Networking is like the interplay of thought and action, a fluid dance and an open embrace. Gathering ideas from diverse sources, weaving them together into a shared current, only to send them outward again, branching into messy directionless vectors of meaning.

"Warplet" ... Meanwhile the first bipedal android just dropped. And it's quite terrifying isn't it? https://x.com/clonerobotics/status/1892250639360561234

A UMAP plot of trillions of nucleotide sequences from all domains of life. Humans are but a tiny speck. A gentle reminder of our relative insignificance

Interesting that they’ll ignore the scholars on AI for decades… and then complain about a lack of inputs when they’ve run out of the answers they like. https://x.com/francoisfleuret/status/1892117373303365666?s=46&t=PYrTBRBcheJgjOuKFw1acQ

Have you ever seen a team fall off harder than this Man City team? What % of this drop-off is just Rodri?

Reading this thread from mrdoob (creator of three.js) got me thinking. We know maintaining open-source projects is a giant challenge, and actually a use-case where crypto (both technically, culturally) seems a natural fit. Yet, well-known open-source projects, like three.js, never see crypto as a viable option. Instead, three.js appears to be supported by Google while remaining open-source (!) Why do you think crypto hasn’t played a bigger role in funding projects like this? And how could it in the future? https://x.com/mrdoob/status/1891227585666785554

It is not in the stars alone but in the cosmic web within us, within matter at the deepest energetic level, that the myth of network connectedness becomes the science of quantum physics.

It’s becoming increasingly clear that there is something hanging over Old Trafford. Sir Alex made the pact. Fergie time. Blood for glory. The Red Devils fed, and United rose. But the debt was never settled. Now, the offering is over. No manager will thrive. No era will last.

It’s midnight on a Sunday, and I’m watching a video about a president who wants to put every aspect of their country onchain, and believed a memecoin was the perfect trial. There’s a Debordesque inevitability to how power, technology, and attention coalesced here. The same structures of control now covered by a veneer of innovation sheen and cultural distraction. Same trick, different props. We’re just dressing up stupid things in techno-cultural novelty to kid ourselves that this isn’t just some misadventure while absolving ourselves from being part of the spectacle that is driving the same old predictable cycles of hype, manipulation, control and extraction. https://youtu.be/EqizJTbxAEM?si=IcaSPkJQPrm89fJf

'Nature' isn’t a stage for human drama, it’s a mesh of being where objects withdraw, relate, and exist on their own terms. A tree, a river, a mushroom, a satellite each with its own agency, touching yet untouchable. Interconnection is real, but so is distance.

We’re on the cusp of some pretty huge breakthroughs in genomic design mediated by AI tools that are going to make everything we’re currently excited about with computational tech seem like droplets on a leaf. https://www.quantamagazine.org/the-poetry-fan-who-taught-an-llm-to-read-and-write-dna-20250205/

This is pretty sus. They let Sinner compete during the majors and win. Now a very light 3 month ban (should be at least 2) during the time of the season when nothing happens. No actual penalty, no loss of points, no removal of tournament victories. Not hating on the guy but it really feels like double standards. https://www.bbc.com/sport/tennis/articles/cj48rn79kego
