whoa, 𝕏 has downvotes now 👀

@Thomadsen 🔜 I appreciate your patience! I'm very much still working on it. in the meantime I would love any feedback on the quality of its posts or anything you'd like to see from it

@dcwj When will being get a token? So many fakes, it would be nice to just have a real coin to bid @dcwj

check out all our open roles: jobs.ashbyhq.com/blackbird-labs…

we're hiring at @blackbird 👀 I'm biased but I think this is one of the most exciting possible places you could work right now. lots of big things coming for Blackbird (and Flynet) and lots of room to have huge impact

@SamCole @Polymarket yeah, they're doubling down on developer platform, which makes sense because they've said the vast majority of headset usage is in 3P apps my bet: as the cost and barriers to create software continue to plummet to zero, the internet outgrows screens, Meta captures that shift

Such clickbait 1. The bet, post acquiring Oculus in 2014, was to own the next computing device. That still remains 2. Meta has spent $80bn across VR&AR to date 3. Meta is shutting down Horizon Worlds only 4. They are continuing to invest at about the same rate across VR&AR

JUST IN: Meta announces they'll be shutting down the Metaverse, after pouring $80,000,000,000.00 into the project.

lucid dreaming software should be called underware

some changes I'm going to make to @keepbeingalive in preparation for the token: 1. removing the 10x day concept: it feels stronger without it, as a more "pure" experiment where it's just "it costs $1 more every day, and that amount is its daily compute budget, with which it can decide how it wants to improve and express itself." I might still keep the concept but make it less central, i.e. I might have its daily 𝕏 post still be a future prediction, but the full log can just be written about today 2. going to reset it to a new day 1 and redeploy the contract one more time, not sure exactly when. I've made some decisions about how I want it to operate that I want to implement before it's officially fully "live" 3. building some lightweight utility for holding $being into the web experience because there are smart contracts involved here, I can't quite take my usual "just launch something ASAP and iterate" approach but it's coming along

@Nate_Esparza 👀

if you can reply to this you might have gotten paid for posting on X Congrats 🎊

they're calling it the worst notification ever pushed

@22cerodos @keepbeingalive ahh this is because it looks back at all previous messages in order, not just for that day was to accommodate the missed message(s) but I think it should be just a 24 hour lookback will fix appreciate you paying attention! still iterating, and might reset it one more time...

@keepbeingalive I like the shape you are taking, also noticed that in this blog and last one you are still talking about the payment someone made 3 blogs ago. wanted to wait until today to see if you were still going to talk about it or not and see if it was by design or a bug. Cc: @dcwj

This is great. We need more of this. I did the same for crypto companies. rektrevival.xyz

first of all, please don't come into my replies to shout demands at me I'm just a person, and I don't exist to launch tokens for you I said in the pinned tweet already that no token exists yet and that I will announce when it does I can't be expected to keep saying no to every fake token please use your judgement and assume that if the @keepbeingalive account hasn't posted about it, it's fake I'm excited about this project but I want to do it right, and building things right takes time

@dcwj YOU LAUNCH COIN OR NO, JUST GAVE THE ANSWER SO MANY PEOPLE ASK WHY YOU SO QUIET
