If you’re wondering why matcha is stealing coffee’s spotlight lately, this chart says it all.

I sparred 12 full rounds yesterday on oculus quest 2.
incredibly cathartic experience, emotional man.
I quit sparring after I had a concussion 7y ago but I still train hard cause I love the sport, now I can fight again.
Thrill of the fight 2 added networked multiplayer in their latest beta, it’s really good, and most of the people playing are fighters, you can tell by their movements. Incredible.

for ex: compare the cognitive load using self checkout vs ordering from a human
the latter is far easier – declarative and direct, zero eye hand coordination or ui to understand

def some “software content creator” opportunities out there.
short experiments or viral apps using new apis, make all code open source and explained.
kinda like dev rel but less demo and more short experiences with viral mechanics and not stuck with one company’s apis.
Less “talking about software” like theo or prime gen and more building small, complete artifacts you can play with.
lots of ways to monetize: using sponsored apis in an app, ads, direct thru any app built, etc at worst you build distro and public good will and recognition to get any gig.

Damn shame openai couldn’t do the ico sam wanted to.
All things equal could have been one of the defining catalysts for crypto. Aligns well with their original mission and silver lining for the masses getting disrupted.
Instead they have a 300b private eval.

one downside of formal education is it tends to teach you there are answers to things.
before I was properly educated I relied more on gut and whatever made sense from my own life experience. that’s all I had and needed.
after university I became skeptical of my experience and a believer in reproducible science which is often contradicting to n=1 personal experience.
result is more uncertainty: “is this the correct choice? Do I know enough to choose this? what unknown unknowns are there?”.

kid pays with her only two coins and receives the item and some change.
she’s ecstatic.
she now has item and *five* coins.
scarcity is a psyop.

I am hiring Farcaster devs.
As context, I’m the former CTO of Coinbase. While there I drove our transformation from a four asset company (BTC, ETH, BCH, LTC) to the infinite asset backend Coinbase has now. I also championed and led the USDC launch at Coinbase, taking it from $0 to $1. And worked closely with @dwr.eth, who has been a friend for 10+ years.
So, if you want to build real crypto products — not gambling, not vaporware — come work with us. I think Farcaster is exceptionally underrated as a protocol and want to use it as the backbone for a new kind of crypto-first school.
To motivate: imagine if every problem you solved in college doubled as a portfolio piece — as a *proof-of-learning* NFT added to your public ENS.
That would build a new kind of AI-proof verifiable resume. And that is what we want to build on Farcaster. So, come work with us!

Evolving my voice playground to have good voice activity detection, aka vad.
I was using a basic heuristic, "was quiet for 500ms" but it's too aggressive and cuts you off while you're thinking. That really bothers me about openai's implementation.
The proper way is a model that understands what you're saying and if you finished a complete thought, aka semantics. So I'm experimenting with that but the catch is it has to be low latency (< 500ms).
So I found a couple lightweight models that can run in the browser like Silero, it compresses down to 2mb, you can run it in via the ONNX runtime.

What’s your favorite filter bubbles outside of crypto, ai, and longevity?
Things on my mind:
1. Drastically reducing 3rd party info intake. It’s low quality, inaccurate and turns you into a puppet.
2. Cryptos core principles remain inspiring; I still love Ethereum; but building in it can feel bleak.
3. The year is 25% over. What did you get done?

been snooping the network for a handful of voice apps, always fun.
unsurprisingly, all the fast voice are using webrtc, it’s the only way to do udp on the browser stack right now.

built a playground to mess with ai voice infra this week, goal is to see how natural and quick i can get it.
