Vous utilisez Cursor ? Attention, la facture risque de vous surprendre. En 2025, Cursor a changé sa politique de tarification : des frais imprévus apparaissent dès que vous dépassez un quota, surtout avec des modèles comme Claude.

Ash Wednesday is not merely about dust. It is about dust claimed by God. It is about sinners marked not only with ashes but with the cross. The same forehead that hears, “Remember that you are dust,” was once washed with water and the Word. In Holy Baptism, you were buried with Christ and raised with Him. The ashes do not erase that. They intensify it.

The term AGI remains intentionally undefined by AI labs to maintain high valuations and avoid regulatory oversight while chasing capital. Although current models have "raw" intelligence, their lack of reliability and persistent hallucinations prevent them from yet meeting any true functional threshold. Ultimately, the goalposts for AGI will likely continue to shift to ensure the technology (and fundraising narrative) stays "two years away."

After doubt, grief, financial strain, and interrogation of ego, quitting would have been understandable. Instead, something quieter formed—not defiance, not ambition, but refusal.

Il 19 febbraio 2021 Bitcoin ha raggiunto per la prima volta una capitalizzazione di mercato di 1 trilione di dollari, in soli 12 anni.

As the article count approached 700 and Bitcoin Chronicles expanded into hundreds of chapters, a sharper question emerged: is this discipline—or performance? AI acceleration, high velocity, and modest reception forced a confrontation with ego, authenticity, and the fear of “slopification.”

What began in mid-August 2025 as a contained six-part essay series titled *Bitcoin Chronicles* quietly expanded into hundreds of chapters—historical, theological, technological, philosophical. As Continuum’s features matured in parallel and the article count climbed toward 700, the broader ecosystem remained focused on spectacle. This chapter explores the ache of building something layered and enduring while appearing out of sync with the moment.

In mid-August 2025, output stopped being accidental and became structural. Five notes. Three articles. Every day. Discipline first. AI acceleration second. As the article count climbed toward 700, silence did not disappear—but conviction hardened.
