Before I take a break, if you have money for it, buy Marzipan. Get it from a culinary wholesaler. They go great in cookies & cakes. You can model with it like you would clay.

On one hand, I, a blind guy was seeing a map and on the other, a map that only exists in my head.
Was it psychosomatic? Psychotic? Psychodelic? I missed out on a good buzz.

Yes, I was blind. The after-image seemed burned in, it was the first thing I saw in years. It went away after a few hours, but it was fun

A few months ago, I dreamed I was in my Dojo labyrinth, a palce of tech & learning. I ran into a room w/a gigantic map on the wall.
I woke up w/an after-image of that map in my vision

I've listened to the Stephen Fry series 'in your mind' & now 'Radian Minds', about Oliver Sacks on Audible. Both are great. I noticed same wording about motion: "the brain's primary purpose is to move us further from predators & closer to food and sex". So, see? it's about sex!

The first I tried is called Laragon. Main screen had untitled buttons but I got menu to work. Got to next step, a console & radio silence. Next, I tried WAMP. Can't hear the icon in my tray. If it failed, I didn't hear it

Part of setting up coding tools is a local web server to run your web scripts. Blind people do not typically set up or manage these tools & sure 'nuff, not blind-friendly.2>

Wow, I hadn't done any #Athena work for nearly 2 weeks now. I've written articles for a series 'The Meaning of Meaning'. I'm trying to set up an AI-assisted coding environment but I'm not sure I can set up the pieces. I installed the WAMP server but can't get to it.2>

I believe Peter Thiel & company believe they'll become Kings of the World. Reality tend to be unkind to this level of hubris but brutal to the other billions.
This not happening is the best outcome, the next ost likely outcome is chaos.

The EU plans on rolling out their coin in 2029. too late. China hopes its coin will be the global coin. Japan has a stable coin, but it's too small an economy. Stable coins not safe. Only speculative coins. And putting money in them benefit the bandits planning the attack
This is very bad.

I believe the US Dollar is targeted for attack & devaluation anytime int he next few years. This would devalue 99% of Stable crypto coins too. It would cause the price of certain coins to explode. Which? Only ultra-rich know.

Is it safe to say, when you who survive the next decade gets to build a new Democracy, you'll take away a lot of Executive power? Like absolute pardons, hiring/fireing?
Also, replace many elected, appointed positions with hired Civil workers?

Experts believe SCOTUs is poised to give Presidents absolute hire/fire power over Executive Office. Nothing quite says "Constitution" like being able to remove any trouble-maker in the entire Federal Gov't & replace them with obedient servants.

I'll have to experiment w/Gemini AI to see if it factors in real-world workflow when it cranks out code. It might, bu I am not sure

If you're wondering what I mean by Workflow, it's when you design applications to be real-world usable by small groups of people.
Meaning, it has to allow a small group of people to manage the sale of a million products in a day. Rational, realistic design, not take the gig money & run

A few years ago, I made a minimal living as a remote contractor, focusing on human workflow & migration, both complex. Now, I'd make half teh money but at least still get work due to the human component. The rest would be vibe-coding, touting my experience to get the work
