A view (that I also hold): Gold is very close to its peak before the distribution trade into Bitcoin goes ahead

Blue Yeti Microphone seems to be broken Can’t get it to regularly show up on Riverside when recording podcasts Thinks it’s the USB hole that’s faulty Time to get a new one Anyone got a fave Mic they recommend? #asknostr

GM One of the biggest challenges I have as a parent is to be present I know these moments will be distant memories, the chaos of 3 young kids, ups, downs, and all around, will be looked back upon as EPIC There’s no question of my role I am needed Constantly During the day At night Always It’s exhausting, but awesome, filled with different challenges, triggers, tasks, problems, emotions, relationships, and it’s life I wouldn’t want it any other way So trying my best to breathe, slow down, savour the moment, and proceed Shout out to all the parents out there, learning by doing, and navigating as best they can 🙏🏻

Got @Marks joining the podcast in 24 hours As a user of @Maple AI I can't wait to learn about his journey to today Any questions for him friends?

GM The allure of status quo socials is very hard to totally ignore as a podcaster Since circa October I’ve been Nostr and RSS only It’s been awesome I’ve hardly been on IG, YT, X etc But given I am already producing the podcasts, it’s something that pops up “why not just post the full episodes on there, and leave it at that?” It’s like an addiction The promise of more attention, eyeballs, potential “growth” But for what? At what cost? For who? A smaller “audience” of far higher quality is arguably of much more value It’s a moment in which one has to get really clear on their “why” What am I building? Where do i see it going? How does it interplay with the wider self-image vision I’ve set? In this case, as I take a moment, I come back to capital allocation, and the desire to avoid miss-allocation Adding your attention, content, and energy to the digital monopoly surveillance capitalist system we’ve grown accustomed to, is long-term fraught with counter-party risk You’re leasing digital real estate with very little security It’s only a matter of time before the centralised dons of digital kick me off So why bother? For some potential audience that don’t hold the same values as me? Niche is better With Nostr and RSS its niche niche niche Maybe too niche, such that “growth” is negligible But I get to keep it Forever Providing the technology survives and I manage my keys properly What a time to be trying something new! Enjoy your week friends 🙏🏻

I often bump into the idea of "building on the shoulders of giants", which in this instance, the problem of private communication, once again I am reminded of how grateful we must be to be building today Great insights from npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc Episode now live on RSS and Nostr

Started Anil Patel’s “Treasury of Michael Saylor” yday Great forward by Preston Pysh detailing his view of the MSTR mechanics, from an engineering perspective, as a financial transmission It’s a unique equity to value that’s for sure Might well be a good time to buy given the MNAV has flattened 🧐
