Whole thing stinks of psyop, Adams cleaned up the city substantially, then woops all of a sudden not a Democrat anymore. It's not that simple.

Popcorn ready.

People responding to this seriously are why we don't deserve better psyops.

Testing and working on a demo for a new CLINK spec, CLINK Manage

Was also planning to revisit the deployment story and services for Lightning.Pub Umbrel/Start9 but haven't started in earnest and now my Umbrel VM just shit the bed out of the blue

It's not a source, intuition is the source. The video articulates some things for people without such intuition.

Orgs poured billions into shitcoins too, all hoaxes. Doesn't require a conspiracy, people are just retarded.

Reality is there's no tangible quantum supremacy to prove the concept, it's just a story that's dragged on for decades without material progress. Handwaving that it could happen in the future is capitulation to this fact, aliens could visit and gift us such magic, but that's not a realistic roadmap.

Some consistent demonsterable undeniable quantum supremacy that illuminates the path to scaling the impossible

Which part?

You're fudding a computing hoax going back to the 70's thats still not doing anything, yea you're a real expert

Coherence of the number of qubits needed to crack a signing key is exactly as achievable as brute forcing it, it's a scam, same difficulty with new wording

And who are you exactly? Just because your ego wants to believe it can solve a problem doesn't make the problem real. I'll call out your delusions as I see fit, scammer.

Such a quantum threat would also be a quantum miner, making key-cracking superfluous.

The quantum hoax? just posted a link to a decent video on it

To put it even more simply though that scaling the number of qubits needed to crack a key is fundamentally no different than directly cracking the key... its all just scammer word games to explain why it doesn't work and they need more money for R&D... scammers in Bitcoin then ride the FUD train.

lol

I agree with your assessment, nice chart.

I do think there are some people starting to share my epiphany in that AI is the new UI. The shift in investment from foundational models to wrappers is indicative of this, plus all the helpers being baked into chat bots and things like MCP... LLM's are just a new way of calling real API's without a front-end designer to mediate that with the user. That's the enlightenment imo.

No, this is just as retarded as covenants, worse in fact ... They go hand in hand

This is an attempt to normalize forced upgrades

Quantum is a hoax

Mechanically speaking, LLM's are literally just auto-complete. They cannot reason, they cannot create new information, they can't even verify information, literally all they do is approximate the next characters ("output tokens") based on tokens they've already read.

To the extent they are "getting worse" is because of recursion to emulate thinking and reasoning, stretching out the approximations even further (increasing entropy).

This is fact not opinion, there's really nothing more to discuss about their abilities. Therefore, all the articles in the world about the limitations/possibilities/future of AI that are not rooted in understanding of this fact are noise.

So why do most people treat them as magic? What's the grounds for the hype? And why so many indignant articles about how retarded they are?

The author seems to understand this, so who is he preaching to?

I think the beef isn't with LLM's, but the expectations that have been set by people in the industry as they push products in search of use-cases to recover the fire hose of money thrown at them.

It's another technology hype-bust cycle, one disillusioned author at a time, lamenting and coping that it can't do what they believed it could.

There's historical stuff that will help you understand what others are saying and conventions, but economics is an intuitive thing in each specific circumstance and not a proper science. It's the confluence of an incalculable number of variables.

Every "economist" is grifting and making shit up as they go. Some of the dumbest things you'll ever read come from FT/The Economist/BI/WSJ/Mises Institute, ~Econ sub, and so on.

Don't try to understand economics, try to understand history.

John Law and Hayek provide a good foundational mix of both.

Can confirm. Also there's no such thing as a printer that doesn't suck. Given that...

A cheap (second hand even) deskjet you can get refilled carts for... mine is almost 15 years old and if it dies I won't care if I have to replace it because they're cheap, plentiful and easy enough for my wife to deal with.

You have to be naive not to think like that, it's a virtue signal to insist you've transcended the laws of the universe.

Politics is downstream of the intersection of biology and spirituality... it's in all things, the yin and yang, the double helix in your DNA, universal expansion/contraction, chaos and order, the pendulum of time... whatever you want to call it, literally everything settles somewhere between a left-right spectrum. Balance is achieved only through oscillation.

Bitcoin, as a resistant immutable predictable thing, is on the order side of the chaos and order spectrum. Retarded as these people may be, they recognize the pendulum is swinging back against them.

Sounds to me like these moonbats have started to figure out the game theory of USAID and the Cantillon exploit, but don't like it when it's used against them

Slop summary:

This podcast episode, "Crypto vs Democracy: How Bitcoin Billionaires Are Buying Congress," discusses the growing political influence of the cryptocurrency industry in the United States. The speakers, Gil Duran, Molly White, and Dave Troy, argue that crypto has become a political machine with the goal of influencing regulations and politicians from both parties.

Here are the key takeaways from the discussion:

Crypto as a Political Force: The speakers contend that the crypto industry is not just about digital currency but is actively working to reshape the American financial system by influencing regulators and politicians. They link the movement's origins to anti-government sentiment.

Origins and Ideology: The episode traces the origins of cryptocurrency back to the 2008 financial crisis and the creation of Bitcoin. Initially, the ideology was anti-establishment and skeptical of government and bank intervention. However, the speakers note a shift, with the industry now aligning more with right-wing politics and influential figures like Donald Trump.

Political Influence: The discussion highlights how crypto-backed political action committees are spending millions to influence elections, often targeting Democrats. The goal is to achieve favorable regulations and "regulatory capture" of the U.S. regulatory system.

Dangers and Future Implications: The speakers warn of a "runaway Ponzi scheme" where the increasing value of crypto is used to gain more regulatory control, potentially harming the traditional economy. They also express concern about the integration of crypto with the traditional financial system, which could lead to future financial crises if not properly regulated. They emphasize the need for politicians to understand the potential risks of crypto and to defend existing financial structures.

It's a practical question to distill the essence of said technology. It's only through this framing that we can understand Bitcoins properties, pro-property rights, anti-censorship, meritocratic "proof of work" / anti-egalitarian... To be neutral is milquetoast, ineffective, and therefore worthless.

Emotional blackmail, that's all they have left.
