The interesting thing is that AI is probably going to cause an economic crash either way. Either it causes millions and millions of people to become unemployed, or it ends up being mostly hype and then the stock market implodes. Can't wait to see which it is. https://x.com/RubenHssd/status/1931389580105925115

This isn't just a shifting "norm" or "custom" or "culture." It's a form of retardation. https://x.com/lauren_wilford/status/1930002483952398473

I saw one of these guys at the market the other day. Looked to be around 50 years old. Tan cargo pants. Black shirt. Long flowing blonde/gray pony tail. It stopped me in my tracks. Like seeing an animal that you know had long gone extinct. I immediately knew he had an opinion on hard disk rotation speeds. An immense feeling of nostalgia and loss for a certain type of guy and a bygone era. https://x.com/ChrisJBakke/status/1929954436744655276

"Yeah I was there in the warpcast days" will now make you the coolest person in the room. Use this power wisely.

I'm really not sold on the idea that AI chatbots will replace search. The vast majority of things I use search for do not have definitive answers. They are things that lack clear consensus. Most of the time I am looking to gather various data points, perspectives, studies, and research papers so that I can form my own personal consensus. I have never found chatbots good for this purpose. A chatbot is essentially like talking to one person. And while that one person may provide me with various sources and perspectives, it isn't like consulting those original sources and perspectives directly. A certain amount of editorializing/consensus is still built into the experience. Occasionally there will be something that is more clear cut and a simple answer from a chatbot suffices. This is why the blended version that Google offers with its gemini-powered AI overview works so well and why I currently think Google's UX is currently winning this. Change my mind. https://x.com/gregisenberg/status/1924468459297009829

The cartridge-blowing nostalgia memes are for the N64 cartridges now? It's over for millennialcels.

They say that during a gold rush you should be the one selling the shovels. Get ready for an ergonomic walk and talk solution that will blow your mind.

I'm a little late to this but here's my bull case/bear case. Bear: This isn't an amazingly innovative or groundbreaking idea, so it seems like if it was going to be a game changer they would've done it a long time ago. Feels more like desperation. Like picking some old things up from the cutting room floor. Perhaps a way to hide trouble in paradise. Also, the idea that people are dying to find more services and "experiences" to spend their money on just feels very 2010s millennial vibes. Bull: As the economy deteriorates more, people will be looking for new ways to make side income through gig work and side hustles. Airbnb's existing market share will instantly make it the central marketplace for people who don't want to do Uber or Doordash. The problem with this bull case is that if the economy does in fact deteriorate, who's going to pay for all the services and experiences? The top ten percent will not float the entire economy forever. Rating: Mostly Bear https://x.com/bchesky/status/1922364651775385999

Farcaster is Tony Robbins as social network. Discuss.

Gm. Happy Mother's Day to the mothers.

I just tried to spend this monad at Target and they called security. Please advise.

There needs to be a word for a false debunking, where the debunking is the actual lie.

Gm. China Beach, San Francisco.

I've always been triggered by people calling Capicola "gabagool" so this has been a particularly trying time for me

I definitely believe in second chances for people. But you need to be open about your mistakes and let others have the ability to make the judgements for themselves. People will usually respect you for that. It is itself a demonstration of growth. There are also certain things you can't come back from, at least for a specific role, function, or capacity. That is normal and proper as well.

Gm. Imagine seeing Warren Buffet still sharp, lucid, and vibrant as ever at 94 and not deciding to drink at least one Coca-Cola every day.

So if I'm understanding this correctly, it is normal and common for development teams in the crypto tech space to be completely anonymous to one another? Like you don't know each other's names or anything? Really?

I think Michelle Obama has been extremely online for eight years with the rest of us, not sure how to explain it otherwise.
