"#Bitcoin doesn’t fix people—it amplifies what’s already inside them. If you're disciplined, it rewards you. If you're a degenerate, it magnifies that too. Wealth brings influence, but are you ready for it?"

Human nature cannot be fixed by better money.

Free speech is a psyop. It can’t exist but in your head—because nobody hears you.
Only tolerated speech exists. And it is the level of tolerance we talk about when we mention “free speech”.
Free speech doesn’t exist in the communist dystopia because of centralized speech tolerance guidelines. It doesn’t exist in the ancap private citadel utopia either because of decentralized speech tolerance rules: citadels have various degrees of tolerance, but they do have limits.
No, Apple Watch, I’m not working out. It’s called walking. I’m just walking to my destination.
I use Replit, it’s a sandbox system.
What I did forget though is to create branches to develop and test new features. Everything in master. That sucks. Total noob. 🤣
Yes, I have it. As soon as I lose my patience I will go to the last working commit (which is probably 50 commits ago because the agent commits every change he does).
Just got my centenary edition of The Kybalion.
There is no ideal book, but if I had a book that I could call “bible”, this would be it. Concise, precise, more descriptive than prescriptive.
That said, I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone.
I’m gonna burn through a lot of AI credits trying to fix my websocket implementation.
Replit must be happy. People like me are probably their best customers, not professionals who know exactly what they’re doing.

I can read something like this at the beginning of a 20 minute taxi ride and spend the whole trip pondering upon it.
Even the smallest details of your external life reflect your inner state of being.
I, for instance, cannot be at the back seat of a car—I get nauseous. But I feel great when I drive myself or at least in the front passenger seat seeing the road ahead.
And so in my life: I like to be at the steering wheel.
Eccentric public figures work to gain the attention of the lowest common denominator.

The masses see only the extreme, the daring. The Middle Way is boring and unattractive. That’s why extremes and hyperboles work best on the public.
Trump is already overly aggressive with his “if Russia doesn’t agree, we’ll use more super-sanctions” and “the world will be disappointed if Russia refuses” rhetoric which means he knows his conditions are not going to be satisfactory to Russia.

Pirate Bay used to be my go-to torrent website.
What I’d love to have is an AI agent that can create excel spreadsheets based on data I feed it. Simple things like catalogs and price lists, maybe something a bit more complex later.

Asked Claude to remove Websocket entirely so I have clean slate. 😬
Creative destruction…
The days when I’m sick and have no desire to do anything are good for some self-reflection.
I’ve had a lot of those days in the past 3 months.
Claude broke my websocket implementation because I wanted to optimize it. And now it can’t fix it. The app runs but won’t render on the client side.
Websocket is something above my head. I hope I’ll find a solution.
