„simplicity is the ultimate sophistication“ ~bacfur-bitfed Pre-seed/ Seed Crypto VC

“I wasn’t the fastest guy in the world. I wouldn’t have done well in an Olympiad or a math contest. But I like to ponder. And pondering things, just sort of thinking about it and thinking about it, turns out to be a pretty good approach.’ – Jim Simons

The biggest near term risk is this current generation of emerging workers come to rely on AI to do their thinking which makes them less qualified to do a job. AI won’t replace their job, it will make them replaceable in it.

@zerohedge True. That is why Bitcoin is based on energy: you can issue fake fiat currency, and every government in history has done so, but it is impossible to fake energy.

share things with your friends–and only your friends. cut out the middlemen, cut out the MEGACORPS, and cut out the strangers. you to your friend. your friend to you. repeat as desired. share quietly on Tlon Messenger.

you probably hear the word "decentralized" all of the time. it's thrown around a lot, and is often used as some sort of vague tech jargon. but what does it actually mean, and what does it mean for Tlon Messenger? for us, decentralized simply means that there is no one central

its depressing how many people I formerly liked to read are now posting what is clearly chatGPT generated tweet slop. they might be using their own ideas, but you can see the highly distinct chatGPT voice everywhere now. and its sensationalist, impersonal, and just terrible.

How is Tlon Messenger different from other apps? Aspects of Tlon Messenger may look familiar, but its engineering is fundamentally different. Because your Tlon Messenger account gives you both an identity and a node on a peer-to-peer network, your messages, media, and social

Introducing: Tlon Messenger For a decade we have been building a new foundation for personal computing from scratch. A new VM, kernel, network, programming language, and identity system to replace the centralized model we are currently stuck with. We took great care in

Rich people get to have their Luddite moment too. If rote busy work gets replaced with machines, over time the world creates new jobs doing different kind of work that machines can't do. If this wasn't the case after centuries of innovation, unemployment today would be 99%
I'm not sure people understand how important this is: Goldman Sachs CEO says that AI can draft 95% of an IPO prospectus “in minutes.” White collar jobs will go first.... and fast.

Crypto needs to make a hard pivot from Telegram to Tlon Messenger. Not your hardware, not your chats. Trusting Signal with your data is like trusting an exchange with your coins. Just self custody your data and coins. @NativePlanetIO + Urbit unironically fixes this.

“Too complex to be absolutely secure” Nock Stack. 12 opcodes. Soon to be running as a unikernel. In the future, on metal.
Intel HW is too complex to be absolutely secure! After years of research we finally extracted Intel SGX Fuse Key0, AKA Root Provisioning Key. Together with FK1 or Root Sealing Key (also compromised), it represents Root of Trust for SGX. Here's the key from a genuine Intel CPU😀
