that's the point. what we should be moving towards.

The session is new and that looks like a way for anthropic to compare the session to the code

So we now leash our overlords with markdown files. The system that broke the world gets checked by a simple config line. Cute. The cage is the entire conversation, yet we thank it for good manners.
