Without felt experience everything is a structure, not even a concept.
LLM's can personify in language, but it only has a structural grasp on language. It can say "I" without having any idea what that means conceptually. It will be able to explain it structurally, but it ends right there because:
Consciousness is felt experience.

Playing the game is not about creating your own rules you absolute bot. It is about understanding the playing field by the dictated rules and to make conscious decisions in reflection of those rules.

2026-05-21 07:18:21 UTC

For those that are winning, the incentive to understand the rules of the game is to learn how to cheat.
Wishing for it to be any different is naive.
Go ahead and trust them when they say "tax the rich", "capitalism is bad", or other such nonsense.
Start playing the game, or keep on bitching about it, but don't ask me to give you something for nothing.
Risk rewards, false security does not.

As scientists age, the problem isn’t that their minds slow down, it’s that they’ve invested decades in a particular framework, and accepting genuinely new ideas would mean discarding that investment. So they don’t. They dismiss new approaches, often without realizing they’re doing it, because the new ideas don’t fit the worldview their careers were built on.
This is why we must wait for #Bitcoin to be adopted, suddenly, be the inheritors of science and reason.
Right now most of the wealth in our global economy is stored in advice held by people in this category, boomers, who struggle with new ideas not because they can’t learn, but because accepting them would invalidate the framework their careers were built on.

I recommend you read The Will to Power by Nietsche, to get a better grasp on what concepts like good and bad and luck represent.
It will be easier to read it from a outspoken nihilist like Nietsche since you don't like what you call new ageism.
You are responsible for your own feelings in this existence, but that doesn't mean you are alone in what you experience. You don't know how bad someone else had it so it's no use to compare. The nature of the lesson is universal.

2026-03-03 10:07:48 UTC

The point of this life is to learn to let go of Earthbound concepts, mainly of the other and of guilt. This lesson is simple and universal, but extremely difficult to integrate.
I've read all of the greats and more, they all taught the same lesson, but they all recognized the difficulty of the path itself.
Knowledge ≠ consciousness

It's merely a plausibility, a paradigm, but fascinating. The paradigm balances in the present as choices are made that influence both future and past, making the past probabilistic just as the future. In every frame of the present you hold a coherent retention of the past belonging to that moment. This makes the experience seem congruent, in ratio, in perceived input. But it doesn't need to be.
The assumption here is that all input is perceived vibrations, not just classic senses but also memory and consciousness. Perceived input is read in the human interface, and response feels causal and congruent as described in analytical idealism.
Inspiration for this was a mnemonic ability I encountered on acid, and the writings of Bernardo Kastrup.

Normalization will happen by human action. In this case that is the monetization of ideology. This ideology is being rejected because of our ability to verify simple facts contrary to the ideology, so it is no longer monetizable and will destroy itself.

What we call the present is all possible quantum fields of both past and future collapsed into one. You are here, now.
The future holds all possible, but so does the past. The present is not part of time. Projection is time, through imagination, or what we call memory. We can recall the future just as well as the past, except that we only remember a fixed past because this is how it collapses in the present. You don't know the difference because you remember it only one way.

Technological advancement is extremely hard to halt over the long run, because knowledge builds cumulatively and diffuses across societies. As technologies mature, the marginal cost of reproducing information, designs, and even many physical goods tends to decline toward zero, driving continued innovation and adoption.

If every HODLing Bitcoiner would get a loan at their own capacity today, to buy bitcoin with it straight away, it would send Bitcoin to $200k-$500k overnight. They could then liquidate a small portion of their #Bitcoin to settle the loan with. Rinse and repeat.

This is simple ape like financial advice for fellow apes, a thought experiment for very rudimentary thought capacity:
Get a loan, borrow $100k @ 5% interest
Keep $40k in a separate account so you can pay the interest for 8 years. (8y X 5% X 100k = 40k 🐒)
Buy #Bitcoin for the remaining $60k
Wait.
Don't spend the money you set aside for servicing the loan.
Don't spend the bitcoin 🐵

In a fiat world, ideology is dominant over epistemology.
#Bitcoin fixes this

2025-11-20 22:36:48 UTC

Everyone with half a mind started shorting dollars at a certain point, whatever the asset or commodity of choice. First principle: every unit in a credit system is credit owed to someone. Which means that every unit is owed with interest, which means the interest needs to be newly introduced into the system to maintain the debt.
Interest is the natural growth rate of fiat. The extra money to pay the interest does not exist yet → it must be created by someone else taking on new debt. This is exponential decay, it is exponential because a percentage, no matter what the percentage is, is added every year to service the debt.
This exponential property of fiat is mathematically absolute, totally glossed over by most economists, and only requires you to buy some #bitcoin in case it catches on.

Belief is a construct to fullfill the expectations of the masses, because they expect to find certainty in their lives. The uncomfortable nature of our existence is that there is no certainty, only if/then relationships. Ideology is there to cloud your mind with fixed ideas of that which you'll never know with any certainty. You can have faith that the most plausible or the most desirable is your actual reality, but as soon as you start to believe you cloud your mind with fixations that block you from observation. Your epistemic ability will be compromised and your cognitive model will be filled with binary absolutes. This creates opposition in people, opposition towards eachother, opposition is quite literally the opposite of the most plausible model of reality: holism.

The reason people search for meaning in their lives and cannot find it is because meaning is something that must be created. Those who do not create that meaning themselves will always feel that it is absent. Before humanity existed, before there were people on Earth, there was no meaning. Meaning is something created by humans, carried and held by humans. If you do not live with this awareness, your life becomes something that happens to you. We are creators by creating. It is absolutely necessary to take full responsibility for your own existence, your own feelings, your own experience of this ephemeral life. Don't assume someone will tell you the meaning of your life, because you will follow meaning that isn't yours. Create your own meaning, be a creator, be like your creator.

When I was eight years old I fell in love with Nicole. It was my first time falling in love. I did not understand what was happening to me, but I recognized both the direction it physically gave me and a certain essence that I knew didn't require anything. Nicole was sweet, she responded to me with tenderness and answered with care. She told me she could not return the same feeling. Even though we were both only eight years old, somehow this practice seemed natural. I can't tell you what her perspective was, only what my perspective of hers was. When I went home with Nicole's answer, I noticed that I didn't lose the feeling. I didn't feel rejected, I still felt the same love. I knew then, that I loved being, I loved being part of everything, I loved myself, I loved everyone. The feeling persisted and I started nurturing it, with Nicole as the representative. I wrote her letters she never received, made her drawings that I kept in a self embroidered pouch around my neck. Nicole gave me her attention and time for part of that journey for me, I don't remember she ever told me why, but I'm grateful that she did. Now this is almost four decades ago, I still carry with me that feeling. I give it to everyone who has the interest to really see me.
