Dreaming of personalized AI agents running on my own sovereign computing stack.

such a good idea for a book. take the sermon on the mount and go point by point. the chapter on peace was particularly good.

[Philip Galebach @PhilipGalebach]

peace is more than a concept. it's a living person.

when I get anxious, I like to look back through the day and ask myself "where did i leave peace?"

living abroad has felt a lot better once I learned the local language. feeling good in spanish. the best part of BA are the old bookstores

what a change from the biden admin. amazing.

The Argentine price increases have wiped out all those annoying nomad types who only visited for 1-4 weeks and left the long-term expats. It's been wonderful

[Philip Galebach @PhilipGalebach]

there are so many sales/business types out there with clients and/or money that are super eager for someone to help vibe code their idea into existence

[Philip Galebach @PhilipGalebach]

still think @urbit had the best people. honest, curious, high energy.

have met some great folks in Buenos Aires as well though. Impressed with the Argentines as well as the expats BA attracts: Especially at @crecimientoar

I've been a part of so many large groups in my life: hacker houses, crypto cults, churches, ministry schools, sports teams etc.

Only ever felt comfortable sharing real ideas with a tiny subset of those people.

wish I'd started investing in that smaller subset sooner

the best way to learn AI is to have an alt with only AI poasters and then join a physical group where you can dive a lot deeper with the same consistent group week after week

[Philip Galebach @PhilipGalebach]

it's less that I work in AI and more that I use AI to work

[Philip Galebach @PhilipGalebach]

Sovereign Individual called a "good job" where you were paid more than you're worth. Today, I'd call a good job one that will pay you to build the things you would have built for free anyway

[Philip Galebach @PhilipGalebach]

I've started kicking off the day by sending a message to claude. that kicks off the 5 hour session reset so I don't have to wait as long for Opus to reset in my Max plan once I actually start work

[Philip Galebach @PhilipGalebach]

unclear what the point of crypto twitter is. Yes, obviously buy BTC and ETH.

meanwhile AI twitter has crazy alpha

[Philip Galebach @PhilipGalebach]

CS Lewis has the clearest insight into humanity's next step that I've seen.

Wild that he wrote Chapter 11 of Mere Christianity in 1941

[Philip Galebach @PhilipGalebach]

I'd rather send my kid to @gauntlet_xyz than @Harvard when the time comes.

[Philip Galebach @PhilipGalebach]

hard to overstate how good claude code is, even with anthropic seeming to nerf sonnet/opus a bit

[Philip Galebach @PhilipGalebach]

my AI alt has such a better TL than this account. really need to purge crypto poasters ...

it's a lot more fun to build than to watch your porfolio minute by minute

[Philip Galebach @PhilipGalebach]

Argentine cost of living is up 3-4x since Milei came to power 18 months ago. Still spending about 1/3 what my cost of living in US would be.

Anti CBDC bill: prevents FED from issuing a CBDC or even looking into it. Not sure what it's odds are. probably 50%

Would be a big privacy win and a boost to private stablecoin issuers.

Some really big crypto bills getting voted on this week.
- Stablecoin legalization
- Defi legalization
- CBDC Fed ban

analysis and full links to each of those below. I recommend pasting into https://t.co/7Q4FJSKLeA and asking Gemini to summarize them.

CLARITY Act (Digital Asset Market Clarity Act): House is voting on their own version July 16th. Senate will have to decide what to do after.
