I know I'm a petty man, but watching ETH price in bitcoin terms fall and fall and fall is glorious.
I've also been pondering this.
I'm generally opposed to handing kids smartphones, at least until they're teens. But at that point you could use parental controls to whitelist clients that have built in features that prevent certain content (i.e. "teen friendly", whatever that is..). Challenge with nostr is its benefit; openness. There are so many ways to access the protocol and find nsfw content..
Thinking out loud: What about a solution where you are the father-npub, and for the son/daughter-npub to see any content it needs to be approved by you (e.g. followed by you or those you follow). Of course, they could spin up their own npubs and work their way around that pretty quickly when they understand how nostr works.
I'm pragmatic on this topic.. and when it comes to kids and smartphones I think growing up without one fits most, if not all.

It's the tragedy of the commons. Parents don't take responsibility because they don't see (or don't want to see) that this is a collective problem with long term consequences not only for their own kids. But to avoid their kids "being left out" they're handing them the internet in their pocket, powered by an addiction engine.
So as a parent trying to fight this trend tooth and nail, I'll take any help I can get. In Norway the trust in the state is higher than most places, so a state ban (or even recommendation) will trickle into the school system and be an ally.
Something is wrong on my end I guess. I'm suspecting it is related to my network, but not sure why/how.
Are you splitting hash and mining towards all three pools simultaneously using braiins os? Didn't know that was possible.
ck pool also good, it seems.
Now I switched it to braiins pool, and it seems to work as expected. The top line is ck pool, will test that also. 
Any miners out there that explain these parameters - or point me in the direction of an explanation? This is braiins OS.
The active pool is publi-pool.io. It doesnt trigger any other parameters than "generated work". When I direct hash to braiins pool there is more activity on the other parameters.

I support this here in Norway too.
There is no conflict between being nostr only and wholeheartedly supporting that kids are kept away social media platforms. I mean, nobody should be on those platforms..
These addiction machines of surveillance capitalism are obviously harmful for us adults even with fully developed frontal cortices. Imagine the harm it does on millions (billions?) of kids in the most critical years of development, and what the opportunity cost is. We are losing out on the collective cognitive development of our species. This is in line with arguments put forth by people who have put down a lot of solid work on the topic, such as Desmurget, Twenge, Haidt etc.
Adults need open protocols and free speech. Kids of all ages need to be outdoors playing, doing fun&games, fight and resolve issues, push limits, do stupid stuff they can learn from.
There are no good reasons kids should have smartphones. Parents are simply justifying their own poor choices by hiding behind false claims. We all know it, smartphones are helpful babysitters when we're tired as hell, but it comes with a significant cost that is mostly hidden in a vail of low time preference.
I'm dying on this hill. Onwards.
Kompis jobber i Tomra, har kanskje nevnt et par ganger.. at de burde fikse sats for tomflasker. Honeybadgers hadde pantet alt, alltid...
I was there, and that's why I bought (and read) your book.
Can you imagine buying lottery tickets when you can decentralize the hashrate solomining with a bitaxe, a nerdminer or an old S9?
it's amazing just to solo mine!
Hi! One of the two bitaxes I bought is up and running, using public-pool. The other one I have tried on public-pool, ck pool and braiins, but it's not able to connect. Any advice on what to do next?
Aha, nice thanks. My NerdMiner has connected back to public pool now, so I'll check if the bitaxes can get connected.
Yes, can see IP on both displays and can access them for config/settings
It does connect to wifi, and I have been able to reach both public pool and braiins. One of them hashed for a few hours yesterday on around 450gh/s, but mow both are idle. Strange.
