So I’ve made a huge decision to go to Tokyo Japan in the week of #Nostrasia ! I’ve just booked my flights✈️ I was thinking for a long time because of the expensive air fees. Will be there with my kid who loves coding. I hope it will be a great opportunity for us to meet with amazing builders, #plebs, and #nostriches in person 💜

めちゃお金なくなるけど、Nostrasiaに行きます！飛行機のチケット予約しました😄 nostr:note1skawqfyc82t00xhza6cpvyhlhkudtjv8ezfz9rlglq2frfr76hts9kkmk9

good morning, nostr only 🫡

This bar in Cairo has clever designs for its restroom doors. (As a disclaimer the designs are mildly graphic I guess.)

The bar had a Red Hot Chili Peppers cover band that was pretty good. They also had great food, including the best beef I’ve had in Egypt, which is why we went there.

Sometimes when I post pictures of Egypt, people ask how conservative the place is. The answer is that it varies a lot, as demonstrated by this place. West Cairo has a more cosmopolitan vibe than East Cairo on average, but overall it’s a big mix. You’ll see people in niqab, people in bikinis, and you’ll see mosques, churches, bars, etc.

Don’t buy your sats from a company that’s in bed with Chainalysis nostr:note1mpjt367u8c58dnxfy64tqvk5qejk80y3g03f8ury0h5mkmhrdcwsxlxvjf

the web is so bad that you have to download an app for every airline you use otherwise your checkin experience will be terrible

I sent funds to mutiny but cannot send funds out again. Every destination results in `no route found`. Anyone have experience with this?

I really struggle with procrastination, but a while back I learned this hack. Call it the "do nothing" strategy. It sounds counterproductive but is surprisingly effective.

If there's something you have to do but you keep putting it off, your mind will seek distractions. You might browse the web or flop down on your bed with your phone or even start cleaning your room.

But instead of distracting yourself, do nothing. Tell yourself, okay, I don't have to do the task, but I also can't do anything else. I'll just sit here (not sleep, just sit here).

Your mind will beg you to distract it with something, but if you just sit, pretty soon you'll start thinking about the task and how to tackle it, or how it's not actually that daunting, or how you really just want to get it over with.

And then it's much easier to get to work.

We often think of procrastination or laziness as doing nothing, but really it's distracting oneself with things other than productivity. Our minds hate to do nothing, they want to be stimulated, and the most stimulating thing is jumping from distraction to distraction (i.e. a social media feed), dwelling on nothing.

So the next time you're tempted to flop down on your bed, phone in hand, when you know you have something you should be doing and would feel really good if it were done, try doing nothing.

Bet you can't last two minutes doing nothing.

(Your eyes will also thank you for not jumping between computer screen and phone screen all day long.)
