In my upcoming book, "21 Questions: Nostr Edition," answers to the top 21 questions about Nostr will be given by some of the best minds involved in this space.
I already have several of them lined up and answering the questions, but who would ๐บ๐ฐ๐ถ like to see as a featured contributor in the book? #AskNostr
Tag them below.๐
That's a really great metaphor! Stay focused and set your priorities! ๐๐ซโจ๐ค

My dad talked about this a lot when I was growing up, except he told it as rocks, pebbles, sand, and he added water. And I've taught the same principle to my kids.
Focus on the rocks and pebbles in your life first, and not as much on the sand and and water.
If this is your first time to wait for confirmation, just give it time, a few cycles, and you will be at peace, too. ๐
This is my third time to wait for confirmation.
I know how this ends.
I am at peace. ๐
Meanwhile, on the centralized bird app:
nostr:npub1hu3hdctm5nkzd8gslnyedfr5ddz3z547jqcl5j88g4fame2jd08qh6h8nh loves looking at the moon. Carla wanted to see the moon tonight but is a bit under the weather and the moon is not visible from the deck.
So I ran down to the end of the street where it meets the main road and posted up with my tripod minutes before clouds completely obscured the moon.
Walker get moon picture. Carla see moon picture. Carla happy. Walker happy because Carla happy. Life good.
Why caveman talk at end? Me no know. Feel right.
Anyway, goodnight. 
Move over, George Bailey.

I'm putting together the very first book about Nostr, "21 Questions: Nostr Edition", which is a follow-up to the book I compiled earlier this year, "21 Questions: Bitcoin Edition" (https://a.co/d/5nv1GoK).
Like the Bitcoin Edition, each chapter in the Nostr Edition will be 1 question out of the 21 top questions that new Nostr users tend to ask. They'll each be answered by many of the greatest minds involved with developing Nostr and spreading the purple pill. ๐ฃ
And that could also include ๐บ๐ฐ๐ถ.
The second question in the book will be: "๐ช๐ต๐ผ ๐ฐ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฎ๐๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐ก๐ผ๐๐๐ฟ?" How would ๐บ๐ฐ๐ถ answer that question?
Do you think that simply stating that it was nostr:npub180cvv07tjdrrgpa0j7j7tmnyl2yr6yr7l8j4s3evf6u64th6gkwsyjh6w6 would be satisfactory for a new Nostr user? I'll zap extra sats if you also tell the story around Nostr's creation, and get creative with it. ๐
Share your answer in the comments, and if I think it's good enough, I'll include it in the book, and attribute it to you, forever immortalizing you in the first-ever Nostr book.
I camped and backpacked for 8 miles over the weekend, with my 4 oldest boys, in Cloudland Canyon State Park in northern Georgia, which is about an hour south of Chattanooga TN. I started down at the bottom of that gulch, around the bend to the left, and went all the way to the top of some cliffs where I got this amazing view! ๐คฉ
8 miles isn't a lot for me, but that uphill climb out of that gulch was brutal! ๐ I'm still feeling sore from it now!
I look forward to going there again! ๐
I'm writing this reply while hodling my 7-month-old 6th child, and rocking him to sleep, and I absolutely could not agree more! ๐ค
This is why I'm putting together a book that covers the top 21 questions about Nostr, answered by some of the most knowledgeable people involved in it.
A lot of new users will be coming here soon, and it will be very useful have a single book to point to, which answers all their questions, and then some more, without ever getting too technical.
This is correct. But having been around for a few cycles, here's what I've learned:
The halving isn't just a meme, and the past runs weren't random.
Like with nature, Bitcoin's price follows 4 seasons: spring's ups and downs but mostly ups, summer's crazy face-melting ups, autumn's downs and ups but mostly downs, and winter's depressing lows.
Each "season" in Bitcoin lasts about 1 year, give or take a few months.
And we exited winter and entered spring about 11 months ago.
So keep stacking, and buckle up.
The next Newcastle #Bitcoin meetup will be at 6.30pm on Tuesday 20th August at The Ware Rooms Bar.
This time, it's a nostr:nprofile1qqs09jtvjlmyrxjn37zv70a89csegcz7rpyqjmnw29cveedhv7vagqqpzamhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumn0wd68ytnzv9hxgtc64y2dk special! ๐
Get hands-on with a SeedSigner and check out the components to build your own low-cost, air-gapped Bitcoin signing device!
It would be cool to have this meetup listed as an event on nostr:npub15xd2mmjnh3caykh77djsv73e0zkrp42jp5mwerx8f4m6su40wdvss7t3l3. ๐
We just need an ambassador for Newcastle upon Tyne, first...๐
Once we no longer need trust for communicating value (Bitcoin) or information (Nostr), we can begin to truly build trust in each other.

Check out your local meet up.
If you are in #Arkansas, specifically the #Northwest region, we will be meeting this Thursday at @FossilCoveBrew at 6:30 pm and talking #bitcoin
Look forward to meeting you!
This is exactly the kind of thing nostr:npub15xd2mmjnh3caykh77djsv73e0zkrp42jp5mwerx8f4m6su40wdvss7t3l3 is built for.
And there isn't an ambassador for Fayetteville, Bentonville, or any other city in northwest Arkansas...yet. ๐

3.
But maybe 4 and 5, too.
And as for 2, my wife has no complaints about me being physically fit.
This is a great view of Chattanooga!
