Selfhosting a lot of stuff like calendars, contacts, Git, etc. instead of using cloud services is nice.

Except sometimes it breaks. Over time, everything breaks.
And then sometimes you realize you skipped testing the recovery scenario just for this specific part.
Aaargh.

Pffft, and today I've just got a reminder why I selfhost so much stuff.
(Apart from the habits from the old times where I had my own hosting provider)

TIL there are at least eight people born with DNA combined from three parents already.

Do you have a spare fusion reactor? 
They can be modded to transmute mercury into gold as well :)

Regular (fission) nuclear reactors won't work, unless you happen to have a fast neutron-producing "breeder" one.

Please share photos of your project when finished!

ok nice thanks it's not the first time I hear that but how do I monetize this?

advice is welcome!

I am a vampire cooling everything I enter to an absolute zero. 
0 degrees Kelvin. 0 humans inside 😆

Is there a newer book/brochure/post series similar to "Distributed systems for fun and profit" in spirit that is compact, approachable in the same way and still covers all fundamentals?

you won't hear stories like this from 
OpenAI or Anthropic because they are trying to look invincible, but this is how cutting edge AI development looks behind the scenes

plot twist: a group of trolls dropping conspiracy theories carefully grounded in real research papers

theory one:
birds aren't real but they are watching you

forgetting prescription medicine you /need/ to take 3 times daily when departing to the trip with tightly packed schedule sucks. 
try to avoid if possible

farcaster really needs moderation tools for large groups. 

like readonly roles, slowmode, etc 
tagging @dwr.eth though i suspect they are already cooking this :)

I seek the keys to doors that lead to more keys.
I shall accept what I find;
I shall release what no longer serves.

Introducing $PROCOIN, the community-led governance token for Farcaster Pro users.

All 10k NFT holders are eligible for an airdrop.

But there’s a twist.

**The token will be untransferable until 500 Pro users claim.**

In order to get a mandate as a community token, we need broad support.

To claim, quotecast this post with the text “Ratifying @procoin governance”

All 10k NFT holders are eligible, but the first 500 claimers will receive ~5x the allocation.

good news: in past 3 weeks, I've finished going thru my backlog of notes (thousands)

bad news: now I have to do something on the ~300 I just labeled as "still relevant/actionable" 🙈

I got tired of AI puppets everyone calls "agents", followed the lead of Nous Research and made a bit more autonomous pet rock. 
This time without OpenAI and with entire LLM in the TEE.

how does one learn to routinely get up before the sunrise? trying for about a month already. 

anytime in daylight (eg. 5am in the summer) is easy, but waking up while it’s still dark seems next to impossible :/
