Great to see this quarter cow contest by CrowdHealth. I hope I win, it'd be great to have that much meat stocked up in our freezer. Hmmnn - How long does it take the average family to get through that much meat? #CrowdHealth #grownostr #steaks View quoted note →

Spent some time this weekend working on my

Looking forward to seeing the movie Dirty Coin. Thanks to @Desi who took time at TABConf2023 to tell me about it. I just contributed via Geyser fund. Check it out...

For the Northeastern US ski community, the Professional Ski Instructors of America (PSIA) is having some preseason indoor courses in October at Liberty Mountain Resort (South Eastern PA) and Attitash Mountain Resort (NH). Unfortunately I can't attend (prior plans), but they look good (Rollerblade skate to ski, movement analysis and more!!!) You do NOT have to be a professional ski instructor to attend (there is a discount if you are though). Check it out at:

A Woody Allen film has been nominated for the first time for the Prometheus Hall of Fame. Can you guess which one? Take a look at the Libertarian Futurist Society Blog to read about all the nominations so far:

Went to Bitcoin Jawn meetup in Philly Monday night. Traffic was horrible, but a great group of people!!! Learned a lot from @ZEUS and CardCoins (haven't found you on NOSTR yet) who was kind enough to sponsor the event. Find your own local meetup. Well worth the time.

Waitlist cleared and I am officially registered for the PSIA MiniAcademy in Killington this December. Can't wait to be skiing with some of the best ski instructors in the country. I don't think we have a lot of skiiers yet on NOSTR, and even fewer ski instructors, but if you are one and you are reading this, come join me in Vermont and let's ski together!!! #alpine #skiing #killington #grownostr #psia

My group at OpenText is hiring. If you are interested (or know someone who would be a good fit), please reach out to me... https://careers.opentext.com/job-invite/37105/ #hiring #opentext #cloud #jobstr

Saw some deer hanging out in the field in my neighborhood as I was leaving the gym. Of course by the time I got the phone out to snap a picture they were already heading for the woods. Still a pleasant view to start the day!!! #grownostr #nature #deer

In downtown Philadelphia for a meeting yesterday - looking out the window at Independence Hall, national Constitution center and even the Benjamin Franklin bridge. Amazing so much history so close!!!

I’m now running two new services on my Start9 StartOS server. No monthly fee required and totally private. 1. Stable Diffusion - text-to-image AI, similar to Midjourney 2. FreeGPT - chat AI, similar to ChatGPT Both are self-hosted and uncensored, running privately on my own server #grownostr #ai #startos #chatgpt

Registration opened for the December PSIA Alpine Mini Academy at Killington at 9am this morning. The instructors are tops in the country - members of the PSIA Alpine National Team. It's a great way to get my CEUs, prepare for the season, get some valuable feedback, and have fun! Registration started at 9am, I tried for an hour - from 9:30 to 10:30 but PSIA had computer issues and I couldn't get the site to work to get registered. At 10:30, I gave up and called, but the event was already sold out. I'm on the wait list - and frustrated. #grownostr #alpine #psia #killington

Later this morning I saw this!!! A ski area coming back to life in Pennsylvania

Not particularly close to me, so not a great bet for me to ski there soon, but happy to have more ski areas and more skiers!!! #grownostr #skiing #alpine #skistr

Going through my TABConf2023 notes. Wow! What a great conference with amazing people. I handed out a bunch of business cards, got a couple back and tried to take notes to remind me of all the people I met. I've been reaching out to folks that I met to follow through on things I told them I'd ask them about or send to them or just to stay in touch. If we met in Atlanta and you haven't heard from me yet, please do reach out so we can connect 'in the real world'. #bitcoin #tabconf #tabconf2023 #networking
