I’ve been thinking a lot about how technology keeps replacing people.
So I built something new.
It’s a calculator app where, instead of a machine solving 3 + 5, a real person somewhere in the world does it by hand and sends you the answer.
That’s it.
You type the equation.
Someone calculates it.
You pay them.
No AI. No automation. Just humans helping humans.

"We have to create culture, don't watch TV, don't read magazines, don't even listen to NPR. Create your own roadshow. The nexus of space and time where you are now is the most immediate sector of your universe, and if you're worrying about Michael Jackson or Bill Clinton or somebody else, then you are disempowered, you're giving it all away to icons, icons which are maintained by an electronic media so that you want to dress like X or have lips like Y. This is #-brained, this kind of thinking. That is all cultural diversion, and what is real is you and your friends and your associations, your highs, your orgasms, your hopes, your plans, your fears. And we are told 'no', we're unimportant, we're peripheral. 'Get a degree, get a job, get a this, get a that.' And then you're a player, you don't want to even play in that game. You want to reclaim your mind and get it out of the hands of the cultural engineers who want to turn you into a half-baked moron consuming all this trash that's being manufactured out of the bones of a dying world."

My favorite combination of 6 English words.
Have you tried pubpay? Have you seen my articles about it? What you seen what we've been doing at conferences?
Have you tried chain duel? Did you know I'm the only person in the world that has a project that was invited to every relevant bitcoin conference?
Your friendship is already a big support.
Financially, you can zap me, pay me,
Or we accept sponsorships to help make chain duel reach more people.

I agree, grant chasing skews incentives in OSS, humans naturally respond to these incentives. And while survivor bias is real, it’s great that some of them actually make it.
