Been slowly becoming more willing to integrate more and more ai things into my workflows. I still think people aren't doing anything useful with openclaw but I am certainly not at my maximum potential of using ai to assist me in things
NEW YARDS 🌳 "I Just Wanna Complain" is me...complaining. I've been at it for a long time and sometimes it doesn't feel recognized. Gotta shake that off tho.
Imagine that there’s a lake, and someone says “I’m gonna put 100 boats in this lake” & in the excitement around boats getting into this empty lake more and more people commit to also buying boats, totaling to over 500 boats in the lake. They buy boat after boat after boat until the lake is now full. Instead of building a system that could successfully hold 500 or more boats, they found it helpful to just throw money at the boats instead of recognizing that the problem is the lake as unable to all those accommodate boats effectively, and now none of the folks in the boats are having a good time. I’m happy boat sellers are able to get their boats off, but I fear they may never sell another.
This is how I feel about the $500k+ earmarked to purchasing NFTs.
I think what’s happening is we’re conflating conversations about art & artists with conversations about the art market.
They’re 2 very different conversations with different sets of characters, and while there are overlaps, we may need to better recognize that they’re separate.
NEW YARDS 🌳 "Never Lose" is about how if you believe you'll never lose, then you won't...and how that belief is contagious, leading to greater outcomes.
Here comes the “I know what the problem with creator coins is” crowd now that Vitalik said something about em. Also everyone who gives an opinion will be a non-creator who is prolly just a founder or trader trying to make money from coins
Yards 🌳 this week, "Troubled Times", reflects on the changes with Sound, Nifty Gateway, Foundation, Farcaster, TBA & everything else not only being really bad for creators in web3, but I don't see a path to recovery
Aiming to rate (at least) a dozen NFTs a day on $FIVESTAR. Today I'm in the OG @foundation shared contract flipping through random ones.

Upped to USB Club for the first time in a while. The idea of a gated file sharing network that requires you to use a specific USB drive to access is just…so good.
Thinking a lot about how good it is to produce my own music. Feels like through sample and sound selection, I'm able to say things that are either hard to say, would take too long, or are impossible to say through lyrics.
NEW YARDS 🌳 "Simple Complexity" is about how our ideas are complex but we need to bring people into them through simpler methods, or they'll be overwhelmed or never understand them.
