These are exactly the types of things Chia is working on, and at least to some degree, are in production.
Tim Ferris has a great podcast episode with Matt Pottinger that discusses this topic. https://tim.blog/2024/05/08/matt-pottinger/
These are all excellent fountain pens! I'll add the Lamy 2000 (Fine nib) to the list, as it's my personal favorite and is what I use all day every day. And I happen to also use a Pilot Custom 823 (Medium nib) for…
Just wanted to +1 on physical books and writing with fountain pens. My daily routine involves journaling in the morning with a Pilot Custom 823 in a blank Midori notebook, doing all of my work planning + notes with a…
Hahaha, accurate.
What is it?
It's frustrating, I agree. People are obviously going to continue being people with pyramid schemes and the like. At the same time, there are enough who also agree that it's a mess, have closely studied the successes…
Yeah, it's definitely not ready. I agree with everything you are saying. Though, the industry is aware of this and working on it. There is at least one company (Chia Network) where the on-chain language (ChiaLisp) is…

I was just recently reading an article about the osage orange! While its most popular use was definitely as that of a hedgerow, the wood of the osage orange tree is "unusually hard, durable, and resistant to rot."…

While it's been at least a decade since I've looked at M/UMPS ... I do remember the database having some really interesting stuff going on that suits the storage of healthcare data well. The language itself though ... a…
For now, but I don’t think this is true for long. There are too many talented people working in this space who care enough to develop solutions to some really difficult problems that blockchains are perfect for.
