On the incremental path to the future, a major trend will be that humans step up a level, into management. Here I start to lay out a vision for human agency in the AI future: https://newsletter.rootsofprogress.org/p/the-future-of-humanity-is-in-management

Was in Mojave today for the first Boom supersonic flight test! Amazing accomplishment, after over a decade of work. Congrats to the entire team!

I see. Didn’t know they added it back at some point. Thanks for mentioning!

https://warpcast.com/s5eeo/0x327871ab Was the reason why Damus had to disable zapping on iOS not the same thing?

I think @dwr.eth has a point. I witnessed the Damus Nostr client disabling its tipping / zapping feature because of App Store rules a while back. https://www.theblock.co/post/234392/apple-damus-app-removal-warning .

I believe @phil would fit the bill. He also organized AMAs with interesting people outside of crypto like book authors or Robin Hanson and thereby onboarded them on FC as far as I understand.

Oh yes💯 Consistent improvements in price-performance of components and the tooling really add up over time.

Someone built a small VTOL (vertical takeoff and landing) aircraft from scratch with no experience and shared how he designed and built it: https://www.tsungxu.com/p/first-vtol-design-build-and-flight Very cool.

You love to see it: a foundation model for tasks related to pathogen detection and pandemic monitoring. - Paper: https://metagene.ai/metagene-1-paper.pdf - Huggingface: https://huggingface.co/metagene-ai It’s trained on DNA and RNA strands from human wastewater, including samples from bacteria, viruses and other organisms. Weights are open source.

Very cool that it apparently runs everything locally.

There’s a podcast about materials science called “Materialism” and the episodes usually have a lot of interesting tidbits. They sometimes use technical terms without explaining them, so some prior exposure to MS (e.g. through engineering) helps but I think most of the content is very approachable and interesting nonetheless. Here are two episodes I liked: - Stories from a materials salesman: https://open.spotify.com/episode/3aKOMMdAHAlSNiigOvSlws?si=ATMjytJHQg2YILHvuEA0Dg - You don’t know anything about steel: https://open.spotify.com/episode/2myA5oLPbB5pdGaEHP20zr?si=12w2Bey1RKOzBu4s684B1w&t=997 .

A big problem on BlueSky to me is also the lack of diversity when it comes to content, opinions and political orientation. But it’s a functional, sort-of-decentralized social network with a lot of users and they deserve a lot of credit for that. https://warpcast.com/s5eeo/0x2a698071

Spotify Premium subscription comes with some audiobooks included so if you have a subscription it's a good idea to check if a book you want to read/listen to is already included before you buy it or get it on Audible.

Finetuning can make sense here if you want the LLM to have your writing style or tone. But if you mostly just want to retrieve info /ideas from all your writing, RAG is probably the way to go. If you do want to use fine-tuning and don’t mind closed-source models, it is supported by OpenAI, Anthropic etc. in a way that is probably most straightforward: https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/machine-learning/fine-tune-anthropics-claude-3-haiku-in-amazon-bedrock-to-boost-model-accuracy-and-quality/ https://platform.openai.com/docs/guides/fine-tuning Haven’t done it myself yet so I’m not sure how long it would take to set up from scratch.

Idk anything about this MIRA token but the ease of fundraising for public goods (esp. research and IP) on crypto infra is perhaps still an underappreciated use case of crypto. https://x.com/blader/status/1872123205483417780

Great piece that explains why you should read history. Not to "learn from the past's mistakes" as some tedious people think, but to correct this little quirk of the brain that tends towards doomsdaying. When you read history, you realize, 1) some things are eternal and it’s better to come to terms with them than fret needlessly, 2) almost nothing is eternal, even and especially what was once thought eternal, and that progress is possible, solutions can be found, and we can make things better, and 3) everyone always thinks the world is ending, and they have always been wrong (so far). https://substack.com/home/post/p-153316573
