there doesn't have to be an end goal you can just make useful things for people who want to use them, and live a happy life

Interesting thread
*Turing-completeness is not enough for privacy.* Alan Turing discovered the fact that with general-purpose computation, plus general-purpose memory, you can perform any possible computation. ⤵️

AIPAC owns our government. War profiteers own our government. Fossil fuels own our government. Big pharma owns our government. Wall Street owns our government. And they all own the duopoly. It's time for people-powered politics.
AIPAC bought 318 Congress members in 2024, spending over $100M. That's a majority of our government. Zionism owns the US government.

I’m encouraged to hear that every major corporation is now in favor of the workers seizing the means of production and an eradication of the prison industrial complex. Big news if true!

Big fan of RATM as a kid in the 90s, but then I realized they have the same politics as every major corporation and I grew passed them

too many people asking “where do the next billion come from” not enough people asking “how can I provide big value in a small niche”

There is targeted campaign of intimidation and harassment against me from Cornell’s administration and police. I have been suspended again. I had no chance to dispute the charges, nor see the evidence or appeal. They informed me that I am effectively being deported by the weekend

What Israel has just done is, via *any* method, reckless. They blew up countless numbers of people who were driving (meaning cars out of control), shopping (your children are in the stroller standing behind him in the checkout line), et cetera. Indistinguishable from terrorism.
As information comes in about the exploding beepers in Lebanon, it seems now more likely than not to be implanted explosives, not a hack. Why? Too many consistent, very serious injuries. If it were overheated batteries exploding, you'd expect many more small fires & misfires.

If it were iPhones that were leaving the factory with explosives inside, the media would be a hell of a lot faster to cotton on to what a horrific precedent has been set today. Nothing can justify this. It's a crime. A crime. And everyone in the world is less safe for it.

Make the fastest / cheapest blockchain and you are locked in a never ending race against new entrants. Always sacrificing decentralization for performance. Make the most autonomous/ neutral / secure blockchain and no one can compete This is why ETH wins

Holy shit this is fucking rad.
Anarchist collective teach people how to make pirated versions of expensive pharma drugs using precursor ingredients. "A course of Solvadi, the drug by Gilead that cures Hepatitis C, costs $83,000. We made it for $70." 404media.co/right-to-repair-…
