Hey @bob I both love and hate that you started the first LN ad network. I guess it had to happen eventually. Could you add some kind “market rate” for sending satograms? It’s getting annoying seeing all these 1 and 2 sat keysend payments in my tx list.
Just got paid for my first bounty on Stakwork. Looove these kyc free Sats.

Glad my employer doesn’t force me to stand outside and do yoga in the morning. The employees looked embarrassed as hell when I walked by.


Twitter is down right now but there’s no way to tell everyone on Twitter to switch to #nostr 😭😭😭

It hurts to say but tether on trim may just be the best thing that ever happens for #bitcoin adoption.
I hear people taking shit on Pacific Bitcoin for not being technical enough, but I’ve never seen a more diverse crowd at a conference. It’s wild. There’s a table of 3 women in their 60s next to me… at a bitcoin conference. I also see a ton of couples here together. This is how Bitcoin scales adoption.
Just got my @Tallowed and Free order that I bought with #lightning got a free chapstick too. :D


If #nostr ends up beating out Block/TBDs #web5 initiative, it will remove any hesitations I have about large centralized tech being able to overpower truly decentralized, grassroots, movements.
#FiatRuinsEverything
In the last few years, California has added a new grade to public schools called TK, or transitional kindergarten. Each year, they have also been lowering the minimum age for children to attend. Last year, my eldest daughter became eligible for TK, so we took her out of her in-home daycare, located in our neighborhood, and enrolled her in public school. It's amazing! She loves her new friends and school, and we get to save $1500 per month. Win-win!
However, she also loved her old friends, and her previous daycare was a quick bike ride away. Now, we have to drive farther and sit in traffic to drop her off at "free" school. We also have to pay $500 per month for after-school care on campus. It's starting to feel less free now.
Part 2 of the story is about my second, younger daughter. She is 3 years old and attending preschool in our neighborhood, which is within walking distance. Again, we're paying $1500 per month, but next year she'll be eligible for TK, so more "free" school is on the horizon.
Recently, her preschool sent out an email asking parents for help in getting new students. At first, I was skeptical and thought it was just another tactic to get more money from parents. But a point they made completely flipped my thinking on its head: "the State of California began to offer 'free' public education to four- and five-year-olds, thus further impacting private education."
I was blinded by "free" this whole time and didn't realize that the public school system is actually contributing to the degradation of local communities. Here's an example of how it happens: "free" school now encompasses your child's age bracket, so you enroll. As a result, local private daycares and preschools see less attendance each year, which leads to price increases due to lower income and the inability to hire good educators. Parents become frustrated with low quality and high-priced private daycare, so they leave. As a result, they travel farther and pay more for quality care for their children. Eventually, the government notices this and steps in to "help" by reducing the age limit for public education. The vicious cycle repeats.
Knowing what I know now, I think I'll keep my child in preschool for an extra year or two. She has great (local) friends and is learning so much about STEM and God, which is very important to us. In the end I think this comes from decades of #fiat mentality that we don’t even recognize we have. As Americans, and beyond, we need to wake up and start recognizing and taking action to keep our local communities sustainable.
Gonna tell my kids this was congress. #fiat 

Life gets so much better when you’ve gotten rid of yarn and just use npm on all your projects.
I just picked up Nostrnauts.com, what to build?

Any #lightning wallet suggestions for sending keysend payments specifically with a message?
Does anyone one else remember those few years where people stopped smoking cigarettes but vaping hadn’t begun yet? Good times.
Seeing a lot of duplicate notes on #Damus lately. Anybody else getting this?
Nice little hack for getting a little inbound liquidity to your #lightning node.
1. Login or create a stacker news account.
2. From your node, connect and open a channel to stacker news node. (Node ID is in the footer of their website)
3. From your stacker account creat a deposit invoice for some amount of sats.
4. Pay the invoice from your node.
Done! Now you have a channel with Sats on both sides of the channel but you still have control over it all.
