Developing the world's highest performance structural aerospace materials (and a couple other things) gave me a unique experience of the fiat world, which made me a bitcoin berserker. I must see the downfall of fiat so that the world may have had a sound economic calculus under which the industrialist can proceed with his work unimpeded. @DiracDel on twitter 1-arm-chinup nationalism

So far ~1 week is my *raw* carni max. npub1c8nlcgd5l8qenesgdcy4vw0s794yujyy23z50n52v5ld0ddkcjnsppqsah Dirac Delta Nope. I've written about it a lot already npub1c8nlcgd5l8qenesgdcy4vw0s794yujyy23z50n52v5ld0ddkcjnsppqsah Dirac Delta Did I ever suggest you are not free to not shop in places that do not accept fiat? Anyway, let's be honest -- it's a moot point, because you are willing to use fiat left and right! npub1c8nlcgd5l8qenesgdcy4vw0s794yujyy23z50n52v5ld0ddkcjnsppqsah Dirac Delta Then why not start with something that is not (primarily) LARPing?

Having call with V- this week. npub1c8nlcgd5l8qenesgdcy4vw0s794yujyy23z50n52v5ld0ddkcjnsppqsah Dirac Delta I met Erik Prince and tried telling him about Nostr. Unfortunately, I need to improve my elevator pitch as he had to run. I should have started with censorship resistance features rather than architecture. He said it's the sort of thing his CTO would look at. npub1c8nlcgd5l8qenesgdcy4vw0s794yujyy23z50n52v5ld0ddkcjnsppqsah Dirac Delta Maybe literature, I suppose, it doesn't serve me to keep learning more when I am unable to do anything with it.

You must understand that money is not a/the thing itself, but purely information that coordinates human activity, it cannot ever inherently be generative. Human time and physical objects are inherently finite / zero sum in any ~zero time thickness slice despite growth occuring over time. What Mircea did not explicitly go over in his blog post is relational contract theory. Nostr may end up being an emergent "state maintaining" sort of system that obviates much of the role of government in rule of law and contract stability. http://trilema.com/2012/gpg-contracts/ npub1c8nlcgd5l8qenesgdcy4vw0s794yujyy23z50n52v5ld0ddkcjnsppqsah Dirac Delta Ah, missed that, thanks for clarifying npub1c8nlcgd5l8qenesgdcy4vw0s794yujyy23z50n52v5ld0ddkcjnsppqsah Dirac Delta Woah, this is super bullish for Nostr. I haven't been on here much lately, but it seems the non-bitcoiner normies (who think they're edgy because hYperBorEan, or whatever niche) are coming. Idk how they got here, but they're here. Lfg 🚀 #nevent1q…j6mj npub1c8nlcgd5l8qenesgdcy4vw0s794yujyy23z50n52v5ld0ddkcjnsppqsah Dirac Delta Oh, look, a collectivist. Thank you for confirming I was right to call you a statist cuck, fucking retard. Have fun staying poor, shitcoiner. npub1c8nlcgd5l8qenesgdcy4vw0s794yujyy23z50n52v5ld0ddkcjnsppqsah Dirac Delta Ok, statist cuck If you cannot live without THEIR words forming your ideas, it is laughable to think you will ever seize freedom without living on THEIR terms 🤡 How weak must you think bitcoin is to need the word "money" to draw strength? 🤦♂️ npub1c8nlcgd5l8qenesgdcy4vw0s794yujyy23z50n52v5ld0ddkcjnsppqsah Dirac Delta BITCOIN IS NOT MONEY BITCOIN IS NOT PROPERTY BITCOIN IS NOT A COMMODITY, CURRENCY, SAVINGS, OR AN ASSET BITCOIN CONFERS NO RIGHTS Bitcoin is a software messaging protocol. MESSAGES. Bitcoin enables free speech and association without interdiction. Interfering with speech or association is not just unconstitutional, it is the foundation of tyranny anywhere, and enacted only by criminal, violent assault. It must also be understood of course that all taxation interferes with the natural rights of persons to freely associate. There are no "bitcoins", bitcoin cannot be "owned", and the notion of "title" to bitcoin is an abstraction under the reality that bitcoin will recognize and not reverse valid transactions signed under duress or downstream of criminal trespass. There is no such thing as "title" to "bitcoins" because it is fungible cash, you cannot correctly say "these coins" vs "those coins". This is not something to convince any authority of for there is no valid authority that may govern speech or association. Of course, people may be fooled into acting dead and impotent, like a trapped animal oblivious to the fact his cage was never locked. Every time someone talks about regulation and government, they are supporting the government, supporting its frame as a valid owner of all humans. This is the peak of high time preference behavior, a total moral capitulation and submission. And it is only possible first by promoting LIES about what bitcoin is, for if you state the truth, it is too obvious that all the regulatory ideas are invalid and unlawful. Bitcoin is software, it exists, it does not grant rights. If you burn a piece of wood and survive the night from the heat, it does not make warmth a right being given to you. You are USING the wood and it has certain behavior. It is anthropomorphization where the person being fictitiously constructed is none other than daddy government. But you are alone with the laws of physics, and other people trying to lie to you about the nature of the world. Bitcoin is first and foremost Freedom of Association tech. If you tell someone it's XYZ money thing, you guarantee someone else has set the mimetic framework / terrain. If you start with association, it may spur a person to consider association mechanisms and attack vectors. npub1c8nlcgd5l8qenesgdcy4vw0s794yujyy23z50n52v5ld0ddkcjnsppqsah Dirac Delta The most important thing I am doing for the month of June may very well end up being an elaborate IRL meme I am working on npub1c8nlcgd5l8qenesgdcy4vw0s794yujyy23z50n52v5ld0ddkcjnsppqsah Dirac Delta Understanding the actual economic theory of the end game and final stage bitcoinization, a subject you have likely overlooked.

That it will bring so much energy growth to both developing and developed countries, it will reduce the global price of oil and the global conflict of the petrodollar by disincentivizing war, regardless of how quickly bitcoin defunds it. That due to on grid energy project development inefficiencies and corruption in Western countries, developing countries could initially take the global lead in this transition, especially as behind the meter markets, including bitcoin mining and AI datacenters continue to grow. That the company working on this also has the capability to greatly improve natural gas turbogen efficiency, reliability, and upfront cost, including operating on sour (corrosive) natural gas that goes almost entirely unutilized. At some point, I will need to broach the subject that these technologies are coupled to the military industrial complex and where I fit into all of this on the materials & manufacturing side. I will bring something up that may seem a bit bizarre, but true, which is that until it is demonetized, advanced weapons systems will be made: better that some of those profits go into bitcoin. We'll see how that goes. I'd say it's still better that the US retains upperhand over CCP, etc, but don't need to go into that. Finally, I will bring up how more than just the things themselves, it is how they are achieved that matters. That I am trying to put together a fully bitcoiner LP base as this could mark a turning point of bitcoin beginning to fix things in a big way at the level of atoms, with orders of magnitude greater efficiency than the fiat world. And that if bitcoiners do not take ownership of this arc, it will be inevitably consumed by the shitcoiners who are diversifying their mimetic territory through faux industrialism (e.g. A16Z, et al "American Dynamism"). Ultimately, I hope Jack will be interested in continuing the conversation. npub1c8nlcgd5l8qenesgdcy4vw0s794yujyy23z50n52v5ld0ddkcjnsppqsah Dirac Delta So, uhh, TIL, it's not the pricey charity dinner entrance, but the auction that gets you. 😬🥲 Looking forward to our conversation @npub1sg6…f63m, thanks for sharing some of your time! 🤙 https://image.nostr.build/8c5ab18a004ada641ccca4a20bf2371c04612191d70c7728d9ecc60933c8fc1e.jpg npub1c8nlcgd5l8qenesgdcy4vw0s794yujyy23z50n52v5ld0ddkcjnsppqsah Dirac Delta The energy cost of concrete is about 1.1 megajoules/kilogram. More energy means more concrete, and I know the key steps that will get the world the energy growth it needs to get people to shift their focus from war to growth. 🤙 I can go by Costa Rica if you want to discuss there. npub1c8nlcgd5l8qenesgdcy4vw0s794yujyy23z50n52v5ld0ddkcjnsppqsah Dirac Delta Very gay. Teslas are peak fiat because they represent clinging to the delusion that the fiat world is a-ok via a simulacrum of great technology through faux-ambition, a cope that shitcoiner Elon Cuck gladly provides. npub1c8nlcgd5l8qenesgdcy4vw0s794yujyy23z50n52v5ld0ddkcjnsppqsah Dirac Delta @npub1sg6…f63m, I currently have the top bid for a 30 minute call with you in the Mi Primer Bitcoin auction. Not sure if I'll be able to hold onto that at the live auction. I hope we get a chance to talk about how my work in aerospace and materials is related to emerging tech that will allowing developing nations (and "developed" ones) to grow their domestic energy so much, it may stop WWIII if bitcoin can't stop it in time. I would like to invite you to join me on the critical path of the infrastructure of human civilization, going beyond the information layer. npub1c8nlcgd5l8qenesgdcy4vw0s794yujyy23z50n52v5ld0ddkcjnsppqsah Dirac Delta I'm planning to be in El Salvador through April ~3rd, minus a few days in Houston for the Empower bitcoin mining conference 26-27th. If anyone wants to chat about some recent developments underpinning the future of energy gen, aerospace, defense, and sovereignty, let me know. https://image.nostr.build/d05afde2a8ce17266d9058a0f8820b6275c99726d424d03c1cd6e71c855084d7.jpg npub1c8nlcgd5l8qenesgdcy4vw0s794yujyy23z50n52v5ld0ddkcjnsppqsah Dirac Delta The twitter post: https://twitter.com/DiracDel/status/1769407181827244150 #nevent1q…4syn npub1c8nlcgd5l8qenesgdcy4vw0s794yujyy23z50n52v5ld0ddkcjnsppqsah Dirac Delta El Salvador will own (Schelling point) frontiers of medicine. @npub1xct…gd44, Stacy, Jack Kruse, et al convincing me: America may need to take L here. Beyond affordably detoxifying seed oils, El Salvador could lead energy infrastructure tech. Here's why: There has been a recent series of shifts in materials and manufacturing capabilities that have not yet been implemented at scale anywhere in the world and El Salvador is well positioned to be the first mover. Supercritical CO2 instead of steam coupled with certain turbomachinery capabilities that will lower capex by more than an order of magnitude will not just unbound the growth potential for El Salvador and the rest of central America, it will lay the foundations for a new era of nuclear fission, as the generator side capex is a key component of costs. Nations around the world have been under the thumb of external tyranny suppressing energy development for too long. And, @npub1sg6…f63m this will matter to you: ESCAPING ENERGY POVERTY is the only way to scale optionality and make freedom truly meaningful to every human -- bitcoin alone is not enough. It is easy to imagine a world fully bitcoinized, fully nuclearized, and now we have a first few steps to take. It is time to begin the fixing of everything, and I have a play: there is of course a HUGE opportunity cost to doing anything in the world at the moment, which is why I have a strategy that leverages the US military industrial complex, and demands for physical sovereignty that are becoming an increasingly imminent concern for many regions in the world, to greatly lessen that burden. Yes, bitcoin mining too, but there is so much more that is possible. El Salvador has 1 megawatt-hr/capita/yr. This is what poverty means. The US is at 11. This is in fact also poverty if one considers what could have been. Singapore at the end of 1995 was ~6.15, so, @nayibbukele, @JuicefBukele, to be El Salvador's version of the next Singapore, whatever that may be, more energy is needed. I was thinking 2.1 at first as a target, but let's be more ambitious: if @americanhodl8 was able to meme thousands of people into reaching 6.15 bitcoin, I think Central America can reach 6.15 MWh/capita. Current Numbers: Nicaragua 0.7 Honduras 0.8 El Salvador 1.0 Ecuador 1.5 Costa Rica 2.1 Panama 2.2 It is time for energy sovereignty. It is time to ignite the engines of wealth and prosperity across the world. It is time to trounce the affinity scammer fiat-anointed professional managerial anti-technologist technologist-LARPer, this broader class of shitcoiners who now wish to ingratiate themselves and their parasitic ways into the world through insincerely claiming that they too aspire to see these things. It is time to wage a mimetic holy war, a purely mimetic war, to re-establish the foundational human values of liberty and that of striving for optimization of the world around us, which shall only proceed most expediently after fiat dies, but there is too much to do, and there is another factor at play -- it is time to accelerate the mimetic momentum of life itself, which is functionally the objective of bitcoin. The mimetic war of bitcoin itself was won the day it was unleashed upon the world (or arguably upon the initial formation of life), and the bitcoin "want" to ultimately flow to those whose memes and ideals promote human flourishing. For adaptation to take hold, a stimulus must resonate, and it is only through hitting supersonic criticality that gases continue accelerating through a de Laval nozzle. Now that this is all within reach, a new calculus emerges in the realization that some resonant frequencies have been found, and with a few well-placed impulses, we may live to witness the beginning, an Age of Light.

It is not well communicated in the original tweet, but this is similar to the question of, on btc standard, what is the value of bitcoin you hold vs (obviously bitcoin denominated value since there is nothing else) the value of everything else you own (equities, physical property). Just savings vs investment rate. npub1c8nlcgd5l8qenesgdcy4vw0s794yujyy23z50n52v5ld0ddkcjnsppqsah Dirac Delta Bah, being bullish on bitcoin is easy It is the stupendous growth that will occur on a bitcoin standard few are bullish enough on, for the pain of accepting the great losses and suffering of fiat today are simply too much for most bitcoiners to bear #nevent1q…trz4 npub1c8nlcgd5l8qenesgdcy4vw0s794yujyy23z50n52v5ld0ddkcjnsppqsah Dirac Delta https://image.nostr.build/5b65f4aa45075f80a9791afc2f20a050f97cb1cbb396b698741dfeff28e422d8.jpg npub1c8nlcgd5l8qenesgdcy4vw0s794yujyy23z50n52v5ld0ddkcjnsppqsah Dirac Delta When we are above $200k for over 2 months, would it make sense for me to look into putting together a VC fund for advanced aerospace & energy hardware? 🤔 At what price do bitcoiners start gaining an interest in investing in reshaping the world directly rather than indirectly? https://image.nostr.build/dec26ee85edb80ddd10a8492a4a74afaa9ecad75f37472c440cd1f8f8416cb7a.jpg npub1c8nlcgd5l8qenesgdcy4vw0s794yujyy23z50n52v5ld0ddkcjnsppqsah Dirac Delta Definitely, the waiting around part and not being able to do anything active is the worst, and healing time can only be accelerated so much. npub1c8nlcgd5l8qenesgdcy4vw0s794yujyy23z50n52v5ld0ddkcjnsppqsah Dirac Delta Yep! I was able to start biking 6 months after surgery and the first few months were tough, but around month 4 fully regained confidence. I'm about 17 months post surgery and still feels a little bit off at times, but nothing it prevents me from doing e.g. went on a 6 hour mountain bike ride last fall without any issues.

As usual, they are doing affinity scam approach, but this sort of scam is more durable, and encroaches on people doing real things. Those who know me, know I got into bitcoin because of the gross incompetence of VCs while I built a technology so valuable, it was actually an IQ test that was universally failed outside the DoD and industry -- yes, the VCs are actually more commie than the government! So many bitcoiners are still coping and refusing to recognize how fucked up an inefficient the fake capitalism is. Even within bitcoin, most find the truth too painful to bear and simply ignore or dismiss it. A16Z has 7 people for "American Dynamism". ZERO technical people. Marc Andreessen is mocking founders and selecting for those willing to submit to his disgusting humiliation ritual. Today may not be the day, but there will come a day when you inherit the Earth. There will be a day when the valor stolen from real engineers is returned to its rightful owners through the free flow of market forces. This so much more exciting than a rise in personal consumption power could ever be, at least for those who ever felt an urge to build something of substance. There is a great cost to shaping civilization too soon... but there is another sort of cost that comes with facile optimization of simply "dying with the most bitcoin". If I can consider this balance with orders of magnitude less bitcoin than you, you can too. #nevent1q…7zkd npub1c8nlcgd5l8qenesgdcy4vw0s794yujyy23z50n52v5ld0ddkcjnsppqsah Dirac Delta As a bits maxi, I'll happily hold onto all the bitties I can get my hands on 😂 npub1c8nlcgd5l8qenesgdcy4vw0s794yujyy23z50n52v5ld0ddkcjnsppqsah Dirac Delta There is a 1 day health summit in El Salvador in a couple weeks on March 16.

A message I sent a friend explaining my reaction: Imagine being a bitcoiner for a decade, but in a world where shitcoins gain prominence while bitcoin stays at pennies, it is ETH that gets the ETFs and you know bitcoin going up is still another 5 years away. I think that's the best analogy that can really convey my life. I have a new company and it solves a lot of what we might call "fiat related growth problems". Mostly just focused on what I need to do to keep building, but with some regularity, I get these "callbacks" to my "shitcoin milieu" I was forced to inhabit and am slowly escaping. When I say the world is slowed down, it is not hyperbole. The thing is, it's not about me. It's about anyone and everyone in my position, whose work would be part of the advancement and growth of everything. I am just an example. I know a handful of others. It is very difficult to see it if you haven't lived it, but this is why it is so easy for me to understand that bitcoin fixes everything, and why I am so bothered by those who capitulate and allow themselves to be satisfied with the world as it is to the point of deluding themselves and denying what it inevitably will become. Physics guarantees it. Though it does nothing to guarantee the when. npub1c8nlcgd5l8qenesgdcy4vw0s794yujyy23z50n52v5ld0ddkcjnsppqsah Dirac Delta Yeah, all the "American Dynamism" and e/acc LARPing from the peak shitcoin VC firm npub1c8nlcgd5l8qenesgdcy4vw0s794yujyy23z50n52v5ld0ddkcjnsppqsah Dirac Delta Seeing disgusting content on Twitter from charlatans really shows just how important Nostr is. A lot of info will get wiped and Dark City'd. People will play into false narratives and affinity scam since there will be no chain of costly signaling. I wrote before about the idea of relational contracting on Nostr within very narrowly defined sorts of business relationships, and even there, I couldn't fully grapple with the mechanics of how it would work. What will be more interesting however is to see cryptographic proof of what a pubkey has been thinking or at least claiming to think for a decade. Nostr may end up being just as critical to rooting out fraud in the world as bitcoin. Imagine a world in which no one alive has ever posted anything not on Nostr. The people who think Nostr has fallen off in importance are fools who do not realize monetary transactions take place via contracts, that contract scalability is tied to relationships, and failure to have tools that sufficiently scale relationships to capture the total economic capacity in equilibrium is how the state weasels its way into existence i.e. Nostr is what outcompetes and supplants statism. npub1c8nlcgd5l8qenesgdcy4vw0s794yujyy23z50n52v5ld0ddkcjnsppqsah Dirac Delta The people getting into bitcoin now and later are on are those who prefer to live as scammers. They will pretend to share your values. Remember that they do not. In 2019 I was transparent when I attended what I think was the first beefsteak. I wanted to get to know other bitcoiners in part because by definition, they have all the wealth in the world -- I am where the misallocation of capital drains from -- I am the source of wealth that the world is robbed from by this misallocation, and there are various others like me, though often successfully psyoped into false humility and capitulation. I came to understand bitcoin rather than capitulate. But the scum of the fiat world will not go quietly. Hodl hard. Many will come with nonsensical drivel that I see many in bitcoin enamored by -- I hope the enamorment is high only by number of people rather than bitcoin, but this is unknowable. I may come too, not with violence and fiat style grift, but with real offerings of technological greatness. It will be simple to verify the data I present should our paths cross, and you may do so if you wish. I simply kindly request that you consider not operating out of such desperation for escape from fiat bearishness that you allow yourself to be lulled into nonsense of the brand that this guy and Elon Musk do. The world is both actually greater and worse than you care to admit. Stop chasing simulacrums of techno-optimism when you can have the real thing. The world grows poorer when mediocre men try to do something. Bitcoin will punish your arrogance and make most bitcoiners who fancy themselves wise poorer, even after fiat is dead. Bitcoin is shuts you the fuck up money, but if you just shut the fuck up without bitcoin forcing your hand, you can retain more of your wealth. Yes, bitcoin does it eventually, but over how many decades? I will see the fixing of everything commence will I still draw breathe, not some protracted century of fools doing one final round of capital misallocation. I bring nothing more than the facts of life, the universe, and physical reality. The numbers cannot always be run, but they always can be inquired upon and there is objective truth. I only bothered rediscovering the meme of negentropy maximization years after living amidst fiat while doing the actual maximization in just about the most unquestionable domain imaginable. If you do not sincerely seek greatness and confront mediocrity with great intolerance, the world shall advance more slowly. Anyway, it's late my time and I'm recovering from a mild flu so I will end my disorganized rant before I meander further. https://image.nostr.build/4c03aae7d1de4018600eef73d06e980d38260b0256bc75bde73d5f456110d05c.jpg npub1c8nlcgd5l8qenesgdcy4vw0s794yujyy23z50n52v5ld0ddkcjnsppqsah Dirac Delta Denominating tax obligations in bitcoin is a cheat code to the Laffer curve that allows you to simultaneously 1) greatly lower tax burden; 2) increase tax revenue purchasing power; 3) decrease dollar demand; 4) increase bitcoin demand If enough nations think the same way... #nevent1q…vrjv npub1c8nlcgd5l8qenesgdcy4vw0s794yujyy23z50n52v5ld0ddkcjnsppqsah Dirac Delta @npub1sg6…f63m will you be making it out to the Age of Light event in a couple months?
