Months ago, when Mosha needed her dental surgery, I sold 1.6 million sats to a co-worker to pay for the procedure. They still sit in a wallet under my control. He has offered to let me keep 600K sats on the condition I open a CoinBase account and use them to start learning to trade shitcoins.

I've decided to turn him down on his offer. It is worth about $200 of Canadian fiat, and I think it is worth that much not to shitcoin, It would have likely been $200 lost anyway.

Instead I will focus my time on stacking sats, and learning to code for Nostr. Winter is coming, and I feel inspired by everything surrounding me here. I have some experience creating small bash and Python scripts for my own use, and I have been using Linux for over 20 years. I also know a little bit about web hosting, so that may help too.

In the end it will be a much better winter project than putting 400 hours into the new Zelda game, and a better user of my time than learning about ETH and metamask wallet.

I would appreciate any links to good learning resources, please leave them in the comments! I will zap in return thanks!

Bookmarked, thank you Zach!

🤙 thank you for generous zap too!

I finished the build a basic nostr app. It works, but I need to review my notes before I move on.

Awesome, keep at it! I'm in Canada, so thankfully winter gives me a lot of time for indoor projects 💜🤙

Check out https://plebnet.dev/ too.

Awesome! Thanks for sharing.

Nice work!!

Thanks, but I still have a lot to learn. Luckily, I learned most of javascript syntax on freecode camp a few weeks ago.

I’m in the same boat. Tons to learn!! We got this.

Followed so I can keep up with your progress!

It's nice of your employer to employ someone with special needs.

Your coworker will thank you down the road.

I just started learning html, css and JavaScript. Chat GPT is super helpful

look @ at repos on GitHub and ask Chat GPT to explain like I’m 5,

also watching dev livestreams on zap.stream and hashtag #️⃣ asknostr

Good tips. I already use ChatGPT, and I plan to investigate the LlamaLLM that pablo is training for Nostr too 💜🤙

nostr:npub1an84q6c03wml5lf0uwcqcr20ydwv0t0lvv0xktlcfs9seattef8sdhz6yg had some some free education on their website.

I’m also looking to learn nostr.

LFG! 🫂👌
