Imo, Warpcast is the reference for what can be done with the farcaster protocol. WC is not necessarily what should be done, nor should it be an actual destination. The time here, for these early years, has just been participation in a bootstrap program. If FC fails to takeoff, the bootstrap failed. If it does take off, bootstrap will have succeeded. I don’t know what happens to WC in each of those cases, seems like it can go either way indifferently.

I don’t believe the future of social looks like engaging in social through a social app.

Cuban applying hilariously inaccurate logic is impressive. It’s a textbook correlation is not causation moment

The cat decided to sleep in a tree last night, at least she has survival skills because she was still there for her morning rescue

The amount of time required to raise money, if put into building product instead, means you won’t need to believe this shit about customers being hard to find.

Don’t raise money, to build a product. Raise a product to build revenue.

Gary Marcus argues that LLMs aren’t as good as a calculator based on their inconsistencies. I’m not convinced the tool Gary is thinking about is the same tool as what an LLM is useful for. It could be true that his ideal model is absolutely better but based on the way he’s so afraid of things given the words he uses, I doubt it

The critical mistake in the US not keeping pace with TSMC in chip production was to not leapfrog the silicon wafer. You can get behind another nation on a tech and still catch up or surpass, but you can't do it with the same core tech. That would be like trying to catch up to Kobe playing his game.

If your product/service metrics don’t relate to improving quality, your product is already dead

If you don’t consider probability or statistics as a value in motion, you’re likely to interpret the meaning incorrectly

The way I got into tech was through conferences, not as an attendee but as a volunteer. What’s interesting about conferences is that the people there who are truly getting shit done, show up for the one thing they need and then leave as fast as possible. Aside from hackathons, everything else is just a vacation.

Short walk to and from a friends wedding last night

The reason customer support is likely to be the first major disruption, is because customer support sucks so bad already, what’s to lose?

Joint ventures and revenue sharing models are criminally under utilized. The incredible works of private infrastructure are almost always joint ventures with revenue sharing in some way, and yet in tech the concepts seem to be almost entirely absent

If you want real customers and you would use your product, then just be yourself on the call. If you swear, swear, if you’re polite, be polite, if you wear suits, wear a suit, just be you.

If you’re not you, and you get the sale, the customer sucks, you bought them, or the product sells itself in which case, good job. The other two are going to zero

Some warmup, just moving, every rep was different, zero consistency. Have you ever gotten to do a perfect rep outside of the gym? No. So don’t train like you will. Move, move well, move with strength, move with endurance, but above all move your body. It’s insanely capable if you give it the attention it deserves

Just for fun, did another set of zurchers with a 35lb kb on the left side and a 53lb on the right side (because I’m short on plates) this is 273lbs

Why? Because you need to be strong in any position your body can get into, not just the perfect positions

Some morning zurchers

In defense of PHP, this is actually a rather clean and readable structure to program something. It’s the toolchain and error logs that I’m left scratching my head on the most so far

Scott Galloway: I don’t hate them I hate their unions
Kara Swisher: Oh okay, basically the same thing

NO, no it’s not. Do not accept anyone who claims that disliking an [insert human concept] is equivalent to disliking the human

The total surface area of mitochondria in your cells is equivalent to about 14,000 meters^2 or 4 football fields…🤯

GPT o1, so far, sucks for code as far as I can tell. It’s insanely verbose and goes off the rails just as fast, but now for longer, than previous models. It has been awesome for conceptual brainstorming and system architecture. I much prefer Claude 3.5 or gpt 4, I’ll take 4o for boiler plate specifically

Anyone else writing code having better experiences with o1 preview?

I think I would enjoy php and Wordpress if I could just replace Wordpress and php for react
