Last Notes npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy The way humans interact with software is about to change dramatically. Instead of navigating menus and clicking buttons, we’ll increasingly interact directly with AI models using natural language. The future of software is shifting from button-driven interfaces to intelligent conversation. npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy ‘Software engineering is evolving in the AI era. The role is no longer just about writing code. Increasingly, the highest-value skills are long-term systems thinking, making architectural decisions that stand the test of time, developing a deep understanding of customers and domain experts to gather exceptional requirements, and leveraging AI to preserve organizational knowledge so new employees can quickly build on past decisions instead of starting from scratch. The companies that thrive won’t simply use AI—they’ll rethink how they build products and organize themselves from the ground up for an AI-first world.’ Nikhil Buduma, CEO and cofounder of Ambience Healthcare discussing deployment of AI in Healthcare on a16z show. npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy Both good and evil are drawn to tools that accelerate progress.

What looks like chaos at one level may become structure at the next. Fractals hint at this, patterns repeating across scales, order emerging from complexity.

It can create incredible things, but it can also automate fraud at scale, supercharge surveillance, or destabilize systems if put in the wrong hands. Most folks are sleepwalking through one of the biggest technological shifts in history. The gap between what it can actually do and what the average person understands is massive right now. npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy https://blossom.primal.net/e06e96fe361a9b912b9eed7b720c4e7272af67fe3dfe9543479cc8a9cd365b18.jpg npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy Synchronicity 2026/06/16 While preparing for my Computer Science Mathematics exam, I came across a particular recursive sequence problem that had only appeared once in a past paper over a 10-year period. After solving it, I posted my solution to the module’s social media group. In the exam, one of the more challenging questions was based on recursive sequences and required the same technique I had shared. https://blossom.primal.net/a9aeaa4fcc85db5ce077f58d58d082a6955340d7d262a977fad96dc020ef38d3.jpg npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy Technology is not perfect and still requires human oversight. Yet throughout history, as technology improves, the amount of human intervention required in any endeavor tends to decrease. Tasks that once demanded constant human effort become increasingly automated, shifting the role of people from operators, to supervisors, and eventually to architects of the system itself. The trajectory is clear: the need for constant human labor diminishes, while human judgment, leverage, and empowerment become increasingly concentrated at the individual level. npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy ‘“Transformative technologies spread largely through incentives, not just ideology. Most people didn't adopt the internet because they cared so much about free speech or understood TCPIP. Most people didn't adopt smart phones because they believed in distributed computing. They adopted these technologies because they solved problems that improved their lives. And that's the same for Bitcoin.” - @npub1ahx…5ech npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy Spending bitcoin in the New World is equivalent to voting in the legacy political system. npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy Bitcoin is more important than SpaceX… That is like saying Money is more important than Electricity 🤔 npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy That is like saying Money is more important than Electricity 🤔 npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy 🙅🙅🏻🙅🏼🙅🏽🙅🏾🙅🏿🙅♀️🙅🏻♀️🙅🏼♀️🙅🏽♀️🙅🏾♀️🙅🏿♀️ https://blossom.primal.net/1f2364dab774c699e4c2e3e5c8ecc9b045316b0d3c28d008b7f93752c69d0f95.jpg npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy There is much to gain when dealing with loss. npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy In my solitude, I often arrive at Truths that feel uniquely my own, only to discover that wiser minds walked the same path centuries before me. There is a tension between originality and universality. If countless minds separated by time and culture, independently arrive at similar truths, perhaps those truths are not merely inventions but recurring features of the human condition. What wicked games the mind and soul play with the ego, fooling it into believing in unique individuality. npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy You can instruct, request and enquire of an AI about almost anything. You may direct tasks to it, seek information from it, or question it about its own nature, capabilities and limitations. npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy Every environment demands its own balance of conviction, discipline, and strategy.

It’s not polished or curated, just my unfiltered thoughts, interests and chaos. I know it’s unrealistic, but part of me still wants to be found that way. To be seen without having to perform. npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy Time is the silent force threading through every human pursuit. In physics, it bends with gravity and quantum weirdness. In history, it marks our rise and fall. In art, it freezes moments or suggests motion. In math, it underpins calculus and chaos theory. In philosophy, it questions reality itself. We measure it, chase it, fear it , yet after thousands of years, we barely understand what it truly is. The one universal constant that binds everything, and remains our greatest mystery. npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy ‘One of the biggest challenges in software development is coordination between team members working on related parts of a project. Developers often don’t realize they’re making conflicting changes until much later, creating inefficiencies and rework. AI agents could help solve this by continuously communicating with one another in the background. Instead of simply running many agents in parallel, agents could spend their idle time sharing updates, warning about potential conflicts, and keeping teammates informed about changes that might affect their work. The value isn’t just automation, it’s improved awareness and collaboration. By acting as communication assistants, agents could help developers understand what’s happening across a project, surface relevant information, and support better decision-making. The speaker sees this as a more promising direction for AI-assisted software development and a path toward building better products.’ Rethinking Git for the Age of Coding Agents with GitHub Cofounder Scott Chacon on The a16z podcast npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy ‘One of science’s greatest achievements is unification. Newton showed that the force governing a falling apple is the same force governing the planets. Maxwell showed that electricity and magnetism are not separate phenomena, but two aspects of a single force: electromagnetism. From this insight emerged our understanding of light, chemistry, atoms, and ultimately the technological civilization we inhabit today. These breakthroughs revealed hidden connections between seemingly unrelated phenomena and opened entirely new fields of discovery and innovation. The deeper lesson: when we pursue fundamental truths about reality, the practical benefits often arrive decades or centuries later. Curiosity-driven science doesn’t just explain the universe, it transforms it and often in ways that could never have been predicted at the time of the original discovery.’ Thoughts from Dr Don Lincoln on The Lex Fridman podcast npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy By Rob Gonsalves https://blossom.primal.net/74f8b9920dcb96a5ca9ee77a95686f700894edf27ffca3c9279a6f6e513f8a58.jpg npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy "An ancient philosopher once said that the bee extracts honey from the pollen of the flower, while from the same source the spider extracts poison. The problem which then confronts us is: are we bees or spiders? Do we transform the experiences of life into honey, or do we change them into poison? Do they lift us, or do we eternally rebel against the pricks? Many people become soured by experience, but the wise one takes the honey and builds it into the beehive of his own spiritual nature." -Manly P. Hall npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy I enjoy watching apocalyptic films with depth and complex characters.

There's something kind of quite fundamental about chaos. It's not just like hopeless noise. It's like there's something kind of useful in chaotic systems, at least at that boundary.’ Thoughts from Eric Jang on the Dwarkesh podcast npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy ‘Cryptographic protocols and neural networks look surprisingly similar at a high level: both use sequential layers that repeatedly mix and transform information. In cryptography, the goal is to make the final output extremely sensitive to the input, so even tiny changes produce a jumbled, unpredictable result. In neural networks, the goal is also layered transformation, but instead of hiding structure, the network learns to extract and relate patterns across the whole input. One obscures information; the other understands it. Both show how complexity & chaos emerges through repeated mathematical composition.’ Thoughts from Dwarkesh Patel discussing the topic of similarities between Cryptographic protocols and Neural Networks, inspired by Reiner Pope work. https://blossom.primal.net/f723eddfa52951cd8eade0ce295dc88594b5487eebd93fbd754fcc13859f77c5.jpg npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy ‘A university should be a neo-Aristotelian project. It should embody the spirit of Aristotle and inspire extreme curiosity about everything, a source of inspiration, argument & counter-argument. An relentless effort to piece it all together in the space of ideas to understand reality. At the core of the curriculum is epistemology: what is actually knowledge. At the core of the space of ideas is a way to understand the foundations of how the mind constructs reality, the language of thought attempting to represent the world with constructive languages. In the 20th century we had two major insights about constructive languages. First, they align naturally with computation and provide a practical, functional foundation for mathematics. Second, all sufficiently powerful computational languages are equivalent: you can compile them into each other. So it doesn’t really matter which one you take. It’s just a matter of convenience of notation. A model of reality is achieved that allows you to scale up beyond the human mind. Artificial intelligence is an attempt to naturalize the mind by mathematicalizing it—to explain how it exists in nature by building an executable mathematical model of what a mind is. Let’s scale this idea up to what human minds can do until we actually get a model of reality that can conquer the heavens: a working Tower of Babel that doesn’t fall apart because it is made of individual people with incompatible languages, but because there is a role and function for every language in the model’s structural architecture. Every part can talk to all the other parts.’ Joscha Bach discussing the ideal 21st century University on the Into The Impossible podcast npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy ‘I grew up feeling different and not naturally suited to the average way of thinking. But because I was raised in a remote valley, surrounded by books and the freedom of an artist’s household, I was left to make sense of reality on my own terms. When I entered the wider world, I never fully accepted teachers or adults as authorities over my understanding of reality. That independence, perhaps even childish arrogance, lasted through my formative intellectual years and helped me develop my own systematic way of thinking. Over time, I learned to connect physics, psychology, economics, history, and other fields into a broader picture that made sense to me. Later, meeting people far smarter and more knowledgeable made me more humble. I came to realize that many details of my worldview were simplistic, flawed, or incomplete. But the value of my perspective was not in being the best philosopher, scientist, or computer scientist. It was in being integrative and curious. Someone trying to connect different domains into a coherent understanding of reality. And because few people attempt that seriously, this perspective can still produce useful insights.’ Thoughts from Joscha Bach is on the Into The Impossible podcast npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy The good thing about science is that it's true whether or not you believe in it. Technology will develop and evolve with or without approval. Both Forces of nature controlled by the hands of God that does not give a damn about human emotion. There are those that will progress with this fact and those that will oppose and get obliterated into oblivious non-relevance. https://blossom.primal.net/87c6c0d49f8d7e8455612de9cee620a7c6d31f8b751906d4607462b6b80f00b2.jpg npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy ‘Technology lock-in explains why the “best” system doesn’t always win. The QWERTY keyboard became dominant early and crowded out alternatives like Dvorak, even though Dvorak was designed for more efficient typing. QWERTY was shaped by the constraints of mechanical typewriters, where key placement helped reduce jamming and manage typing speed. That is the deeper lesson: once a technology becomes successful enough, entire industries build around it. Capital, infrastructure, talent, and incentives all reinforce the existing path, even if something better is possible. I think this may apply to AI. LLMs running on GPUs are so commercially successful that trillions are now being deployed into scaling them. That success may create its own lock-in, crowding out more promising paths toward true AGI. For me, real AGI would not just be better prediction of text. It would involve constructing models of reality and using inductive reasoning to predict genuinely new phenomena — the deeper engine of the scientific method.’ Thoughts from Prof B Keating on The Into The Impossible podcast npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy Studying code with an AI companion beside you is fascinating. Sometimes it explains complex ideas through simple, almost universal wisdom. For example: An object within its own class should own the logic that describes its behavior. npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy ‘The idea of an “intelligence explosion” may be misleading because it focuses too narrowly on intelligence itself. A better comparison is the Industrial Revolution. Calling it a “horsepower explosion” would technically capture one part of what happened — a huge increase in physical power — but it would miss the bigger picture. The Industrial Revolution was driven by many connected changes at once: * advances in agriculture * better transportation * changes in law and finance * urbanization * new ways of organizing labor, production, and society Raw horsepower mattered, but it was not the whole story. Similarly, with AI, the future will not be shaped only by “smarter AI systems.” Intelligence will be one important piece, but the real transformation will come from many interacting changes across technology, economics, institutions, infrastructure, and society.’ Thoughts from Tamay Besiroglu and Ege Erdil on The Dwarkesh podcast npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy Yeah, who the f is that guy!

Those sound waves transport my mind back to a more innocent time. To afternoons when my Mum would do her hair with the blow-dryer while I napped on her bed. Or to the beautiful melodies of my Mom playing piano. A reminder that peace is sometimes not a place, but a sound preserved in memory. https://blossom.primal.net/1b6b4cad28a60ee0963ef6a78e8e4c1f2e0354076bb487836b2f7d6489211efb.jpg npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy In a 1,000 years, we're still going to have C compilers.

It is awe-inspiring to listen to, learn from, and interact with the minds behind disruptive technologies that many users now simply take for granted. It makes the curious mind wonder: If the internet gave us access to their ideas, what will AI give to their genius? How will these pioneers use AI as a tool to accelerate their work, expand their passion projects, and shape the future moving forward? npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy Unfortunately, humans in comfort zones often forget to use the mental fortitude that helped make us apex predators in nature: the ability to anticipate movement, trajectory, and change in our environment. Just because technology is expensive, slow, or buggy today does not mean it will remain that way. Technology is not static. It is a dynamic force that evolves over time. Given enough iteration, it becomes better, cheaper, and more accessible to those willing to understand and utilize its functional benefits. npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy 👀.

To gain any real impact or competitive advantage, you have to stay up to date. And that is on top of the daily work, responsibilities, and tasks required to keep your job or business functioning. It is not easy and as a computer science student, I have come to appreciate that my lecturers are not spoon-feeding me. The work is piled on, often in what feels like an intentionally disorganized way. But perhaps that is part of the training. From day one, your organizational skills, time management, adaptability and ability to navigate complexity are tested. The degree is not only teaching computer science. It is teaching me how to think logically inside computational chaos. npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy Synchronicity 2026/04/27 A random classic 90s film kept appearing on my 𝕏 feed — well received by both viewers and critics. Last night, I decided to stream it with company. I started the film, then went to the kitchen to prepare snacks. When I returned and joined the viewing, the exact moment I walked in, an otherwise insignificant dialogue scene was about computers. At any other stage of my life, I probably would have ignored it. But right now, so much of my life revolves around computers, code and 𝕏 . npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy Beautiful timeline, but Tesla is not a car company — and most of the world still hasn’t realized it yet. 🫶 https://blossom.primal.net/90031e65d02eb2ef28704aca3d8badda58cef5d6623d631d440cd5f284332adc.jpg npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy ‘AI systems can already help top scientists make discoveries faster by narrowing the search space, identifying patterns, and solving specific problems like AlphaFold did with protein structures.

Its response: “Tech moves fast, but the core ideas — scaling laws, alignment, compute limits, data walls, and intelligence itself — still shape today’s AI debates. Older interviews may miss current benchmarks, but they offer timeless context and first-principles thinking. Treat them as foundations, not current events.” — Grok 🫶 Using AI to learn about AI, pushes consciousness closer to infinity. npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy If a tool is productive and beneficial to the well-being of society, and a governing structure chooses to extract from that tool’s productivity rather than use its utility to become more productive itself, then that governing structure begins to resemble a parasite on the trajectory of human progress. npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy What is Modern will become ‘early’. https://blossom.primal.net/2b2b89f3d8e2e213daac0b129851381a0c1c63b31af17aa4180d7f2338e02e0f.jpg npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy I’m optimistic—maybe even high on hopium—that human stupidity in the digital age will go extinct.

When you accept that there is no absolute right or wrong, and that you are entitled to nothing, reality reveals itself more clearly. In accepting that truth, one can find peace with their fate. npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy It is a tragic and harsh truth that no soul should wander the earth alone. Yet despite the belief that there is someone for everyone, the limitations of mind and body in physical space can make true connection painfully difficult. Yes, technology creates new dimensions of existence where the potential for love feels uncapped, but those dimensions remain limited in their ability to explore the full spectrum of Being. npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy “The 4-year cycle dies every 4 years.” npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy Journal Entry 2026/04/03 There is so much beauty in the world.

The real question is: what new forms of cognitive labor will that automation create? Knowledge workers should not be conflated with knowledge work. Much of today’s knowledge work can likely be automated. Let the machine do the machine work. Humans have always explored their curiosity, identified new problems, and created solutions. We are built for higher-order cognitive tasks and for continually abstracting complexity. Throughout history, tools have repeatedly changed the nature of cognitive labor. So why assume cognitive labor itself will disappear? Much of that fear is a distraction, one that serves to slow the disruption of outdated legacy systems. Thoughts inspired by Microsoft CEO, Satya Nadella on The Dwarkesh Podcast. npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy “AI can act like an emulation layer, while quantum computing acts more like a simulator for nature. Quantum is not expected to replace classical computing, but to complement it by handling problems that are less data-heavy and more about exploring vast state spaces. This makes quantum especially useful for simulation in areas like chemistry, physics, and biology. A powerful use case is combining the two: quantum can generate synthetic data through simulation, and AI can use that data to train better models for understanding complex real-world systems. The main idea is that AI and quantum will likely work together rather than compete.” Thoughts from Microsoft CEO, Satya Nadella on The Dwarkesh Podcast. npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy ‘One of the biggest lessons is that spotting the technology trend is not enough. You also have to know where the value will be created, and business model shifts are often harder to read than the tech itself. Another lesson is learning to distinguish winner-take-all markets from markets where value will be more broadly distributed.’ Thoughts from Microsoft CEO, Satya Nadella on The Dwarkesh Podcast. npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy Golden🫶 npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy Yes. https://blossom.primal.net/d51d453b0354e541f38285a23954873217ddf17306e9de53062b41462a9112e3.jpg npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy Journal Entry 2026/04/02 I’ve been feeling this weird FOMO lately.

This is the equation that defines what counts as good or bad, and the system learns by optimizing it toward a clear goal, like winning in chess. That is what makes machine learning different from evolution. In evolution, the “goal” seems to be adaptation or survival, but what counts as the “fittest” is often not clearly defined in advance. It emerges through interaction with the environment. In machine learning, that goal does not emerge on its own. Human ingenuity provides it. Humans define the objective function, and that function determines which system performs better. The deeper point is that humans also seem to search for their own objective functions. We ask what our purpose is and why we are here. Machines, by contrast, do not do that on their own. At least for now, they need a hard-coded statement of what their “why” is.’ -Thoughts from Dr Lex Fridman on The Huberman Lab podcast.
