Got list for 3 days in the foothills of the hymalayas in China and got fed and sheltered and had a great laugh with people I could only commuicate with hand gestures. Fantastic experience

Stay safe. Make sure you got plenty fresh water just in case

Massive projects. One with a brand new golf course in a water stressed area where locals are being denied permits to build due to lack of water. Just look on Google and you can see the coast on North Pacific side. May not be so easy without before and after cause you don’t see the wetlands, estuaries etc that used to be there. One local wetland near me is going to be a Walmart and a housing development behind. It’s been nice watching the birds return year after year. I hope they find somewhere suitable close by

Alex, ill try to give you a good real live community test for ditto but been to busy to try to get the right people together. Working on it

Great farm visit today. Think we can work to expand bitcoin economy here. Need to find the time to onboard for the nostr market place idea.

Then I get home and look on one of the local group chats where someone is looking for a place to rent up to 5k usd per month. The urgency for circular economies in Costa Rica is clear but it’ll be interesting to see if social cohesion can stand this insane cantillionaire effect of high budget North Americans flooding the country. It grows and grows and poster child of GDP in the media whilst talking to tico friends they’re concerned with the incredible levels of environmental destruction and increasing poverty index. Crazy days of change. Build your communities cause the imbalances are increasing y’all!

There, I said it. Nobody seems to want to say this out loud in my community. Print money in big economies and then go exporting that fiat fuckery to other countries. Not sure where this goes to be honest but it’s so fast it’s hard to truly comprehend

I use nostr:nprofile1qydhwumn8ghj7emvv4shxmmwv96x7u3wv3jhvtmjv4kxz7gqyp2x308wkaxwxh95zu7uext5hhdvn6y55a9l84z0nj5tw42xqhy76kavkvg because I'm a thoughtful person with the ability to do it. But the world does not use Graphene or Obtainium/FossDroid/etc, so I cannot build a native app with the idea that average people will truly have the freedom to install it.

Modern development is only worth while if leveraging network effects which are essentially only accessible through walled gardens? That’s quite a challenge to overcome

Fiat is a financial instrument

Fractional reserve is a financial instrument

Tax slavery is a financial instrument

War is a financial instrument

Freedom is the personal sovereignty achieved by unshackling from predation of your energy by those who perceive its abuse as being merely a financial instrument

Drill baby drill seemed odd to me as oil production high until I realised its more about LNG exports. There's massive natural gas potential and a huge number of gas DUCs. Is there a tax on exports that offsets some of these tax cuts? Keeping in mind nord stream 2 destroyed and now syria potentially in a situation of not connecting up Qatar or Iran through pipelines, its large revenue stream but no idea on state revenue generation. Just a brain fart
