I feel likewise with respect to comments made from your quarters, and would offer that the very few private conversations I've had regarding you this past year were conducted in earnest based on the information available to me at the time. I feel that paranoia, simple distance, and operational immaturity from us both gave rise to the deterioration of our friendship; with an optimistic outlook in mind and given Morgan's reaching out, I thought it sensible we bury the hatchet and recognize our respective errors in judgment with an eye towards mutual understanding.
However, I appreciate your thoughts and agree that given differences in our outlook and personality, as evidenced herein, non-engagment is perhaps best for the foreseeable future.
May we both continue to grow as time goes on, and may the best of fortune rise up to meet you.
Best,
David House

David,
I've thought more about this situation and I've concluded that based on what I've seen from you over the past year, it's impossible for me trust you or be receptive to you. If you don't believe I'm an intelligence source, then perhaps you should renege the many comments you've made about me indicating that I am. I've also had various sources (from all over the world, surreally enough,) relay various false claims that you've made against me and even some of my friends.
That's enough, David. I'd like to kindly ask you to alienate yourself from me and my surroundings as much as you see fit. While I wish you the best, I'd rather you not be involved in my life in any way, shape or form.
Thanks,
NK

That's amazing to hear from you. I never thought I'd see the day. I sincerely appreciate your thoughts and reciprocate them in kind.
Your comments make me happy. How have you been? What are your latest projects? Here is a cool thing I'm working on: https://crypto.cat

I don't recall talking to anyone about Nadim in the last 6 months or so, but I could be wrong and I'm interested in seeing the email to check context. There have been times this past year where I have believed that Nadim was an intelligence source due to idle remarks that were made and my own paranoia, but I no longer believe this was or is the case.
Nadim, you and I both went through a period of intense paranoia this past year that was likely exacerbated by our competitive tendencies, and I regret any disrespect that was thrown around during that period. I'd like to think that we both learned a lot about how to keep our heads straight in the midst of intense pressure, but we both really failed at maintaining our friendship when the cards were down. I apologize for my part in that.
We've both learned a lot this past year, and I hope we can both wizen up and start putting that knowledge into action.

Is it true that David House is telling people that I'm a Canadian Intelligence agent? Someone just forwarded me an email of his claiming that [...]
You are both among the most intelligent, motivated, capable and principled people that I know. Please, for the love of God, do not waste your own time and mine with petty gossip like this. Politically you are in the little leagues right now – you won't gain any meaningful traction through slander. I want to see beautiful things from you two in the coming years, so please stop talking and go build something.
Respect is the only currency in this world.
