One of my neighbors threw a block party today. Kids playing in the street, burgers, lawn chairs… It was a reminder how nice it is to get away from the noise online and just connect with neighbors.

My brain works at about 60% capacity if I do not work out in the morning.

Carnivore day 5. I’m not giving up before the end of September but I’m definitely feeling suboptimal. Mentally energized but physically exhausted. Carb/sugar cravings were only significant on day 1. Slept a little better and woke up less tired today. Onward.

First teaser for my documentary, Build on Bitcoin. 5 weeks into post production, still a long ways to go but here’s a little peek into the film. I can’t say we’re going to win an Oscar but I can tell you it’s going to be unlike any bitcoin documentary out there.

What happens when our obsession with building the “perfect protocol” blinds us to the real problems users want solved? It's time to slay some s...

My main takeaway is that 99.9% of people don’t care about the “tech.” Nobody knows what a protocol is and why it matters… Therefore the entrepreneur’s job is to use Nostr as a tool to bring real value and solve problems for people rather than conform to the protocol at all costs. I learned something similar when interviewing the guys at @npub1a0gc...dw7g - they found a gap in the market and simply solved restaurants’ problems, reinforcing their products/services with bitcoin/nostr rather than make them the center of the business itself. Bullish on @Satlantis: Social Events and Nostr nonetheless. Svetski makes some very good points here and this will certainly trigger the hardcore Nostr users 👌

The reason why filmmaking, storytelling or even podcasting are powerful tools is not because they can logically explain something. It is because they can make you feel something.

Day 3 on the carnivore diet- slept poorly and woke up quite tired. Found out I’m technically not doing it fully by drinking coffee but I don’t care, I am not giving up coffee, or nicotine for that matter.

The creative journey in one chart.

15 mile ride to start the week. Let’s get after it relentlessly.

Day 1 of carnivore all I can tell you is that I definitely have a sugar/carb addiction. Cravings have been real. Questioning why I signed up for this for no reason other than to try it.

Day 1 committed to a month of carnivore diet. Let’s see how this goes. I’ve heard great things.

Two podcasts today. Murphy bed/podcast backdrop is an upgrade.

Movement is medicine.
