More of a notes guy. I’ll dig into the replies if the first note grabs me.

Shoutout to nostr:npub14f26g7dddy6dpltc70da3pg4e5w2p4apzzqjuugnsr2ema6e3y6s2xv7lu wallet and nostr:npub1t289s8ck5qfwynf2vsq49t2kypvvkpj7rhegayrur0ag9s2sezaqgunkzs for the SINPE integration. I arrived in Nosara, Costa Rica late last night and realized I had no cash to tip my driver. Like magic I sent sats and he received colones. No KYC. A beautiful tool to move toward a bitcoin standard, and to start conversations about accepting bitcoin all across this beautiful country.

#Bitcoin Freedom Festival was a truly beautiful experience. So many great conversations with great humans trying to think deeply about improving the world. Thanks to nostr:npub14f26g7dddy6dpltc70da3pg4e5w2p4apzzqjuugnsr2ema6e3y6s2xv7lu for all the hard work. It’s inspiring to see the Bitcoin economy that has already been built here. Looking forward to visiting again and seeing it grow.

He always says it’s used for “anti-money laundering” when he means to say money laundering. Okay, you’re right Jamie. A transparent ledger is a good anti-money laundering tool.

#Bitcoin alters our cognitive landscape and affords us the ability to implement multi-generational projects.

I just did my 90s self a favour and bought tickets to their tour next year for the Nashville stop. I was obsessed with every album up until Nimrod but have never seen them live.

The answer is always and simply, not enough.

Yes, yes I did. Scholastic book fairs at school were pretty hype. Our elementary school put a ban on doing book reports on goosebumps books because it was all kids would read.

His work and talks on Nietzsche and Jung, and the biblical series are enough to secure his intellectual legacy. I’ll admit, in 2017 I was on a Peterson tip. I was in Toronto at U of T and going to see him speak (when it was still $5-$10 to get in). I think he worked as an intellectual gateway for myself and a lot of people. But most of the people I speak with agree that he has gone off the rails. His obsession with the culture war is too much. If at this point you’re still a fanboy then I think you’re under a spell. But I still respect the man.

I will never understand the desire to be seen as important or gain influence through fraud. And to continually double down on that fraud.

It’s nihilistic. It’s meaningless.

#Bitcoin represents truth, meaning, and hard work.

You will not find meaning in what is not real. Imagine approaching the end of your life, looking back and having to face the fact that you were never real.

I’m sympathetic to the vegan cause because I think fundamentally there’s a disdain for the practices of the food industry behind it. I was vegan for a few years, and vegetarian before that for even longer. There are definitely returns on eating less processed foods, but those returns seem to be diminishing after the first year or so. Seems like a lot of people are realizing this as I’m seeing a number of people I know moving away from veganism.

For me, I think it was the bioavailability of protein and nutrients. I feel much healthier with meat as a big part of my diet, and often get comments on how much healthier I look now compared to before. Of course exercise is part of that too.

I still think our food system is fucked. I found a local regenerative Buffalo farm where I am and I’m happy to support them. I can’t always eat like this, but I’m trying to be more aware of the food systems I support. So I think that’s something vegans and carnivores probably have in common.

Spreading this message all day because Trudeau is putting grocery price controls on the table.
