Week 1 of the Kernel Learn Track, which will teach you about the ideas behind Ethereum and how they relate to building a better web.
We’ll dive deep into meaning and value with Toby Shorin, Founder of Other Internet, and his piece 'Life after Lifestyle.' How can the language of the games we play redefine economic ‘problems’ like free-riders into wider and more humane publics whom we ought to be serving? What is conviviality? Who are you conspiring with? What births joy in our hearts? We welcome you all to join us for a wide-ranging and open conversation. We are the music makers, And we are the dreamers of dreams, [...] For each age is a dream that is dying, Or one that is coming to birth.
Referring to the readings from KERNEL Book’s Module 1 — Ethereum’s History and State. We’ll be diving deep into the meaning and value of it all with Niran, Founder of Panvala.

As we promised, it just gets better from here on! Referring to the readings from KERNEL Book’s Module 1 — Ethereum’s History and State. We’ll be diving deep into the meaning and value of it all with Kevin and KB3.
Promise Theory bridges the worlds of semantics and dynamics to describe interactions between autonomous agencies within a system. It provides a semi-formal language for modelling intent and its outcome, which results in a chemistry for cooperative behaviour.
We are building the technological tools and social patterns and practices to enable the next economy — one that is distributed, equitable, and regenerative.
Money is just information, a way we measure what we trade, nothing of value in itself. And we can make it ourselves, to work as a complement to conventional money. Just a matter of design.
An Ethnography of Two Cryptocurrency Communities in the United States
My friend June Thunderstorm and I once spent a half an hour sitting in a meadow by a mountain lake, watching an inchworm dangle from the top of a stalk of grass…
Last night I created two meme tokens out of curiosity. They were silly experiments, and I have no particular plans for them. I ultimately found the experience deeply unpleasant in predictable ways, but at least I got some first hand exposure to the current scene. This is my writeup. The
Dr. Bayo Akomolafe on the invitation, "Let Us Make Sanctuary," and the need for a deeper inquiry in our times. In this special session, Bayo explains one of his oft-quoted sayings, “The times are urgent; let us slow down” and how sanctuary is where slowing down happens. Also discussed: How the function of slowing down in urgent times is not about simply resting so that we can continue forward in the same direction. We slow down to connect with the more-than-human world, to engage in deep inquiry about where we are going. Pouring drink to earth: An African spiritual technology that expresses our indebtedness to our ancestors and all that makes life possible. Standing at the crossroads: How the ground underneath us is going through a seismic shift at this time that is allowing the unsaid to now be spoken and intelligible. The invitation of the slave ship as a place of spiritual contemplation, as a site of renewing our connections with grief, loss, trauma, and tragedy. Grieving as a form of activism.
The Meaning Crisis is at the root of our modern crises (mental health, environment and politics). Our book traces the history of what led to this—offering scientific, spiritual, and philosophical threads that ground us in our situation.
This is our final film: the highlights from our closing event ‘The Last Campfire’ on November 5, 2022, where we gave Rebel Wisdom the send-off it deserves. Featuring John Vervaeke, Ayishat Akanbi, Daniel Schmachtenberger, Adriana Forte and Nick Shore, with 150 people in person and 150 tuning in online from 40 countries. Covering some of the main themes we’ve explored on the channel through different talks and practices, we also hosted the first live conversation between Daniel Schmachtenberger and John Vervaeke. It was quite something, and we’ve left it uncut in this film so you can enjoy it.

Peter J. Denning explains how virtual came into the everyday computing lexicon. The term virtual was borrowed from optics in the 1960s and has become a major term in computing today.
Not too long ago, computers were people. They were math wizards and savants — people with a natural talent with numbers. Not only did they do the calculations and computations that machines do for us now, their work directly led to the invention of the digital computer as we know it today. But much of their contributions to the field of computer science went unnoticed during their lifetime. Because they were women.
Find out about three pioneering women in computing—Ada Lovelace, Mary Coombs and Dina St Johnston—and discover the impact of their work today.
