As long as mommy and daddy keep fixing things, the lessons will not be learned and will continue repeating.

When you get in a way of natural efficiency mechanisms you are only delaying and amplifying the pain of the future.

I still have Twitter via the Damus account for mostly PR and tech support, but its so hard to open these days. It feels a lot like watching CNN or something. First thing that was shown to me when I opened it up the other day was a video of two random people fighting ?? Twitter is the new TV.

Everytime I open nostr it feels like hanging out with a bunch of friends. Very different vibe. Hope that never changes.

Following the fed's recent campaign to shut down crypto friendly banks. I considered:

What would happen if my fiat bank shut me down?

What would happen if the fed ended cash for cdbc?

Well on the first, i would have trouble paying my property taxes. Otherwise, id have shelter, food and security provided for. Everything else is optional.

On the latter, well, stacken sats.

What about you?

Wierd brain sh!t I stopped sharing with friends and family years ago.

Would be nice if there were a news aggregator on Nostr that pulls top headlines from the fiat world, so Bitcoiners are aware of what’s going on without having to leave Nostr. Maybe called, “Fiat News Today” or “Fiat News of Nostr”

"Michelangelo was best known as a sculptor, not a painter. Yes, he had done some painting, but primarily small pieces - little in the way of frescoes and nothing on this scale [painting for the Sistine Chapel]. Yet Pope Julius II chose Michelangelo for the job. The Pope was adhering to the Medici philosophy of patronage: choose someone who is clearly talented, then assign him an impossible task - do so even if he seems like a bad fit, especially if he seems like a bad fit. Think of how different that approach is from ours today. We only hire applicants for jobs once we've determined they are a perfect fit. We only assign tasks to those who have already demonstrated they can perform that same exact task. We treat risk not as a noble venture, a dance with the universe, but as something to be avoided at all costs, or at least reduced to a decimal point. And we wonder why we're not living in another Renaissance?"

This is how I look at the world: What is the highest quality thing you can do while you are here?

I think most of his stuff is via notifications not dms. I can check but I’m tired. It’s not helpful not being able to report odd bugs that maybe only a handful of people rarely run into if you can’t pay. It’s a good gesture nonetheless. A better way would be to just hire him some place and pay a good salary and let him work on Damus 30% of the time. Block or Cashapp might actually be good candidates to do this as their goals and vision may align with Nostr’s longevity.

Can you do that with videos? I had to use video instead of a screenshot

Something like feedback.fish might be even easier for anyone to use. Plus, he’d have to log in to check so it’s not always popping up in the face.

Yeah, I had DMed him a minor quality of life issue that I wanted to see if he was aware of or could potentially change.

I feel bad to contribute to is apathy towards his app.

I’m in TestFlight, is there a way to formally report an issue? At least that way his dms and mentions won’t be spammed with negative things.

Besides nostr-related stuff, what’s the coolest app on your phone?

You win this time 😒

Bitcoin does more than dismantle the fiat central banking system.

It dismantles the 2,000 year reign of the Roman Empire, Order of Malta, Society of Jesus, the Black Nobility and the Rothschild central banking empire.

These groups used gold and silver collection and banking to fund wars, destabilize countries, tax and steal human natural resources, and usher in human cattle tagging (birth certificates and travel passports).

Its all coming down. And it will be glorious.

And all they can do is watch.
