I record people telling their life stories. Most of my clients are farm families. I have a podcast: The Ag Tribes Report

Magnolia flower in full bloom

This Citadel Dispatch podcast with #[0]​ is a great example of an advanced conversation. They discuss the past history of things like Silk Road and why commodity traders saw the value of bitcoin, they talked about layer 2 protocols and how innovation is driven by necessity and they had real conversations about economics.

Too many BTC podcasts are saying the same thing- this episode was all signal, explaining things even long time players wouldn’t know or realize. https://fountain.fm/episode/JEsr2BsF94DOvYM3IONo

No I’m not. I have clients and I need to buy groceries and buy airline tickets in the US

My favorite guest is a man named Joscha Bach I just had him on for the third time.

we talked about mistaken compassion, why moms are drugging themselves with ssri’s, how to get over addiction, why churches are failing in the modern age.

My audience is largely comprised of farmers and some of this will offend them and other parts will make intuitive sense. I wonder what nostr will think…

Wild article from the best writer in all of agriculture- Chris Bennet

“Let me be clear: Without the Judas goats, there were not enough men in south Omaha to move 1,000-plus sheep up a ramp because the sheep would bunch up or balk. In other words, the plant was truly dependent on the Judas goats to betray the sheep.” https://www.agweb.com/news/livestock/beef/slaughterhouse-kings-recalling-creepy-reign-judas-goats

Email is broken.

There is this new email marketing trick where a company sends you one email from a person supposedly wanting to talk about your business and then a few minutes later you get an email from their “manager” saying “I’m just gonna jump in where X person left off and offer to schedule time with you personally.

So now instead of getting one junk email I’m going to delete and block now I have to do 2. I wish there was a way to inflict a cost on them for wasting my time and attention.

I want a system where you have to pay sats to be able to send me an email so that spammers go broke.

There is a special place in hell for people that make online recipes where you have to scroll past pages of exposition to find out how many fucking grams of basil do you need to make pesto

Oh boy- ok I can now detect when someone is sending me a chat gpt email and it instantly pisses me off if the personal email is more than 3-4 sentences long because they are having a system generate noise that they didn’t do proof of work to create. ..ie typing.

It feels insulting. How do you feel about it

I hadn’t even considered that soy/corn was counted as a cereal as I was just thinking wheat barley.

As for the impact of market regulation. I talk about this all the time. We have literally no idea how much our crop land would change as for uses if the government finger wasn’t pushing the scale so hard for ethanol and crop insurance based off last 3-5 year look backs.

Just like how the landscape changers when you let ecology go in a natural way (beavers create damns which generate oxbows and lakes) our physical environment would be nearly unrecognizable if the scales were pushed even slightly less bit that won’t happen until the centralized government runs out of money.

Hahahah this is Kevin kelly who started wired magazine wrote a book that reminds me of Benjamin Franklin. nostr:note1lze833pz855mc35qw0nhhen30ga2kmpzjarfrha9p8h808jz3slsnwgsns
