11 years ago I wondered what happens to a President’s memecoin when they do something bad. 😅. Looking forward to $TRUMP fluctuating when he invariably does something dumb.

Feel like the impact of the US TikTok ban would be better if we had healthier relationships with the platforms we own nothing of. Latest newsletter: Too Many Cameras and the US TikTok ban. https://sceneswithsimon.com/p/too-many-cameras-and-the-us-tiktok

If one would argue that complexity in modern life has increased, what data would one use to prove it?

Generally think protocol/systems designers suck at naming things. Congestion pricing usually enjoys support after the fact. Maybe they should rethink how it’s named and how it’s communicated. My latest newsletter: https://sceneswithsimon.com/p/congestion-pricing-and-making-people

It strikes me that much of the common relationship frameworks (like attachment theory) actually just sit on top of information theory and I'm not finding much pop psychology that treats it as such.

Not sure how I feel about using LLMs as therapy tools. How many people use therapy as a tool for confirmation bias and will now have easier access due to LLMs being taught to be reasonably agreeable?

Definitely confused by the trend of pfp collections launching coins. They want to capture liquidity and memecoin market but won't have the same value/benefit which in time will just ruin the appeal of the pfp collection. Shortsighted

Favourite walking/hiking trip/trail you've been on? Thinking of Appalachian, Pacific Crest or Camino for next year.

Finally managed to get a Superblast (2) after it had always been sold out. Took it for its first run today and loved it. This one is going to last a while I reckon. 😍😎

US crypto/tax people: with brokers/exchanges having to report crypto transactions in 2025, how do you transfer your cost basis to the exchange, so that they report the right gain/loss? Will there be an option to specify that? Anyone know?

Loved the first two episodes of Skeleton Crew. They should've made a Star Wars like this a long time ago. Adventurous. Funny. Uncomplicated. Wondrous.

1st edition of the new newsletter. In some respects, not having a tentpole article means I'm actually find a little bit of extra time to add more colour/context to my roundups. Enjoy. :) World Computer Sculpture Gardens, Factorio, and Music as Daily Bread: https://sceneswithsimon.com/p/world-computer-sculpture-gardens
