The “_______, but decentralized” discussion with @brewsterkahle was a highlight from DWeb Camp 2024.
Can’t wait for DWeb Camp 2026! 🌱🌍

A lesson learned from over a decade making general purpose software used by hundreds of millions:
People consider extreme levels of daily pain *absolutely worth enduring* for the features they care about.
They give exactly zero fucks whether their need is "in scope" in your product plan.

we humans normally receive energy through many channels:
sun - plants - food - us
a yogi, however, with certain kriyas can draw energy directly from the sun, this is called prana urja (life energy).
they do not need food at all.
anyways, don’t apply sunscreen.

I’ve disabled my LinkedIn feed — it’s full of boring people.
Everyone wants to be an influencer now:
“I got rejected by 500 companies… now I work at Google! Here’s my course.”
Then they quit and become full-time influencers.
People enroll.
The cycle repeats.
