Chatgpt is going to be the main ui for compute

MCP tool for everything, well all just be talking to jarvis

For many tasks vibe coding is so much slower and more expensive. Its like instructing and intern to do something and they keep getting it slightly wrong so you have to constantly tweak it. You also can’t get into flow state doing this.

For random scripts and one off demos it’s great though. I vibe coded a python script for pulling down a podcast rss and displayed all the entries. Boring xml parsing and plumbing i didn’t want to write and didn’t care of code quality.

Coding on notedeck with cursor hasn’t been super productive, but its nice for one off things like getting it to suggest different ways of coding a small part of the code. It’s a really nice interface for adding code-related context to the prompt and applying diffs from LLM output.

Bitcoin will never go above $1

Okay it's above $1 but it's just a fad, it'll never reach $100

Okay it hit $100 but Mt. Gox proved it's all a scam

Okay it recovered but it'll never break $1,000

Okay it broke $1,000 but governments will ban it

Okay some countries adopted it but institutions will never buy in

Okay MicroStrategy bought billions but ETFs will never be approved

Okay ETFs are approved but it'll never break 100k

Okay it broke 100k but it'll never stay above 100k, just tulips.

The strategic bitcoin reserve will never happen

Okay the US has a reserve but central banks will never adopt it

Okay central banks are buying but it'll never replace gold as a reserve asset

Okay it's surpassed gold's market cap but nation states will never use it for trade

Okay nations are settling trade in bitcoin but the IMF will never create a bitcoin standard

Okay there's a new monetary standard but $1M per coin is impossible

Okay it's worth millions but extending block times for Mars colonies is ridiculous

Okay they extended to 20-minute blocks for interplanetary sync but quantum computers will break it

Okay quantum-resistant signatures are implemented but the Dyson sphere mining farms are unsustainable

Okay fusion-powered mining is carbon negative but the intergalactic ledger will never work

Okay the blockchain spans 3 galaxies but consciousness uploads will never use sats as compute credits

Nothing stands still. I actually converted someone from Cursor to goose not too long ago. What's working better in Cursor and Line for you guys?

Cursor has replaced most of my goose use cases atm

ai has been teaching me physics at a way faster pace than i was learning by myself ten years ago. Now i have self generated ai podcasts that go into advanced concepts on demand...

I got grok3 deep search to recommend the best source to learn N=4 super yang mills. It directed me to david tong’s lecture notes on super symmetry. So now i’m deep diving into that. Then i use ai to summarize the lecture notes.

I’m using chatgpt deep research to explore intersections of ideas i’ve read about, like twistor theory, double copy, and amplituhedron/positive grassmanians. It is able to find lots of interesting cutting edge papers that relate to each other.

Considering I’m an amateur physics enjoyer thats able explore the interplay between these complex topics has been mind blowing. I’m convinced we’re going to have an acceleration of physics breakthroughs once physicists start using these tools for research.

Should we build a Cashu wallet MCP? If yes, what would it do?

In 1966 the US government (DARPA) tested the impact of radio frequency EMFs on the cognition of monkeys in a secret project called "Pandora"

The results were startling & covered up for decades.

They used the same frequency EMF your Wi-Fi and 5G phone use.

After 10hrs of exposure for 12 days..the monkey had a "slowdown in the ability to time work functions"

on the 13th day the monkey "further degraded, stopped working completely and appeared to be in a deep sleep"

they then gave the monkey 5 days of rest before irradiating it again and this time it took 8 days for slowdown to appear, 10 days for the animal to return to a deep sleep condition

they gave the monkey 5 days of rest once again, but then ended the study and at that point "the monkey had not returned to normal" according to the study report logs.

The intensity of the RF signal (2.4-4GHz) was 5mW/cm2, perfectly safe based on former and current safety thresholds.
