It's so easy to criticize.
Creating something new is hard. Building equals sweating, so if you see someone sweating, err on the side of building them up rather than kicking them down. Encouragement is a superpower. Encourage honestly and emphatically, and you might end up with the world you want to see.
This is profound
Maybe even chip in and lend a hand.π£ββοΈπ€
π―, donβt do βstop energyβ and as the builder, learn how to recognise the difference between stop energy and valid criticism: http://radio-weblogs.com/0107584/stories/2002/05/05/stopEnergyByDaveWiner.html?ref=buffer.com
This is the way everyone sees it when they are criticized.
What matters more is if the intent of the criticism is ultimately to be constructive, and if the group's primary goal is to do the right thing. I think problem-oriented and solution-oriented criticism are both valid forms, and the former is about asking for acknowledgement or consensus, rather than arriving with the tablets from the hill. Maybe drop the pretentious white-collar y-combinator gate for this one and see what happens?
Let haters hate. We continue building with the vision of a better world.

I love this attitude.
Anon, please ping me if I lose it sometimes.

It's hard to keep this in mind sometimes. Especially when you're frustrated of things.
I found it easy to talk shit to the people who didn't understand freedom, liberty and sovereignty. Then i questioned myself why do these folks not understand these topics more deeply?
Then i created AxiomsofLiberty to read all the best philosophy of political thoughts to help moee people understand and figure out for themselves what freedom means to them and what ways to implement it in their own lives.
As an aside i get to down my own knowledge about the topic so i can better articulate these ideas to others to get them hooked and want to learn more.
I don't want to antagonize client devs who named their product with "-str" or "nos-". I'm just encouraging us to think more deeply about branding, because building with a low time preference requires building for people who will use #nostr without ever knowing what nostr is. It's never too late to rebrand. I'm always available to bounce ideas off. I've worked as the director of web for a marketing agency for 15 years and although I have no formal education in marketing I definitely have a lot of direct exposure to it. I've seen what works and what doesn't. Let's not just build for our early adopters but build for the whole planet. Brand it like the world is watching, because if we're right, they will be.

Most criticize. Few build.
Join the few.
Brick by brick
Line by line
Thank you both for your foundation I can now build my own on strong footing.
Become a builder!
- work for free
- long nights
- nonexistent weekends
- vacation? π π π π
- βyeah, but what do you do for work?β
- 98% chance of failure
A tiny chance to improve the world you inherited π«‘ π
I did. Got criticized for (also) criticizing. Work/effort got ignored. Another one of these hateful actions. The world is really weird nowadays.
I'm curious. Whats the story?

I have chosen the build path. This is the way.
Criticism is time not building.
Bullish on the few
What happened ???
Film critics, zero contribute but criticize.
Good rule of thumb. Productive & loving :)
When I build I don't just sweat, I bleed, and if I reacted to pain and/or failure by crying rather than laughing, tears would likely be a daily occurrence, too. A true Warrior, not an armchair spectator, enters the fray prepared to fail, bleed, and possibly die. Doing so because it needs done, without concern for their personal survival.
Building one off prototypes by oneself like this is hard. But coordinating the capital and the people to do so at scale is exponentially more difficult. This applies to the contractual, digital, and virtual realms, as well as the physical.
ON FIRE!!!!!!!!
Amen
