Been changing up my workout strategy to mirror a routine that uses a lot of the exercises in this video. Its more interesting to workout 5-6 days a week where everyday is something different and focuses on flexibility, compound exercises, and longevity. I don't follow this routine exactly but implement different parts on different days and its become easier to get up and get moving. I also think theres something to using concentrated red light. I've been using a @Chroma ๐Ÿ”ฅ Iron Forge for 4 min every morning as part of my wakeup routine and its like taking a shot of espresso.

I've been using an excel spreadsheet to track my personal finances for the last 5-6years and thanks to Cursor and nostr that is going by the wayside. This weekend I built the baseline for a personal finances tracking application that puts all my data into replaceable event kinds and stores them on a self hosted NIP42 auth with npub whitelisted relay. All data encrypted with NIP44. I built an android app and a Linux .deb app that both retrieve the data from the relay and present it to me and let me edit and add to it on either platform. Excel is great but you're trapped by Microsoft and stuck to a computer (also microsoft office tools are now another fucking subscription) and the Mint type tools don't handle bitcoin transactions and tracking. Im sick of having 80 fucking apps just to track my finances and I'm sick of letting companies mine my financial data to sell me ads. Nostr, AI, and self hosting is the future and the future is now. This shit is magical.

I've been working on an application that uses nostr at its core called Cypher Log. It's not another social media site but rather a re-envisioned way to help manage all the complexities and tasks associated with running a home and storing information about your life. The goal of the site is to help track the more innocuous things that always get forgotten or lost. It stores info of when you bought furniture/applianaces/things and the documents associated with them, car maintenance and information, companies and services you use but put the contact details on sticky note you can't find, pet information and vet visit info, tracking warranties on products you bought, and planning/tracking small home DIY projects. I'm looking for feedback if anyone is interested in trying it out. Everything is open source and its encouraged to run your own relay and blossom server to host the data for privacy reasons but if you choose to host the data on public relays everything is NIP44 encrypted so no one can read your intimate details. Pdf/image uploads require a blossom server and do not guarantee privacy unless the server is personal. Access all your information on any device through a browser or a PWA that works pretty well (atleast on android, I dont have an iphone). I think it may even be possible to connect an open claw agent via a NIP26 delegatee key that can manage and add new data to the site without having to do it yourself. Which is batshit crazy and awesome and an avenue i may pursue.

One thing I never see from the youtube "prepper" community is an emphasis on having your own tools. Being able to build and fix things yourself is one of the most important life skills to have. Basic power, woodworking, plumbing and electrical tools along with books and general knowledge on those subjects will pay unbelievable dividends. After growing up on a working farm that made barely enough money to get by most years, it's hard to emphasize how important basic DIY/fix-it skills are.
