I miss when this was gibberish
It’s surprising what any of us believe. From my view, the idea of religion or any formal belief system has been belittled and destroyed without much to replace it. Then we attach ourselves to some ideology we didn’t know we were being preached.
Sometimes I feel more aware that what I believe isn’t well understood or I don’t know how to communicate it.
I’m having a tough time building a belief system. It takes care and consistency that I’m only still learning to give.
Oh more to what you were saying. I am somewhat tuned into Rogan or the content people might associate with the Rogan sphere. Some of what I hear makes sense, or offers an alternative explanation for things that is intriguing because it goes against popular beliefs. Many of those popular beliefs are held by systems I’ve learned not to hold confidence in.
But then I think well that’s interesting but I’m not sure I can fully attach myself to that belief for whatever reason (lack of my own research, conflicting information, conflicting beliefs, etc.) Then that happens several times a day. Then I think oh this is too much information and I am increasingly detached from feeling like I understand much of anything.
These are my tangentially related thoughts from the toilet tonight as I am trying to figure life out. I hope I laugh at them later but for now I am proud to have spoken my mind.
Called in sick to work this morning and made the 7 hour haul to Mobile, Alabama for nostr:npub1g6csces2yp8afda2uxnhue4rjvgpa29zqurkhqyufklehusxdcrswe6zky. Met weirdos. Talked more freely than I’ve managed to in a while. Connected.
I’m thankful to have attended and glad I told myself to go do the crazy thing.
Why and how did you get your sh*t together?
Pro tip: you can open a new tab group and have another 500 ;)
Research goes through centralized publishing houses that are slow and biased. Once it is published is expensive to access, limiting science to elites. I have more written about this issue and what I see as the solution that I will share in the future.
I’d love to learn more about your startup and work! I’ve done some work in the biomedical field but I don’t know anything about cell reprogramming. Based off the quick search I did it seems cool!
This seems like a good opportunity to do an #introductions since I never did a proper nostr introduction so here I am. I’m Carson and I joined nostr about 2 years ago when I saw Jack Dorsey tweet his npub. As I learned about nostr, I got excited because it actually fixes the issue of censorship, and serves as a protocol engineered for free speech. I'd been mostly off social media for a few years (more because It's easy to waste time on and I’m worried about how it’ll affect my brain down the line). Nostr introduced me to bitcoin, and though I haven’t read as deep as I’d like into it yet, it seems to be pretty cool.
I am in my senior year of college. I will be graduating with a BS in Materials Science and Engineering in a few short months. I chose this path because of the interest in nanomaterials (carbon nanotubes, more specifically) I developed in high school. While in school, I got a job working in a nanomaterials research lab, where I became associate manager (until I quit today!).
Through working in research for nearly four years and reading research for five years, I have come to think research and research publishing could benefit from change. It is in my goals this year to learn to code and build what I see as the solution to the issues with research, and share that here with y’all.
One of my main goals at the moment is to find a job for when I graduate. I’m really interested in moving to the Austin or Houston areas. However, I recognize that I am at the mercy of life and the opportunities I encounter. I am entrepreneurial, fast learning, and motivated to work hard, given the right environment.
I love talking to and learning from people, biking, reading, wristwatches, cars and motorcycles (and fixing them). There’s lots more to me that I’ll try to share over time.
I haven't engaged a ton with the community on here, but I've followed some of y’all for a long time, and am happy to be a witness to the awesomeness here. Here’s to getting to know you all better and getting more involved this year! nostr:note19nfem7rpkcgc0427t87lg3qej7nffpu96tnhaqm9nkygmq6qyxfqpde9ez
Supposing its true - then by way of btc + nostr, what incentives can we build for that 97% funding to be funding for #CitizenScience? (world) citizens funding other citizens for their innovation. Incentives to make your knowledge freely accessible and *understandable* by your funders. nostr:nevent1qqsy20ff8v5nysl6mq3nfd8u4ry53c666r0t23t7pwuq245k0y929rcpzamhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumn0wd68ytnzv9hxgtczypjed5qpmj0wpt5mj2g8mjgq233qnp9zyyuf4z0gan2xvzzyu8j76qcyqqqqqqgn860z5
Working on this now. Very excited to share when it’s done
Making a trip to Houston and Austin soon. Hoping to interview and connect with people. Particularly interested in learning from people involved in nanotechnology, but open to anyone who can teach me anything valuable. Any suggestions?
What do you do to understand others?
What do you do to make yourself understood? Heard?

What vocabulary changes have been useful to you?
