Let go of tunnel vision I've been doing Sam Harris' "Real Attention" challenge and it has been quite helpful already in rewiring my brain, to be less reactive. One thing I am increasingly noticing in particular is just how important vision is in determining where our attention goes. If we want to be centered and present, we need to become aware of how our vision triggers the reactive brain. And we can relearn how to see without grasping, without contracting around the things we are observing.

Reading Andrew Ross Sorkin’s “1929” about the Black Thursday and the ensuing Great Depression. Two striking observations about the gold standard at the time: 1) The massive bubble and eventual bist actually happened on a gold standard, in other words Bitcoiners’ assumption that hard money will simply fix everything may be too optimistic. Chat GPT’s thoughts on the reasons below 2) Despite 1), gold of course massively outperformed during the crash, resulting in FDR’s executive order to abolish private gold ownership. In that scenario Bitcoin ownership would arguably be far more difficult to abolish. Overall, it’s a very good read with a lot of echoes with today. Curious about any more thoughts and insights!

I feel nothing

This may be an excellent time to buy Square stock. The stock seems poised to catch up with the other big Tech titles once it breaks out of that channel. Especially now that we have that Bitcoin backwind with a real opportunity to disintermediate Visa/Mastercard in the long term. CC @jack wdyt?

@Club Orange Thinking about signing up. Can I get a glimpse of groups in London before I do? I think the lack of insight in general might be a barrier to signing up for people.
