Frank Herbert's Dune should be treated as a philosophical text, not a mere work of fiction.

A stated vs. revealed preferences problem plagues some brands of modern-day feminism. An example: criticizing traditional gender roles while showing admiration for men who display certain qualities associated with traditional gender roles (e.g., women love "strong men" trope) and dismissing those w/o said qualities.

So something people will say is "Lots of people are self-diagnosing with ADHD even if they don't have it" (which makes them skeptical in general). Even I got told "Well, I also struggle with distraction and I don't need meds" by many friends when I received my diagnosis. It's easy to misdiagnose people with ADHD becau...
I always wanted to know if I had adhd, it seems like I have some “symptoms” but I am also paranoid of self-diagnosing (I think false positives more likely than false negatives esp with self diagnosis?)

This post from @sdv.eth hit harder than I expected. You won't understand the pain behind "Where did I go wrong?" unless you've lived with the experience of trying and failing to manage ADHD. ADHDers are some of the most determined and resourceful people you'll meet, which means you can bet we'll try everything to get ...
Anyone who’s dealt with ADHD long enough: has it ever gotten easier? I feel like since becoming aware of the symptoms the struggle has only worsened, despite always considering myself decently self-aware. I don’t know if it’s just the compounding responsibilities of work, marriage, parenthood, and adulthood. Or if it

Every time I see someone make fun of ADHD and suggest it's fake, or a conspiracy by Big Pharma to sell medication, I get mad all over again. This thing is very real and the people who suffer from it wouldn't wish on their worst enemies.

The more insidious effect of RSD is *anticipating* rejection so much that you end up not doing really simple things--like asking for a favor (or just asking for things more generally). If you're a founder--meaning you need to ask for things frequently--you can imagine how RSD complicates things.
Rejection sensitivity is a common symptom of ADHD, a difficulty regulating your emotional response to feelings of rejection (think: constructive criticism from your boss; friends hanging out without you). I always thought it was a personal moral failing. https://youtu.be/jM3azhiOy5...

Markets are down. It's the time to dust of philosophy books and start tweeting about convinction and philosophical ideas. Gotta love this industry.

My Farcaster conspiracy theory is that the small pause in between clicking "cast now" and your post going live serves a different purpose. On Twitter, you can send 150 tweets per minute and get lost in the adrenaline rush. But FC forces you to think about your life in between casts. You can take those 15 seconds whil...

@vitalik.eth wrote a really great blog post on the issue of aligning w/ pro-crypto candidates. Unsurprisingly, yours truly caught the writing bug and wrote a long response to V's post on X. The original thread is now available to read as a blog: hackmd.io/@emmanuel-aw.... Enjoy!

This is something everyone in Ethereum should read imo. You hear so many ideas that are indistinguishable from religious beliefs and have to come acquire some air of infallibillity. People turn around and look like you just questioned the Bible in church when you try to question them.
religious beliefs in technology, crypto, etc are some of the most nefarious they’re often rooted in an good, value-oriented impulse, but once enough ppl to form an in group believe the thing and want to memetically signal their belief/choice to others, things get irrational/stupid quick

Might start saying some random things about writing on Farcaster so I'm not copy-pasting content from Twitter. #1: Writing is a good way of understanding myself and the world around me. I can understand my thoughts and beliefs better when I put them into writing.

Moderating my first panel at EthCC was great, but meeting Vitalik IRL was even better.
