And somewhere in there I'd say there's a fourth decision: When you decide to change your status signaling from things like beauty, power, and material achievement, to things like integrity, competence, and helpfulness.

Almost everyone is geared toward signaling. As social creatures we're deeply wired to signal value to others.

But there's a lot of flexibility in how we signal that.

-We can signal it with shallower things like beauty, lambos, hierarchical dominance, etc. The details will vary between men and women but they have a similar short time preference that few old people on their deathbed wished they had focused more on.

-Or we can signal it with deeper things like integrity, honesty, helpfulness, friendliness, generosity, providing unique thoughts, or providing wisdom. The details will vary based on profession and skillset but they also have a similar long time preference that most old people on their deathbed wished they had focused more on.

And what would #nostr use this space for?

I was chatting with the fiber internet installer the other day, I mentioned how crazy inflation was, he agreed and started talking about the government printing money and how the fiat dollar was done.

I was like, he gets it!! And then he said, ‘yeah it’s all going to crypto, do you know how fast XRP does transfers’. I said, XRP is not centralized, it is a security. He said, ‘no, it’s decentralized but the government wants it centralized.’ I said, no, it has a group of people, a foundation and pre-minted coins, the code can be changed, etc.. Bitcoin is the only truly decentralized digital asset.

He said, ‘Bitcoin was created by the CIA, so it’s government owned already’…. I said, ‘that is not a fact, that is a conspiracy theory’. He went back to how Ripple had faster transaction times… I said ‘Thank You, bye 👋’…

What's your daily driver in terms of nostr client(s)?
