You are most welcome! Just in case you have not read my post!  This is very helpful.

Self-CPR during a heart attack. Please take two minutes of your time and read this:*

1. Let's say it's 7:25 PM, and you're heading home (alone, of course) after an especially tough day at work.

2. You're really tired, agitated, and frustrated.

3. Suddenly, you start experiencing severe chest pain. The pain continues down your arm and up to your jaw. You're about 5 km away from the nearest hospital.

4. Unfortunately, you don't know if you'll be able to make it there.

5. You're trained in performing CPR, but the person who taught you didn't explain how to do it on yourself.

6. How to survive a heart attack when you're alone? Since many people are alone when they suffer a heart attack and the heart's rhythm becomes incorrect, leading to weakness, there are only 10 seconds before losing consciousness.

7. However, these victims can help themselves by coughing forcefully and repeatedly. A deep breath should be taken before each cough, and the cough must be deep and prolonged, as if trying to produce phlegm from deep within the chest. Breathe and cough (repeat this every two seconds without stopping) until help arrives or until you feel the heart beating normally again.

8. Deep breaths bring oxygen into the lungs, and coughing movements press on the heart and maintain blood circulation. The action of pressing on the heart helps it return to its regular rhythm. This way, heart attack victims can reach the hospital.

9. Tell as many people as possible. You can save lives!

10. A cardiologist says that if everyone who receives this message sends it to 10 people, we can save a life at least once.

11. Instead of sending jokes, please... contribute by passing on this message, which can save a person's life.

12. If this message reaches you... more than once... please don't be upset... instead, be glad that you have many friends who care about you.

Hold your finger on the message and pass it on...

A minute from your time won't hurt.

Adam Back: There’s actually enough unused hydro power that’s connected to the grid and ready to use that it could power the entire #Bitcoin network just out of the unused power. Of course there are lots more hydro resources globally both constructed and untapped, so even on the hydro side there’s a lot of upside. And of course, I think #Bitcoin is a great vehicle for providing the business fundamentals to fund building more power infrastructure, to drive economic growth for the future.

It’s not about athleticism. It’s about balance. If you haven’t ridden a board your whole life (skateboarding, surfing…), it’s not going to come naturally but everyone can pick it up. I’ve taught several friends in their thirties how to do it.

Skiing, you have the benefit of facing downhill with full peripheral vision. When snowboarding, you can’t see what’s behind (next to) you as easily.

Re: your problem - either don’t lean back as hard or go faster. Speed is your friend on a snowboard, it’s not as easy to control at slow speeds as skis.

Another hack when going slowly is to try to slide the tail of your board around rather than try to take the whole turn on your edge, which is only possible at higher speeds.

Try to do it a few days in a row or in a short period of time. It’ll be easier yo build on your progress.

And at the end of the day if you just can’t get it, go rip on skis. Mountains are too expensive to waste money not having fun.

When you become a master at what you do, whatever your skill is, you have invested the time in becoming knowledgeable in that area.

That knowledge was grown through your curiosity in a particular area.

That curiosity was sparked by a new or novel idea being presented to you.

Be open to new ideas, that is the way to cultivate knowledge in a subject.

Ideas are the seeds that grow into mastery!

Nostr users interact with clients (equivalent to fb and gmail). The difference is that if a client censors or deplatforms the user, their content is still preserved and accessible via other clients.

The problem with exercising the power to moderate misinformation is that there’s no way to preserve truth if the moderator decides it wants to conceal it.

Is nostr needed for that?

…Not saying there isn’t value for them on nostr but if we want to onboard them, we need to clearly articulate the value they will find here.

It needs to be worth their time and easy enough to do.


What’s the incentive for them?


I’m not claiming that nostr will unseat X but I also don’t think it’s unlikely.

X is taking itself down one move at a time. The user experience is shit.

Spending any amount of time on there creates stress and contention.

As for creators, they aren’t earning anything substantial. A popular account on there with ~370k followers earned $70 during the month of September off of 9.6 million impressions. X has taken far more away from creators with the changes in the past year than they’ve paid them.

Meanwhile, creators earn via p2p v4v here.

PV #plebchain

Let’s see if we can use the power of #asknostr to help each other out.

Reply with an answer to the following 3 questions and I’ll do 2 things:

1. I will boost your note.

2. I will help you, if I’m able to.

⚡Let’s get this v4v engine started:

What’s your biggest goal?

When do you want to achieve it by?

What’s the number one thing standing in your way?


Testing some normie content on other platforms and also want to share it here for y’all.

Feedback encouraged.

The goal is to start opening more bitcoin conversations over there, rather than just cheerleading into the abyss.

Here’s the post:

“Volatility is price of admission. The prize inside are superior longterm returns. You have to pay the price to get the returns.”
- Morgan Housel

“This great emphasis on volatility in corporate finance we regard as nonsense.”
- Charlie Munger

“Risk is not defined by volatility, but rather ill-conceived investment.”
- Michael Burry

With inflation as high as it is right now, the unpredictability of what the Fed will do with interest rates each month, and economy in such a precarious position, teo things are certain:

Everything is volatile and the purchasing power of our earnings is being eroded.

The only way to prevent the erosion of purchasing power is to put money into something that appreciates in value to counter the force of devaluation.

Any of those options are volatile and have risk.

So what do we do?

The wrong answer is to do nothing.

The other wrong answer is to spend it all frivolously and aggressively before it devalues.

That doesn’t mean panicking and allocating a large sum into whatever investment that one friend tells us is the next big thing.

But it does mean we at least need to keep an eye on our options and start to seriously educate ourselves.

We shouldn’t be looking for a get rich quick scheme.

We need to keep a low time-preference, because volatility WILL hurt us if we need that money back quickly.

Understand the underlying dynamics and existential risks of each option.

What makes it valuable?

What are the tailwinds?

What are the headwinds?

What would take it down to a point where it would not recover?

What makes it resilient to those forces?

For me, there aren’t too many options I have faith in, unfortunately.

I’ve done the work to educate myself - far more than Malcolm Gladwell’s 10,000 hours.

This work has given me the education needed to not get scared during volatile times and the conviction to know that where I choose to preserve buying power is not only very low risk, but also WHY it is very low risk.

It’s also taught me that there are major make-or-break differences in seemingly similar investment options.

And for me, I’ve come to the conclusion that of the viable options, I currently think one has by far the best risk:reward ratio.

That is Bitcoin. [NOT crypto]

I’ve put in thousands of hours of reading, listening, watching, and meeting people and builders in the Bitcoin ecosystem.

I follow how the network is growing, where it’s expanding, where there are opposing forces, and, most importantly, what it stands for.

This technology and industry are built different.

I’ve learned so much from so many generous people and I believe Bitcoin is changing the world.

Now it’s time to pay it forward and help others to understand this fascinating, unique, and virtually bullet-proof tool for human prosperity.

If you’re interested, I’m here to help.

Lastly, I’ll leave you with this:

I promise you, price appreciation is the least impressive aspect of Bitcoin.

There are no breaks within a life’s work. You either are committed, or, you are not.

Go and be great today!!!🌞🧘🏽♀🍔🍟🥤


Seek embarrassment regularly.


Testing some normie content on other platforms and also want to share it here for y’all.

Feedback encouraged.

The goal is to start opening more bitcoin conversations over there, rather than just cheerleading into the abyss.

Here’s the post:

“Volatility is price of admission. The prize inside are superior longterm returns. You have to pay the price to get the returns.”
- Morgan Housel

“This great emphasis on volatility in corporate finance we regard as nonsense.”
- Charlie Munger

“Risk is not defined by volatility, but rather ill-conceived investment.”
- Michael Burry

With inflation as high as it is right now, the unpredictability of what the Fed will do with interest rates each month, and economy in such a precarious position, teo things are certain:

Everything is volatile and the purchasing power of our earnings is being eroded.

The only way to prevent the erosion of purchasing power is to put money into something that appreciates in value to counter the force of devaluation.

Any of those options are volatile and have risk.

So what do we do?

The wrong answer is to do nothing.

The other wrong answer is to spend it all frivolously and aggressively before it devalues.

That doesn’t mean panicking and allocating a large sum into whatever investment that one friend tells us is the next big thing.

But it does mean we at least need to keep an eye on our options and start to seriously educate ourselves.

We shouldn’t be looking for a get rich quick scheme.

We need to keep a low time-preference, because volatility WILL hurt us if we need that money back quickly.

Understand the underlying dynamics and existential risks of each option.

What makes it valuable?

What are the tailwinds?

What are the headwinds?

What would take it down to a point where it would not recover?

What makes it resilient to those forces?

For me, there aren’t too many options I have faith in, unfortunately.

I’ve done the work to educate myself - far more than Malcolm Gladwell’s 10,000 hours.

This work has given me the education needed to not get scared during volatile times and the conviction to know that where I choose to preserve buying power is not only very low risk, but also WHY it is very low risk.

It’s also taught me that there are major make-or-break differences in seemingly similar investment options.

And for me, I’ve come to the conclusion that of the viable options, I currently think one has by far the best risk:reward ratio.

That is Bitcoin. [NOT crypto]

I’ve put in thousands of hours of reading, listening, watching, and meeting people and builders in the Bitcoin ecosystem.

I follow how the network is growing, where it’s expanding, where there are opposing forces, and, most importantly, what it stands for.

This technology and industry are built different.

I’ve learned so much from so many generous people and I believe Bitcoin is changing the world.

Now it’s time to pay it forward and help others to understand this fascinating, unique, and virtually bullet-proof tool for human prosperity.

If you’re interested, I’m here to help.

Lastly, I’ll leave you with this:

I promise you, price appreciation is the least impressive aspect of Bitcoin.

…but it’s still pretty damn impressive. nostr:note125dfupvvz84qp0279pv7qhp7hrmva9jxa3462xpc9pzvzawdld8seqdxup

You may have heard 'price is the least interesting aspect of bitcoin.'

It truly is.

Bitcoin is nothing less than a masterpiece in balancing incentives and tradeoffs to solve one of the most important challenges we face as a society: the storage, communication, and exchange of value.

Holding bitcoin on an exchange ignores 90% of Bitcoin's innovations and only gives you exposure to its price action.

- Trustless money isn't trustless when you trust an exchange or bank to hold it for you.

- Decentralization doesn't matter if a centralized entity holds your private and public keys.

- Accessing & using your bitcoin isn't permissionless if an exchange controls when you can access or move it.

- Your bitcoin isn't censorship-resistant if a government can tell your exchange when to not let you spend it or who you aren't allowed to send it to.

- Bitcoin on an exchange isn't confiscation-resistant when a government forces the exchange to turn over all assets.

- There's no free market when a central exchange imposes their own fees on moving your bitcoin.

- Your bitcoin isn't borderless if you can't access the exchange from certain jurisdictions.

- Your use of bitcoin isn't pseudonymous if exchange access requires identifying yourself.

- Transactions aren't peer to peer if your bitcoin is held by a corporate 3rd party custodian.

- The 21M bitcoin cap doesn't matter if the exchange rehypothecates your holdings.

- 'Your' bitcoin may not even be real/exist if you hold it on an exchange.

Learn about Bitcoin.

Learn how to hold your own keys and take self-custody.

Learn how to use the Bitcoin network.

Otherwise, you've thrown the baby out with the bathwater and have surrendered all of the innovation that gives bitcoin value for a lazy attempt to capitalize off of its price action, while remaining in the flawed, risky system it was designed to protect you from.

Lastly, I encourage you to keep in mind that power corrupts and that counterparty risk is real. Dig into the details about what happened with Mt. Gox, QuadrigaCX, and FTX.

Then read the Bitcoin Whitepaper.

The reason that the money supply must be capped is that everybody has a price.  Everybody can be bought.

Creating new money allows people to be bought.   Bought by who?   By those who were allowed to create the money, of course!

Debasement will require more printing to keep buying people.

The inflation rate reflects the decreased purchasing power the state had on its people.

Bitcoiners have a money that reflects a lower bound on their price to be bought.  We’re bought by Bitcoin and it requires no further debasement of Bitcoin - the opposite - our loyalty depends on the adherence to the monetary policy that bought us to begin with.

There are still a lot of people out there who have surrendered and categorized monetary debasement as a fact of life.

There are others, who know that monetary debasement is bullshit and the only solution they can come up with is back fiat by gold and start all over again. Savers will get rekt but that’s a necessary sacrifice if we want to restart. …as if restarting with the same system that’s failed is any different than continuing with the one we have.

This line of thinking is only possible when people have given up hope and don’t understand that there’s a solution to all of this.

Most days, I don’t eat until 2-3pm. Only water, electrolytes, and black coffee before that.

Ideally, I’d like to shift that window earlier and stop eating 5-6 hours before bed but that’s going to be a challenge so I’ve been procrastinating.

Agreed. This will be great for the market because there will be less effort put into selling their shitcoins, hence more effort on building marketable, useful, durable solutions.


The signal always breaks through.


GM

A common critique of shitcoiners is that they’re trying to solve scaling and utility problems on their layer 1 technology.

I don’t think that’s quite right.

If you zoom out past the tech, they’ve actually made the mistake of starting on layer 2. The money is layer 1. They’ve skipped past fixing the money to try to fix financial applications.

Assuming 100% of them aren’t scammers and some people are actually trying to fix problems, they simply haven’t gone deep enough to realize there’s a more foundational problem that needs to be fixed first.

Ripple just RIPed the trustiest Trust that was ever trusted to Trust.


Bitcoin was designed to remove trust from the equation.

If you own bitcoin because you believe it’s an innovative form of money that improves upon the fiat trust model…

Why are you still trusting Trusts?


Congrats - many make mistakes and learn costly lessons before taking this initiative.


Yeah, depending on the agreement.

Another reason to self custody…as if there weren’t enough reasons already.


Debating fiat maxis on LinkedIn is both time consuming and frustrating but nevertheless, seems important.

Ripple acquired Fortress Trust which is one of Swans custodial service providers.

Sorry to hear that. Good luck.


If bitcoin curtails frivolous spending, unsustainable & poor quality production, investment-based real estate construction, and supports better infrastructure maintenance & long term planning, it most certainly will impact traffic.


This is why we will win.

OpenSats is proud to announce long term support for bitcoin core developer nostr:npub1s6z7hmmx2vud66f3utxd70qem8cwtggx0jgc7gh8pqwz2k8cltuqrdwk4c.

Sjors has reviewed almost a thousand pull requests since 2017, some of them in-depth reviews across many rebases. He has opened about 160 pull requests over the years in various areas, mostly related to the wallet codebase. His main focus is on thorough code reviews as opposed to writing code himself.

Joining nostr:npub1uaj9phu5lpxpczm3vaayt46m0yv0pduxzy7z6quwd2uggxue7fmqx9665u and Marco Falke, we are now providing long term support to three bitcoin core developers.

📢 NDK 1.0 is out!

Codename: Outbox ✅

When I set out to write NDK my main goal was implementing the gossip protocol, now known as *outbox model*. I wanted nostr applications to have decentralizing tendencies by *default*; transparent to the developer.

After a few failed attempts, it's finally here, which, paired with a bunch of non-backward compatible changes, prompts me to do a major version bump.

# What is outbox model?

In short, the outbox model allows nostr to fragment, instead of everybody coalescing around a few popular relay and using things like Blastr. Nostr simply doesn't work without the outbox model.

# Main changes:

* Outbox model support, obviously.
* `fetchEvent(s)` is now faster, (particularly with queries using exclusively `ids` filters).
* Fixed unstable relay back-off code (credit goes to nostr:npub1az9xj85cmxv8e9j9y80lvqp97crsqdu2fpu3srwthd99qfu9qsgstam8y8 for the valuable testing infrastructure)
* Defaults to blacklisting wss://brb.io #censorship (credit goes to nostr:npub1az9xj85cmxv8e9j9y80lvqp97crsqdu2fpu3srwthd99qfu9qsgstam8y8  for the widely hinted-at dead relay)
* Subscription aggregation now works when multiple filters run at the same time
* Subscriptions that should close when EOSEd are now closed when each individual relay EOSEs instead of waiting for all of them to EOSE.
* A better algorithm on when to signal a subscription's EOSE. The margin that NDK now gives to relays to EOSE is now a function of how many of the connected relays in the relay set have EOSEd (accounting for relays that are still sending events).
* There are *many* more changes that I needed to do to accommodate for this that I don't remember now.

Some of the most glaring breaking changes:

* `ndk.subscribe` now defaults to keeping the subscription alive; the default of closing subscriptions on EOSE was bothering me
* NDKUser changes the `hexpubkey` from a function to a getter, so wherever you were using `user.hexpubkey()` needs to change to `user.hexpubkey`.

# Enabling outbox model

Outbox model comes disabled by default *for now*, as soon as I test it more throughogly it will be the default.

To enable it you need to instantiate NDK with:

```
const ndk = new NDK({
    explicitRelayUrls: [...],
    outboxRelayUrls: ["wss://purplepag.es"],
    enableOutboxModel: true,
})
```

The outbox model will largely be transparent to you and will work on the background once you enable it.


The more you know, the less you can ‘be told.’

Big news! Thanks to a grant from nostr:npub10pensatlcfwktnvjjw2dtem38n6rvw8g6fv73h84cuacxn4c28eqyfn34f , we're adding some more Nostr features to Mutiny Wallet! First up: a live Zaps Feed to see who your friends are zapping.

https://blog.mutinywallet.com/content/images/2023/09/nostr-sync.webp

Having a different contact list for payments app is annoying and lame. With Mutiny Wallet you can now just import your nostr follows as contacts. All you need is an npub. It's easy to use and there's zero lock-in. Protocols not platforms!

https://blog.mutinywallet.com/content/images/2023/09/Screenshot-from-2023-09-06-15-57-18.png

The Zaps Feed, inspired by nostr:npub1l2vyh47mk2p0qlsku7hg0vn29faehy9hy34ygaclpn66ukqp3afqutajft with ZapLife.lol, shows you who your friends are zapping and who is zapping them. It's like Venmo's social payments but with a nostr twist. Learn more about it here: https://blog.mutinywallet.com/nostr-contacts-and-zap-feed

Big thanks to nostr:npub12vkcxr0luzwp8e673v29eqjhrr7p9vqq8asav85swaepclllj09sylpugg for adding a `zaps_feed` to their API. We're now running our own Primal server to keep things decentralized: https://primal-cache.mutinywallet.com/api

These new features complement some of the existing integrations we have like Nostr Wallet Connect. This allows for payment requests to show up right inside your wallet for you to approve.

https://blog.mutinywallet.com/content/images/2023/09/nwczaps.webp

We're far from done! Stay tuned for non-custodial zap receives and new NWC features like budgeting. Try the Zaps Feed on Mutiny Wallet now and share your thoughts!

The web version of the wallet is at https://app.mutinywallet.com - if you already have it installed as a Progressive Web App, just close and refresh! The android version is located here: https://github.com/MutinyWallet/mutiny-web/releases/tag/v0.4.16

Yes, agreed that certain vehicles are a luxury but simply having a car is not.

FWIW, my vehicle (shared between my gf and me) costs less than half of that figure per month.

Most would consider it a luxury vehicle but it’s a 2008, which I bought for $16k, fully paid off, and our sole vehicle for our 2-person household.

I bought this particular vehicle (Lexus GX470) for its reliability, longevity, and off-road capability - and because it was 10-15% cheaper than its equivalent non-luxury model (Toyota 4-Runner) when I was buying.


Is a car considered a luxury?
