I love that after 10 years of being married to me, my wife still doesn’t know anything about bitcoin. lol

Wouldn’t have it any other way.

Nice, thanks a lot for sharing 🙏🏼 The part that despite your mind doubting, you still followed your intuition which came more easily due to your meditation practice is particularly inspiring.

Some more photos from life on the road. Mostly from the Olympic peninsula, north cascades, Banff, and Glacier.

So much beauty out there..

These are the good old days

What else did I miss?

Makes you wonder of the future of devices like neural link.

Will we one day be able to just share raw emotions and concepts without words?

For all.

I am trying to ask if the persuit of scientific and technological advances are something that is always beneficial. If it is always a goal worth pursuing.

It is an open ended question.

I agree that we have a to be on the lookout for manipulation and propaganda but I still feel like there is a valid question in there.

Is "the apllocation of scientific knowledge for practical purposes" always something that we should strive towards?

Science is good at solving for comfort and convenience but these do not always lead to fulfillment and connection which is what makes life meaningful.

I think there will always be a tension between the two. Technology giving the power to create beauty and cause distruction. And as the power of the technology is magnified so to is the magnitude of the beauty and the destruction.

i frequently imagine satoshi sitting back somewhere and laughing at it all

I recently listened to Tucker Carlson say the following:

"We accept technological progress as progress when really it's enslavement.

It's destroying our souls and making us crazy and unhappy and dividing us from one another."

I have been thinking about it a lot and I feel very torn.

On the one hand it is clear looking at the world around us how technology is driving people away from eachother, polarising them and creating a lonlieness epidemic. Technology has given the state and corperations unprecedented power to control, monitor and manipulate us.

But at the same time I see technology as being the thing that frees humanity. As being the vehicle that could save humanity from the chains that have shackled people for far longer than any modern technology has existed.

I think open source is great but laws to enforce such a thing show how backwards our society really is, so we need governments to make these decisions for us? We’ve stumbled very far down the wrong path.
