Bitcoin Pleb & Econ larper. Paying bills with Product & UX. Love for the tough mountain climbs and manual labor. Currently enrolled in a Blue collar bootcamp. CZ/EN

It's also trying to be Spotify and Spotify being Youtube as well.

Babylon Tower for the tech.

No shape or focus. Just the "growth" at all costs, in all directions.

They gonna have to print so bad.

When China hustle guy takes out their luxury crap & RFK Jr bans their pharma propaganda, 50% of their stock market goes poof and zombie banks start squealing again.

They say the capacity is 250lb on the single pair. But idk if I would trust it. For sure, the plywood and the anchor screws would probably be the first point of failure.

With the 2 drawers out, and just the stove in, it sinks ~2 inches below the level. It seems to be able to keep up with ~40lb static pressure without any big bending. But you probably don't want to risk letting kids using it as monkey bars.

I'm thinking about finding some small height 12v car fridge and then rebuilt it for that custom height. And probably switching just to a single burner for the sake of space savings.

Yea, I transported the plywood sheets for the initial cuts in a little bigger van.

You can just create things as well.

"But who would ever do anything useful if they can't squeeze a profit from it? " - the most shallow understanding of the human action.

"No one would dare to think if the state wouldn't grant monopolies on ideas".

There were the days when he took care coming up with deeper insights and metaphors.

Then, it turned just into AI slob and photo ops with political class.

Is the slob intentional or unintentional signal?

We wouldn't lose anything if they force all unis to go 100% private.

Besides overpaying for the "education" there, it's maybe the biggest misallocation of human life time. All the 20yr olds stuck for 4+ years doing homeworks, and team projects, optimizing just to pass.

If anything, offer the kids subsidized business start up loans, and let them cook. They'll spend it on education if they need one.

There's not many safe havens for the store of value left to play.

Real estate - wrecked

Equities - wrecked

Treasuries - wrecked

Fiat Currencies - not a store of value

Gold - you might get the BCH treatment

Other commodities - either not scarce, or their rapid appreciation would wreck the industry

..

Tick tock.

I've seen so many people that can't even allow themselves to start pondering the thought. It's an attack on their own deep persona.

It's just a form of a bitcoin exchange integrated with coupon clipping.

With a good UX, it makes for a better exchange.

But it does not directly contribute to the parallel Bitcoin ecosystem. Might be even competing against it.

Trading censorship resistance and poor ux for discounts and good UX.

What's your favorite and simplest way to stain or finish?

I always did just some very utilitarian shop pieces, didn't bother with staining or finishing much.

But now trying to do some water and scratch resistant tabletops. And it's a bit of a guessing game.

⚡️🗣️ Can you make a living on Nostr? Here's my feedback:

In 101 days of activity, I received 624,193 satoshis - a huge thank you to everyone!

This represents an average of around 6,180 sats per day, or about $4.50/day, for 7 to 8 hours of daily work.

🔹 My opinion - I think it's possible to make a living from Nostr, but you have to be realistic: it's very hard to get started. Building an audience takes time, consistency and commitment.

I should also point out that my average is skewed by several major donations (notably from nostr:nprofile1qqsf03c2gsmx5ef4c9zmxvlew04gdh7u94afnknp33qvv3c94kvwxgsppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0qy2hwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnyv9kh2uewd9hj73yn3f8 nostr:nprofile1qqs04yxqjhrweg0a8qfmav70kp2gxm86y97ef8ff4zf66gzjxy379tqpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumt0wd68ytnsw43qzxnhwden5te0wfjkccte9ehhyctwvajhq6tvdshxgetkk4vdh3 nostr:nprofile1qqsg8lg8m6dhvve5ejw5dunctsj43ekza2l705xxass5ve7t4mzs63cpz4mhxue69uhkg6t5w3hjuur4vghhyetvv9uszxnhwden5te0wfjkccte9ehx7um5wf6xzmrt9ehhyee0s639rj , to whom I extend my warmest thanks), which have greatly increased the daily average.

In reality, I'm averaging around 1,000 to 2,000 sats/day in normal times, or about $0.73 to $1.46/day, which remains modest for the moment.

But I'm still hopeful, because I feel the potential is there, especially if the ecosystem continues to develop.

🔹 My middle-term goal: 0.1 btc would be incredible

🔹 My long-term goal: 1 btc, I literally stop working and devote myself exclusively to my activity on Nostr.

I've been transparent with you from the start, and I'll continue to be. Thanks again to all of you, and let's continue to make Nostr attractive.

There's a solid chain of proof of work on your npub already. Keep it up.

I see no tradeoffs here. (For the US).

Execution seems like almost no one read the plan, though.

Vibe coding is the PMs revolt against the development constraints.

A code printer in everyone's laptop.

When government nationalizes something, it stops evolving.

When something stops evolving, it starts rotting down.

Fiat is nationalized money.

Money is rotten.

When society uses rotten money, it gets sick.

Haha. Both! Otherwise we can't believe you.

Imagine if Crossfit Open would actually be open.

The apps and communities you can build on top of the shared and open programming.

Our gym uses ChalkitPro for programming and tracking.

- it has lots of data flexibility. Bit the ui is mediocre, ux even a bit worse, and imeven after years of using, I can never find my PRs or other obvious things there.

Biggest pain point:

- workouts are just a single unstructured text fields. You can record and save your score, and if the very same workout shows up in the future, there's easy lookup for your past scores.

- Unfortunately, a single typo or a formatting change in the workout description and the workout is not considered the same, so it's hard to recall your previous scores (weights).

Idea:

- I'd like to see some more intelligent (AI) grouping and pattern matching so that it understands that "4 sets of 5" is the same as "4x5" and similar to "4 x 4-6 reps".

- same for WODs.

- Even use me as a free labor and prompt me to confirm "Is this the same workout?" here and there if necessary

🔥🔥🔥

This must have been one of those tabs I opened to "read more carefully later" and it slipped away!

Just tested it out with njump link of a note, it works like butter. Just requires a lot of manual "spreading" - clicking. But what a way to nail a simple MVP, nostr:nprofile1qqsd4dkxqewy8xum47ctpu0ltgxxsfemeewpjkdyzk9ddfcg286s0dsppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0qywhwumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytnzd96xxmmfdejhytnnda3kjctv9uq36amnwvaz7tmwdaehgu3wvduhq6r9wfc82mnt9e6x7erp0yhs4deh46!

It would be a killer feature if I can do it w/ a single click directly from the client or a browser. Definitely willing to pay with zaps or any other seamless method.
