Once again, people are selling a scarce asset for paper, which is losing its value faster than we though. Brilliant traders.

The rise in AI-powered cyberattacks and malware is terrifying. I've never seen anything like this. I've dealt with many compromises over the last two months, after years without any.

Being able to play music is such an important part of human experience. Pick up a musical instrument if you haven’t done so yet.

The reason I do not want to pay for a search engine like Kagi is that most of my searches are just very basic ("I need this Chrome extension"). For anything more complex, I use AI chatbots.

AI can solve complex mathematical problems but can’t write social media posts without it feeling like slop.

On X, you feel like you are getting the best information, while what you are actually getting is mostly fud and doom.

Nostr should have a "fading" feature. Notes after a certain period should be purged, by default, unless some predefined criteria is met.

It's crazy how mentally draining it is to manage complex tasks with AI. Anyone feeling the same? So much reading, reviewing, deciding!

I had the worst headache last night. Almost thought something's wrong and I should have gone to the hospital, but most likely it was just 'coffee detox headache' since I didn't have much coffee over the weekend. I hate when coffee does this. If I drink coffee all the time, I'm fine but when I stop for a bit, I get this terrible headache. Anyone in the same boat?

Many of the arguments for ZEC boil down to: “You were late to Bitcoin; now you can be early to Zcash!” But let’s say Zcash succeeds and becomes like Bitcoin. Wouldn’t that same logic justify all these people switching to something new and fancy that they could be early to?

Bitcoin has been so calm staying around $84k. Prime for a breakout on or around Oct 5 when the ‘cyclers’ capitulate.

Bitchat is no longer available on the App Store in India. If access to the apps we use can be so easily controlled by the government, we can be sure to see more and more governments take advantage of it.

AI live generated video is getting so good it is only a matter of time before scammers start using it en masse. Be vigilant. Do not trust anything you see on a screen.

What I learned from prediction markets: most of the time, we just do not know anything, and the probabilities tend to simply lean towards the closer or simpler target.

Fiscal responsibility is irresponsible when everyone knows the system will eventually implode, so they’d better rush to get as much out of it as they can.

The trouble with money is that you can accumulate enough to stop worrying about it, but then spend your days worrying about your money. Learning when you have enough—and how to leave it alone—might be the most neglected financial skill.
