True.. But is that better? Apparently it's acceptable by Western ethics now?

"Away with Maduro, all power to Delcy" ...?

We all need to balance between being safe helped coached protected, and being exposed to new experiences, that might end in joy or subtle suffering, but make us learn and develop.

It's hard to balance these two forces for myself, let alone for my wife and child.

I believe that with the best husband-intentions we can be limiting the equal development of our families. Obviously, not being there for them is, not caring, is not good either.

That's cool. Now let's find a floppy disk drive. Or.. Would there be a market for 1.44mb usb sticks?

Just sharing a simple observation from my own life.

Maybe someone out there can relate.

When I lived on the fiat standard, my sleep followed someone else’s rhythm.

8-6. Dinner.

Workout/Self development.

Say GN to the baby.

Sleep early.

Recover well so I could perform again the next day.

Rinse and repeat.

Time and energy were scheduled around external demands.

Since living on the Bitcoin standard now for about three years…something quietly changed.

My body slowly rooted back into nature.

I healed.

My sleep is no longer forced.

It’s responsive.

Most days I sleep 4–6 hours.

Often split into two phases.

I go to bed when the sun goes down. Very early.

Then I wake up around midnight fully awake, clear, energized.

Sometimes I sleep again for a few hours till sun rises…

when my body asks for it.

Sometimes I don’t sleep at all.

Like tonight.

And yet I’m wide awake.

Focused. Full of energy.

It feels as if energy comes from somewhere else now…

not from ā€œrecovery for productivity,ā€ but from alignment.

I feel happier & healthier.

More myself.

Not because I sleep less but because I sleep on my own terms.

Just an observation.

I hope you get a really good rest tonight…the kind your body truly wants& needs.

When I was trapped in fiat, I saw my daughter on average 7min/day.

Something inside me always knew that something was wrong.

Other humans called me successful because I successfully chased titles, fiat, and power.

But I never felt successful.

Those fiat trophies never meant anything to me.

I just executed because that’s what I was told to do.

Until I became a dad.

That was the moment my eyes opened.

Not Covid.

Not even Bitcoin.

Becoming a father made me realize I wasn’t present for my daughter…

just like my father wasn’t there for me.

That realization hit hard.

That was the moment I knew I was off track.

I’m grateful I found a way out…

together with a bunch of funny, smart, badass motherfucker retards like you.

Stay healthy & present.

My first son is still a baby. I recognize the interupted sleep cause he wakes up at any time.

Still, this hopeful energy that you describe.. I do not feel that yet. Makes me wonder if my fiat life is causing this

We escaped the cold Netherlands for a warm vacation. Bought my first bitrefill ESim with btc and using it now to share my pic

I wanted to buy your book with LN btc, but it is not obvious how to pay with btc. Seems that we website pushes for mainstream payments. Do I have to search better?

GM. The Noderunners Conference was buzzing. I even had the luck to win the event's lottery and win a beautiful plaque made by nostr:nprofile1qqst75xum9893nh5w7eqmkd9jeklpt7tckhkv335dvh84zptwez9jqspzemhxue69uhkzarvv9ejumn0wd68ytnvv9hxgqg4waehxw309ajkgetw9ehx7um5wghxcctwvsdhl256. Thanks guys

GM nostr. Today I am on my way to my first ever bitcoin event: the Noderunners Conference Amsterdam. https://noderunners.network/en/conference

The Dutch weather gave me already a autumn welcome. But still: excited.

GM nostr. Do you guys recognize how hard it is to finish a dev project? I started some time ago with a nice nostr game, but never found the time to publish it.

GM... My #bitaxe broke some time ago. Shows 0V voltage on the ASIC. Strangely enough it seems to come back to life with an older firmware version. Are there any hw wizards out there to help?

GM nostr!

While slowly waking up, on my nostr feed the political discussions are full awake. At this moment I am more in the mood of "light nostr fun" until I have my coffee

Managing your energy&sleep and that of the mother has been my biggest challenge. I almost survived the first year, it wasn't always easy..

Was looking into that and saw your profile. But I'm fine posting in English. Seems the language closes to the devs, maxis, plebs out here

GM!

First order of today, try to pickup my wife's new driver license from the municipality.

For some good old centralized bureaucracy

I find the CP argument unconvincing. It seems a scare tactic. Because most agree that when someone wants to spend the sats to get 100k data in a block they already can. Filters probably work a fair bit, but for the CP argument this would be irrelevant.

Hi there, quite new to nostr, but I like the openness of the protocol. My background is python developer with a small SaaS company. I have many ideas of games or other semi interactive apps on nostr.

I am mostly reading the tech messages, but would be cool to spend more time writing as well

nostr:nprofile1qqs9pk20ctv9srrg9vr354p03v0rrgsqkpggh2u45va77zz4mu5p6ccpzemhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejz7qgkwaehxw309a5xjum59ehx7um5wghxcctwvshszrnhwden5te0dehhxtnvdakz7qrxnfk I am writing some python stuff using the python-nostr package. Thanks for that as a basis. I see the dev has not been active for 2 years. There are some improements ready to be merged but the prs are still open. Do you know what happened? Any tip which branches I could build on?
