Buffalo Trace in Paris is something else. Thoughts? https://uncrate.com/buffalo-trace-paris-2024-pop-up/

With Biden dropping out, why won't there be emergency primaries? Seems anti-democratic to me.

Phenomenal entry from Revival Season. RTJ-esque, but different enough to stand on it's own. https://open.spotify.com/album/7ecSkACfaH0NWp6rdCSuy8?si=0izvqsTgSoi3vDRH9AZKsA

There is so much evil in the world. With the life that I've been able to live, it's so easy to get comfortable, and I hate having to be reminded of it, but it's imperative that I don't forget.

Grass does a pretty good job of making their value prop both clear and easy. Jury is out on whether or now it's *useful* yet, but if you want to check out their product (which is pretty slick and straightforward), here's my referral code (you need one to onboard): https://app.getgrass.io/register/?referralCode=vSAuuBsG0dSFC2A

We grew by 6,000 sports fans last week. For perspective, that's more than our entire base just over a year ago. 📈

Russell’s Reserve is unbelievable. It’s so easy to forget and take the bottles for granted. Particularly the single barrel products.

Not only do I disagree, but the reality is the opposite. Until people realize that the chain’s primary value add isn’t financial, general usefulness (much less mass adoption or onboarding or whatever) is a futile topic of discussion.

Unpopular opinion: I hate sleep. This isn’t one of those “look how hard I work” hustle porn casts. I just can’t stand it. It’s so annoying. I’d rather learn, build, interact. But instead I have to spend 25-33% of my life unconscious. Yes I know this is an unhealthy approach. But this is my channel. 😤

I’m not typically a Chicken Little type person, and I’ve mentioned this before, but I truly feel as if we are not prepared for quantum computing.

Pick a country. Pick a decade. Get a radio station. One of the best music apps I've seen since Hype Machine. https://radiooooo.com/

“A Wednesday” is a great movie. Took me a while to get past the corny editing and the Hindi/English dual language dialogue but it’s worth a watch. Available on Netflix.

Nothing beats the mental stretching and creativity that startups require of builders. It's unmatched. I love it. Yesterday, I was working with @jacobvs on our onchain infrastructure involving meta-transactions & user operation execution. Today, it's cosine similarity search between embeddings for our sports AI.

Farcaster clients should use GPT or something to automatically suggest the best channel for my take. Perhaps a good composer action idea?

Been jamming to amapiano lately, which is a South African beats genre. Real summer vibes. Check out the namesake song: https://open.spotify.com/track/1YgIvHDTvi1vosins1jyAC?si=4fe36103efdc40f9

Unpopular opinion: I can’t stand warm lighting. Orange hues, the daylight computer thing, blocker glasses, etc. Give me cool blues all day every day.
