When I look at how many people move abroad and how I can easily talk in Slovak (and Czech) with extremely interesting people - entrepreneurs, innovators, ... in cafes in Latin America, I realize that we are doing an intellectual version of agorism. This is not only a problem of Slovakia, but…

Keď pozerám koľko ľudí odchádza do zahraničia a ako v kaviarňach latinskej Ameriky v pohode môžem celé dni hovoriť po slovensky (a česky) s extrémne zaujímavými ľuďmi - podnikateľmi, inovátormi, ..., uvedomujem si, že robíme intelektuálnu verziu agorizmu.

Anyone noticed how hotel rooms reset to defaults every day?…

Illusion of unit of account. Juraj Karpis said in his talk at HCPP that we have this almost a language notion of unit of account. We all know what our currency (1$, 1€) means. We don't have to think about it. BTC has not achieved this yet. See

I have a podcast. Well, three podcasts, but who's counting. But I do it specifically for niche audience. I don't do things like publishing an episode regularly (weekly). I have an episode when I have something to say or an interesting guest. And when I have

Bowl After Bowl with Josh? I don't remember having such a fun car ride for a long time! And I didn't even finish yet. Let's go! I know that Josh gets it", pleased to learn from the conversation that he's not

Splynutie / The Merge – dokumentárne sci-fi o prepojení vedomia s nebiologickou inteligenciou Ako sa nás bude týkať “umelá” inteligencia? Prídeme o prácu? Čo nám toto splynutie prinesie? Čo je unikátne ľudské a v čom sú nebiologické neurónové siete lepšie? Komentovaný album @The Ohm - The Merge…

Tried distilled llama-70b deepseek r1 (not the big one yet). I'm quite disappointed. The thinking process is there, it is pretty good, but then the model does not follow its own advice and forgets things. Unfortunately the big model does not run on my machine.…

Very eye opening and sobering for people who don't believe in how financial regulations are actually made.…

This podcast is an absolute must hear. I tried to warn about FATF and OECD centralized global rule making in my talk Financial surveillance and crypto utopias at HCPP a few years back, but OpnState's take is even better, because he has been closer to the lion'

S Mariannou rekapitulujeme, čo sme zažili v roku 2024 a čo nás čaká v 2025. Zameriavame sa na niektoré projekty, ktoré sme robili spolu. Tak ak chcete vedieť ako bolo na retreate Hackni sa, či ľudia žijú oranžové leto, prípadne aká je najlepšia hackerská koncoročná žúrka, tak si vypočujte. Druhý…
