The whole influencer army they seemed eager to muster always seemed like a high time preference approach to marketing. And hearing Klipstein talk about limiting their trading/hedging to low-leverage instruments was another red flag.
In truth, I took a step back from SeedSigner development 3 or more years ago. 🤪 I wrote the initial versions of the software but I'm just an amateur coder and had the project been limited to my coding ability it wouldn't be what it is today. I focus more on helping connect contributors, helping others understand the project's raison d'etre, supporting users, designing enclosures, and other things that come up.
I think I just realized that drinking was a crutch, and that the reasons that I was drinking for when I was younger, didn’t really apply any more. It was mostly out of habit.
I have not quit entirely but have scaled way back over the last couple months. Its definitely a net positive but I don't think as earth shattering as some might suggest. It definitely makes sense for me not to be an "every day" drinker. Have you noticed any positive changes?
Fun project to build, all the necessary info is at seedsigner.com. 🧡
no, no. I mean the annunciation on the instrument. I’ve never played the trumpet, but it seems to be somewhat challenging to get clean starts and breaks. The annunciation seems really good.
I hear this pretty frequently from our users. 🧡 nostr:note185rc5gr7k22mpr5tga36rsuexwk6vnemtnd4vyah07qcdxvcd4aqeauzur
That would unfortunately technically make me a money transmitter. This is the reason why we set up the current donation process the way that it is. I appreciate your offer.
This account isn't set up for zaps, I want LN donations to go to our technical contributors -- there's a form for that on the linked page. 🧡
It's not representative of everyone who has contributed to the project, those five are the most consistent, responsive and active contributors. 🙂
Software development grants can be a great source of financial support for full-time, technical, open source contributors, especially those working on projects that are close to the bitcoin core protocol.
Our project only has one contributor who is both technical and available for full-time work. To support our other most active contributors, please visit the link below and purchase a tshirt/hoodie, some Entropia tablets, or donate directly to our most active contributors via LN:
All analogies eventually break down but I think a pen makes a good analog for a signer. It documents/conveys info and can generate signatures, but when passed from user to user it doesn't retain info about what the last user did.
I'm still detoxing, LoL.
I'm curious to see if it feels like Nostr hits differently.
Un-installed Twitter from my phone today; was consuming too much time / energy.
