Hugo -

So I decided to scratch everything I've done so far and rebuild the reading app as a native macOS app. The idea is that everything can be stored and run locally, including RAGing your documents, etc. For context, I am tinkering with the idea of a "cursor for reading", an app that multiplies how much you learn and get out of your reading. I've never built a native app so not sure if I'll get away with it, let's see!

Cross posting this here in case anyone’s curious. Would love to hear your thoughts! https://farcaster.xyz/schezhugo/0x29b239c1

Hey @linda, I’m building this and wondering if it might be helpful for your physics learning. Would you be up to trying it? It’s very inspiring to follow your physics journey. https://farcaster.xyz/schezhugo/0x29b239c1

I'm tinkering with the idea of a "cursor for reading" and looking for people that might want to help me test it out. Hoping to have something ready by the end of next week. Hit me up if you'd be up for it!

I just installed Conductor and I am excited

I'm going to be in SF the second week of Feb, anyone I should meet? I'm also going to be at ETH Denver btw

New World Disorder

What are some of the most interesting governance experiments happening in crypto right now? I’m not taking about dramas, but actual new protocols/setups being tried. Would love to read more about it! cc @yitong

There is something at the intersection of Hegel, McLuhan and Baudrillard. It’s this idea that we’ve materialized a global consciousness, a mirror where reality reflects itself, turning everything into a never ending self-reflecting game. I wish I was able to articulated batter. /philosophy

Currently rocking my Roc camera through Morocco!

Let’s fucking go!! 🔥🔥🔥

I’ve been lucky enough to work with Andrew at Dune and he is a force of nature. Check out what they are building because it’s insane!

Kolin is an amazing photographer and is severely under followed in here!

Given the coins debate, here’s a mechanism that I think could make sense for higher effort artworks: 1- Mint artwork as a token with a bonding curve attached to it. Anyone can buy from it. 2- Allow users to “lock” their tokens in exchange for the NFT. 3- NFT represents the artwork as well as your position (how early you were and how much you bought). 4- Distribute trading fees to creator and lockers This way you encourage long-term holding and community building. Price is more predictable. Bonus point: locked eth earns yield such that game is non zero-sum anymore. Would love to get good feedback on this! Thoughts?

I touched some grass yesterday on a crazy hike in Alicante. So much awe!

I’m really enjoying the coins debate. I think it’s healthy and points at how much open design space there still is.

GM! How does one learn to plot? Where do one even begin?

Hey @jacob, using ZoraCoins SDK, would there be any limitations when it comes to the media mime type? I’m thinking of potentially building a simple client for long-form text articles using it. Mime types would be either text or application/json. Thanks!

Apparently the solution was just using Anthropic 🤷‍♂️

So I’ve spent my whole day today trying to figure out OpenAI API for a very simple use case: upload PDF file and return predefined key parameters from it - and have failed at it. How’s your day going?
