@ScipioApucanus Why ?

[Julia Ioffe @juliaioffe]

BTW, expect to see a massive exodus...from Russia. Anyone with means and a passport is trying to get out right now. Many urban, educated Russians are horrified and terrified, and they know that it won't just face economic hardship at home but political repression, too.

[kairopoulos @kairopoulos]

@jessicahodlr Not in that order

[kairopoulos @kairopoulos]

Well, I guess my personal conclusion about today's special doxxing is that @0xSifu really looks like Master Shifu from Kung Fu Panda irl. Identical nose.

[kairopoulos @kairopoulos]

@ScipioApucanus Great language. Dangerous animal. Don't hesitate to reach out if you need something.

@ScipioApucanus Learning solidity, Scipio? Or something more related to your current work?

No financial plan here. Option B allow to live without some personal mistakes. That is worth well more than 100m.

(And if money can come from some financial foreknowledge, why not, but that's a bonus)

[Cobie @cobie]

for anyone that chose B, tell me the decade you're going back to and what your financial plan is

if i went back to age 10, id be broke, my parents are broke and i dont think we even know anybody with money, so im gonna have to degen and grind from 0 lol

@ScipioApucanus hero's journey, the helper

@ScipioApucanus To be a maker you need to develop your taste by curating. You are in the right track. Your public will be there when you feel ready.

All of this happened in greater China this week. A thread. 1/10

[Ben DiFrancesco @BenDiFrancesco]

I've noticed a pattern in US politics: the right pretends problems don't exist, while the left sees the problems but proposes completely unworkable (or downright counterproductive) policy responses. Climate change, inequality, racism, healthcare, covid, etc... I can't unsee it.

”My mother had a wonderful handwriting. Every week she wrote me a letter. They were more and more difficult to decipher, but it was so nice to look at them… then, there were no more letters…So I went on to write letters of hers to myself, on the computer of course”

A very late Day 3.
Space. As in "3-dimensional space".

Doing this without any 3d library or method, in hindsight, had a "stubbornly reinventing the wheel" vibe.

Day 2. Dithering.
But this one without making much effort to get a tidy quantization error distribution. Do I still see a dark orange?

This reflects a broader intellectual evolution I've had: from "X is what I must defend, so whatever is favorable to X must be correct" to "I like X, but X has flaws and it seems like Y fixes them, so I support X+Y now"

Soldier mindset --> scout mindset.

Day 1. Draw 10000 of something.
Is it cheating if I draw 10000 possibilities of something?
10000 possible paths, 10000 possible pottery shapes.

@bneiluj Panettone will rule the winter breakfast over the world. Someday.

Pottery will be my personal theme for #genuary2022
An archetype of craftsmanship and one of the earliest expressions of art, pottery is also a metaphor of the whole process of creation. And along this process the potter is also made.
