Excalidraw has an amazing plugin that you can use as a canvas for idea generation, much in the same way that you might use Figma or @accountless.eth uses Farcaster.

A medium post from 2021 that got turned into a book which I highly recommend reading: Bitcoin Is Venice: Rhapsody on a Theme of Nakamoto.

What do you guys think of the simulation hypothesis?

Good question. China isn't at the public forefront of large language model development, yet tons of research is being done at Tencent and Alibaba with state-of-the-art publications. DeepSeek is probably equivalent to GPT-3.5. I wonder how far ahead they are in terms of supply-chain management and process automation.

Worth noting: FT reports that at least 17 Chinese city governments are aiding startups with compute vouchers worth up to $280,000. The national government is looking at subsidizing domestic chips and establishing state-run data centers.

As far as guided meditations go, I like wakingup.com by Sam Harris a lot, but I'm pretty ignorant about the difference between bad, good and great meditation. What are some of your favourite sources?

Space

By the time the two galaxies collide, the surface of the Earth will have already become far too hot for liquid water to exist, ending all terrestrial life; that is currently estimated to occur in about 0.5 to 1.5 billion years.

I've honestly struggled to keep useful one-liners in my terminal over time, and where I typically don't want to preserve my shell history (much less store it on a database) Warp is on to something that I think I can get used to.

Hey India,

How are you guys working around the need for government approval before deploying language models? If you're already pre-training, fine-tuning or building products using generative AI models how big of an issue is this for your businesses?

Degen

Sadly in crypto many folks make statements that aren’t based on truth. Don’t compare yourself to people who flex their PnL screenshots and appear oh so well-off. Also, realize that money is certainly only one part of wealth. Most less rich people I know are much happier than the very rich. Enjoy your ride, degen.

Got Arch installed and working on an old laptop.

Definitely a challenge: the official instructions left me completely lost re how to install grub. But GPT handholding helped, and I'm impressed and found the experience surprisingly educational!
