Yes. I'm lucky having a piece of land to grow my own food. It is very satisfying. Although this year I have not been able to do as much as I wanted. It is a lot of work but I love it. And it is rewarding. Tomatoes that taste like actual tomatoes :)
I'm planting new tomatoes and did a lot of maintenance work in the garden and greenhouse. Does it count? I don't know how many steps but my tomatoes seem happy :)
It all starts to smell like a bubble full of promises and promises. AGI is very different from LLMs. And all they seem to do is to keep improving LLMs a bit each time. I don't think that's the path to AGI. Yet they convince investors to put billions into this.
I always found strange that they released these LLM tools without any warning and any user could use them without knowing the tool first.
I wonder if some people have already really died because of LLMs.
It was called democracy. It could be dying.
If you start that path of giving more vote power to someone then you could end up just wanting to skip the voting all together. People with very voting power would not want to participate because it would be irrelevant.
Scare some weak hands before the big rally to 300k?
We know there are quantum resistant crypto algorithms that bitcoin could use so for now it is not a worry but they just may have to say that for legal reasons.

Being extremely rich. Constant fear for safety and family members safety. Or not knowing if someone is talking to you nicely or want to be friends because they want some of your money or a favor.
Normally one just have to invest in the opposite side of whatever they say on TV. This is very important. So does it mean we now have to sell Bitcoin then? Argh... Noooooooo
I am recently thinking a lot about this decline too specially because I'm seeing it in my own family with rapid decline and it is very sad to see. They don't realize. They make the usual jokes about age and such but I'm sure they are not very aware of the extent of the problem. Even simple problems become huge. And it reminds me that while I still feel great I have only a small number of good years left and that is counting that I would not get any other illness.
Make the most of your youth. It goes fast later.
I was thinking of buying a new car but I may just fix my old one. I want a car without touch screens and without internet. I think I may be getting old but car companies are the worst. It is not just Toyota.
Markets are just dominated by AI machines that continuously move the price very effectively to whatever price their owners want according to their insider information from politicians and other influential sources.
Ok but it is harder than it was. I didn't need a course before. I did the DMARC and DKIM. At least I keep trying. Everyone else I know personally just use external services and in the same way, not self custodial wallets. It is a bit similar situation I guess.
I remember many years ago when it was so cool to build your own server and have your own mail system installed on your domain and use it to send and receive emails. Today it is so difficult. They have basically centralized email.
I remember also when it was so cool and easy to install your own bitcoin node and use it freely. 2025. Let's see in some years....
Just a thought. I still run my email servers, but it is a pain. I never know if a message is going to reach destination. Bitcoin node is still easy. but LN is more difficult for me.
It’s going to get even faster and faster. So much faster that we won't understand. Once we connect our brains to AI directly via neuronal links, it’s going to change everything forever. I was a very enthusiastic child about computers and technology growing up. But now? now I’m scared. Not everything has to be bad, but many things will be. Very easy accessibility to technologies that would have been science fiction in the past, and not all humans want to use technology for the good
“Clients are increasingly cautious about starting projects due to uncertainty over future trends in interest rates and building materials costs, as well as the potential for an economic slowdown,”
I can't blame them. Totally understandable. Uncertainty is the worst enemy for markets and the economy. And high interest rates on top of that without a clear path? Not helpful. Let’s see employment numbers tomorrow. Could be the final signal for a recession.
