Using Jargon CLI in Jargon v0.2.0
The Jargon CLI is a new feature of Jargon: it is a command line shell that works with the OpenAI API and allows you to experiment with Jargon programs quickly. You can try it out in v0.2.0 at the Jargon Github repoInstallationTo install it, simply use pip:$ cd gpt-jargon $ pip install . For the CLI to be able to access your LLM, make sure your OPENAI_API_KEY environment variable is set. The default model used is gpt-4, but you may want to use an alternative model with the --model option (or t...

How to bring blockchain to market
If I were to try to bring blockchain to market all over again, I would do it completely differently. I would realize that mainstream users are absolutely not ready to shift their internet paradigm. Instead, they have to have their world Trojan horsed by decentralization technologies, bottom up, inside out. I would still start with cryptocurrencies. Digital asset capital formation is key to sustainability of the space, and we need a strong base of aligned technical users and traders to fight t...
