I try to study code every day, but I’m so easily distracted by the joy of reading a good book. 🤓
Punch me in the f**king face.
Steve Jobs’ iPhone reveal in 2007 is considered one of the most iconic technology presentations of all time due to its profound impact on the smartphone industry and global culture.
Noteworthy mentions of past Technology launches that were paradigm shifting :
1. IBM’s Introduction of the IBM 5150 (1981)
2. Apple’s First Macintosh Launch (1984)
3. Microsoft’s Windows 95 Launch (1995)
4. Google’s Introduction of Google Maps (2005)
5. Amazon’s Kindle Launch (2007)
6. Facebook’s F8 Developer Conference Announcement of Facebook Platform (2007)
Eagerly anticipating what Tesla will reveal to the world tomorrow🫶
Many goods that we think are constructed are actually not constructed but a result of creating the ideal environment for natural processes to occur to produce the desired good e.g chemical compounds
Attempting to construct these chemical compounds in a lab would not be economically feasible & viable. Instead we work with nature for the best desired outcome.
There are certain emergent ideals for civilisation that have resulted from the natural evolution of human action.
Civilisations that have had strong property rights, honesty, savings and hard work ethics as part of their culture thrived and were more abundant than societies that suppressed those factors or tried to ‘construct’ a better system for the betterment of civilisation.
The best we can do for civilisation is create a fair set of rules for everyone to play by. To not reason human action which has no intellectual or predictive value but create an environment that allows natural universal forces to shape human action for the desired outcome.

Anon, whenever there is a significant leap in software programming it’s called ‘Artificial Intelligence’…the most basic computer program in the 60’s was once called A.I because it could respond to commands & prompts.
Maybe these sophisticated LLM’s and algorithms will become ‘normal software’ in the next few years until the next big leap is made in software development🤔.
No one invented Gold, we founded it.
Satoshi,Nakamoto didn’t invent Digital Scarcity, he founded it.
Commodities aren’t invented & #Bitcoin is a commodity.
Satoshi.Nakamoto: Can I have my robe back Adam?
Adam.Back : No.
Fixed it @jackmallers by listening to @moneymatterzpod

Early pioneers in the development of the Internet accurately envisioned the future of the symbiosis between humans & computers and what its impact would be on society.
It reminds me of how plebs talk about #Bitcoin and what its impact will be on civilization.
Anon, what if we overestimate the role of government in how messed up society is? What if human civilization will always be chaotic and we are just dumb slow learning creatures that constantly make mistakes with how we allocate our resources and use our tools?
Imagine a social media playback controller where content created can be accessed either visually via video, listened to via audio or read via ‘speech to text’ .This content would be accessible from one media playback controller visible on the users profile panel?
The Pareto principle (80/20) rule states that 20% of the input is responsible for 80% of the outcome.
This ratio is present in life & the universe. It’s found throughout business, economics and natural systems.
Examples can be found in forest ecosystems, supply chains, genetic evolution, brain neural activity, astrophysics, seismic activity & biodiversity.
Using this principle, one can deduce that 80% of time & effort contributes to 20% of the outcome.
With time and effort scarce one would like to delegate to technology and automate the clerical & mechanical process of searching, calculating, plotting & transforming data so one can focus more effort towards activities that require intellectual capability.
AI & #Bitcoin might not change the 80/20 Pareto principle, but it will definitely improve the efficiency & productivity of that 80% effort and drastically improve the quality of that 20% output.
John Von Neumann wrote an interesting piece titled ‘The Computer and the brain’ which contained all his current work on computer automation. He described it as “an approach towards an understanding of the nervous system from the mathematicians point of view”

I don’t normally get emotional for films but I will embarrassingly admit when watching ‘M3GAN’ the scenes before the plot actually becomes horrific that demonstrated the possible benefits of a emotional connection & friendship to an AI companion made me teary eyed…
Watching the humanoid robot offer support to the human character during a difficult time was like the best friend you never had, growing up while being bullied by your peers or a victim of abuse that possibly stifled your growth as a human being. 🫶
One of the things I 🫶 about AI Deep learning is the terminology used to abstract complex concepts. Expressions like Convoluted Neural Networks, dense layers, multi-dimensional data arrays or vectors 🤓…
Such a nerd Anon.
The most powerful & accepted language ever invented, was the representation of the concept of Mathematics.It could be used as a tool to discover concepts in physics that helped us further understand our environment & connection to one another.
This exploration of our environment & connection to each other & life will continue to develop.
New discoveries in different facets of the universe will unravel as we transition & settle into the Digital Age, & curiosity makes one wonder what will be the next epoch and beyond for civilization.
@GaryGensler understands the importance of decentralization & giving the protocol time to develop and actually become Decentralized.
Watch his 16 hour lectures on #Bitcoin. Anon you claim to love #Bitcoin, but can you give 16hours of content on #Bitcoin?
The main reason why Technology advances is the primary economic driver & motivation of Profit.
Money is an intelligence in its own right & to ensure its survival and role in progressing humanity forward, within its space of metaphysical existence has given birth to #Bitcoin.
Thoughts inspired by the recent conversation between @Breedlove22 and @Eric.Weiss on The What is Money podcast.
Anon we are expanding and exploring consciousness through technology and yet there are those that want to stifle growth and destroy life. 💔
You know what would accelerate the purchasing power of #Bitcoin Anon? Create a highly desirable product that can only be purchased with #bitcoin.
