Looking at american foods versus europen foods how are you guys alive

Well, friends. Today it was my turn in the barrel. I got laid off from my fiat job along with most of my coworkers.

I’m not interested in returning to that world again, and want to build the next phase of my career in bitcoin. I want to put my years of experience in creative, design, branding, and marketing to a better purpose, to help integrate bitcoin, the Lightning Network, nostr, and the ideas, values, and vision we share into the culture at large.

If any of you have ideas, a business, or a connection that I should make, let’s talk. Or feel free to tag someone in a reply.

I just learned something that I would have never believed.

So I was reading about stress and trying to learn about things that help you cope with it better.

Apparently, one of the things that help you cope with stress better physically is: MARRIAGE.

I couldn't believe it since I've always seen marriage as a source of stress and heartache plus people always complain about marriage and how miserable they are.

When actually being married or in a long term stable relationship is actually better for your mental and physical health.

What can I say? I guess I've been doing this the wrong way lol.

What do you think guys?

They store the nsecs of their users. 👎

Good morning nostr! ☀️

Keep tinkering!

I learned a few important things early in my career.

First: If a company tells you they’re like a family, they’re not.

Second: When they say they care about you, they don’t.

Third: If they say “We’re all in this together,” you’re on your own.

Thank your for coming to my TED Talk.

I gather from the memes there is a fight going on somewhere, link me pls

There’s thunder, heavy rain, strong winds and lightening here 🥹 not that I’m scared or anything, and I definitely don’t need a hug…

The best part of hanging out with pre gen-X, is that you don't need 50 text messages.

Ppl will say see you Friday around 5pm, week in advance and just show up, without any other comms.

Reliably.

Does the order matter?

„Nothing more attractive than a beautiful mind“

What is attractive #nostr?

The look? Mindset? Intelligence?

so i ordered takeout today, and i’ve thought about this long and hard

I actually went to church growing up. Still had other kids trying to save my soul growing up.

Normalizing the hard stuff has it’s issues.

You could totally do it but then you have to accept staying niche and declining into extinction.

Unlike bitcoin, nostr infrastructure has cost. People are not going to maintain anything long term without at least covering their expenses. The best way to cover these expenses is to scale to a point where economies of scale are in your favor.

Without being self-sufficient and maybe profitable, you risk low morale from developers which I’m sure everyone understands is not good.

As a niche thing you’d also be limited in the types of conversations happening in the space. You’d have a perpetual echo chamber that people would tire of eventually.

People also get bored and Leave. Growth is required to replenish conversation, without which you go into a death spiral.

Luckily, nostr doesn’t have to be done in any one way. You can have clients that normalize the hard stuff and others that are newcomer-friendly. In fact, you can’t stop it from happening - the beauty of this protocol. nostr:note1tf49aft9da80dyxms6ltdmtsex6m65ggc6n2s6mknk90aaevkgtqy7quyp
