is deep seek a good thing? what do people think?

I think the vast majority of people who use ChatGPT or Claude for basic coding assistance won’t care if their prompts or code goes to China, unless it’s something more sensitive.

What do you think?

I feel kinda restless. I got my full Bitcoin node running. I've got my Lightning node running like a champ. My Nostr relay has been up for 2 months now and is running flawlessly with no issues (and some paid users!) Now I'm bored. I'm secretly hoping something breaks so I can get lost in the fix. I guess I should look for another project. Does anyone have any ideas? Preferably something Bitcoin or Nostr related, but I'm open to any rewarding challenge.

Some days, being able to write code feels like a super power.

Which ai do you use?

Immortality — The Time Compression Problem

Sci-fi books and movies often explore the topic of immortality, and modern medicine is constantly extending the human lifespan. But what would immortality be like? The problem I keep running into as I ponder this, and other related ideas, is what I call the Time Compression Problem.

We've all experienced it. When we were children, Summer used to last forever. 20min in the doctor's waiting room felt like an eternity. Time seemed to move very slowly. But as we get older, our perception of time changes. It speeds up. And it continues accelerating the older we get. I'm in my 40s and months already feel like weeks to me. I can only imagine what time must feel like to people in their 60s and beyond.

In considering immortality, this compression in our perception of time must surely become intolerable as we reach 150, continuing on to our 2nd century. What must that be like to the person living it? At some point, a year is going to feel like a day. And this time compression is only going to continue as infinite years roll by.

I don't think our human minds could handle it. While we may live forever, the realities of time compression could render our minds broken and useless as we exceed the limits of our evolved brains. And how would that manifest? Madness? Breakdown? Perhaps some other debilitation?

At this point, it's just a thought exercise, or something to think about on the afternoon train. But as we live longer, as our technology, and our mastery of the world increase, the reality of time compression in the human mind will become a real issue that scientists and doctors need to aim their talents at. Because keeping the body going may be the easy part. Maintaining the integrity, and healthy functioning of our minds may be quite difficult, and certainly something to think about if you're writing the next best-selling sci-fi novel! #blog

When I say a mom shouldnt work, I mean that a mom should not pursue a career outside of the home.

Thought that was obvious.

Happens to me in EU. Banks block accounts or delay transfers.

There was a time when text messages weren't popular. But then it became obvious that for most things, texts were way better than voice messages.

Sometimes it takes society a while to catch up.

was good coffee, had 3. having banana right now.

⚡️NOW: New estimates reveal #Bitcoin ownership distribution.

Let's hope that individuals always have a higher percentage 🙌

hm, thanks

Celebrating expansionist ideas of the current biggest empire just because the orange man has managed to say bitcoin twice is disappointing to say the least.

Its always interesting to see how quickly bitcoiners show their true statist tendency as long as their state is the one coming out on top.
