It's telling when I'm happy getting a zap half that size. But if someone hands me one of those, I'd honestly give it back. I'd rather have an empty pocket than deal with touching a dirty piece of trash everytime I put my hands in my pocket.

Ok... Ive noticed that everytime I'm quick scrolling thru nostr and I happen to glance and see nostr:npub1rxysxnjkhrmqd3ey73dp9n5y5yvyzcs64acc9g0k2epcpwwyya4spvhnp8 streak of blonde hair in the thumbnails, I have the sudden urge to get up amd do something bitcoiny. Like lemme go set up a coldcard. Or configure a multisig real quick. Or do a cheeky coinjoin for shits and giggles.

No? just me?

Yes! I think human nature remains largely the same but there's so much environmental and circumstantial entropy that can happen to affect generational knowledge and information flows as you put it.

here’s an Ai-powered recap of the day

March 22,2024

1. Kate Middleton's Cancer

Princess Kate Middleton's public announcement of her cancer diagnosis and undergoing chemotherapy treatment has sparked widespread reactions from the public, media, and fellow royals. The news has led to an outpouring of support and discussions about cancer awareness and treatment.

2. Moscow Attack

A deadly terrorist attack unfolds at a Moscow concert hall, with gunmen in combat fatigues opening fire on the crowd, resulting in 40 deaths and over 100 wounded. The Kremlin confirms casualties, sparking investigations into the tragic event that shocked the world.

3. Ceasefire Veto

Russia and China vetoed a US resolution at the UN Security Council calling for an immediate cease-fire in Gaza. The resolution aimed to address the conflict between Israel and Hamas, but faced opposition from the two countries, leading to its failure.

4. Motion Vacate

House Speaker Mike Johnson faces a threat from GOP Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, who filed a motion to vacate his position after Johnson violated the Hastert Rule to pass a $1.2 trillion government funding plan, sparking a contentious debate within the Republican Party.

5. Oakland Upset

Oakland's Jack Gohlke's historic 10 three-pointers led to a stunning 80-76 upset over Kentucky in March Madness, creating a viral sensation and leaving less than 1% of perfect brackets. Gohlke's heroics dominated sports headlines and social media, solidifying his status as a basketball star.

6. Trump's Windfall

Digital World Acquisition Corp shareholders approved a merger with Truth Social, potentially giving Donald Trump billions. The move could pay Trump's legal bills, but critics warn it may be too late for the controversial social media platform launched after the Capitol insurrection. DWAC stock fell post-approval.

7. Spring Deals

Amazon's Big Spring Sale offers a wide range of deals on fashion, fitness products, beauty items, tech gadgets, home essentials, and more. From cast iron cookware to noise-canceling headphones, shoppers can find discounts on popular brands and products.

8. England Kit

Nike's new England football kit featuring a colorful St. George's Cross has sparked controversy and a culture war. Critics argue the design strays from tradition, prompting petitions and calls for changes, while others defend the playful update, highlighting past kit controversies and political implications.

9. Kendrick Shots

Kendrick Lamar's new track "Like That" is seen as a diss towards Drake and J. Cole, sparking a rap beef. The lyrics have caused a stir on social media, with fans and media outlets analyzing the shots thrown and potential fallout in the industry.

10. Apple Antitrust

The US Department of Justice files a massive antitrust lawsuit against Apple, accusing the tech giant of monopolizing the smartphone market. Apple's market cap falls, shareholders are warned, and comparisons are drawn to past antitrust battles, sparking widespread discussion and concern over the company's alleged abuse of power.

I read this in NPR... "Im ser sleepy, and this, is NosPR news"

Interesting thought, I don't think so. Well also yes. Sorta. An internet-like system of information distribution, knowledge transfer, and communication? Yeah sure, but maybe not electronically as we know it today. Boiled down to the bare essence, throughout time, most of the problems and questions each generation faces remain relatively the same, it's the solutions that change and evolve based on current state of culture and technoligy.

If we consider how far we have advanced particularly in electronics, our evolution of knowledge, so to speak, took a very specific path, spanning the entirety of our known recorded human history to get here.

It took luck and skill from the brightest minds, focusing on one particular advancement at a time, and it wasn't until the culmination of all those leaps and advancements coalesced over time to bring about the internet.

It takes an incidentally coordinated and both globally/generationally decentralized proof of work to get to where we are today.

What did it take to actually get the internet? It takes a lot of components for the internet to work. Lets just pull on just one of those threads. Internet requires computers/microprocessors. Those require silicon. Well silicon must be mined. Mining requires heavy machinery. Well that requires metal and metallurgy. So on and so on. All that requires sufficient advancement in each of those different fields to lead to just one component of the internet. Each of these also have an evolutionary path of their own. Any one small change in history is enough to force a deficit in advancement in one area and potentially a surplus in another. This over time, shifts human understanding and likely humanity forges a different answer to a similar problem.

So imagine a prior ancient civilization. Let's assume they are as "advanced" as we are. Maybe they dont have electronic internet but perhaps their superior advances in agriculture or economics or culturally allow them dream up technologies we couldn't imagine. Perhaps they got so damn good at gardening they figured out how to grow plants with roots in mesopotamia and have the flowers bloom at stone henge. Crazy? I mean we got so good at electricity that a dumdum like me can teleport my thoughts across a glass box to other humans around the world instantly.

So Perhaps.
