Drumroll please ... I have created my own blog 😍 https://www.antidoteblog.com/

A couple of weeks ago, I complained about Paragraph and how it destroyed custom CSS and effectively ownership along with it. I spend quite some time to have the blog fit my taste only for it to be taken away. So I was quite devastated when my blog was pressed back to uniformity. But then I thought: Why not code it from scratch? 

So I did that with Ghost, Cursor and Vercel. I realise this is nothing special, but here are a couple of details I am proud of: (Also I am very aware that for everything there is likely a 10x better solution but this is the best my 2-neuron-brain can come up with)


@0xantidote.eth is a very smart investor - I always enjoy his long form pieces, and invariably think better about the topics he writes about

this is great, farcaster is an incredibly high signal airdrop distribution mechanism

one of the most interesting property of $degen was that it was a novel airdrop mechanism: distributed by the highest quality users who it turns out want to reward high quality users

Into the Bytecode

Here is my conversation with Jeffrey Quesnelle, cofounder of Nous Research.

We talked about the history of neural networks, modern model architectures, parallels with the human mind, and how we each think about finding meaning in this new world.

This was one of my favorite conversations in recent memory. Full podcast here: intothebytecode.com/51-jeffrey-quesnelle

I find this video hypnotic

interesting founder, and doing really good work

ok so I’m seeing that a counter argument is that the money part of crypto is not the leading argument anymore, but it’s the backend tech that will allow for a democratic internet. I’m all for that, but here I am trying to set up a Coinbase wallet and I want to blow my brains out. 

After jumping through every hoop successfully now it says “something went wrong” and to make sure I have the most updated version. I do. Shoot me. 

If the tech can’t be used by idiots like me, how is it gonna scale in a world filled with idiots?

we're very lucky see Ryan's onboarding in real time and should take notes about how this onboarding is going ✍️✍️✍️

History

same pattern with our theories for how the human mind works is based on the latest technology 

electrical age: mind as electrical signals/circuits
computer age: mind as software running in hardware 
LLMs: mind as a statistical learning machine and so on

noticing a rapid increase in the quantity, quality and diversity of buttons to clicks on farcaster

the way information is shared, consumed, and thus paid for is changing fast

I see farcaster and crypto in general as the petri dish where the next superior model emerge

the market as the algorithm's take from @jacob makes a lot of sense, and this protocol is it's best instantiation

One underrated property of permissionless platforms: you don't get steamrolled when you're small and can't fight back.

it's the small things that will make it clear to people with an audience that the best place to make a living from is on Farcaster
