so few things are worth protecting anymore. not sure if its a sign of the times thing or just an age thing

gotta make my next moves my best moves

i dont care much for this pretending we’re back where we started. i want to know where we are, where we’re going

all systems reflect the conditions under which they were crafted

biggest mistakes i ever made were just me doubting myself

stale information still counts as information imo

everyone seems to define the rate of learning by the rate at which they consume information (e.g. reading a book) but a more important metric is the rate at which you update your priors

whats the point in consuming a bunch of information where at the end, nothing you already knew was falsified?

the behavioural palette for most people ranges from in between insanity that you can notice and insanity that you cant notice

most people let the world make them forget what they really want

its good for your mental health to run the occasional victory lap

most people only like to work on things that are recognizably hard, as opposed to working on things that fundamentally need to be solved. sometimes there is overlap, and we should consider ourselves lucky when that is the case

“Once you’ve done what you had to, they’ll never let you do what you want to”

sometimes i want to delete everything blockchain related on my computer and then throw it away and just go work on a farm or something idk

had shit playing on shuffle today and this album came on. i used to listen to it a lot during a very high stress time in my life. lots of memories in this one. such a unique sound to associate these memories to.

🎶 “and we probably share a trait or two. but i cant see what i cant relate to” 🎶

excited about this one

strobe by deadmau5 is such a masterpiece track

used to think that the whole lower your time preference shtick from btc maxis was mostly an op but honestly a lot of things can be explained very simply by understanding that most people really do have high time preferences (either out of choice or out of necessity)

the slowed + reverb version of paranoid by ye is on repeat and i have no intention of shifting tracks 🎵
