It needs to be selective in what people can choose.

College is for 110iq+

If you’re under that go do a trade.

College should also be mainly for STEM

algorithms are bad, aren't they? the good thing about nostr is that there are no algorithms, right?

In my latest very dumb experiment, i’ve gotten a Xitter™️ account again. Firstly, gfy i’ll probably delete it soon. I have my reasons, gfy again.

Here are my initial thoughts:

1) the onboarding experience is terrible. You must curate your feed heavily, same as nostr just centralized and it shoves elon’s account in your face immediately lol

2) the algo is appalling. It makes you choose at least three interests while setting up an account. I think mine were finance, food, and nature… and then it shoved tiddies and public fights/people dying on camera in my face. I had to seek out bitcoiners to get any semblance of reason on my feed

3) it immediately locked my account twice and made me prove i was a human by entering a second email code (already did that initially) and solving a weird puzzle

4) i had to say “not interested in this” repeatedly on tiddies (despite not not being interested in tiddied. I’m civilized ffs) and war and street violence and politics, and all of those still pop up anyway

5) didn’t let me “be seen” or have dm’s until i interacted with the piece of shit timeline enough for its arbitrary and opaque liking

6) Xitter™️ still can’t distinguish what a degen vs a bitcoiner feed should look like, causing me to be exposed to dumbass shit like “alt season incoming, load your bags!!” in response to shit like dan held

7) no one engages when you don’t have a blue check and lots of followers. Again, no better than nostr in this regard - in fact it seems even worse

After these Seven™️ highly insightful insights that nobody could’ve known without me doing this, i have come to the conclusion that Nostr is better and look forward to it growing since we all know open protocols and interoperability WIN

The only way to make it sufferable is to have a group of friends already, or else you’ll probably become politically radicalized, addicted to tiddies, degenerate shitcoiner. This comes as no surprise to me, as the only reason i ever really used it back before it became Xitter™️ was to stack sats and shitpost with my friends on the Stackchain™️ (who so far don’t even know i’ve done this, because this is an experiment you fucks so don’t add me to tard chat or anything)

I’ll keep it open until i can no longer bear the Xittiness of it all, could be today or in a week or a month, i have no idea tbh

The only benefit seems to be that if used carefully you can see what’s going on out in “normie” land better than here… for now. I also can’t help but notice how many nostriches are still on there, but who am i to judge (nobody)

That’s all for now. Thanks for reading, dan

I’m voting for Donald Trump.

When Ross is released from prison and stands on stage at the bitcoin conference in Las Vegas, I want to say I played a small part in creating that moment.

If you don’t want to be a part of that fine, but don’t cheer with us as we celebrate.

You did nothing to facilitate his freedom.

I agree, but would add that this metric is skewed by UTXO consolidations, regular payments, LN peg ins, etc.

Real Estate is a $300T market that is propped up by its premium as a monetary asset. As it becomes clear that bitcoin is a superior store of value asset developers, banks and consumers alike will need to incorporate bitcoin in their credit structures.

is the homeless guy going to take all the cash he made begging today, get into his bmw l, and drive home cackling? I don't give a fuck. it felt good to give and I like to live from a point of abundance .

yes scamming is not ok and yes it sucks that it gets promoted from time to time. at the same time, I don't want to discourage people from zapping

I don’t catalog them lol. But I’ve seen plenty of iffy/scammy npubs get zapped. I also see you reposted that one, so I assume that’s why you’re downplaying the significance of it because you’re now embarrassed that you didn’t do your due diligence. It’s not ok to scam people, and it’s not ok to promote scammy behaviors, and downplaying the fact that others do it because you think it’s an insignificant amount is bullshit.

With this npub at least. How many others? 😂

Before I started my company the people closest to me told me it was never going to work and I should go to law school.

I started it anyway. It was successful.

When I first bought bitcoin everyone laughed at me.

I bought more. No one laughs anymore.

When I got married my father in law told me I was being too aggressive saving money and I needed to lighten up and enjoy life or the marriage wasn’t going to work.

He got divorced 2 years later, I am still happily married.

After the birth of my second child, my wife had a serious complication and the doctor told us we’d never have more kids.

We had two more. The same doctor delivered them.

The things other people say/believe are almost always about themselves and their own hang ups and insecurities. You can safely ignore them.

Poor man's poll: Is it

A) e-cash

B) ecash

C) eCash

D) none of the above

People are so gullible 😂😂
