Lifting heavy weights this week.
No one is spending their memecoins/tokens and it shows. Speculation kills economic progress in this space. The opportunity cost of minting an NFT or paying for an experience becomes too much.

I want folks making a living off their work. Artists able to travel, musicians putting on shows, and farmers selling produce.
Really excited to visit Disneyland this winter while Erica and I work in Los Angeles.
Simplicity is so darn expensive.

Erica: "Oh yeah, they talked about that in the Expo Router YouTube video I sent. Did you watch it?"

Me: "Absolutely not."

*Erica laughing*

Me: "My life exists in like 10 second increments. If it isn't 10 seconds long, I can't understand it, I swipe up. I exist 10 seconds at a time."
Memecoins and zkcasting have crowded out a lot of friends on the feed. And for reasons before that many took a break from social media.

Hopefully next week we can get back to business. It’s been cool playing with novel tech, but v distracting and tough keeping up with folks.

Touching grass tomorrow 👍
Extending our vision AI models and CDN for @anoncast has been a lot of fun!

We were already using this work for stories shared from Uno within our alpha group, but now we can say we are safely supporting others in the ecosystem.

These are the charts I watch.

The Price is Right is now surrounded by JG Wentworth, Humana health plan, and Colonial Penn life insurance ads.

Nature is healing. ❤️‍🩹
Was really looking forward to Thailand/DevCon, but @heavygweit and I have so much work to do. It just doesn’t make sense.

Traveling and being social feels like a big distraction compared to our greater mission.
How it feels to no longer work on user onboarding
New iPhone means new keyboard ML training. I’m giving up lowercasing everything sorry if it’s too loud :(
@andywon.eth brought up a really good point today in standup that the market is being too inefficient with new grad opportunities.

something to think about..
yesterday was my 2 year anniversary of joining Farcaster!

i was at the gym in SoHo when i onboarded and saved my account details to a passkey.

it was really simple, and i was excited to show my friend, who also thought it was cool.

the community was small and intimate, and we only needed each other.
doing authentication engineering onchain and by hand is tedious needlework, but it's actually a lot of fun lol.

i was inspired by @stephancill (and almost everything he explores ofc), and now i have perspective/autonomy that will never be taken away.
channeling this energy today
turns out woodworking and programming aren’t so different after all 😔
