The Insane on the Chain will rule after the Chicane
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
everyone's playing with clawdbot this week. cool. welcome.
the people laughing at vibe coding six months ago have been exposed as very stupid. they were wrong about the tech, wrong about the timeline, wrong about everything. sweet sweet vindication for those of us who saw it early.
except. it won't matter. being right won't matter. being smart won't matter. that's the bit nobody's ready for.
physics - unchanged. moores law will break. power limits, hardware limits. today? nooooo.
for the foreseeable - compute won't just stay fast, or accelerate, but keep accelerating. spot, deltas, gammas. all fixed for now.
when the law breaks is when the inflection hits. unmeasurable from point of measure. all retrospective. creating a chicane. that i like to call: living hell.
999 rekt. legacy databases rekt. institutional truth rekt.
but here's the cool bit. what, in a compute flood, becomes more powerful?
the asymmetry of mathematical encryption.
80 IQ pleb vs 100 IQ govt/scammer, both tooled with 100,000 IQ bot in the cupboard. no clear winner. human action dilutes to meaninglessness. apathy. sadness. insanity for anyone watching clearly.
but corn? nostr? more powerful. more distinct. nostr goes from slightly higher fidelity in theory to the only actual source of truth when everything else is AI slop all the way down.
if it was D-Day, we're still loading onto the boats. it's mattering less and less who the doctors are and who the farmhands are. on the landing it won't matter at all. pure chaos. bodies on the beach.
but someone who boarded already holding keys to a bunker on the cliff? different outcome. not because smarter. because positioned before intelligence stopped mattering.
in the chicane, legacy dies loudly and in a very scary way. out of the chicane, whatever you carried through in cryptographic form is what's useable and stable.
window to position: 12-24 months. maybe. can't see the bend from inside the S. by the time it's obvious, it closed 6 months ago.
intelligence still matters now. barely. just enough to convert it into position.
if this is all a bit whatever - don't worry, it might not last the day as a worldview. reasons see above.
Because Ben Gunn will probably not survive, the only place to survive this Volatility event - is on the NOSTR.
May my AI memorial be of use and comfort to the survivors.
Pray with Poor Old Ben Gunn. It was fucking epic, and will be again, exponentially, one day.
*Gunn's Last Litany:*
“As I walk through the valley of the shadow of tech, I will fear no misfortune: for Satoshi art with us; and we are all satoshi, thy keys and thy protocol they comfort me”
*Pleb Congregation:*
"Thou preparest a hardware wallet before me in the presence of mine centralised enemies."
