Affectionately patronizing/shit-talking 😂🫂 Likes are a garbage relic of legacy social media. They’ve polluted for an entire generation what validation and value mean. The addiction and effects are real and studied and it’s not like this is something I’ve made up on a whim. Likes are used to inform algorithms that then feed you content and advertisements. They are used to keep you coming back for more cheap worthless validation. One of the best features nostr devs can give users is the ability to completely hide likes from our UI/UX.

Only 5% of my earnings for a good service like #Geyserfund is quite a bargain. When I started using Nostr, I wished we had a service like Patreon/SubscribeStar, but with #bitcoin instead of fiat currencies.

#asknostr After some quiet reflection, I’ve been pondering why some Bitcoiners view it as a positive thing that governments or entities like BlackRock are buying #Bitcoin on a massive scale. Isn’t that against the initial idea of #SatoshiNakamoto? Bitcoin was designed as a tool for individual #freedom, not for governments or institutions that monopolize violence. What happens when governments or major asset managers hold a significant percentage of Bitcoin? Will they create "paper Bitcoin" markets like they did with gold to manipulate its value? As a free thinker and defender of liberty, I firmly believe these actors should keep their hands off freedom tools like Bitcoin. It feels like they’ve realized #theyCannotStopBitcoin, so they’re now using YOUR money to hoard it—potentially stripping it of its liberating power. #P2PBitcoin is true freedom. Once governments insert themselves, it becomes nothing more than "permissioned freedom." #NeverTrustTheGovernment to safeguard your #sovereignty. What are your thoughts?

Low Time Preference works!! We chose to have bitcoinkampala.org set up around the biggest university in Uganda, why? 1. Students are teachable and not yet corrupted/held captive by the fiat system 2. Students don’t have money to invest(don’t have to worry about losing money)but they have time to put in more learning hours and gather experience. 3. Students from around the country converge at the university — these can take back #Bitcoin home 🏡 Well it’s been two years now and the messages are coming in. This 👇🏽 one was in cohort 1 of Trezor Academy cc: nostr:npub1llkvd2zh596r437k5guqqpvktn0jtz4tasn3zfqnjuktue33wagqm2ftee

A lot of people look down on blue collar work, which I think is misguided. Especially for skilled blue collar work (and most type of work does benefit from skill/experience). Basically, there’s a popular notion that it’s objectively better to be a CEO than a plumber, or an engineer than a barber, and that’s pretty off base. So it’s not that they criticize blue collar work in any overt way; it’s that they assume that that people in “lower” jobs would all want to be in “higher” roles if they had the choice. A technician would want to be an engineer. A janitor would want to be a CEO. There are a lot of studies on job happiness and one of the most consistent correlations is that people are happier when they get more immediate feedback. Like if you cut people’s hair or fix mechanical issues or wire up electronic boxes, you often resolve things in minutes, hours, days, or weeks depending the specific task, and with progress along the way, so you get that quick feedback loop where you see the positive results of your work quickly and tangibly. Nothing lingers, unclear and vague. And for those jobs, often when you’re outside of work hours, you’re truly out. You don’t have to think about it. You can fully devote your focus elsewhere. There’s not some major thing hanging over your head, other than sometimes financial stress or indirect things. Now, obviously jobs with more complexity and compensation and scale give people other benefits. More material comfort and safety, more power to impact the world at scale, more public prestige, etc. and for some people that’s important for happiness, and for others it is not. And the cost is that it’s generally highly competitive, rarely if ever turns off, and usually comes with much slower and more vague feedback loops in terms of seeing or feeling whether your work is making things better or not. There was a time in my life where wiring up electronic boxes was really satisfying. Each project had a practical purpose but then also was kind of an artform since I wanted it to look neat for aesthetic and maintainability purposes. I would work on these things like a bonsai enthusiast would sculpt bonsai. And then eventually I would design larger systems and have technicians wire them instead, but for some of the foundational starting points I’d still set up the initial core pieces to get it started right. I wasn’t thrilled when I realistically had to give that up when I moved into management for a while. I have a housekeeper clean my house every couple weeks. She’s a true pro; she used to clean high-end hotels for years and now works for herself cleaning houses. When we travel, she can let herself in and clean our place, since we trust her. She doesn’t speak much English, but her daughter does, and that daughter recently graduated college. Notably, she consistently sings while she cleans. She could listen to music or podcasts but doesn’t. She just sings every time she cleans. I can tell she’s generally in a state of flow while cleaning. She’s good at what she does, and it’s kind of a meditative experience involving repetition but also experience to do it properly and efficiently and then a satisfying conclusion of leaving things better than how they were found. Turning chaos to order. Last year she was hit by a truck while driving, and had to be out of work for a few months to recover. When she came back, we just back-paid her the normal rate for those few months as though she cleaned on schedule, so she wouldn’t have any income gap from us. Full pay despite a work gap. She was shocked when we did that. We weren’t sure her financial situation (I assume it’s pretty good actually based on her rate), but basically we just treated the situation as though she were salaried with benefits even though she works on a per-job basis. Because skilled, trustworthy, and happy people are hard to come by and worth helping and maintaining connections with. If I were to guess, I honestly think she is a happier person than I am on a day to day basis. It’s not that I’m unhappy; it’s that I think whatever percentage I might be on the subjective mood scale, she is visibly higher. I experience a state of flow in my work, and my type of work gives me a more frequent state of flow than other work I could do, but I think her work gives her an even higher ratio of flow. Anyway, my point is that optionality is important. While it’s true that some jobs suck and some jobs are awesome, and financial security matters a lot, for the most part it’s more about how suited you are for a particular type of work at a particular phase in your life. And you’re not defined by your work; it’s just one facet of who you are among several facets. Find what gives you a good state of flow, pays your bills, lets you save a surplus, and lets you express yourself in one way or another.
