Buying Bitcoin? You’re Investing in Crime
Bitcoin has been called many things — digital gold, the future of money, a hedge against inflation. But let’s cut through the marketing haze and call it what it actually is: the greatest money laundering tool ever invented, hiding in plain sight as an “investment.” The crypto industry has spent billions crafting a narrative of…

Taskleef failed, but I’m still happy with it
I’m shutting down the advertising I was running for Taskleef. While I love the thing I built, and had wanted it my entire career – I kinda knew that task management was going away. I couldn’t get any of the younger devs at Meta to do it at all, even to help themselves. The field…

Can I blame any of this on Star Trek: The Next Generation?
Honestly? Yes. Picard ruined a lot of us. TNG is basically a 178-episode argument that if you solve material scarcity, humans will choose to be decent.

SOTA Running on my laptop
Holy crap, the movement to get huge models working well on local hardware has kicked off and the results are impressive. This morning I used this project https://github.com/danveloper/flash-moe.git Which allows me to run this HUGE Qwen 3 – 327B parameter model ON MY LOCAL MACBOOK PRO. It’s a bit slow, but damn if it doesn’t…
