@saylor @AtlasHodld you understand the entire point of a turkish ice cream guy is to rug you right? amk

I met Nick Land a few weeks ago. He mentioned that many people in his circles were anti-LLMs. Someone asked why he thought so many people were. His answer was better than anything so short I thought of: “People like to exist critically with respect to something.” This I think accurately characterizes a lot of people whose outputs and inputs primarily consist of “discourse” about rather than direct contact with the reality at hand. Existing critically with respect to something makes it easy to seem cool, sophisticated, above something, hard-to-impress and therefore worth trying to impress, especially to others who also don’t have contact with the phenomena itself. And for that reason I think it’s cheap. And to someone who has an inside view of what is being discussed, it’s always so transparent and boring and compressible. I’m far more impressed by someone who is capable of loving something and showing others why it’s beautiful or good. Doesn’t have to be LLMs, but anything at all.

love is that which enables choice love is always stronger than fear always choose on the basis of love

@speakerjohnash @algekalipso Truth could be painful, and some people's don't have high pain threshold. when this threshold is triggered, person's psyche tries to offload the tension on to truth teller. best strategy is to decouple or gently turn the energy to hold space for processing.

yeah but I get in trouble for this and accusations that my valence isn't positive enough the thing about this concept is it creates negative valence in people and they DO NOT LIKE IT @algekalipso part of your research needs to be how do we create positive valence in people receiving messages they don't want to receive or integrate.

@RunemirQi It’s natural, too much artificial noise in crypto.

When you spend time talking to ordinary people (outside of the Twitter bubble), you realize everyone talks about AI, but almost nobody talks about crypto. AI has steamrolled the crypto narrative. Which is sad, obviously people don’t care much about becoming a sovereign individual. AI is a shiny bonbon that anybody can get. Crypto is harder, much more complex to participate in. People prefer easy bonbons.

amazing critique of Burning Man spirituality

There is no limit to how many illusions and trickeries humans create to avoid painful emotions

AI could be the greatest rebellion against the "bourgeoisie" by the "proletariat" if they would just embrace it

When black swan?

@BreatheLesss Time for community schooling

Alright, I think we need to be honest and prepare, as a society, to face a future where the current school system simply doesn't work. The horror stories I've heard in the last 2-3 years from teachers would terrify you.

@sittingforideas Sorry not sorry, Even the one who says ‘there is no self’ shines as the light by which that very thought is known. No self argument is a no brainer.

yes, but youtube.com/watch?v=NdhuYL…

@sittingforideas It's a misconfiguration of self and Self

made me think: soulless greed is everywhere. greed is inherently soulless. constantly chasing money, attention, and power with no concern for others or truth is how you identify insecurity. i don’t believe in being purely evil, but in evil intentions and actions, that stem directly from insecurity. these are all mere symptoms of insecurity.

Lion is out of the cage

Life is about enjoying the sense objects manifested by the subject, not suffering by being object of subjugated duality i.e money.

@speakerjohnash Second derivate, high complexity, just some approximate projections
