The turnstile mechanism guarantees either closure on exploitation, or impact minimization

Oh, you want to argue with me? Too late, I’ve already anticipated all your counter arguments and presented them as a dialogue tree. It’s available as an interactive visualization on my website.

people are always like “why are you friends with everyone?” and the answer is that we all read each other’s diaries

@blknoiz06 5 figure stimmy check for the trenches

there is no solana without that jito airdrop

Rumor is @jalenbrunson1 and @NYCMayor will be attending the next SoStuy meetup

@moonsandhues there is a better twitter bar called spring

why is spring lounge one of the twitter bars because like it’s very mid

@BostonMassUSA i would collect $200M

If someone offered you $1 million to walk from your home to Dunkin and back in 20 minutes could you do it?

“Mr President, I have a plan to make you $500M” What is it? “It involves cryptocurrency” Okay, I’m interested. What do my trusted lawyers say? “They say you’ll get away with it” What do you need from me? “A 30 second video of you reading this script” We have a deal

@coldhealing American romance be like “this burger reminds him of me”

@AlexanderLong I still pay Moonshot even though the weights are available

I would like to make a few brief points; - Opensource ai is not the same thing as opensource software. The models cost tens to hundreds of millions to make. This is not gonna be a volunteer effort from people doing stuff after work for free. - the second you release a weight set, you lose any ability to make money serving your own model and recoup the training cost. This very simple property means open-weights is unsustainable. - the things you ACTUALLY want from opensource ai is: transparent behaviour, dispersed ownership and control, a guarantee of access, the ability to build on it/modify it, and privacy. protocol learning gets you all 4 and is the only alternative to closed models that makes any kind of sense. By protocol learning I mean a very specific, novel thing; collaborative training and development of the models without anyone ever being able to see the complete weight set.

@hhawk It’s > 3 miles?

@colludingnode It's not possible to run through the Louvre in 15 minutes, nor even possible to sprint through.

I speedrun museums. It would take me 15 minutes tops to get through the Louvre, fully appreciating every piece of art, getting as much out of each work as I possibly could.

@distractedm1nd ur pfp 😥

pouring a Club Mate with all the gmbH homies this week

thanks for the great questions and discussions

@Vladfdp bruhhh

@colludingnode What’s the sample rate of the human eye?

@Vladfdp remove your fear about being seen as a larper. what's the minimum time to derive max joy?

@colludingnode Even Usain Bolt couldn’t go through the louvre that fast brother But yes I agree every time I go to the museum I sit there and wonder what’s the minimum amount of time I need to stare at a painting to not be seen as a larper

However, if we look back at early bitcoin, and consider the people involved at that time as the dev and marketing teams of the bitcoin startup, then we can say that those people created value and ended up capturing it too. And i think that's because they did not think of the token as a pure value capture mechanism, and instead pursued the networks value creation goal to the hilt. And this is the problem at the heart of crypto today. We don't need more "onchain businesses with real revenue". That's retarded. We have web2 and the stock exchange for that. Crypto needs more resilient networks that create value, and tokens that appreciate as a natural consequence of that value creation.

@deepitreal 💯 it's true that there were people in early bitcoin who played similar roles as in a startup, but the difference is important.

I don’t believe in entrepreneurship as a suitable engine to drive the cryptocurrency movement. There is one (1) startup that hears my critique and responds with plausible counter arguments. I am balls long on them

@ViktorBunin i will do a timed Met speedrun when i return to the promised land

@colludingnode To be fair the Louvre is relatively small. Let's see you tackle the Met in NYC

are there any peptides for developing object permanence?

@Scobleizer skill issue if it takes you more than a couple seconds to derive max joy from a work of art

@colludingnode Not to mention, I've been to the Louvre I think five times. There's no way you can see it in 15 minutes. That fucking thing is huge.

@colludingnode The French cultural minister gave me a tour of the Louvre, and I learned a lot more than you would.
