All of the sudden, I have zaps on notes again on Damus. What did I miss? #asknostr

GM, ghee in the cup today with my coffee #coffeechain

The power was out in the neighborhood today, and the kids and wife all took a nap at the same time. So, I decided to dig into some reading that isn’t about programming for the first time in a long while. #bookstr

Finally learned my lesson and I’m focusing on the back-end first. So, this is what personal growth feels like? #devstr #grownstr

Quick sesh, then getting some work done. #weedstr

Applying to jobs today, and I came to a few conclusions: 1) I fucking hate Workday. Worst job application experience ever. They should just burn it down and start from scratch. 2) Forcing everyone to racially identify themselves on job applications hits differently now. We should probably just go to racially blind applications. 🤷‍♂️

Moon is out. GM

Anyone have any thoughts on this philosophical question of whether or not Layer 2 is inherently limited by Layer 1? Genuinely interesting.

Just replied to a cold LinkedIn message asking if they need someone with my skills 😂 Don’t send me messages expecting me to not ask for something back.

Sorry to post something from Xeet, but this kind of thinking is dangerous and leads straight to Totalitarianism. Why? Utopia and Totalitarianism are linked, because the only way to even get close to utopia is though complete control of society. #grownstr #utopia #totalitarianism

#grownstr #quotestr #meritocracy "The existence of elites doesn’t just happen; it is systematized, premeditated, refined to a practice assuring that those who are selected as “promising leadership material” will prove to have the right stuff, thus validating the methods of selection and, in the process, perpetuating the system that has made them possible. It is said that at night, when elitists look at themselves in a mirror, they mutter, “The system cannot be all bad . . .”" -"Democracy Incorporated: Managed Democracy and the Specter of Inverted Totalitarianism" by Sheldon S.

Maybe, it’s a good thing that Bitcoin Twitter (“X”) isn’t on here arguing about the same things for weeks?
