One of my favorite Cypherpunk quotes was written by Duncan Frissell in 1994: "Software has a wonderful property, the Cypherpunks are fond of saying: Once it's created, it can never be destroyed. It can be copied infinitely, from computer to computer, spreading like a secret. Come what may, unbreakable Cypherpunk code, and Cypherpunk networks, will be out there forever, they hope."

Open source software has historically only gotten 5% of venture funding, but has created over $2,000 of value for every $1 invested!!! Insane ROI. Don’t sleep on open source. https://www.hbs.edu/ris/Publication%20Files/24-038_51f8444f-502c-4139-8bf2-56eb4b65c58a.pdf#page=31.22

Did you know that the NSA allegedly installed a backdoor into banking software in the 1980s that allowed it to passively monitor fund flows on SWIFT?? They did this through stolen software which was then also sold to drug traffickers, allowing said traffickers to launder drug money directly through the banking system

I genuinely dont understand why Google launched Gemini as a separately branded product line. Google Meet, Google Mail, why not Google AI? Or just keep it branded as their core product Google, which was always called a search engine but was really a discovery engine so tomato tomatoh https://youtu.be/Bqn3SNyjsSE
