Great piece. Cant overstate how important @brian_armstrong , @dhh and folks like @balajis were at that time. Important that this never gets memory-holed.

Championing crypto casino culture as an expression of individual freedom isn't a principled view when held by people that are simultaneously positioning themselves to profit from the activity.
At this point I feel like we understand pretty well what's going on with LLMs: - Outputs are roughly equivalent to kernel smoothing over positional embeddings (arxiv.org/pdf/1908.11775…) - The learned computation model is *probably* bounded by RASP-L (arxiv.org/pdf/2310.16028…) -…

Pretty remarkable that the only press Zuck shared from the Llama 3 launch was @dwarkesh_sp and @rpnickson Meta did give embargoed comments to mainstream publishers, but only the independent interviewers got posted to his story. GOING DIRECT! @lulumeservey
I wrote an oped in @FT. My goal isn't to defend or to diminish memecoins. It’s to point out the backward incentives of a regulatory regime in the US that lets only memecoins thrive — while companies and tokens with more productive uses face hurdles. ft.com/content/1ceaa1…

"Read the room" is not advice for being right. It's advice for being popular. So when people give it, they're also implicitly telling us which they think is more important.
A lot of conformity, however, covertly happens with nary a word spoken. They happen through affective vibes & psychic currents: srid.ca/vibes

Not going to pretend the MacBook isn't MORE. Of course it is. But as a developer machine, the Framework 13 is shockingly capable. And the keyboard is far more satisfying to pounce code on. Oh, and thanks to TB3, it drives 6K monitors without any crazy gymnastics on Linux 😆
It's crazy to me that you can buy a Framework 13 with the stellar Ryzen 7 7840U, 32GB RAM, 1TB drive, and spend less than $1,500. This little beast runs the entire test suite for HEY in just 2 minutes, just ~20s slower than my M3 Max that costs more than 2x.

@mhdempsey Besides undermining the long-term vision of crypto that has kept so many of us in the space, memecoins aren't very technically interesting. It shouldn't be a surprise that they're not attractive to builders.
Founder: "Raising my Series C was easier than getting my child into a good NYC elementary school."
Synthetic suffering in an age where actual suffering must be eradicated.
My hypothesis: it's a rebellion against a decade of fat-acceptance messaging (which rings hollow to anyone with half a brain); it's a high-agency act in a low-agency doomscrolly world; we crave a return to the physical amid the screen-mediated performative culture we've wrought
I love @danprimack (other than his poor choice of sports franchises to support) and think he's got some important points here, but wanted to add some commentary:
Dear venture capitalists: You're blowing it axios.com/2024/04/24/ven…
Interest in memecoins will come and go, and I'm optimistic that real products/protocols will develop in the end. But we shouldn't pretend that the casino doesn't set us back. Deterring great founders and giving ammo to politicized regulators has a profound effect.
@mdudas @mhdempsey Memecoins alter how the public, regulators, and entrepreneurs see crypto. At best, it looks like a risky casino. Or a series of false promises masking a casino. This deeply affects adoption, regulation/laws, and builder behavior. I see the damage every day. You should too.

Watched “Casablanca” again last night. One scene that stood out: when Rick (Humphrey Bogart) first sees Ilsa (Ingrid Bergman) at his club. Why? It’s not the acting (which is great) but because there is a 26-second close-up of Bergman’s face during which I checked my phone twice…
