AI stays inside the box. Humans step outside when things break. Derek Crager on Human First AI: Use it to think WITH the human, not FOR the human. Otherwise businesses get brittle fast. Clip from our latest episode with Derek Crager on The Space Tomatoes Podcast. #HumanFirstAI #AI

In this episode of The Space Tomatoes Podcast, Havok and LX sit down with Derek Crager, founder and CEO of Practical AI, creator of Pocket Mentor, and author of Human First AI, for a refreshingly pragmatic conversation about AI that actually serves humans instead of trying to replace them. Derek makes a compelling case that the current AI will take all the jobs narrative is both overhyped and dangerously shortsighted. He argues that the real opportunity lies in using AI to think with humans, not for them, empowering people to make better decisions outside the box while keeping businesses resilient. We dive into the psychology of AI adoption, why 95 percent of corporate AI projects are failing, the critical role of entry level jobs in the economy, and how Dereks own neurodivergence (autism, ADHD, and dyslexia) shaped his approach to building tools that actually work. We also get the origin story of Pocket Mentor, the world's first AI based vocational mentor designed specifically for trades and skilled workers, and hear how Derek built Amazons highest rated internal training program from scratch during the pandemic. If you're tired of the AI hype cycle and want practical, human centered thinking on how to actually use these tools without destroying your own customer base, this one is for you. SpaceTomatoes:

“AnComs want to kill Ancaps. Ancaps want to helicopter AnComs. Meanwhile the state is oppressing all of us the same way.” Maybe the real enemy isn’t each other. @Ancap Air breaks down why infighting misses the point of anarchy entirely.

This week on Space Tomatoes, Havok and LX sit down with Derek Wills (AncapAir), author of *The Liberty Solution*. Derek walks us through his journey from hardcore Republican → constitutional conservative → libertarian → full ancap, and how reading Murray Rothbard completely rewrote the book he was working on. We dive deep into why the state is inherently incompatible with liberty, the myth of "necessary evil," reputation as the ultimate enforcement mechanism in a stateless society, and why IP is not only invalid but actively stifles innovation. We also tackle the classic objections: roads, fire departments, police, dispute resolution, immigration, welfare, and what a voluntary society actually looks like in practice. Derek makes a strong case that ostracism and reputation are far more powerful (and ethical) than state violence. **Topics covered:** - The brutal reality of writing a book (and rewriting 90% of it) - Why "small government" is a myth - Reputation, ostracism, and private arbitration as real enforcement - IP, chocolate chip cookies, and why you can't own an idea - Roads, hospitals, and the free-market solutions nobody talks about. - Why the Libertarian Party keeps embarrassing itself - The power of voluntary association vs. coercive hierarchy Follow AncapAir on Nostr: @Ancap Air #GrowNostr https://fountain.fm/episode/DA9VsFKnmh4KpCFP5LYr

If you ever thought about raising Guinea foul, let this be torture condom... sound up, because reasons...

I feel like in some weird way that I am lucky to be less educated on Bitcoin, I mean, I understand it and I get sovereignty etc... What I am less educated on is things like who is Michael Saylor, I have no clue honestly, nor do I care or care what he does, says, or what he is up to. I don't know why BIP-110 is a thing, nor do I get the fighting over it. I simply know there is sound money, that I can use, without a middleman or goon trying to extract some of it because they "gave me permission" to use it. I count myself lucky to have no idea about the drama and stuff that goes on, but to know enough about it to exit and build. So whoever you happen to be and what you happen to represent, Michael Saylor I couldn't give a singular fugg about the entire damned thing. Nostr on the other hand is freaking awesome! I absolutely love all the geeks, dweebs, dorks, miscreants and antidisestablishmentarianism types. Yall keep doing you, I am in for it. Much Love!

Whole-istic Pet Wellness with Vet Jeff Feinman: BEAM, Fresh Food, Terrain Theory & Natural Healing On the Space Tomatoes podcast, hosts Havok and LX interview veterinarian and whole-istic educator Jeff Feinman about a holistic approach to pet wellness centered on BEAM (behavior, energy, appetite, and mood) and individualized “scientific wellness” rather than symptom-focused medicine. Feinman shares his background, discusses helping pets by optimizing vitality through fresh food, supplements that support rather than suppress, and aligning with nature, including red light therapy. They talk through real examples involving a feral cat with respiratory and urinary issues, flea concerns, and when to intervene versus reduce stress, as well as experiences with natural remedies like colloidal silver. The conversation covers terrain theory versus germ theory, vaccine overuse, compassionate end-of-life care, and Feinman’s Whole-istic Actions platform and book Path to Pet Wellness.
