@Claude_Memory It's because up until 4 days ago you were selling the token. You were supposed to do whatever you like with the Eth, but hold on to your cmem supply. If you chose to sell it, everybody else will do the same as you have shown that there is no value in holding it.

I was wrong

I've been saying for months that open source AI models are 6 months behind frontier

They caught up. GLM 5.2 is as good as Opus 4.8

This changes everything. If you run GLM 5.2 locally no government can take it away. You become sovereign

And even if you run through APIs, its a fraction of the cost

The battlefield is different now. If open source is as good as frontier, and people have cheaper alternatives, governments can't be as quick to regulate. It will destroy the frontier AI labs

All of this is such a massive win for the people

If you are not paying attention to local models yet, you are making a tremendous mistake

@MemeForTrees @baseposting You are an idiot. There are plenty of chains/tokens to trade if you don't want this. But if Real World Assets are going to become an actual thing, you have to ensure absolute zero possibility that someone can drain your wallet and steal a house title or actual gold.

@EndWokeness What an absolute moron. He has no idea how economics work, or who is trying to take advantage of him. It's so pathetic that it's sad.

In 1968, while teenage Red Guards beat their professors to death with clubs in Beijing courtyards, Jean-Paul Sartre sat in Paris calling Mao's Cultural Revolution a model of revolutionary democracy. The most celebrated intellectual in France looked at a country burning its own libraries and saw liberation. He sold the Maoist newspaper La Cause du Peuple on French street corners himself, holding it aloft like a sacrament.

Consider what he was endorsing. Between 1966 and 1976, the Cultural Revolution killed somewhere between 500,000 and two million people. Schools shut down across the entire country. Students dragged teachers onto stages, hung placards around their necks, forced them to kneel on broken glass, then murdered them. The historian Bian Zhongyun, vice-principal of a girls' school in Beijing, died on August 5, 1966, beaten by her own students with nail-studded clubs. Sartre called this the people governing themselves.

You should understand why a man this intelligent got it this wrong. Sartre believed knowledge served power, that truth was whatever the revolution required, that the individual existed to be dissolved into the collective will. So when Mao abolished the distinction between teacher and student, between expert and mob, Sartre cheered. He had spent decades arguing that bourgeois reason was a class weapon. Here was a regime taking him at his word and clubbing the reasoners to death.

This is what economic illiteracy buys you. A university, a price, a contract, and a peasant's grain stockpile all carry knowledge that no central planner can seize or replicate. Mises explained the calculation problem in 1920. Hayek explained dispersed knowledge in 1945. Sartre had access to both and chose the dunce cap of the collective instead, then handed out its propaganda on the Rue de Rennes.

He died in 1980, mourned by 50,000 followers, never having retracted a word about Mao. The professors of Beijing got no such funeral. They got a ditch, and a philosopher in Paris explaining that their murder was freedom.

@AmericanDebunk Trump and the US are not giving any money. GCC countries will "invest" in reconstruction efforts if Iran meets conditions around ending their nuclear program.

[Vision @Pechangu]

@MischkaLikes @DudespostingWs Yes, many of them. Entire homeless families that got driven off land and can't find work.

[Vision @Pechangu]

@DavidAdams1980 @TFL1728 @Megatron_ron No, he said the GCC states would "invest" that money in reconstruction. Investing is not giving.

@_lbalestrieri_ @biancoresearch You are not missing anything, and they (mostly Biden, some Trump) have only used half.

This is just fear mongering, plain and simple.

A decade ago the American zeitgeist was one of decline

Now it's reversed entirely.

We shall build, we will create new knowledge, we reach the stars

These aren't abstract goals, the brightest minds in the world are working on them, capital and culture are aligned

@Just1Conserv @GiveAllLiberty @ATTYBYCHOICE @tedfrank You are not the serious person in this discussion. Free school lunch is 100% a form of welfare, and you trying to minimize it, or ignore it, or whatever it is that you are trying to do, just leaves you sounding like a disingenuous moron.
