social

ye once observed that opening your phone to socials first thing in the morning lets everyone else program you. ditto emails. 

the first step is recognizing. i’ll be trying to wait to look at socials going forward. 

won’t always succeed, but i’m finding twitter is rather anxiety inducing, because of the rhetorical style the algo has biased for. 

having agency means protecting mental state from distraction.

A very important read. (Palantir bias aside)

Reminds me a lot of the conversations I have with @jihad, it’s increasingly important to recognize what to build and why.

It’s weird to be hyper connected to the Ethereum community IRL, while being disconnected from the Internet and wondering what’s happening in Ethereum today.

Books

Day 11: The Age of Gold 

This was great fun. The writing is good, it’s packed with exciting adventure, and it’s got enough history to feel substantial.

More than I expected, a lot of it echoes the tech industry: the frenetic energy, SF as the center of the universe, cycles of boom and bust. Even the $10 cups of coffee. 

It’s the early history of California through the lens of gold prospecting, but it’s also a set of warnings about our own time. 

If you’re new to the Bay Area, I especially recommend reading this. Even if you’re not, it’s worth adding to your list. It’d make a great book for an international flight. If nothing else, it’ll make you grateful that you don’t have to cross the Darien Gap on foot. 

Four stars for its type, but only because its type is so stacked.

Day 12: Dispatches 

A semi-cohesive collection of spectacular gonzo flavored Vietnam War semi-journalism. 

Chaotic neutral on the war book alignment chart. The author worked on the scripts for Apocalypse Now and Full Metal Jacket and this book has a lot of that energy. 

It also created lot of the vibe and a lot of the tropes that show up consistently in other Vietnam War movies. 

It’s heavy on absurdity and you constantly feel like anything could happen, but it never gets too disorienting. If you read it in a single sitting, you’d spend the next week talking like Dennis Hopper’s character from Apocalypse Now. 

Five stars. Definitive work

Farcaster

why don’t people form small groups (3-5) around an interest, create a channel, and cast/reply to each other? 

it could:
1. amplify reach (shared audiences)  
2. create richer, more dynamic discussions (shared effort)
3. build deeper connections  

maybe it feels like extra work or it’s hard to find each other?

been thinking about channels ever since @ted posted this

how does farcaster reward people for going deeper on a subject? how does it incentivize @matthewb to share about drinking chocolates or @keccers.eth to go deep on her health stack?

basically…i want to replace my reddit searches with farcaster searches
