I like the idea of mathematics becoming a startup space. We compete ferociously to deliver ideas. There is an abundance of results, but people don't really care. You have to prove the value of your work by weaving this subtle network of relations, communicating ideas. You can't assume that your work is important because you've solved a celebrated conjecture. The value is much deeper, at the level where mathematics really connects with the rest of the culture. Because mathematics is the branch of human civilization where we capture, in symbolic terms, the ways to manipulate the world. And now everyone is equal, literally. A professor's idea might become, even by accident, a part of a theory developed by a teenager who just clicked the right buttons. No one is in the lead. There might not be much comprehension either, especially when a half-baked machine spits strange tokens without any meaning to humans. There are many dramas where a human equipped with pure thoughts gets outpaced by a company with tokens. In the long march of humanity, that makes no difference. We collect truths, catalogue them, commoditize them, and weave them deeper into our ever-growing edifice of civilization. There are craftsmen of this strange culture who care about the "ethos of mathematics", cruel "mobs" who care only about "mathematical scalps", ad-hoc-formed societies of ever-growing human-AI augments, and even inhumane farms of computers which churn and harvest mathematics with no sense or understanding. I think it's important for contemporaries to think at the scale of thousands of years, societal changes, epochal drifts. The local dramas of the human computers in the 1960s and the current drama of the slightly larger archipelago of mathematical communities are a dot in the evolution of societies. And we humans are those tiny ants in the hive, somewhere out in the ever-changing forest. No one cares except us and our strange affection towards those little symbols, internal spine chills when ideas align in favourable ways, and occasional scaffolds pointing to the potential of building yet a bigger hive. Welcome to the jungle, we got fun and games...

My newest essay "The Butterfly Touch": The seductive sensation of expectation permeates my body as the incipient bull market gently caresses my soul. As I jubilantly press the buy button, I know speculative excesses will propel my portfolio to new heights … at least until the maddening crowd awakens from its drunken reverie to reel in its optimism of a more glorious future and the physics of gravity reasserts itself over human financial markets. The future, as foretold by the gaggle of cheerleaders this time around, is replete with AI agents running amok, producing a thought to be unlimited economic bounty. The new masters of the universe, American and Chinese tech bros, build a substrate from which AI emerges into existence. Ensconced in their silicon encrusted palaces in San Francisco and Hangzhou their companies hoover up all available capital to build heaven on earth, at least for their shareholders and The Party, and when capital becomes scarce berate the political class of this era to support the printing of dollars and yuan to further extend their prowess. An orgy of construction focused on creating an AI utopia is not the only raging party. Another type of bro revels in the erection of a global edifice of death. Why should Pax Americana be the only purveyor of pain? Their glorious nation requires the most badass means to exterminate the enemies of the state because one cannot rely upon the mercurial permanently tanned emperor to rush to the assistance of his supposed allies. Therefore, it is essential to build bombs using printed money and conscript young men to face death for the glory of … I don’t know what. ... Let this essay permit the bull in your soul to emerge out of its cocoon and fly towards a profitable future, even as many untouchables in the global south, because of the wartime disruption in the flow of essential commodities, starve to death in the shadows where mainstream media refuses to shine a light on.

After years being speakerless, I bought these edifier M60s for my home setup. Holy shit they sound so good I can't believe what I was missing. Best of all they just connect to the studio display via usbc. Gonna go back to listening to Burial now.
