I can hardly remember a time before cell phones. That's what it's going to feel like in a few years but with AI agents.

Turns out AI personalization may be the catalyst for all the decentralized tools we need to get off the big tech platforms. Of course, we'll need private AIs to get much better, but we're not that far away.

I spent a large chunk of yesterday iterating on a browser based coop tower defense game with my sons. Kinda amazed that it's pretty fun.

Announcing that you're unfollowing someone is about the most cringe way of announcing your narcissism. So of course Boomers are doing this constantly.

Insurance is such a fiat scam. All the middle men it creates are rent-seeking by nature and the quality of the service not only becomes more expensive but worse. Direct payment, or value-for-value is the far more honest thing.

We have outrage fatigue. The last 30 years have been a constant barrage of media that demanded that we be outraged by something or other, that when truly outrageous things happen, we don't have the energy to be properly outraged. This is why the responses COVID lockdowns and the Epstein stuff are relatively tepid.

It's not just strawberries, but pretty much every fruit and vegetable that has undergone significant changes after being farmed. Cows, though, they're mostly the same. image

Gambling is what people turn to when the hope of real value-adding work is dashed.

The reason for Bitcoin's success is that it is a great savings vehicle. It has so little competition in that regard that every other use case is a rounding error. I know people don't like hearing that, but it's true.

predyx has this bet going for BIP110: The market seems to be roughly split 85/15, though it's not that liquid. Any movement in that market will be a way better signal than mere words and chest puffing by people on either side.

A sign of the times: Self-hate is so unbelievably common.
