is there an impostor syndrome epidemic looming? or a relinquishment of purpose and ownership of ideas and work in the age of AI assistance? when i meet ppl IRL that are excited about or fear AI and i tell them a bit about my experience and journey, i always add a dose of pessimism, because how can i not? i tell them about things i would have done before, creative things mostly… without AI… mostly, that i no longer am eager to do because everything is assumed to be totally AI generated works (and slop) now. and that millions of others over time will dilute it with their copies purposefully or not, with AI. sort of like the jiblification moment a while back. and it does bleed into everything else too but i have reconciled much of it. the things that i no longer wish to try and do, because of AI, despite the things i am doing with AI, willingly and humagentically… existing in this dilemma in this moment. its mostly just an observation from introspection. and this too shall pass. or not. end of day, the reminder is to do things for the personal process and experience, not just the end result, if there is even one to quantify. let go of ego. and maybe ost importantly, DGAF. -- It's always the same, it's just a shame, that's all.

Cherry Pi has no cloud service currently but it does overlap with Conductor's core mechanics in it's own ways. We've added support for any who may be interested in joining the private beta of 🍒π. More info here: cherrypi.tech/blog/coming-fr…

the emperor has no clothes. only a blanket of simpleton sycophants. a canopy of fools.

she stood and looked. in one direction, the mountain of marketing and distribution. in the other direction, a burnt down city of crypto and web3. that is when she realized...

very compelling… in a very crowded space.

is this how we get money out of politics?
Elon Musk dropped nearly half a billion dollars on the midterms. 98% of the money he spent on specific candidates went to losers.

maybe about a dozen scrappy unfunded AI tooling ~startups should merge together at this point. 🤷‍♂️

got access to @superlogical's Rex which is finely crafted software👌so i had to run the 🍒π multiplexer TUI in the Rex multiplexer and make it control its own panes and Rex's panes, thanks to Lua, which CherryPi is largely built on. Fun stuff! 🤔
Latest updates on Rex beta rollout: - I'll have a formal update next week (blog post). - We've invited 12,000 more this week. - We've fully opened iOS testing to everyone invited - Server (Linux + FreeBSD) testing is up to ~2,000 and we're going to open that up to everyone invited soon. - We're just shy of 50% through out full waitlist, but we're now inviting thousands every day and growing and this should clear quickly.

time for an urbit chat.
Curtis Yarvin Wants to Make the Internet Uncensorable @curtis_yarvin has one mission: make Casey @Rodarmor try Urbit again. Curtis joins Casey and Erin Redwing @realizingerin for a live demo of the new Urbit experience. We also get into Curtis's nearly 25-year quest to reinvent computing, what went wrong with the original Urbit, and his new vision for a "self-driving computer" where AI agents write and maintain their own applications. Maybe the world just needed to get weird enough for Urbit to work.

"I wish there were more experimental operating systems using dbs for the backend. Not many people playing around in this space…" - @lauriewired xitter.gq/lauriewired/status/211… Here is a deep delve into how I have been using SQLite over the past few years. cherrypi.org/blog/escalating…
It’s so funny that SQLite is genuinely faster than most traditional filesystems. I wish there were more experimental operating systems using dbs for the backend. Not many people playing around in this space...
