Due dilligence in DeFi is collapsing to "put money in my friend's shit" and frankly I'm all here for it.
Hey @brian_armstrong : how do we properly evaluate B20 token functionality when the docs are confusing (esp. regarding multipliers re: dividends and stock splits) can you make the rust code public so we can see what is going on here?

Truth is, most people don鈥檛 really want these things.
They have vague aspirations of being fit, rich, or happy, but deep inside they鈥檙e okay with not being them.
For instance, I never really cared about being fit.
That鈥檚 the only reason I鈥檓 not ripped today.
I didn鈥檛 want it, so I wasn鈥檛 willing to pay the price for it.
The hard part is wanting the right things.
Once you have that, aligning your actions is not that hard. That鈥檚 why in many spiritual traditions people pray for the reordering of their desires so they align with the right things (metta bhavana / Gayatri / Rachamana liba ba鈥檈i).
The second truth people miss about luck is that we live in a probabilistic, path-dependent world.
Truly wanting something changes changes the distribution.
Which is why people like Marc seem so lucky, and why visualization and prayer work.
Competitive athletes and successful entrepreneurs know this to be true.
It鈥檚 more than training your mind. You are literally changing the odds.
Take responsibility. Stop blaming others or luck.
Align your desires / you get what you want.
Align your actions / agency is what you do.
Allow for time / skills take time.
You will succeed.
The bottleneck is never opportunity or information.
It鈥檚 the intensity and direction of desire.

Hi. If elliptic curves are broken so that any exposed public key leads to compromise and it's by a financially-motivated hacker who鈥檚 top priority is to steal crypto, the entire fucking world is going to zero.
Having your magic internet coins in bunker mode is not going to help you.
It would mean some random ass fucking cyber criminals > every developed nation state and private corporation in the world.
Think this is broadly correct
I have a counter-view on this.
You dont need to lock in, release a slop machine with AI generated BS and keep tweeing job's not done.
Plug out - talk to real humans, see where money flows and think about the regulatory hurdles to building a real business. Raise money from VCs who care about that market segment and are patient enough to see a business built there.
Build in peace.
Give VCs IRR that help them raise new funds
Crypto moves fast and breaks itself. The diseases has no diagnoses because it enriches a few and lets the rest think I'm a failure because I failed at the grift.
The businesses that built value and exited last two quarters have founders who
1. Are barely on X
2. Took 卤7 years for billion dollar exits
3. Created new market sectors.
Stop locking in. Actually go touch grass. Sit under a tree. Watch the birds. Your brains need it badly. Speak to founders building real things.
The feed - is not the market.
My personal favourite is the dutch auction with permissionless exchange. Similar to @Uniswap's tokenJar mechanism.
Is there some weird rule I haven't read that crypto/tech type men in their 30s start speaking in absolutes all of a sudden.
It's weird and offputting and I'd appreciate if you guys would stop.
Basically this. Pick a niche and own it. Stop overthinking.
the reason that tweet is silly is because crypto people, for the most part, can't just "pivot to AI". the same way you can't just "pivot to nuclear engineering/underwater welding" or whatever. so from a career perspective it made more sense to double down on the industry you're in and have the relevant expertise, talent, network in etc.
I think this belongs in a museum
AI slop has fundamentally changed how I experience reading.
I now notice the tells everywhere. The short, punchy sentences. The relentless groups of three. The em dashes鈥攖he unnecessary little asides.
And once you see it, you can鈥檛 unsee it.
The worst part? My brain now flags perfectly innocent human writing as AI slop too. AI hasn鈥檛 just made me enjoy bad writing less. It鈥檚 made me suspicious of all writing.
That鈥檚 a real loss.
I have no desire to distrohop from glorious @nixos_org but the screeching hate towards @dhh and @OmarchyLinux by the incels on reddit just might make me do it out of spite.
If you are on @aeroxyz just remember to go in/out via @VexyFinance. 10% haircut on the way out is irrelevant if you got a max-lock veNFT at 10% discount!
This is very troubling because I am guessing this level of anxiety applies to a lot of people right now.
@AnthropicAI your marketing nonsense is getting very irresponsible. Just remember the effects it's having outside your bubble.
Remote teams + national holidays probably need some work as a policy. Feels exponentially more disruptive than having just standardised set of days off that you would get with IRL teams.
Please be vigilant and participate if you lock SQUILL.
Monitoring for this stuff very imporant. We introduced notifications via TG at @AragonProject for exactly this reason.
