Thanks Mike. Yep I like Clerky for the simple formation part. Need a lawyer to represent the company to make proper token warrants.

It’s 10 years old from when I was running a pre-seed fund and I haven’t revamped it all yet https://bmannconsulting.com/notes/startup/

Recommendation for US based lawyer for company formation and first raise of SAFE + token warrants? Literally for a friend 😀 - I mostly know Canadian lawyers.

It’s an all volunteer run conf where we’re budgeting to pay speakers an honorarium, record good video, and feed people lunch for two days, so yeah 119EU is low cost. DM if you have difficulty paying and would like to attend.

Entropy is a generative audiovisual artwork exploring themes of permanence and ownership. Every time the NFT is transferred, the onchain code model imposes a programmed process of repeated degradation in a manner similar to analog media. Released in 2021. A momento mori for the digital age. https://deafbeef.com/series/3

I asked for this at least once. The Fedica team implemented my spec for this for all the other networks ;) I’ll happily work with a dev to explain how this should work.

Thanks @paradigm for hosting. Good to see a few familiar faces like @gakonst @anett briefly. Talked about proto apps a bit, but mostly I just dropped in right at end of day to check it out and say hi. And drink a nice cortado.

Me and @pedrouid.eth walking into the very first wallet Unconf in Toronto in 2018 ranting about mobile. I was handing out DOGECOIN at the time because it had a mobile wallet and fast confirmation. Met TrustWallet there, OG mobile first wallet. STILL way too many teams that live on desktop browser extension only.

I’m building /rolodexsocial, a community directory with private member search across member profiles. Before leaving for my co-founders wedding (which was yesterday) (talk about timing to enter the arena) we shipped global search across communities from a single users perspective this week. cc: @sinisterlight

Yep. It’s an Android device so I could install Termux into it or something similar.

I got my @daylightcomputer a couple of days ago and posted some quick unboxing pics. https://bmannconsulting.com/blog/2024/07/09/daylight-computer-unboxing/ I bought it 2 years ago when the company even had a different name. I’m looking forward to exploring it more.

PSA: Blockchains are *NOT* decentralized, immutable, permanent, transparent, verifiable, resilient, democratic or fair, or other misused buzzwords. Sure, they can be a couple of those things depending on the blockchain, but not a fundamental property of blockchains, even if they are these are much better accomplished by non-blockchain P2P/cryptographic systems. This is not "FUD", but to better leverage blockchains we must understand & be educated about its unique properties. Why do you think we get racist ponzis instead of useful apps? I have covered these topics at length over dozens of blog posts. The *only* unique property of blockchains is strict global consensus - a strictly ordered, objective set of txs in real-ish time. While very limited, this property is extremely valuable for extralegal financial transactions. You probably think I'm a blithering idiot, fair, but there's at least one other person who will tell you something similar: https://x.com/VitalikButerin/status/1743040410212053350/photo/1

The pgsync tool helps with this. But say more what you’re trying to do? https://github.com/ankane/pgsync

Been thinking about this across multiple ecosystems beyond mobile. Apps is itself a broad category - think also WordPress plugins, Browser extensions, Frames And: app stores, distribution, discovery, curation, payment @jbrukh https://x.com/jbrukh/status/1803252699455955123

Perhaps a longing for reconnection as well - the cultural aspect is very deeply present in our connections in this space (I’m speaking based on own experience here and definitely not easy to generalise) plus the current societal conditions are far from ideal so given the built in remoteness, the culture and the coop vibes that many embrace, it feels like a natural progression.

I think it’s a very young industry where remote is accepted. Getting paid across countries is built into the platform. Density of people willing to try new things. I also think “running things together” is a core concept which translates well to shared structures like pop-up communities. @simonapop got some speculation to add?
