for Cultural Humanity. An open forum of competitive podcasts & events devoted to protecting multi-cultural discourse. Debate values, technology & the future.
👏 Call 👏 Out 👏 Hypocrisy 👏 In 👏 The 👏 Industry 👏
We don't do this to be mean, the spirit of the intent is to keep everyone accountable (do it to us too!)
Thru honest public discourse & debate, we can make more rapid progress towards human ideals.

Long term, @SecureRender will have Open Source NeRF-like rendering on an AI neural graphics engine! 🔥
Short term, @dmaevsky getting WebGL responsive layouts to center center & line-wrap correctly! 💖 Check out the standalone demo at webgl-boxes.pages.dev/
This is almost exactly 1 year since we whistleblew.
Its exciting to have ?maybe? contributed a small part in avalanche this.
To celebrate, we're throwing a party 🎉 this Tuesday.
Come join us for our first IRL meetup

Almost a year to date
Since we rallied to get Jack, Bluesky, Twitter to follow thru on their promise.
Then Elon entered the scene.
Let's see what next week opens up!
We took a long Holiday Break 😂 & ran several local events. Feedback suggests we should consolidate the events into 2 series, AI Graphics & Heretical Economics.
Aiming to have a regular schedule back online next month. ✨
Join tomorrow 5pm SF time online:
5min debate, pitch, roast competitions.
Think you have a good project idea? Startup? Algorithm?
The best💡ideas survive🐅The Gladiator Arena.
🕒 5min open mic 🎤 timer, shoot your shot 🔫, but be prepared to defend it. x.com/i/spaces/1vOxwMDAdooGB
COGNITION
cryptography
Neuralink.
The. Graphics. Of. The. Future.
Is your 🧠.
Join us, this Saturday the 12th,
at @noisebridge hacker space
To learn & build
An Open Source #NeRF web engine, to compete with @UnrealEngine's Nanite.

This doesn't make sense.
Even if 0.5% of MAU paid (which seems high)
$8/mo * 238M * 0.005 = $9.5M/mo = $114M/y
Pretty sure the quarterlies showed that server costs are more than that.
:/
Instead:
Partner with @lexfridman & @joerogan &turn on a "competitive Twitter eSport"👇
Our next in-person event:
THE HERETICAL NETWORK STATE
Come debate contrarian ideas as we evolve humanity from 5,000 years of debt & nation state wars
into an era of post-scarcity, pro-social growth.
Nov 10th @hanahaus, 20 registered! Limited capacity!

We're grateful to see @bluesky publish their code as Open Source.
This was a major concern of ours at the beginning of the year.
Build in Public.

Stable Diffusion Day!
in person, at Stanford, hosted by us.
Only 20 spots available.
Come celebrate Open Source.
(we asked stable diffusion to make an event image for stable diffusion, it chose these heart warming colors ♥)

Jack tried this with Bluesky
(I was recruited into the community in late 2019 by then CTO)
But he dragged it out for 3 years
Then guess what happened?
The company for the "open" protocol went centralized, and is mostly stealth / behind closed doors.

Why I'm leaving bluesky:
For 2 years, it was an initiative to be open/transparent. Now no longer.😢
My protocol was one of the 1st recruited to the community & I helped build the brand.
I have to keep true to my promises: healthy *public* conversations.
