Doing my part to purple pill the folks over there.
You can't automate things you've never done before.
Understanding precedes automation.
Example:
You can make Machines can classify billions of images, but you must first understand how to classify a single image.
Automation scales what you already understand.
Does this still hold true in the age of AI? WDYT?
Government shutting down social media during a major crisis is always counter-productive. Doing a social media blackout is the worst decision to make.
Suddenly, the everyday social media users who are online only to get their memes, read artists gossips, buy product from their favourite influencers, get exposed to the crisis.
Social media is a pressure valve, people use it for distraction, venting, and processing. When you remove it, the anger and frustration spills into the streets.
The ruling government can try to take control of the narrative by flooding social media with counterpoints, or bringing up trivial issues to divert the people attention. But this needs to be done skilfully, as they will have to go against the algorithm.
When social media algorithm prioritise outrage and sensationalism to gain virality, any content that tries to calm the narrative will struggle to gain traction.
Worse still, when these algorithms that power your social media feeds are actively being manipulated, by certain people (perhaps a foreign government),.. who have access to manipulate it,.. who have a lot to gain from the destabilisation of the government that they are not in favour of.
I can’t expect everyone to leave the comfort of the familiar social media that they are all currently on. I cannot tell everyone to just start sending Notes and Other Stuff Transmitted by Relays.
But one advice that someone wiser once give me is this, when you see something starts to pop up online and everywhere, always ask yourself, “why am I seeing this now?”
You may not be able to change the world,
but what you can do is not let the world change you.
You may not be able to make the world better,
but you can make someone’s world better.
You can’t live forever,
but your deeds will outlast you.
With the iPhone Pro 1TB or 2TB configuration, you can run a full Bitcoin Node on your iPhone. You might want to get the orange version. 😬
We are able to explore other dimensions… with mathematics.
Mathematics gives us the tools to model, define, and analyse worlds of higher dimensions.
If only I had been told this as a kid, I might have loved math at school.
“Just make it exist first. You can make it good later.”
That "later" will never come.
There will always be a backlog of other things that you’ll have to “make exist”. You have no time to come back to make it good. That "later" is just hopeful thinking.
Oh we are only connected on one relay 😅 I need to add more relay.
Ada tak relay local malaysia centric? 😬
Some people are so poor,
all they have is money.
When you're burned out,
you don't feel tired,..
you feel finished.
It is not rest that you need,
you need a reset.
Rest is just escapism.
Why bother "disconnect",
only to “connect” back at it again?
Reboot, realign, and,..
reclaim your purpose.
If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?
If Grafana chart turns yellow and no one's around to see it, did the latency really spike?
🤔
Secured the domain name.
Setting up the repo.
Lets see how fast I can get it to MVP.

What? When? Where?
Replace “W” with “T”,
you’ll get the answer for those questions.
Flintstones to Jetson is like Simpsons to Futurama.
"They hate us for who we are." That is what they want everyone to believe.
The truth is they were hated because of what they did, not because of who they are.
They did what they did to those people because they hated who those people are.
😎I’m excited to be cooking up a little toy project I’ve been thinking about for a while.
Some fragments of the vision:
> Public experiment in value & identity
> Art + tech + culture mashup
> Lightning-native, maybe Nostr-flavored
> Possibly collectible, but definitely not NFTs
Previously I have wrote why I think Jack Dorsey is not Satoshi Nakamoto. Here is another point I would like to add to it.
Satoshi Nakamoto not only wrote the Bitcoin whitepaper, he actually wrote the code for the initial implementation of Bitcoin. He authored the whitepaper and coded the implementation.
It’s not like nostr:npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q0uf63m wrote a whitepaper for a peer-to-peer messaging application that operates over Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) mesh networks, and then wrote the initial code that implements it.
Wait. nvm.
