I’m an #URBIT! 🐝 What I Can Do #1:

p2p messaging
✅ with #encryption & verifiable code
❌ without intermediary megacorp servers!

(take that, sneaky #EarnItAct) #Ethereum

What’s your favorite recent #Ethereum project? Mine’s Urbit. I mean, besides Peepeth, but that’s a given.

Java edition?

I’ve been away from Peepeth for a while. Busy focusing on company social media & getting suspended from more centralized platforms (good riddance, PayPal).

I forgot how great the @peepethApp community is. Come try it out 🐧
#ETH #dapp

Arg, mention*
Damned immutability:)

This magical Insight feature has intrigued me since the first mentioned of it.

As predicted.

"Trying to enact restrictive regulations would ultimately backfire. There [is] no stopping the advance of digital currencies ... [We] ought to pursue a more flexible & lenient legal framework for cryptocurrencies."

I've started experimenting with toe-to-heel. Definitely an adjustment, but worth the ankle pain reductions. Tough to transition to in the modern world – I'm used to being a counter-cultural weirdo, but only in ways that I can switch off at times:)

Jealousy.

“But despite how annoying fanboys for any given crypto can be, we have to admit: crypto networks need their own fanatics in order to flourish.”

Wow! I wonder if it's already flipped since 2017, or close to it

(His initial pitch was lucid and compelling: )

Getting a BTC #crypto scammer to seriously utter the phrase, "Will we meet at school bounce house to trade chicken and champagne?" = highlight of the night

For different reasons & use cases, I follow BTC +Lightning, EOS, ETH, IOST, XMR, MKR & more

But the Algorithm shuts out non-fanboys (and non-extremists). 90% of visible crypto posts scream at you, "pitch everything into (or out of) this coin!"

...it is very tempting sometimes

Sad not to be at #buidl_bali. Can't wait to hear stories

Wish I could go to #buidl_bali as I planned, but I’ll need to be creating developer content during that time that I doubt I could make without a studio:) @Bevan

Today kicks off Season 2 of Bitgenstein's Table, the Crypto Philosophy Podcast.
🗣️🎙️ = carefully researched. 🎹🎶 = carelessly improvised.
Philosophy, psychology & history applied to #blockchain tech.

Nothing like being head-down in code to make you forget about the existence of social media for a couple of weeks.

lol. Time to go send somebody three trillion love.

Sure, as long as you stick around a bit;)

#streakonstreaks #20

‘Twas a gath’ring so distant,
And a winter so bleak –
Though merry the party –
One man lost his streak.

Roared brightly the fire,
As guests slipped to sleep.
Not a creature was stirring,
And that includes Peeps.

I know it’s not a traditional #Christmas #Netflix title, but...

Reactions to the award-winning documentary *American Circumcision* (on Netflix) on Twitter and Facebook continue to be overwhelmingly positive.

Couldn’t be more proud of our whole production team.

Prime numbers, especially prime number clusters, are crazy.

Hard to convince any normal person of that though:)

One of my favorite cryptos back in the day had a CPU mining channel where the PoW was finding new prime number clusters. I’m sad more projects don’t try “useful” PoW.

I’m proud to see this hit Netflix and evoke such a positive reaction on Twitter & Facebook. Happy to have helped a bit with post-production.

#streakonstreaks #19
A streak of random facts about the number 19.

1. Go is played on a 19x19 board.

2. The 19th century’s 19th President was born Nov. 19 and died Sep. 19.

3. Longest palindrome: saippuakivikauppias. 19 letters long. It’s Finnish for “caustic lye dealer.

D’oh, I meant “most other fields.” I blame mutable networks for my typographical laxity.

Same sentiment here. A good number of tragedies in the past I would no longer change, for they led to the things I treasure now.

Peepstreaks are arguably less luck and more persistence than most other records that heavily rely on track records:)

#streakonstreaks #18
People view streaks as predictors of future success. Good traders, good managers.

Ever notice few older people are heralded as dynamite traders or managers?

Because as time goes on, your *lucky* streak grows more & more likely to crash.

#fooledbyrandomness

Welcome, fellow fullstacker. We should hang out. (On Peepeth.)

#streakonstreaks #17
The streak of crypto shutdowns continues. A company I worked for most of the year—ICO Alert—just closed up. Or restructured, I guess.

Time to pile into something I've been prepping for for a long time: nimble dApp development. First launch in January. #w00t

#streakonstreaks #16
One meaning of **streak**—*a part of character unlike the rest.*

A streak of kindness, a streak of cruelty. A competitive streak, a mean streak.

Like a streak of red on a white wall, certain traits seem out of place—to the Western mind.

More on this later.

#streakonstreaks #15

The Aero-Flight Streak, a 2-seat prop plane. Advanced for 1946.

Great projects often die due to similar projects flooding the market.

Only 1 was ever made. In 1946, naturally, a ton of other light airplanes went up for sale, so the Streak was doomed.

#streakonstreaks #14

This is a streak.

Some moths are beautiful. My childhood home had strawberry-and-cream moths come out in droves for a week each year.

Other moths are, well, not so attractive. Such as the streak.

At the risk of going too meta, I thought about this here:)

But I’ve challenged my rather rarely social self to do a mini-series exploring streaks from all kinds of aspects, so... loophole?

#streakonstreaks #13
Day 13: a streak of unluck conspiring to break me.

From blinding windshield wiper streaks, to streaks of distracting business phone calls.

Thankfully, I have activated the habit-enhancing powers of modern technology.

(aaaand the open parenthesis denies the #streakonstreaks hashtag)

(#streakonstreaks #12)

On the 12th day of #crypto,
My news feed gave to me:
12 shitcoins pumping,
11 miners mining,
10 Lauras casting,
9 Lubins laughing,
8 trades a-sinking,
7 Songs a-shilling,
6 Lees a-selling,
5 BTCs,
4 of Roger’s birds,
3 jailed men,
2 hundred layoffs,
and a market rever-er-sal V.

Oh no, look what’s coming in heaps!
An onslaught of limericks. You creeps!
Now we can be sure
That it’s true what I’ve heard:
A man always reaps what he Peeps.
#limericksofpeepeth

...there are people that say bad things about Chipotle?

#streakonstreaks #11 #liamneeson

@decentralizeds, I have a very particular set of skills. I will find you, and I will destreak you.\*

The man with the most #worldrecords is Ashrita Furman.

He holds over 120 records, like 27000 jumping jacks in 6.75 hours (his first record), somersaulting >12 miles, & balancing 81 glasses on his chin. https://www.ashrita.com/records

I too am interested in Horizen, @Northman. #following

And this is rad, @Sparrow, I'm definitely grabbing a CASA node ASAP. #sendnodes

#streakonstreaks #9

His Peepeth is far from a gimmick,
And Bevan’s got skills hard to mimic,
So it’s quite taboo,
When he wants a haiku,
That instead I should give him a limerick.

#streakonstreaks #8 #haiku
``Coal-black class-front boards.
Chalk residue, wet rag chores.
Fingernail tortures.``

Seriously appreciate that. Never thought I’d get compared to Orson:)

Speaking of which, I’ve been silent for nearly as long as him now. I have a few episodes milling about in the writing stage and just haven’t had the time to release them the past few weeks:/

Indeed! #justpeepit

This was a tongue-in-cheek, self-aware peep struggling to find meaning – and only finding it in its own lack of meaningfulness.

#meta #alcoholfueledprofundity

#streakonstreaks #7
If, on the seventh day, a man continues a streak with no meaningful content for the sole purpose of not losing said streak, should not he lose the streak?—for by so doing, he rejects the purpose of “streak,” emptying it of content and negating its essence.
