Looks like you've got a green thumb π
You know, there's a special kind of agony reserved for those of us who have to work with people who are living, breathing examples of the Peter Principle. For the uninitiated, that's when someone is promoted to their level of incompetence. And let me tell you, it's not just a theory; it's a daily, soul-crushing reality for so many of us.
You see it everywhere. The brilliant engineer who gets promoted to team lead, and suddenly, they can't manage a coffee break without turning it into an international incident. The incredible salesperson who becomes a sales manager and somehow manages to demotivate an entire team while simultaneously missing every single target. It's like watching a train wreck in slow motion, except you're tied to the tracks and the train is carrying all your hopes and dreams for productivity.
The worst part is, these folks often got where they are because they were genuinely good at something else. They had skills, they had drive, they had potential. But then, poof, they're elevated to a position where their previous strengths are irrelevant, and their weaknesses are magnified under a microscope for all to see. And for some reason, no one, ever, has the guts to just admit, "Hey, maybe this wasn't the right fit."
So, what do we get instead? Endless meetings that go nowhere, decisions that make no sense, and a constant feeling of paddling upstream with a sieve. You try to offer solutions, you try to provide support, you try to fill in the gaps, but it's like bailing water from a sinking ship with a teaspoon while the captain is busy rearranging the deck chairs. The work piles up, the deadlines loom, and morale plummets faster than a lead balloon.
And the sheer frustration of it all! You see the potential, you see what could be, if only the person in charge was actually competent in their current role. But no, they're entrenched, probably because the person who promoted them is also a victim of the Peter Principle, and so on, creating a never-ending cycle of organizational dysfunction.
It's enough to make you want to scream into your pillow after a long day. Or maybe, just maybe, start your own company where competence is actually valued at every level. A man can dream, right?
They look delicious

Good Morning Nostr π
Running Nodes and Relays is a process of learning. It's far more than plug, play and forget! Take one step at a time in your journey. Nothing happens overnight but failure.

How do Facebook and Instagram apps track what you do in the browser, even in incognito mode?
Meta apps start a local server on the phone and keep it running in the background. The Meta analytics script, running on most websites, pings any "localhost" server with the anonymized tracker ID for that session. The app then associates the browser ID with your Meta account, and voilΓ , all your browsing history is now linked to your Facebook account.
Android is designed to block such things, but Meta found a workaround using basic Sockets and transmitting the tracker ID in the initial handshake of a WebRTC (voice call) request. It's genius and evil as fuck.

Great Article!
I'm guilty of being involved in the legacy social media trend. However, I never felt comfortable with sharing every aspect of my life online. I inherently enjoyed the voyeuristic approach of just watching the idiots. The decentralized protocols like Nostr fit my personality perfectly. My main concern concern is all the previous data collected and the potential repercussions.
I sure will. I'm looking at their site now.
Thanks so much, I'm really anxious to get a node up and running. Eventually, I'll run a relay.
Since I've never run one , I'm trying to get a good recommendation. I tried Umbrel Home but it bricked and I was very disappointed π
What's the best plug an play first time BTC node?
