"Black and white portrait of a boy under the rain" by DALL-E.

Sometime ago I played a bit with DALL-E, the deep neural net from OpenAI that is capable of producing very convincing pieces of art. I decided I will be sharing with you the most impressive ones. This is "Portrait of Yukio Mishima by Egon Schiele".

If you’re for something lyrical/philosophical, I would recommend The Outsider by Albert Camus. If you’re into something more scientific/visionary (and have some brain energy to spare) Godel, Escher Bach (GEB in short) by Douglas Hofstadter. If you’re into sci-fi, anything from Alistar Reynolds. And lastly, you will *never* go wrong with something by Dostoevsky. My favorite by him is Notes from the Underground. Another Russian worth reading is Bulgakov, in particular The Master and Margarit. I hope at least one title would be of your interest. Enjoy!

Mempool is slow today, we need more miners! 💪

#[0] fuck twitter 🤟 I remember you mentioning there you run a BTC node. I’m thinking to do the same, might hit you up for info if you’re keen.

I was sure they would come to senses on this. I am super bullish about BTC. I got into crypto in 2021 and to be honest, this last bear market made me suspend my DCAing for a couple of months. I wasn’t really worried but I preferred to save more powder in case we would go lower. Now after FTX and the resilience shown by the industry I am 100% chill. Bitcoin is here to stay, period!

I wonder if that is the kind of incentive we want for the platform, considering that the type of creators you attract will bias the way the community grows and develops itself. I would hope for a more mature platform than tiktok or twitter.

As an expat living in NL since 10+ years, I am not particularly fond of Dutch people in general (in line with how fond Dutch generally are about foreigners). I am though a fan of Plan B, and of all positive figures in the BTC sphere. And I dislike trolls in general! Keep up the good work 💪

Para mi Linux antes de Ubuntu fue siempre uno de esos dos. Pero jugué con muchos diferentes! Me hacen falta un poco esos días de CD-ROMs y revistas para “hackers” 😂
