Haven’t train for 3 weeks. Will go back to the gym tomorrow. Need to feel strong and capable about my body.
Tax Return is a fiat scam. Why not just don't charge that %?
I have an inappropriate joke here
Oh, I'm not the invester here. I'm just a guest. I'm here to observe and learn more about Icelandic start-up community.
But yes, I am suprised by how many NGO or non-profit funding Europe has. It's just a very different model from USA.
Non-profit funding are necessary to solve social problems that can't make money but important. However, there are also people who just creates NGO for the purpose of getting grants from these fundings which is like the worst part of Capitalism and Socialism combined without true vision or executions. That's why non-profit orgs are usually not efficient at solving problems or at least that's my bias.
I don't have enough knowledge to judge yet. All my comments are my Silicon Valley bias. Khan Academy is a great non-profit and I admire people who do non-profit with honesty and results.
PS: This note is not a reply to you, but just me typing my weird brain out.
Maybe this is a joke inside another joke and joke recursion so that we can't even tell if it's a joke before running out of stack unless you stack more.
Most people got this wrong. Most businesses don't need to create their own software or website or app.
They just need to have a Discord/Facebook or whatever social media group and manage their user there.
But these platforms are exclusive and almost impossible to customize.
With Nostr, you can operate your business and engage with your users directly, just like traditional social media.
But the difference is, once you want flexibility, you can just create your own client without users having to sign-up for another thing. Seemless user migrations by NO Migration!
Users don't migrate to you. You migrate to your users!
As an individual, yes, we need to work hard. But poverty problem for a large population is only caused by bad politics and systems.
I have seen nearly 10 pitches during this start-up hackthon and most of they are still thinking about vertical marketplace or o2o platforms such as platform to find friends, babysitters or pets.
No offense to Icelanders or European friends. But small vertical just can't become a sustainable internet business. E-commerce and O2O (online to offline) always need to be a "platform of everything" to become profitable and substainable.
It's very difficult to operate a vertical platform unless you can reduce the cost dramatically.
What Iceland or small countries need is a good generic O2O platform for most things. This platform will be generic yet flexible enough so that each vertical can be operated on top of it without creating seprate software.
Nostr to the rescue. Vertical business can hugely benifit from Nostr because they don't have to create standalone software and buy in all sorts of cost of building a software. They can just use Nostr to commerce and win.
I will start an Iceland Nostr Meetup.
We will announce it during NostrAsia

But I think they will have more events like this. The local start-up community is providing some help for Ukrainians. I have seen 2 Ukrainian teams out of 10. The number is small. But it also means everybody can build connections and socialize.
French & Italian excluded. They know how to cook. Mostly just British & American.
But by veges, by no means I am referring to how white people cook their veges. White people veges are violation to human rights.
Let me rephrase, it's good for you to take a smooth shit because of fibre.
