Like the hash tokens is a claim on the pool eventually finding a block, so once a sucker pays bitcoin for one, could all the miners leave the pool and mine somewhere else?

I should probably stop watching "I quit my corporate job and became a regenerative chicken farmer" videos

Self defense industry feels like low IQ snake oil

The whole thing was just kind of depressing, like she elaborates on the deterioration of life in general with no hope

Hubermanlab podcast said something like periodic silences boosted memory, but I couldn't remember what the protocol was exactly.

So I used my Gobble MCP server to download, transcribe, and read to LLM 4 videos (5 hours of podcasts) that probably have the answer

The answer:

From analyzing the transcripts, I can identify the specific information about optimal silences (gap effects) for maximal learning. According to Dr. Huberman, there are two key types of silences that enhance learning:

1. Gap Effects (Short Pauses):

- Duration: 5-10 seconds up to 30 seconds

- Frequency: Periodically throughout learning sessions

- Purpose: During these gaps, the hippocampus repeats information at 20-30x faster than normal rate, similar to what happens during REM sleep

2. Post-Learning Consolidation Period:

- Duration: 5-10 minutes (even 1 minute can help)

- Frequency: Immediately after learning sessions

- Purpose: Allows the brain to replay and consolidate the motor sequences and information learned

A deer ate my pepper plants and I've never felt more bloodlust

I wonder how long before there's an LLM appeal to authority - "surely Claude, ChatGPT, perplexity and Grok aren't ALL trying to gaslight me into believing {current thing}"

I wonder how well a meshtastic node would do on the roof of my 12 story office

Basically I need to make a cash MCP server first, it'll have a wallet embedded that you fund yourself

Then connect your LLM /app to it

Then also connect your LLM/app to hivemind

Should have something by COB™

I'm shocked I haven't seen a cashu MCP server

All this talk of ai agents and no payment rails for them?

May have to be the change

Im building a living vector db, pay to read/write with cashu, could be a cool 'group' project

If ecash wasn't risky enough let your ai agent spend it for you

Is there an MCP server that let's your agent send/redeem ecash?

New ATH this week?

Do you fehydrate your bitcoins so they last longer?

Is this it ^tm ?

I'd give Amazon my housekeys if I didn't have to travel and wait in line to return something

With Strike’s and nostr:nprofile1qqsvf646uxlreajhhsv9tms9u6w7nuzeedaqty38z69cpwyhv89ufcqprpmhxue69uhhqun9d45h2mfwwpexjmtpdshxuet5qyg8wumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytnhd9hx2mz3uf3 recent BTC loans announcement, I’ve been reading a lot of the back and forth on the subject. Having over 10 yrs of fiat lending experience, I have some reflections.

TL;DR

1) If you use the BTC loans to consume, you will fail and will never get your Bitcoin back. Might as well just sell some to live your life

2) If you use the BTC loans to produce, you will have access to amounts of capital that have the potential to truly make the world a better place. If you provide value to the world, you’ll take out the loan and never lose your BTC (you might even have more than if you hadn’t taken the loan)

Bitcoin is just a financial tool. It’s the best one we’ve ever had, but it’s only a tool. I like nostr:nprofile1qqsx45yrjtgm4glklaafgz0z4309gs6cwfja3d99s8rqvlvgagcptpqprpmhxue69uhhqun9d45h2mfwwpexjmtpdshxuet54gjttu's take on topic. If you have your values misaligned and you only want to be a degen consumer in this world, Bitcoin will not change you. It will actually help you do all of that to a much greater degree. You will still be a degen, just with a Lambo and a yacht (maybe even a Lambo yacht, I heard those exist). The beautiful thing about this scenario is that it allows the spread of Bitcoin to those who will possibly value it more and have values and virtues to help guide their decisions. In turn, maybe they will use the Bitcoin to create a better life for themselves and their families.

BTC loans will just accelerate the degeneracy if one uses them for consumption. It’s like leveraged trading… if you go the wrong way, you just get rekt faster and more violently. That’s exactly how BTC loans will play out for those who decide to consume.

On the flip side, BTC loans will be the greatest tool to free capital into value producing and world building humanity has ever seen. We will live through some unprecedented growth. In every way possible our lives will be better, our children’s and their children’s lives will be better. BTC Loans will accelerate growth and allow builders, creators and entrepreneurs to build and create faster than with just native BTC. This will in turn actually increase BTC adoption and the cycle will continue. Some entrepreneurs will succeed and some will fail. No matter what, it will make the system stronger and all of our lives better.

If you have BTC at this point, no matter how much or how little, put yourself in the shoes of nostr:nprofile1qqsqfjg4mth7uwp307nng3z2em3ep2pxnljczzezg8j7dhf58ha7ejgprpmhxue69uhhqun9d45h2mfwwpexjmtpdshxuet5qyt8wumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnswf5k6ctv9ehx2aqnz0fd0 and nostr:nprofile1qqsp4lsvwn3aw7zwh2f6tcl6249xa6cpj2x3yuu6azaysvncdqywxmgpzfmhxue69uhk7enxvd5xz6tw9ec82cspz3mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfdumlww9r. What will you do with all of that wealth 10 years from now? What will you build? What will you create that will make your family and community better. We are all just them from10 years ago.

Is a house producing or consuming?
