A new guy started in my office about 19 years ago and I remember when he told us he was living with his parents, I was like, "nice, no rent, save some money." He replied "I pay rent in dignity" 😂

It was funny almost 20 years ago, but today it's a literal tragedy the number of people in their 20s still living with their parents.

Interoperable with lightning though. Plus easier to become a mint than to launch a custodial lightning or Bitcoin wallet, so there should be a lot more competition.

I'm finally getting bullish on ecash after listening to nostr:npub12rv5lskctqxxs2c8rf2zlzc7xx3qpvzs3w4etgemauy9thegr43sf485vg on nostr:npub1sk7mtp67zy7uex2f3dr5vdjynzpwu9dpc7q4f2c8cpjmguee6eeq56jraw

I think ecash will really be what makes P2P payments take off.

This new stuff people are doing with Open AI’s Canvas and Operator feels like a major shift of how we build software.

Look at these videos: https://x.com/minchoi/status/1883554868293779898

And then there’s Deepseek’s new R1 model which is open source, can run on a decent desktop computer, and is better than anything openAI has done with regards to coding… almost as good as claude sonnet… I put $10 in to deepseek and have been using it a lot, only to have spent a few cents!

This stuff is improving so fast, and the cost is dropping so much… it’s hard to keep up.

Look at this, you can run your own RAG at o1 levels using deepseek r1!

I think we’re seeing Open Source win against big proprietary tech platforms, and it really makes me feel better about the AI future.

One question here, is why aren’t we talking more about what we can do with it on Nostr? I know folks are excited about bitcoin, which is cool, but look at what we can start doing with the AI… Who’s talking about it on Nostr? How do we use AI and these. emerging open models in building / using nostr… i know we’ve got DVM’s but that’s kind of a limited job request system.

a while ago nostr:npub1az9xj85cmxv8e9j9y80lvqp97crsqdu2fpu3srwthd99qfu9qsgstam8y8 put unleashed.chat out there and that has some nostr integration, but not really at the scale you're talking about

There are periods of history where normal people end up making discoveries, inventing new technologies or otherwise sparking massive changes to how society functions. But every day, before and after they changed the course of humanity, they would still say GM to somebody.

HRCC is great resource for most radio things. This is one of his shorter videos on meshtastic. Otherwise https://meshtastic.org is a good start too

Do you think if I got 4-5 people from our meetup group it would be enough to start a little network around here (assume we all live in a like 20 mile radius in Western Massachusetts)?

As someone who works closely with regulations and regulators in a highly regulated industry (commercial nuclear power), cutting governmental departments isn't going to have a huge impact on government spending (they aren't going to cut military, Entitlement programs or interest payments), but they will finally get the government out of the way of actual free market innovation.

Really hoping for some big cuts at the NRC... Probably won't happen.

Hanging with some local bitcoiners today to talk philosophical and physical implications of Bitcoin 😎

Best place to start for a beginner to learn more about meshtastic from a bitcoiners perspective? Have you done any pods on these things?

Thanks!

I had a joke about social security... But you probably won't get it. 😂

Yes. And it's not the end, it's the beginning.

Bitcoin saves your time on earth, Jesus saves your time forever.

Hasn't your mother ever told you that a watched transaction never confirms 🙂
