It’s the exact same use case as launching the old roadster into solar orbit near Mars. It’s sheer audacity. It is an example of what we can do, and more than that, what we can _afford_ to do. It is youthful exuberance and power in full display. It is a message to the rest of the world: “You can’t catch us.” Cue: We are the champions.

before ai it was cognitively expensive to be a programmer cuz you had to really use brain cycles for everything, from architecting, to even using the right variable names etc. it was genuinely draining. & if you programmed for a whole day, you were fucking tired. even code reviews required you to think deeply & you had to be aware of the entire code base to some extent too. so not only did you have to have context loaded, you had to do manual inference if you will. ai completely eliminated all of this strain.

God intentionally made your calling beyond your natural ability so you would have to depend on His grace to fulfill it.

You’re still early. Learn programming. Study crypto. Understand everything about LLMs. Keep learning. Become obsessed with something. The right information will change your life.

Hard to put into words how huge this is. Epic really did it. Apple's monopoly on payment processing is finally over. 🫡

I firmly believe this. Infinite scalability + super fast transfers, thanks to app chains, IBC, and single-slot finality PoS. And soon, product + liquidity will match the tech.
Cosmos is the next Solana. 2019 - 2022: apps deploy on Eth as the only option. 2022 - 2024: apps deploy on Sol since it's fast/liquid. 2025+: apps become sovereign, interoperable L1s with IBC V2. The internet of blockchains, powered by $ATOM.

This is not a movie…. This is what creativity, capitalism, and a free economy delivers… Tesla’s cyber cabs and cyber vans, and humanoids… Ray Bradbury, Arthur C Clark, H.G Wells, George Lucas, Gene Roddenberry dreamed of this of day.

I confronted SEC Chair Gary Gensler with a deceptively simple question: Is a Yankee ticket a security? Mr. Gensler claims that NFTs are securities. I see no legal difference between a Yankee ticket that offers access to a Yankee game and an NFT that offers access to an animated web series (as in the case of Stoner Cats). Mr. Gensler is misclassifying collectibles, art, and tickets as securities.
