Yes it does. I have seen the affects in my life. Keto-carnivore.

I usually do most of my posting on primal. It is easier to format.

I believe you can. I have mine tied into the alby extension on brave. Pretty flawless. I have tried snort but like primal better.

It is a strange thing being in charge of the disposition of jet engine parts for overhauls. You are in charge of scrapping million dollar parts for a very small dent or scratch.

This happens everyday to keep civilian and military airplanes flying safely.

When I was carving, it was work. I did get to where I hated it. However, it think what I miss are the galleries and the artists. Good art is pleasing to the soul. Hang in there! I pray your side hustle takes off.

Good morning nostr!

Making a decision can be a super power!

Cheers!

If you are an engineer or an aspiring engineer, become a student of how things are made. Learn the different types of manufacturing that exist in your field. It will make you a far better designer and engineer.

Random thought before I go to bed: package your knowledge and sell it as products.

10 hours worked is 10 hours traded away. But 10 hours spent on a product can be resold many times over.

Most people think they don’t have enough information to turn into a product, but they don’t realize that everyone is at a different level where a product too many levels ahead may not be the best suited. Someone is always a level below you who can probably use the knowledge you have, or the experience you have particularly because you are a level above them and not 10 levels above them.

Obvious product ideas and relative purchase prices:

- Books ($)

- Knowledge bases ($$) - curated information

- Courses ($$-$$$)

- Personal newsletters ($-$$$$) - build a list

- Digital products / packages of products (design, code, art, video production, illustrated works, animations, kits, templates, boilerplates, plugins, themes, music)

- Memberships to product suite (for example yearly access to designs)

- Communities (some paid communities making well over 6 figures)

- Startups

Once you have an audience, it’s easier to sell more products to the same people because they are already willing to pay once, so they may pay again.

“But, I don’t have time!” Who does? No one has time for anything, but we make some anyway. Nights, weekends.

We have incredible tools to do everything and automate most of the work already.

Don’t forget to reuse everything you create. Recored a video? Turn it into shorts, transcripts into notes, video into podcast and into audio soundbites. Transcript into long form blog posts, into books. Take a bunch of videos and make a course. 

While you do all of this you’ll see what’s missing from the market and can quickly create products to meet demand.

Don’t spend too much time making the wrong thing too. Create a bit, pitch it to people who may be interested and ask them to pre-pay. If no one pays, chances are it’s not good enough. Back to drawing board.

Time-box everything. Give yourself impossible deadlines. You’ll fail to meet them but you’ll get way more done. 

That is all. Good night! 💤😴😘

Awesome information! Thanks!

When going through engineering school, I saw this quote on someone’s notebook.

It stated:

“Progress is still progress no matter how small.”

That helped me through many classes! And life!

Good morning nostr!

Today is a good day to start the practice of “kaizen” in your life!

Kaizen is a Japanese term that translates to "continuous improvement." It refers to the practice of making small, incremental changes over time to enhance processes, systems, or products in order to achieve gradual and sustainable advancements.

THE INCREDIBLE PRECISION OF INCA STONEWORK

_______________

Name the modern stonework that rivals the precision and closeness of fit that ancient Inca walls have in places like Cuzco, Peru.

Such closeness of fit where you cannot place a business card in-between the stones. The ancient Inca had more skill and technology than we think to be able to accomplish such mastery.

Their level of craftsmanship is very hard to duplicate with todays machinery and I have not seen a modern example that rivals it.

Every organization rises to the level of incompetence that it is comfortable with accepting.
