Colombia is the most abundant country on planet Earth, it blows my mind how much incredible food grows there! What a blessing to call it home!

⚡️🇪🇺 NEW - Europe's largest insect farm goes bankrupt despite receiving almost €200 million in public money.

The French company Ÿnsect has declared bankruptcy and entered judicial liquidation. The project had been presented as a key piece in the transformation of the European food system.

How it started vs How it ended. It didn’t have to be this way, but here we are.

fun bitcoin story that just happened:

I was driving home from sunset on my moto & ran outta gas.

I happened to run out right by this fruit stand that i frequent.

The guy that helps open coconuts and keep the place tidy walked over and made sure i was okay.

He offered to get me some gas and of course i said “si, por favor.”

I asked him if he had a bitcoin wallet. And he said “yes you gave me some bitcoin once, but i lost it”.

Told him that there might be a surprise when i got home in his wallet if I remembered his username.

I did and sent him some sats. You can too if you wish:

😂 I don't know anyone who died from Covid.

It appears now that the enshittification of X is absolute and irrevocable – more than it has ever been in the past. It is the poster child for the dead internet theory.

To the bitcoiners who still spend more time there than on nostr, I have a very simple question: why?

Why are you clinging on to the last vestiges of your spent influence like driftwood? It’s over. The music has stopped.

🚂..

“A good man leaves an inheritance to his children’s children”

‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭13‬:‭22‬ ‭

I’ve never understood the older generations’ desire “not to spoil” their kids. It’s an excuse to spend it on themselves.

If you aren’t leaving an inheritance for your children and your grandchildren what’s the point?

New version of the diVine released to TestFlight. This one focused on lists. I think we should do more with lists in Nostr.

⚡️🇩🇪🇪🇺 NEW - According to German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius, the summer of 2025 was probably "Europe's last summer in peacetime." (interview with Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung)

coping about what exactly

there is a large moneyary investment in this space in centralized nostr (primal) and centralized bitcoin (cashu)

Criticizing any of these? Good luck getting a grant or invited to that next prestigious event.

nostr was more fun when it wasn’t being subverted by money and influence peddling.

Unfortunately they can’t buy me or shut me up. I couldn’t give more of a shit about money or influence.

Beware anyone who tells you there’s an emergency situation and bitcoin needs an immediate fork. This isn’t the value overflow incident of 2010. There is absolutely no crisis.

Hits hard.

⚡️🏆 Finally the owner of 0.04 BTC!

0.04009025 to be exact, I know that for some people, this may seem insignificant, even ridiculous. But I celebrate every little victory in my own way, because that's how I stay motivated.

After more than 300 days of hard work, I can now set myself a realistic goal, say 0.1 BTC by the end of 2026.

I am fortunate to have the unwavering support of many of you. The names I see appearing under my posts are often the same, and I want to repeat this: you are the real driving force behind Flash. The energy that powers it all.

This got me thinking. I would like to develop Flash into something that belongs to all Nostr users, a kind of community-powered account ⤵︎

Imagine if Flash were "co-owned" by the network: everyone who values independent information contributes a little, so that no one person has to fund it all alone. So that Flash's "salary" is spread across many hands, rather than resting on a handful of people.

In exchange, I will continue to do what I do best: provide daily information with consistency, integrity, and passion.

Tell me if my idea is crap. Anyway, my message was to tell you that I have 0.04 BTC

CONTENT CREATION > CONTENT CURATION

We have the freest free speech in the world here on Nostr. Use it! Let Nostr hear what YOU have to say, see what YOU can create, listen to what music YOU can play. Anyone can search other platforms for other people’s content. No one can speak for you. Share YOUR content.

I know a lot about bitcoin and investing and economics, but at one time I knew nothing about any of these things.

20 years ago I knew nothing about investing.

11 years ago I knew nothing about bitcoin.

7 years ago I knew nothing about economics.

So what changed?

Well I was curious and then I followed that curiosity where it took me.

I became obsessed with the things I was obsessed with.

Some people look at how expensive a house is and think they’ll never afford one, other people think “I wonder how I can make it cheaper?” And then they learn to build a house.

Time is going to pass.

Your time is going to pass.

It’s been 10 years since I’ve been in bitcoin.

That time passed and I know plenty of people who have nothing to show for it.

In fact that’s the norm.

I’m the exception.

You know why?

Because they weren’t curious about anything and I am.

I care.

I care about my life, I want things. I believe if others have it so can I.

Somebody out there has the life you want.

You can have it too, but you have to give a shit about yourself.

You have to talk differently to yourself.

You have to focus your energy.

You have to break free and very often you will have to go it alone.

But the time is going to pass regardless and do you really want to have nothing to show for it?

Don’t do it because you need to prove something to other people.

Do it because you’re not living up to your potential otherwise.

Do you want all of the best things about you to remain hidden and buried and to one day rest alongside you in the graveyard?

Or do you want to be who you were meant to be?

It’s your call.

I made my decision some time ago.

Breast milk is delicious

people who believe that if they get an mRNA vaccine they are protected from a virus, but if someone else doesnt get the mRNA vaccine they are now in danger of getting that virus even though the vaccine they recieved still supposedly protects them, are stupid enough not not be allowed to drive on public roads.

I never fully understand why people announce they’re quitting nostr. Kinda makes me think of when people (me included) would say GN but then you’re still online an hour later 😂

1. Governance of attention is the fundamental form of freedom and the primary lever by which individuals and civilizations are made.

Everything else (identity, character, action, institutions, even material conditions over long horizons) is downstream of what gets persistent cognitive airtime.

2. Attention is a commons. Spam, rage bait, and addictive design are not just annoyances; they’re attention pollution that degrades our shared capacity to aim ourselves.

3. Nostr “fixes” this tragedy of the commons not by dictating what to think but by returning the steering wheel of attention to individuals and voluntary communities.

It is, in effect, an attempt to decentralize the attractor loops of civilization, making them less fragile, less hijacked, and more open to emergent wisdom.

Love this ❤️‍🔥

as a coder for 26 years and someone who has been coding heavily with ai since gpt3 I can say this is complete bullshit.

AI is really bad a coding for anything other than throw away tech demos. maybe newer models and architectures will fix this, but for now we still need people who actually know what they are doing.

every time I open X they shove the most stupid US culture war into my face. feels like that has become the main purpose of the app. every post in "for you" is some form of degenerate left vs. right propaganda and the comments are both sides dunking on each other in the meanest possible way. erosion of civilization.

this is not how the world works but an ever growing number of people experience reality exclusively through social media. when you feel upset consuming media, question the source of your anger. any information you absorb on X is filtered for maximum engagement. any emotional response you have is pre-programmed. you're not making your own decisions. you're a bot.

the Internet is designed to trigger you. In this game of humans vs machines, you lose if you get triggered.

It feels this way
