Roman Yampolskiy’s P doom rating of %99.99 is alarming. Not because of the numbers but because literally no one can debunk his arguments about artificial super intelligence. If you don’t know who he is, listen to at least one, preferably 3 of his recent interviews on YouTube.

If you subscribe to the RPG version of the simulation theory I would imagine that you could use meditation to “get in touch” with who/what might be behind the “headset” that you represent. You would probably also be able to build up a bit of a narrative about what “mission” your “operator” might be on.

Gm. Happy Father’s Day to those who celebrate it this weekend. 🫡

Ok #nostr it’s been a long day. Lost 3 hours sleep last night and have felt it. I need to stay awake but kill some time. What you got for me?

The chances that you are buying Bitcoin for your grandchildren is practically nil. The “BTC is generational wealth” narrative needs to probably stop, or at least be rethought with ASI in mind. Why? Initially Narrow (and then General) Artificial SUPER Intelligence is on its way. These WILL be applied to solving human life span challenges. Longevity Escape Velocity means that many of you WILL live much, much longer lives than you think. Then there is the potential lifespan of any children you may have. No disease. Deferred aging. Absolutely wild health and aging outcomes for the positive. Stop viewing Bitcoin through a 2015 lens and start looking at it through a 2030+ lens. The Bitcoin you are buying today will likely not be used in the current multi generational narrative way.

I am laying some pavers. They are second hand and are of two different thicknesses (which adds a bit of extra work). But they were free. Also not putting down any substrate, just going straight on dirt. Total $12 spent so far on “O” rings to get the water blaster going to clean them up a bit! 🤑
