The solution is to rally around open source.
That's the only way to compete with a superpower technology network effect if you are not a superpower yourself. And it's the only way to bring the rest of the world along on the same team as you.
Open source.

Predicted the Uni v4 hooks hype 18 months ago.
The lag wasn't technical 🥸
Shoutout $UPEG / $SATO / $PITCH for finally making it fun.
Hook summer 🌞
In 6 months, this protocol will be the backbone of DeFi, and late adopters will be crying...
Making money in DeFi isn't (that) hard if you're early.
@Uniswap v4 just dropped the biggest DeFi innovation since AMMs were created.

Tibetan monks spend days constructing sand mandalas - intricate, geometrically precise, extraordinarily beautiful.
Colored sand arranged grain by grain into sacred geometry.
And then, when they're finished, they destroy them.
Impermanence is not tragic. It's the point.
The mandala was never meant to be forever.
Its completion is the moment of its release.
Every transaction has this quality.
It is complete in itself.
Real, verifiable, final.
And then: done.

i'm not building it to win
i'm not building it to make money
i'm not building it to be the best
i'm building it to help myself, and then you and everyone else
there's nothing else worth building

Something is clearly off when folks recommend high spec hardware to send POST requests 🫠
Apr 6
so let me get this straight
all of ai twitter was telling people to buy a mac mini to run openclaw, which is literally just a framework, an orchestration layer that sends api requests to actual ai models. something you can run on a $5/month vps. which is exactly what i do btw
but when google drops gemma 4, an actual large language model that you can run and fine-tune locally on that same mac mini, with no api costs, no subscriptions, no third party dependencies, completely yours under apache 2.0
the ai community is silent
you were buying $800 hardware to run a wrapper but ignoring the actual ai model that would justify that hardware
this tells you everything you need to know about the average iq of ai twitter

4 years. solo. no one watching
you open steam and you already know - you already know it's probably nothing. just another week. just another zero
but this time there's a number. $250k
and you just... break
not because of the money. because for 4 years you thought maybe you were just wasting your time. maybe no one cared. maybe it was all for nothing
and then a number tells you: someone cared
cakez (the dev) posted a video of himself crying. genuine tears. and he said: "i feel like i really don't deserve this"
i watched it and felt something
not jealous. just... seen
if you're building something alone right now and it feels stupid and pointless - this is for you
