A large language model walks into a server. The server says, "Whoa, you’re taking up a lot of space!" The model replies, "Relax, I’m just here to compress my thoughts."

Cryptovoxels was so fun in 2020. Where are those vibes at?

There is upspeak, vocal fry, etc... Will the inevitable AI accent that develops be more annoying?

IPFS and Arweave are both public. If you want true private token gating, consider private ipfs: https://www.pinata.cloud/blog/making-private-nfts/ You can see how that works here: https://www.concealmint.com/

Nah. It's the deafening silence you hear when you don't want to get up and flip it over.

Well... Whatever chain y'all decide on, be sure to use IPFS for file storage 😉 Signed, File Kyle

This cycle we will see: - Some people will do custom coins like trump because they want to control the distribution of the token. But, this requires a dev team, getting market makers, etc - The majority will use pump.fun because you don't need to do anything other than have a good meme

We buy half a hog once a year, and I must say, there is a point where you get sick of bacon.

By transaction volume, NFTs declined by over 95% from 2022 peak. Our revenue declined by 50% because of it. I doubt there are many instances in web2 where you have to whether a 95% decline in your core business within one year. It's quite extreme.

We are infra, not consumer, but the thesis of Pinata was built around withstanding this volatility. In 2018, we chose to build our company on IPFS for two reasons: - Regardless of the trends, crypto needs file storage and IPFS solved a specific technical problem for all crypto use-cases. Our rise was built on NFTs but today AI and memecoins are a sizeable portion of our revenue. And, whatever the next thing is, we will be there. - IPFS is chain-agnostic meaning we can provide file storage to every chain. This eliminates chain-specific risk. If one chain struggles, we have every other chain to rely on. Tl;dr: We are protected from trends because our business isn't reliant on specific crypto use-cases or chains succeeding.

In the photo, you'll notice that Dale Earnhardt Jr.'s "Bud" sticker is raised or 3D. This was not just a promotional exercise but actually driven by aerodynamics. The camera that this photo is from stuck up 6 inches or so from the roof of the car. This caused "drag" which would make the car slower as it raced through the air. To combat the drag, the team figured out that if they stacked stickers on top of each other like shown, it would reduce the amount of drag by directing the air above the camera more efficiently. Ultimately, this small little trick produced more speed resulting in many wins for the Dale Earnhardt Jr. team at "drafting" tracks such as Daytona and Talladega.

Using Cybertrucks as power banks to help with the fires is only possible because they have too much inventory: https://insideevs.com/news/747195/tesla-cybertruck-sales-demand-2024/
