Despite all the apparent bullshiness in crypto I see everywhere, I have a much higher conviction that if NQ start correcting (not saying end of Bull) crypto will litteraly crash
I mean, it's a good question. Why hasn't human civilization naturally developed into a brutal aristocracy of the highly moral and high-IQ? Why don't we have a global "130 IQ high-trust Anglo" paradise already?
What mysterious force obviously overcomes and beats intelligence?
Now come the forks because you can't even tolerate opposing views. Every dissenting opinion need to be silenced entirely. It is not quite working in the internet age though is it?
You are willingly massacring people and making sure that survivors have no future even after the genocide is over. They're countless proofs, you're creating convoluted reasoning trying to explain away every single one of them not noticing that the forest is plain for everyone to see even if you're trying to hide a couple of trees.
Over 1000 cases barely a week past detection.
Soon to be the 2nd largest Ebola outbreak ever, and echoing the 2014 mega-outbreak in all the worst ways.
A thread outlining the huge challenge that looms, and some thoughts on what must be done:

Society is full of little, insidious mechanisms trying to capture and divide your energy and focus
This is completely against your own self-interest, but from this discourse this weekend on unhappiness in the face of abundance it should be fully evident that people are almost powerless to resist these forces
This is because the smartest people in the world are hard at work creating novel approaches to highjack your attention, degrade your willpower and convince you to trade your money and your time for the next _____ which will surely, finally, bring your happiness
But success, and contentedness, come from investing in *fewer* pursuits with *more* depth and intensity
You only need a few great friends who you can count on and who can count on you. A couple of hobbies you are willing to be bad at for years until you slowly live your way into well-crafted mastery. Your career will flourish if you embrace the dogged pursuit of a single outcome over a long period of time
This is the tension of modern existence, and the true meta-skill to hone and refine over decades. How do you live a deliberate life in a world that actively wants you to exist in a state of reactive desire?
I don’t claim to have the answer, and would simply posit this:
Become aware of all the ways society, and people, try to hijack your one precious life to divert attention toward things that really and truly do not matter, and even actively harm you
And every day seek to build mental and emotional resilience against those forces and cultivate persistence in your pursuit of the few things that really and truly matter
It is hard. Many days you will fail. But you cannot let the world knock you off balance and live a life defined by someone else’s terms
It is perhaps the only thing that matters
Humanoid skills are about to make Claude Skills look like a joke
Unitree just launched UNISTORE, an app store for humanoid robots.
You can create, publish, buy, and deploy robot skills with one click across all their models.
Just the motion library is live right now: basic moves, dances, martial arts, all available as free downloads.
It's only out in China now (international coming soon).
But the platform move is obvious: Unitree is building the iOS of physical robots.
Now imagine what this looks like once it matures:
Right now when you download a skill for Claude or Codex, it changes how your AI writes and works inside your computer.
It's all just digital output, stuff that happens on a screen.
But when you download a skill for a robot, it changes what a physical machine can do in your house, your warehouse, your office.
One click and suddenly your robot knows how to make coffee.
Another and it's running nightly inventory in a warehouse, sorting and logging without supervision.
Another and it's harvesting ripe produce row by row from your garden, adjusting grip pressure for each fruit so nothing gets bruised.
We're going from downloading apps for phones to downloading skills for AI to downloading physical capabilities for robots that operate in the real world.
Very cool to think about.
I made a visual of what this might look like in the future:
@calvinfroedge Oil storage is working as intended.
Ofc the storage won't cover for a war that last 4months+ and I agree it may happen but this is not the most likely scenario atm and thus market are discounting it.
