Memes have replaced “fine art” as the genuine context based commentary on the state of the world.
Memes are a vastly superior & more thought provoking art form than a banana taped to a canvas or ...
That’s not supposed to provoke thought — just to provoke suckers to pay thousands of dollars to the “artist”
“…in the last days of the Old Empire, humanity lost its drive. Terran civilization had spread across the stars, but grew stagnant. With few ambitions, most people allowed efficient machines to perform everyday tasks for them. Gradually, humans ceased to think, or dream …or truly live.”

Unpopular opinion:
If you have money and a good business idea you should scrap the idea and put all of the money in #bitcoin. At 0.03% adoption nothing beats it.
That’s unpopular for a reason.
Depending on the timeframe it’s perfectly possible to beat Bitcoin returns.
There is no telling exactly how fast Bitcoin adoption will happen. And a business can become cashflow positive in a short time depending on what it is.
Besides there’s self fulfilment and lifestyle to consider. Work for another 10 years or more on a job that makes you unhappy while accumulating Bitcoin or follow your dreams and create value today for yourself and others? I know what I would choose.
Finally, if your idea is for a *Bitcoin business* there’s a chance you’ll beat Bitcoin returns even through full adoption.

The existential threat isn’t Artificial Intelligence
It’s Natural Stupidity
Ask ChatGPT to write something in reverse character order, or upside down and you’ll see how much “intelligence” ...
Ask ChatGPT to answer a problem that has two levels of recursion and it might work.
Ask it for something that has 10 levels of recursion and it will either produce nonsense or get stuck in an infinite loop until it exhausts the maximum number of characters
It can be anything simple like write code that writes code that writes hello world.
Once you understand the nature of the limitations, it’s funny how stupid the thing actually is.

The problem isn’t that it can’t do that, that would be a huge improvement. It actually produces utter nonsense, like it had a stroke or something.
It can’t abstract anything, only repeat patterns it has seen millions of times.
Yet you can be sure there’ll be people who’ll try to force us to obey those things bc the AI is the “expert”

This post makes me feel like Im 90.
Read about Apple shutting down Damus and it inspired me to make an account. Should be an interesting 14 days.
When did it happen? Mine is working just fine
This was the first Cash App transaction. When we were an email app (cc pay@ to send money). https://nostr.build/i/nostr.build_9509962fd1998b7d29772f34494d137150349474702bbb78aa462f59c57c8fd5.jpeg
Sorry for your loss.
I’ve had friends and relatives murdered in the past and know how devastating it is.
Not sure what is worse: thinking it was a targeted crime, or that SF is so dangerous these days even very wealthy and security-aware people get randomly murdered.
Hope police can find out what happened, and the perpetrator be brought to justice, so it gives some closure to family and friends

Free naming idea for a Signal based on nostr:
nosig
(short for nosignal)
🥁
Sounds like “no signatures”.
Which I guess is the opposite of what you want.
Or maybe not.

Kraken is getting cut off from ACH. One of the oldest, well-regulated cryptocurrency exchanges getting cut off from many consumers…. The establishment is fighting.
It wasn’t exactly targeted at Kraken. It’s a consequent of Silvergate thing.
Not sure if that makes it better or worse.
