@AlexNowrasteh @nickgillespie Seems odd to group these four benefits together. Are social security and Medicare “welfare”? Certainly the economic health of recipients of social security vs snap is radically different. Seems like a dishonest, punitive framing towards whites (who you already admit are older)

@SpikeEskin Fair enough. Morey vindicated!

[Jackson Laskey @JacksonLaskey]

@SpikeEskin Morey prioritizes slim championship odds over mediocrity. Now team is mediocre and fans are seemingly happier.

[Jackson Laskey @JacksonLaskey]

@SpikeEskin This Sixers season is an indictment of Morey’s philosophy. Sixers championship odds went to zero, but team is now stably average with decent longterm upside. Morey’s GM skills enabled this, but he’d swap the vibes for 5% title odds. Would the fans?

@SpikeEskin Folks need to keep in mind, these are 4th graders with elite ball handling, shot making, and 25 inch verticals

Loving that @cursor_ai new composer model isn’t just way faster, but it’s also much more too the point. Less fluff, more speed

[Jackson Laskey @JacksonLaskey]

@danwag06 Part of this is that the mistakes AI makes aren’t the types of things that are quickly fixed by changing a line of code. It’s more like “don’t do that, do this instead”, aka revert + a new prompt. So highly vigilant, informed vibe-coding still is just vibe-coding

[Jackson Laskey @JacksonLaskey]

@TheFan83 @catalinmpit I think it’s a combination of 3.7 and latest Cursor update. 3.5 seems more unruly as well

@EquityDiamonds @assetlayer 🙏

I spent the last four years pouring my heart and soul into @assetlayer. We had some amazing successes, we came up short of where we needed to get to.

We'll share more about the wind down process via @assetlayer. For now, here's a post about my biggest lesson learned.

Thank you so much to everyone who supported us along the way. @TheMullenMuhr and I can't thank our team, investors, partners, customers, @DuroDogs players, and many more people enough for giving us an amazing opportunity to learn, grow, and try to build something amazing.

HMU if you're interested in catching up or learning more about our experience at Asset Layer!

[Jackson Laskey @JacksonLaskey]

@btchudson @assetlayer Thx Michael, and likewise!

[Jackson Laskey @JacksonLaskey]

I appreciate the kind words, but I want to emphasize the message behind my post. I don't believe Asset Layer failed because of insufficient blockchain technology. We failed because we pursued a solution that our target customers didn't adequately value. We thought that by improving on the existing technology, that we could gain adoption. We did improve on the existing technology, but we didn't gain adoption.

I don't want to take away anything from entrepreneurs who want to improve blockchain technologies. However, I do strongly believe that blockchain companies are too solution-oriented rather than problem-oriented. They are too focused on making great tech vs solving real problems for customers (and I'm not counting other blockchain entrepreneurs/startups as customers).

[Jackson Laskey @JacksonLaskey]

@Rob_GCC @assetlayer Thanks Rob, and agreed, although I understand much better now why it takes so much courage 😂

[Jackson Laskey @JacksonLaskey]

@Joshua_Hullett @SenorBrooz @assetlayer Many things! I elaborated on one in the article I linked in the OP. Essentially, focus more on solving tangible customer problems than building cool tech

[Jackson Laskey @JacksonLaskey]

@Gandalf924 It was a pleasure working with you! Wishing you the best of luck with the game and your future projects

[Jackson Laskey @JacksonLaskey]

@MrBitmonkey @assetlayer It's been a lesson in picking your battles wisely for sure! Thx @MrBitmonkey :)

[Jackson Laskey @JacksonLaskey]

@SenorBrooz @assetlayer Thanks @SenorBrooz! We gave it a good run, and even though I'd do it very differently if I had a chance, I'm proud of the work

[Jackson Laskey @JacksonLaskey]

@BodgerLeges @kurtwuckertjr Got my second stripe!
