Weekend with old friends I haven't seen in years... Sleep-deprived but soul-replenished 🙂

I'm starting to notice just how much the pace of public intellectual life seems to slow down in the summer... My RSS and podcast feeds dry up, OSS projects don't get updates, Substacks go fallow, etc...
Everyone seems to be kicking it at the beach, which is nice, but I'm still stuck here hustling through major life changes. I guess, maybe next summer? 🤷
Just a reminder, heavily armed, poorly trained masked agents of the State are still out in force on US streets killing with impunity.

Nostr's tiny, but it's one of the few spaces that feels genuinely innovative. I've never found myself excited for new software releases since... IDK, the 00's?
In a world where everything's a grift, this feels real, even if it's just us ~40 weirdos.
Yes, domain centralization is a problem here, but this is also clearly a problem of centralization of communication around X. For individuals interacting with institutions, there is no "going through channels" anymore. It's "tag them on X."
It's frustratingly getting to the point where "if you're not on X do you even exist bro??"
