Hillsdale College has some amazing online courses available for free. Lectures are about 30 minutes. A tremendous resource.

Excellent discussion between @ODELL and @miljan about #primal. After having been zap-strated by Apple on Damus, up and running with #primal. It rocks. 🙏

Each stage has relevant actors and contributors. Bitcoin Talk just relegated itself to insignificance. #Nostr is the future.

Messing around with #primal. Kinda cool!

Regulation by enforcement is laziness, symptomatic of a system that is entering decadence. But the rest of the world continues moving forward with purpose. The US must do better.

So, I tried talking about Nostr at Thanksgiving dinner. I think everyone was relieved it wasn’t Bitcoin. I have some work to do on messaging….

Interesting write up from CME Group, pumping institutional interest. https://www.cmegroup.com/newsletters/excell-with-options-report-from-rich-excell/excell-with-options-report-from-rich-excell-2023-11-21.html?utm_source=marketing_cloud&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=excell_with_options&utm_kxconfid=vpwpdpbbo

“Laissez faire means: let the individual citizen, the much talked-about common man, choose and act and do not force him to yield to a dictator.” - von Mises. #truth

Trying to use Nostr more or spend less time using “the other one.” Once you get the hang of it, it’s a much better, more focused experience….not to mention the benefits of being part of a new and better ecosystem. Takes some practice and patience, but it’s worth it.

There are two very basic actions that, as you consider them, seemingly become acts of resistance - signing a bitcoin transaction and using Nostr. You don’t expect to get a buzz from something as simple as opting to post on one social media site vice another, but when you consider these tiny acts of noncompliance, well the buzz gathers a bit of sting. I know there are a lot of people out there predisposed to enjoying that buzz, people who just want to claw back a little bit of themselves back from the Borg.
