Editor of "The Saylor Series" book by Michael Saylor & Robert Breedlove (and soon to be a course on saylor.org)

An excellent discussion with #[0]​ on #[1]​‘s podcast. After listening, I searched for his pubkey and discovered I already followed David 😂 https://pca.st/episode/7996242d-561d-48c1-b12f-b7b79449b523

The assault on crypt institutions continues. This is why corporate adoption of BTC is essential. Perhaps more important than consumer adoption. See Saylor’s argument that BTC enlists political support anywhere it’s adopted, across many industry verticals. Nobody cares if Joe Plumber can’t buy Bitcoin, but when all the Fortune 500 corps have a treasury reserve asset to protect, the feds must listen. It’s a race against the FUDsters for antifragility, baby!

Here’s a prepaid MasterCard as a potential alternative to Pay With Moon.

https://www.bitrefill.com/buy/prepaid-mastercard-usa/

Pro: you can pick any amount to load

Pro: no account required, just an email address

Con: doesn’t like VPN users

Con: unclear if you can pay with LN (I didn’t get that far into the checkout process)

Con: unclear if you can close a card and get your unused funds back, loadable to another card (but I doubt it)

Still, it’s an easy and close to anonymous method to convert crypt to a debit card—just not as good as Pay With Moon

Favorite feature on the #[0]​ client: the ability to drop in a Twitter handle (yours or anyone’s) and see all the Nostr plebs that account follows. You can even follow them all in one click! #[1]​ needs to support this also https://nostr.build/av/nostr.build_e0b60b337743cd691133d62784b114327941808c814b3a7842a469294bb45679.mov

I’d love to figure out a way to build a basic service for Whisper and use it to transcribe podcast audio

I could have processed the entire #SaylorSeries for under $10!

Trudeau zip lining in with an anti-freedom RPG is my favorite part. Well done! 😂 This definitely earned some sats

I will never understand the psychology of choosing to stand on a street corner asking for money. Literally anything else would be more productive and confer more dignity.

“The Price of Tomorrow” by #[0]​ summarized by ChatGPT (if you haven’t read it you should do so):

1. Technological progress is exponential and is accelerating, which will inevitably lead to deflation and job displacement.

2. The current economic system, which is based on debt and inflation, is unsustainable and will collapse under the pressure of technological progress.

3. To avoid a catastrophic collapse, we need a new economic system that leverages technology to create a more equitable and sustainable future.

4. The key to success in the future is to embrace innovation and collaborate with technology, rather than trying to resist or control it.

5. Artificial intelligence, robotics, and automation will continue to replace human labor, which will require a fundamental shift in the way we think about work and employment.

6. The education system needs to be reformed to prepare future generations for a world where innovation and adaptability are essential.

7. The future will be characterized by abundance, but we need to be willing to adapt and change our thinking to get there.

8. We need to address the issue of income inequality, which will become more pronounced as technology continues to disrupt the job market.

9. Governments and policymakers need to be proactive in anticipating and addressing the challenges that will arise from technological progress.

10. The future is not predetermined, and we have the power to shape it by embracing innovation and working together to create a better world.

Reading this right now! 👍

This Nostr-Lightning integration is pretty awesome. I love the way Damus presents all the wallet apps to choose from. I just sent 100 sats from one wallet to another, instantly and for free. So freaking cool.
