Just finished the most detailed cognitive test battery anyone has ever taken for a personal n=1 (in all likelihood)
IQ, memory, working memory, attention, too many things to name
It took two days
With enough breaks to avoid fatigue
So why the hell am I doing this?
Baseline
When I begin the year without screens, which starts in April, things may change fast & change significantly
- Perhaps my memory will get a lot better
- Perhaps my reaction time will improve
- Perhaps my executive function will get a lot better (seems likely, I’m a bit impaired)
That last one could be particularly relevant if, like me, you have attention issues like ADHD
*Whatever* happens, we’ll have so many data points that we’ll pick up just about any shift & get a better idea of how our screens may be affecting us
All of that will be published on the live dashboard as it becomes available. yearunplugged.com/biomarkers

BTC has been flat to down for 90 days. These are the moments to accumulate.
You can do it with straight buys,
or through on-chain yield products.

If you have ADHD + OpenClaw this is mandatory
Finally took the plunge with my 🦞 to setup telegram topics.
In a few days I'll know if it's making things worse or better.
The idea is you can keep sessions cleaner by focusing your conversations in 1 context window/1 session.

imagine quitting your job thinking you gonna ride off into sunset purely off of posting pure unadulterated slop

Thats sucks that the easy X money gravy train stopped for you, but honestly a lot of your post are spammy engagement farming automated posts and repetitive. Need genuine original content and widen audience horizon. Thats why you got flagged by their system to try to fix the low quality content of people just farming for engagement money. Should be easy for you to get remonetized after time as you got followers already. I got 2012 account and been around 733 followers for years and get low engagement. So I consider you lucky.

I laugh when someone says Bitcoin is dead. 🤣
Oh, people will use your rails for stablecoins?
Commodity.
And are coming to BTC rails anyway.
What other asset is spent in the real world and digitally today besides BTC?
Nothing.
The play is obvious. You just have to not be fooled by motion = progress.
Bitcoin is money.

One key reason to read the @bitcoin_yield newsletter.
No where else will you find nuance like this on ways to earn BTC on your BTC.

Note: We have removed Acre for the time being while we review the on-chain data to confirm the current strategy is returning close to the advertised 11% from our tracked API endpoint. Also, YieldBasis continues to not be on the list as all pools continue to be at capacity. They are averaging 2-3x higher yield in the paid in altcoins category compared to Starknet.

@marshallmixing @Stacks Damn 3 years already! Time flies.
Sorry to hear brother

Today is my last day at Stacks Labs.
After more than 3 years working in @Stacks at Trust Machines (Leather + Granite) and Stacks Labs, I found out this morning that my position, along with 14 others, is being impacted.
Here's what's not changing:
1. My connection with all the community members that I have crossed paths with. I've made so many friends in the Bitcoin, Ordinals, and Stacks communities over the years.
People say it all the time, but the community in Stacks is absolute top tier. Everyone is mission-driven and truly aligns with Bitcoin's principles. I hope they never lose that and never stop advocating for what's right. It's been a privilege to represent the Stacks community in my role.
2. My focus on Bitcoin. In my 5+ years working in crypto, every position I've held has been a stepping stone toward a role that aligns closer with Bitcoin's fundamentals. I'm looking forward to continuing that trajectory in my next role. If you have a connection, my DMs are open.
3. Good For Bitcoin will continue. I'm excited to continue co-hosting the show alongside Kate. GFB has been a fantastic way for the both of us to keep a pulse on what's going on in the industry. Tomorrow's show will be a good one.

@BrennerSpear I don’t have a hot take on where models might be in a year.
But an Opus level local model on consumer grade hardware in a year is a GUARANTEE.
English
I'll call my shot more specifically:
Q1 2027
an open source model
running on 32gb of memory
will do 100 tok/s
and match Opus 4.6 on most benchmarks

"when does a $1,000 box handle 95% of a knowledge worker's daily needs?" Early 2027 seems pretty optimistic to me, but possible unit-of-intelligence.brennerspear.com

I didn't say you were scared of ivermectin. And I haven't tweeted you a half a dozen times about this. This is only the second time I have mentioned it over the past year. And I can't know what other have said or what you've already explored. I'm frankly surprised at the vehemence of your response, when you could have said, "yeah, thanks for your concern; I've looked at that and I'm happy with my current choices." I feel like I'm the undeserved recipient of a lot of pent up anger about all this. I feel like I've made the point I wanted to in offering alternatives, and now I'll choose to disengage from this conversation.

🚨COMPLETE REMISSIONS of Stage IV cancers using anti-parasitics are now being documented in the peer-reviewed literature.
HUNDREDS of studies find ivermectin and fenbendazole exert over 12 distinct anti-cancer mechanisms across more than 12 cancer types.
healthbot@thehealthb0t
Mel Gibson: "I have 3 friends. All 3 of them had stage 4 cancer…and all 3 of them…don't have cancer right now at all…" Joe Rogan: "What did they take…? Ivermectin and Fenbendazole…" Mel Gibson nods in agreement.

@MattAhlborg @PPQdotAI I had this experience recently with AgentCash and im fully sold.
PPQ does this with BTC?
English
@PPQdotAI FWIW, the query to search Twitter to find Brad's tweet cost my bot ~1¢.
I didn't have to load up credits over at Twitter's API. Nor did I have to load credits on Anthropic.
I just load credits onto PPQ and it's good for all providers and services.
Private, convenient, easy.
English
PPQ doesn't add layers, it removes layers. Chat, image, video, STT, TTS, and data enrichment endpoints all provided by one key, paid in sats.
Here is my openclaw successfully using @PPQdotAI's Twitter endpoint to find Brad's tweet quoted here. 😉
Brad Mills 🔑⚡️@bradmillscan
@MattAhlborg my guy can't even use the native twitter integration & paid API adding another layer is not gonna solve anything.

@tonyioi At this point, not sure if I respect the conviction or feel bad.

BREAKING: man discovers custodial services exist, blames the protocol

The dirtiest secret in BTC: Most lightning companies just keep all your money for themselves, at all times Then, they show you a bunch of fake LN invoices, that are never actually used Most people can't tell This tricks people into thinking LN works -- because they "used it" You won't notice, until it is time to withdraw your money (to a real crypto wallet, not controlled by them)
