pesky evidence


Is any of this based upon evidence? As best I can tell, the demand for RTO is entirely vibe bossing.


maybe maybe not


it’s just ai llm snooping amd doing big ol compute just like we have access to now. but advertisers had it years ago cuz they paid and at large, ads sold.

became so prevalent no differentiable value so the algos etc sought new omg human public users. magic baby. but just hungry ip sw gobbling up new worlds.

maybe. just thinking outloud.


nudge force push to dogecoin trumpbux etc

quick rich, scorched earth, whatever u can keep


> Lie down, do a push up, then jump up to your feet, upright, arms raised (Burpee). Repeat in rapid succession twelve times, then immediately shut your mouth and close your nose with your hand. Hold it. Close your eyes and imagine you are under water and don‘t know how long it will take till you can resurface.

you forget, ‘put a blindfold on and tie your leg to a doberman’s leash then fall down 3-6 flights of stairs’

pretty similar forces and sensory at play, or at least a similar thrashing to big Teahupo’o over a sharp reef.


A safe way to get a similar disorienting experience is hold your breath under water while in a tight ball and have someone spin you on every direction and reverse it until you can't stand it and then wait another ten seconds.

I recall being swallowed by a wave and while under for only a short period i thought it was annoying not knowing when I'd return to the surface.


amen. i hit golf balls with old hand me downs from my great uncle. the woods - the heads are wooden! they feel great to connect and they can crush distance. but the feel is so full and warm. i guess like warm vinyl records.

even better- i get to suck on so many shots. but sometimes - glory and feels.

another thing i like to celebrate when doing new sports ks starting with the crappiest gear available. it works and i learn. eventually when i upgrade, i can appreciate the new features and tech. or it’s bogus and doesn’t matter.

probably inappropriate but i find this phrase encouraging - it’s not the arrow, it’s the indian.


There was another article on these baseball bats where the opposing manager—the one whose team gave up the home runs—said, "It ain't the wand; it's the magician."


yeah that’s how i understood the article.

or at least pretend to believe i understand it.

as with most newly introduced concepts


pebble the company reminds me of teenage engineering


Except reasonably priced :)


But not financially solvent either. Maybe at higher volumes their pricing model would have worked but that wasn't the reality of the market.


They weren't that far off though. They basically just didn't have any funds to use in case of (strategic) emergencies, couldn't outmaneuver a few mistakes they made.
