 Fall in the Rockies. The fireplace is heating up the cabin. #proofofwork https://image.nostr.build/a5921abe029f2dd1c9a28b2a375380c856d615d3fb044de3d4db94b7a2ab4d3e.jpg 
 Yes. Wood heat is different somehow. Warmer and a bit more connected.

 I've had two salesman interactions with major purchases for my program recently.

Both have failed to deliver on time. 

It's time to readjust timeline expectations and discount what salesman say about delivery times prior to the PO is issued.  
 50 divided by 2 to the 4th power = 3.125. 
 When teaching financial or business classes to high schoolers, there is a bit of a disconnect because they are all broke.

I help them understand that their value is not determined by money but by their youth and potential. 

Older people would give up plenty to be in their position.

 The New Book:

"Within the commonage, diverse teams share tacit knowledge, the interpretive products of living mentors, and the concentrated wisdom of the writings of human histories, confessors known only by the obscurity of their words and images, with intuition rising to the Camino of the venture wanderer --- the entrepreneur." 
 The concept of Camino encourages individuals to embark on a journey, whether physical or metaphorical, to explore, learn, and discover new aspects of themselves and the world around them. #bitcoin 
 Commonage (ref #Bitcoin) refers to a resource that is used by multiple individuals, families, or communities. It is a common property or resource that is collectively owned, managed, and utilized by a group of people.

Historically, commonage or shared resources were essential for the survival and well-being of rural communities but now the benefit is expanded to include urban areas.

In modern times, the concept of commonage has expanded to include shared spaces, facilities, or resources, such as:

1. Common shared electronic peer to peer networks
2. A shared Blockchain and set of rules
3. A public ledger
4. Shared communication protocols like Nostr.

The key characteristics of commonage include:

1. Shared ownership or management
2. Collective use and benefit
3. Community involvement in decision-making
4. Mutual responsibility for maintenance and upkeep

Commonage promotes social cohesion, cooperation, and a sense of community, while also providing access to shared resources and benefits. 
 Tacit refers to something that is:

1. Implied or suggested, but not explicitly stated
2. Understood or known without being directly expressed
3. Implicitly assumed or understood, without needing to be explicitly stated

In other words, tacit knowledge, understanding, or agreement is something that is:

- Not openly stated or declared
- Not written down or formally documented
- Not explicitly communicated, but still understood or shared

Tacit knowledge is often acquired through experience, intuition, or shared cultural norms, and is frequently difficult to articulate or put into words.

Examples of tacit include:

- Unspoken rules or norms within a group or community
- Implicit assumptions or biases
- Unwritten traditions or customs
- Intuitive understanding or instincts

The term "tacit" comes from the Latin word "tacitus," meaning "silent" or "unspoken."

 I'm wanting to start tipping in sats rather than fiat.

I'm thinking the least frictional way wou... 
 I started this a few months ago.  if my server has a Venmo I can send Sats as a tip right through the app.

I also use LightSats... to send Sats as tips. I set the response time to claim the sats(tip) for 7 days. If they don't show interest in claiming and taking position then the Sats return to my wallet.

 Bitcoin changes you for the better. 

I've seen it change those around me for the better. 

We all got in at some point and looking back it was almost always for the wrong reasons. 

We learned, we grew, it opened our eyes to the world around us.

When people, corporations and even governments start to hold Bitcoin, regardless of their reasons to start, it is my hope that it will change them for the better.

 
 Two Sinister and Evil Partnerships

The Bankers and Governments have teamed up to create a generational wealth confiscation scheme.

 As a coach you realize that moving with grace is the best indicator of top your athletes.

Bitcoin feels like being the dealer at a gigantic worldwide Blackjack Table. 

Everyone thinks they can play the game but forgets that the advantage of house in Blackjack is the dealer always hits last.

Those still in the fiat game, don't understand that Bitcoin's advantage is it can't be printed. It's the whole game. 

You can't beat us... you have to join us.

 I don't watch speeches made by politicians. 

I've had more of my friends reach out to me asking if I saw the two politicians speak about Bitcoin.

I say no... what did they say?

The Government is going to buy Bitcoin.

Everyone sees it eventually.

 Fasting 12 hrs per day minimum 
 Get with the times.  
 I've been adding a 30 hour fast once a week and a 72 hour fast once a month.  
 There are some that want to take it all away.

Resist the urge to look away. 
 I'm amazed by some people's ability to be confused about what's happening and to be oddly confident at the same time.

 The percentage of transactions in bitcoin that are on-chain is trending to zero. 
 Dang 🫵 
 The Venmo App has custodial Bitcoin Wallet built in. 

An easy way to onboard I've found. 



 
 Here’s what I didn’t know until my 40s about how a carnivore diet can help - I’m sharing it... 
 And you get to eat a bunch of steaks.  
 Maybe we should just tell precoiners who ask how you get bitcoin, that you need to go to robosats...

 They are really fighting it.  
 Saw a post about Sprouts spraying a chemical on their vegetables to make them last longer.  The X post included a photo of the container up on the top of the veggie display cooler with the hose plugged into the sprayer. 

My wife went to our local Sprouts and took this photo of the same bottle of chemicals. 

There shouldn't be a warning label for things they spray on food. 

Being #carnivore I thought eating vegetables was bad enough, but this just adds to the fiat food illusion.

 Thinking about Amoto for the Dollar equivalent in #Bitcoin.

I love Sats and I'm used to working with 1,000,000 Sats at a time. 

But it's kinda like using a wad of one dollar bills in your pocket to look like you have a lot of money. 

We'd laugh at people if they'd say something like, I just deposited 250,000 Cents into the bank instead of $2,500 dollars. My noncoiner friends I'm sure do that to me when I say I just bought another Million Sats. 😁

We use Sats from Satoshi, why not use a derivative of Nakamoto as the Dollar equivalent? 

I like The Amoto but I'm sure others would like Naks.

The Dollar
The Peso
The Pound
The Euro
The Franc
The Amoto or The Nak

105,435 Cents
1054 Dollars and 35 Cents

105,435 Sats
1054 Amotos and 35 Sats

105,435 Sats
1054 Naks and 35 Sats

I always see people suggesting Bits but I think using Nakamoto as the base might be better. 

Bits is a computer term that doesn't quite fit. 


 
 For me and you both.
