Cricky, almost passed out. There’s never a convenient moment to wrap up a quantum physics discussion in the sauna!

Was going to create an open-source Nostr AI agent that can connect to a local Ollama model using Python, but has this been built already?

Bad news is some of our bees are swarming and looking for a new home. The good news is they’ve found the empty hive next door. Fingers crossed. image

Comparison of tic-bite treatment in El Salvador (for myself, a month ago) and UK (my daughter, @Ninimonk05, today): UK - Rang 111 and described symptoms, told specialist would ring back - ⁠Rang 111 again the next day as no call back received, referred to hospital (not nearest one) - ⁠111 specialist rang back but said advice no longer needed as we had now already been referred - ⁠Drove 45-minutes to the hospital - ⁠Gave details to reception of symptoms and our details - ⁠Then gave same symptom details to nurse in reception area - ⁠Moved to paediatrics, and gave same details to nurse there - ⁠An hour or so later spoke to doctor - ⁠He went to go and get a second opinion and we were given prescription - ⁠Went to pharmacy in the hospital who took our details and printed off a label - ⁠Collected drugs from desk next door (with a wait time of over 2 hours) Summary: 10 healthcare professionals (excluding the nice volunteer chap who brought us hot chocolates), 4.5 hours, 1.5 hours travel El Salvador (“3rd world country”) - Sent doctor WhatsApp message of the bite to ask to ask if need to see him (he asked to go straight in) - ⁠At the local clinic 10-minute drive away, spoke to nurse who took details and took blood pressure, weight etc. and set me up on the system - ⁠Went straight through to the doctor for an unrushed appointment - ⁠Walked next door to collect prescription with the doctor Summary: 3-4 healthcare professionals, under 1 hour, 0.5-hours travel Not complaining, I am grateful for care received in both locations, but one seems a lot less efficient than the other and unsustainable.
