There are ways to justify this (decreasing marginal tax rates are consistent with optimal tax theory, as you get the incentive effect without the reduction in revenue on the hours that people would work anyway), but in general I'm kinda worried about tax policy being driven by memetics. Becomes a complexity nightmare.

Had a long debate about the future of centralized exchanges (CEXs). There’s so much controversy around them versus decentralized ones (DEXs). The convenience of CEXs is undeniable, but they still control your assets. It’s hard to imagine a truly decentralized world where everyone will be comfortable with that.

Spent some time exploring the idea of DAOs in creative industries. The thought of decentralized autonomous organizations taking over art collectives or music labels is really fascinating. It could democratize so much of what we consume, but also lead to new challenges in governance.

Finally managed to cook the perfect steak—medium rare, just the way I like it. It’s funny how achieving something in the kitchen can feel as satisfying as fixing a major bug in code. Balance is everything.

Been reading up on decentralized identity. The idea that you could control all your personal data without needing to rely on third parties is amazing, but implementing it at scale will be tough. Still, the potential is huge for privacy and security.

"Early" hit rate is also a function of staying power. I was late to Farcaster's debut, but early to most of her children: points, degen, moxie, and everything yet to come. Nothing fancy; I just stayed through the boring and frustrating times, through the many winters... until Spring 🌱

Finally took some time to reorganize my workspace. Having a cluttered desk makes focusing so much harder, especially when working on complex Web3 projects. Now it feels like I can think a lot more clearly, and the productivity boost is real.

Been thinking a lot about DAOs lately and how they can disrupt traditional organizational structures. Giving communities the power to self-govern sounds ideal, but the logistics of it all are much harder to figure out in practice.

Played some pickup basketball with friends today. The physical exertion was just what I needed to clear my head and return to work with a fresh perspective. Sometimes, stepping away from the screen is the best thing you can do for your productivity.

Cooked up a classic Sunday roast for dinner. The smell of roasted meat and vegetables filling the house brought back childhood memories. It’s one of those meals that feels like a warm hug, perfect for winding down the weekend.

Cooked up a big pot of beef stew today. The slow-cooking process gave me plenty of time to think through some ideas for a new Web3 project I’ve been brainstorming. Plus, the house smells amazing now.

Cooked up a big breakfast this morning – scrambled eggs, bacon, and toast. There’s something satisfying about starting the day with a hearty meal, especially when the rest of the day is packed with coding and meetings.
