Trust-full Web3 Spaces, Beyond The Financial with Vitalik
The intention is to explore Module 0 and Soulbound, Vitalik’s most recent post, which rhymes beautifully with some of our introductory materials.
It's hard to do good work, with or without a pattern language, unless you use some form of judgment. Alexander found the most profound judgment is based on how well you can connect with the underlying structure of nature. To be alive in this way, your work has to act as a mirror of your true self. This is explained in detail by the four volumes of The Nature of Order. Filmed in 1995 by David Heine of Aspect Productions. Produced and edited by Greg Bryant of Rain Magazine.
The Human Form Divine: Sacred geometry and its relationship to our physiology Section 1: The Nature of Sacred Geometry This first section explores what is meant by “sacred geometry”, studying and measuring its terms in relation to the study of physiology, the 'science of life'. It therefore provides a sort of “geometry of geometry”.…
One of the trickiest things to code in Bitcoin is validating transactions. Another one is creating transactions. In this chapter, we’ll cover the exact steps to do both. Toward the end of the chapter, we’ll be creating a testnet transaction and broadcasting it.
One of the most valuable properties of many blockchain applications is trustlessness: the ability of the application to continue operating in an expected way without needing to rely on a specific actor to behave in a specific way even when their interests might change and push them to act in some different unexpected way in the future. Blockchain applications are never fully trustless, but some applications are much closer to being trustless than others. If we want to make practical moves toward trust minimization, we want to have the ability to compare different degrees of trust.
A set of 41 questions drafted with a view to helping us draw out the moral or ethical implications of our tools. “I can safely say that we in tech don’t understand the emotional aspect of our work, just as we don’t understand the moral imperative of what we do. It is not that all players are bad; it is just not part of the thinking process the way, say, ‘minimum viable product’ or ‘growth hacking’ are.”

Caring can be shallow or deep, short or longterm, successful or failed. It can be individual or collective or even built into social systems. There are ways to enhance and abuse it. In this essay I explore what it would mean to expand our sense of caring towards greater capacity, wholeness and benefit.
When building mechanisms that decide high-stakes outcomes, it’s important for those mechanisms to be credibly neutral.
The meanings of words are arrived at without trusting intermediaries. Blockchains instantiate this same phenomenon for any programmable transaction. We all know what 'love' signifies, but it takes real relationship to experience its deeper meaning. Kernel is all about exploring these new kind of 'trust spaces'.

2hr 26m 11.6.24 In this clip, Rick and David Whyte discuss enlightenment.
Ram Dass first went to India in 1967. He was still Dr. Richard Alpert, a prominent Harvard psychologist and psychedelic pioneer with Dr. Timothy Leary. He continued his psychedelic research until that fateful Eastern trip in 1967, when he traveled to India. In India, he met his guru, Neem Karoli Baba, affectionately known as Maharajji, who gave Ram Dass his name, which means “servant of God.” Everything changed then – his intense dharmic life started, and he became a pivotal influence on a culture that has reverberated with the words “Be Here Now” ever since. Ram Dass’ spirit has been a guiding light for three generations, carrying along millions on the journey, helping to free them from their bonds as he works through his own. Since 1968, Ram Dass has pursued a panoramic array of spiritual methods and practices from potent ancient wisdom traditions, including bhakti or devotional yoga focused on the Hindu deity Hanuman; Buddhist meditation in the Theravadin, Mahayana Tibetan, and Zen Buddhist schools, and Sufi and Jewish mystical studies. Perhaps most significantly, his practice of karma yoga or spiritual service has opened up millions of other souls to their deep, yet individuated spiritual practice and path. Ram Dass continues to uphold the boddhisatva ideal for others through his compassionate sharing of true knowledge and vision. His unique skill in getting people to cut through and feel divine love without dogma is still a positive influence on many people from all over the planet.
Walter Gropius December 26, 2024 Intellectual education runs parallel to manual training. Instead of studying the arbitrary individualistic and stylized formulae current at the academies, he is given the mental equipment with which to shape his own ideas of form. This training opens the way for the creative powers of the individual, establishing a basis on which different individuals can cooperate without losing their artistic independence…

Figuring (public library) explores the complexities, varieties, and contradictions of love, and the human search for truth, meaning, and transcendence, through the interwoven lives of several historical figures across four centuries — beginning with the astronomer Johannes Kepler, who discovered the laws of planetary motion, and ending with the marine biologist and author Rachel Carson, who catalyzed the environmental movement. Stretching between these figures is a cast of artists, writers, and scientists — mostly women, mostly queer — whose public contribution has risen out of their unclassifiable and often heartbreaking private relationships to change the way we understand, experience, and appreciate the universe. Among them are the astronomer Maria Mitchell, who paved the way for women in science; the sculptor Harriet Hosmer, who did the same in art; the journalist and literary critic Margaret Fuller, who sparked the feminist movement; and the poet Emily Dickinson.

Every once in the bluest moon, if you are lucky, you encounter someone with such powerful and generous light in their eyes that they rekindle the lost light within you and return it magnified; someone whose calm, kind, steady gaze penetrates the very center of your being and, refusing to look away from even the most shadowy parts of you, falls upon you like a benediction.
This is an interactive essay which explores what it means to own. Traditionally, ownership is about control and possession. Kernel asks a simple question, over and over again: How can we use technology to cultivate more reciprocal relationships?

In their strange cosmogony predating Copernicus by two millennia, the ancient Greek scientific sect of the Pythagoreans placed at the center of the universe a ball of fire. It was not hell but the heart of creation. Hell, Milton told us centuries and civilizations later, is something else, somewhere else: “The mind is its own place,” he wrote in Paradise Lost, “and in it self can make a Heav’n of Hell, a Hell of Heav’n.”
