As a startup founder and a descendant of men who fought in the Revolutionary War: 1. My technologist friends — H1-B does does economically penalize heritage Americans. More importantly, you must reframe your understanding of America and nations broadly. “We the people” are the descendants of a particular group of Europeans who bled and died to found a nation for us (“and our Posterity”). We are a real people with a real history. We formed this government to further our interests, as all nations do. The US Government is bound to this mandate eternally. As such, it’s deranged for foreigners to demand access to a set of institutions we built (legal, educational, corporate) that are vastly superior to their own, and to demean us in the process. If you insult us, humble yourself by observing the state of affairs your ancestors must have left you in if you need our help. Civilization building is extremely hard — there is wisdom in the instinct to defend traditional culture, to defend what’s worked. 2. To my nationalist friends, it’s important to understand the startup frame. Technology companies are not motivated by cost reduction / margins so much as talent quality, and it makes sense that they would want access to all talent rather than a subset. Winning outlier talent is perhaps the most critical factor in determining the success of startups — look at the wars over AI researchers today. Giving startups a slightly better chance of success can massively benefit the US in economic and strategic terms. Tech people are generally making this argument in good faith. And rhetorically, it sounds super weak when you complain about not getting jobs / being outcompeted (even if this competition should not be taking place). So, we should weigh the costs of labor displacement and cultural dilution with the benefits of outlier talent contributing to important startups that strengthen our economy and military, and make decisions on a case by case basis. We do want more Von Brauns, but we want them to advance American Civilization — not something else entirely.

Jon Stewart urges Democrats to ditch the rule-following and take a page from the Republican playbook: start exploiting loopholes

A 2,000-person illegal immigrant caravan is heading toward the U.S. border ahead of the November election. Illegal immigrants know President Trump will secure our borders and stop the invasion once and for all so they are quickly trying to break into our country. On November 5th, we will vote for TRUMP to STOP THE MADNESS at our open borders. nypost.com/2024/10/20/world-…

The LOX doing a Tiny Desk performance is exactly what I needed this morning.

25/25 At the end of the day, I think Hal had some other small contributor early on who left the project. But the bulk of Satoshi was him. By 2010 he knew he was dying and "Bitcoin dev" dies would kill his beloved project. So Satoshi disappeared, and Hal rejoined, contributing as much as he could in his deteriorating state. He transferred his coins to cold wallets, set aside for his kids and future generations, and let others take up the mantle of being Bitcoin, and in a way being Satoshi. He fiercely hid his identity, after seeing his old boss Zimmerman almost charged with arms dealing charges, over encryption code that Finney himself wrote. So from the start he changed his writing style, referenced British things, but still couldn't hide his lack of knowledge of the EEA/EU in private conversations. Maybe Dorian was the early contributor that send BTC while Hal was out for a run. Or maybe he was just a local name Hal chose to use thinking Bitcoin would never be at this scale. In one of his last ever posts, Hal himself says of Satoshi "How do you find someone who has spent a lifetime covering his tracks" It wasn't until 2014 that we knew just how big a part Hal had played in PGP 2.0 after all. Even by comparing code, many wouldn't have guessed how much of it was Hal. Maxi's don't like the narrative that Hal was Satoshi; because Hal was progressive in what Bitcoin could become. He wanted it to be greener, he was supportive of forks, of a BitDNS, zerocoins, and using the OP_PUSHDATA for other protocols on top of Bitcoin. That doesn't fit with the never change Bitcoin maxi narrative. But Hal was a big dreamer and a smart guy, who saw what this could be, rather than what it is. While some people never want to know Satoshi is, and think it ruins the "We are all Satoshi" messaging, I disagree. Satoshi is less interesting to me if he is an anonymous persona who died, or got captured, or a shutdown government program. Leaving Bitcoin to rust and it only being saved by others. Satoshi is very interesting to me, if he had the foresight and humility to kill off his persona so that it could live. I think its the latter, and I think it's all because of Hal. In his act of stepping back, he made Bitcoin something everyone owns. He made everyone Satoshi. That little decision, is something no other pure PoW coin could ever duplicate. That moment defined Bitcoin. Not by giving it a leader. But by giving it a soul. The soul of a ghost, who never quite fit in.

If you have no idea what SN8 is on #bittensor here is a little run down. Miners compete using deep learning machine learning models to try & currently predict the intraday price movement of #bitcoin (will expand to more markets) Intraday price movement is very hard to predict, but is also where the most potential is in terms of return. With SN8 quant firms & traders will be capable of taking multiple positions a day, and because they get frequent updates, they can accurately determine if they should stay or exit the position. Quant firms & traders with existing ML modeling strategies will be able to use the output of SN8 as the input to their own models. Their models can literally learn from SN8 to create super models. In order to compete on SN8 a miner has to have or gain domain knowledge in financial market deep learning models. They have to have experience with the features to make their models successful, and also modeling techniques such as HTF to LTF cascading models, and ensemble modeling techniques in order to predict with precision. At @taoshiio we enable our miners by helping provide vetted data sources from the top data providers for every asset class, while providing all miners with an extensible feature engineering pipeline product called Feature Set Creator. This product streamlines the process of taking data from data sources, transforming it as needed into features, and normalizing it to train and predict with deep learning models. With our own domain expertise, we are also continuously delivering new versions of open source deep learning models to expand creativity and drive competition, posting the new versions for anyone to use on huggingface. Overall, SN8 will be the biggest and most powerful machine learning network for the prediction of financial markets in the world. It will power thousands of trading strategies, directly helping traders and firms increase their returns. $TAO

Memecoins aren’t net good for crypto. And no, Bitcoin isn’t just a memecoin, it’s backed by one of the largest computing networks the world has ever seen.
