You know I've been thinking lately that there is a lot of great art along these lines on the net these days. I think it's thanks to the youth.

I am seriously considering buying this bumper sticker: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1604547776/you-can-go-to-hell-im-going-to-the

Pretty sure that was just a Tao Te Ching joke.

So let's run with it (I'm so sorry)


Chapter 1The DAO that can be patched is not the enduring and unchanging DAO. The domain name that can be transferred is not the enduring and unchanging ENS name.

Having no name, Satoshi is the Originator of heaven and earth; having a name, he is the Mother of all coins.

Always without weak hands we must be found, If its deep fucking value we would sound; But if FUD always within us be, The price we deserve is all that we shall see.

Under the unchanging protocol, it is really the same; but as development takes place, it receives the different transaction formats. Together we call them the Bitcoin Improvement Proposals. Where the git tree is the deepest is the gate of all that is subtle and wonderful.

Chapter 2All in the world know the beauty of the scarcity, and in doing this they know what fiat is; they all know the value of the decentralized currency, and in doing this they know what the US dollar is.

So it is that value and fiat give birth the one to the other; that difficulty and ease produce the other; that hodlers and weak hands fashion the two sides of a transaction; that orange-pilled and normies arise from the contrast of the one with the other; that the musical notes and tones of Zuckerberg's cryptocurrency music videos become harmonious through the relation of one with another; and that being still early and late give the idea of one following another.

Therefore the hodler manages affairs without doing anything, and conveys his transactions without the use of a hot wallet.

New blocks spring up, and there is not one which declines to show itself; they grow, and there is no claim required for their ownership; they go through the blockchain, and there is statistically no expectation of a block reward. The work is accomplished, so that the transactions may flow.

The work is done, but how no one can see; 'Tis because we don't talk about coins to family.

It's weird how secretive they're being about the location. The website doesn't say where it is, just that it's an hour away (by boat? by plane?) from Singapore. There's no actual photos, just AI mockups or whatever. You need to apply to find out the location apparently. No word on if they have actual buildings or tents or shacks or what.

Imagine if you wanted to go to a non-culty school and they were like "yeah, we'll tell you what country our campus is in... once you apply!"

Don't worry I'm sure they'll use their cryptocurrency scam money to keep their hungry students well f--

Always a coin flip on if circlejerk subs are fascist or not. But this one looks pretty alright at first glance! Lots of making fun of transphobia and creepy people.

Ugh you're probably right. I thought it looked weird but didn't really think about it.

Just as long as you don't say the 'c' word.

My wife just received an email from the online retailer. She has been asked to "Not take any photographs or copies of the product in question due to copyright issues" and it states, "the product must be returned immediately by special delivery by [DATE]." There's some other statements as well about our account being terminated if we fail to return the product by the specific date. We've got a lot of movies and series that we have purchased over the years on this account, I wouldn't want to lose them.

They've stated that taking photos of the book will break a bunch of laws. They also stated that not promptly returning the book would may break some laws, and lead to the termination of my account.

Does the CEO of Totally-Not-Amazon know that his company is signing it's name to stupid letters?

Dude came up with an unofficial wikipedia article naming dispute resolution process, used it on a single article, saw the mostly negative feedback...

And thought "you know what. I should build a political party around this and get Elon Musk on board".

15 years to realize their UIs might be bad. How many years until they realize UI and system design (including protocols, backend, etc) are inextricably linked?

 

Saw the title and knew I had to post here. Not quite as big of a self-own as Square selling Tomb Raider for a blockchain / AI pivot; but amusing nonetheless.

Now OpenAI has responded to Elon Musk's lawsuit with an email dump containing a bunch of weird nerd startup funding drama: https://openai.com/blog/openai-elon-musk

Choice quote from OpenAI:

As we get closer to building AI, it will make sense to start being less open. The Open in openAI means that everyone should benefit from the fruits of AI after its built, but it's totally OK to not share the science (even though sharing everything is definitely the right strategy in the short and possibly medium term for recruitment purposes).

OpenAI have learned how to redact text properly now though, a pity really.
