Our X was gate-crashed by @vrneth @SantiagoDevRel & @shantelleawo ... and we LOVED it! We went beyond Web3 databases, into @ETHRome , Kazakh / Uzbek ETH communities and of course, our winners @kevo_adler @leviticusttl @limone_eth nitter.net/i/spaces/1nxeLMXmnybJX…

Today, Pioneer Labs is announcing our first step towards terraforming Mars. 🚀🌼 With equipment that fits in just a single rocket launch, we can convert Martian dirt, water, and air into enough building materials to construct a small city on Mars. To do it, we made the first microbe for Mars. We found the best microbe on Earth and used evolution to teach it how to source all of its nutrients directly from Martian materials. The first astronauts will be greeted with safe shelter already filled with water, oxygen, and rocket fuel for the return journey. This is the first step toward using biology to make Mars a friendly place for life. It lets us live off the land and helps us build the next great frontier. It's the first of five organisms we need to green Mars ⬇️

Constantly searching for people flying for @EFDevcon who can talk digital rights, p2p, foss languages. For Cypherpunk Congress programming, it's critical to be able to establish productive communication with the wider public, from human rights lawyers to policy shapers, from grassroots activists to digital security trainers. This requires recognising personal "professional speak" (niche language that isn't a shared reality; think of "EIP" or "GBV"), re-calibrate it for the person in front of you, and be open to asking clarifying questions. Encryption is the nice trajectory where it's an intersection of both applied cryptographers and legal people. They need to sit at one table, talk to each other. Just like @valkenburgh or @therealyingtong are doing. Think of this as an open call. Write us at @web3privacy.

It's official. ETHIndia is coming to Mumbai on 4th November as a one-day conference. One real question: What Ethereum actually means to India? Part of @EFDevcon in Mumbai. Mark your calendars, more details soon!

Democracy is the consent of the governed. In the Internet age, that means voting not just with ballot, but feet. So: if you’re one of the democratic capitalists of the Internet, vote with your feet for new communities by joining us in Singapore on Oct 9. ns.com/conference2026

I don’t speak Kazakh or Russian, but yesterday night I went to my first ballet at @AstanaOpera1 One thing I love about ballet is that you don’t need to understand the language to understand the story. You can experience a culture through movement, music, costumes and architecture. A pretty beautiful way to immerse yourself in a place.

Heidegger has a name for the first half of this. When you live in a house, you don’t really perceive it. The moment you clean it, it stops being something you inhabit and becomes an object you're inspecting, with infinite properties that were ignored before. That's the shift from Zuhandenheit (ready-to-hand) to Vorhandenheit (present-at-hand). The dirt did not increase but you notice more of it. Suffering (dukkha) arises from the desire and craving to resist this experience of the infinite regress of noticing more opening up and the terror of groundlessness (Heidegger’s Abgrund or Buddhist sunyata, emptiness of inherent existenxe and essence) You have to pull back and remember the Worumwillen, the for-the-sake-of-which, of the action undertaken: the resoluteness of Entschlossenheit.

At 70lb/30kg lost (without peptides) expertise is assumed; always glad to share p2p but it is intriguing how much weight (pun intended) is given to personal experience with body/looks changes
