It's not about building something new, but returning to what the internet originally offered before corporations optimized the soul out of it. npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra Hahaha. What I didn’t disclose was the 16 other things I bought npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra lol.

Meet Confer. End to end encrypted. npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra Time is not refundable. Be intentional with it. npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra https://image.nostr.build/99ccb016f9b47f111fc0919eade41710cd024809e4260924a4297db8e66247df.jpg npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra To avoid criticism, say nothing, do nothing, be nothing! npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra 🤔 I see your point. npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra What is that? npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra True npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra A few years ago, prediction markets were a niche corner of the internet. Now the biggest financial platforms are diving in and everyone's acting like it’s pure discovery. npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra https://image.nostr.build/8a17aef3f3b4bb92d2d1185d513370e56ab465eb1be7c3724c217c47ba63bb25.jpg npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra I was curious and so I just did it. I npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra In ten years, you’ll be able to tell who’s still real because they’re the only ones who still sound a little bit wrong. So do yourself a favor today…don't clean up your thoughts too much. If it feels a little messy or a little too “you," keep it that way. npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra Good point npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra 100 npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra funny how we spend so much time staring at glass screens trying to find "connection" when the most real thing you'll do today is feel the sun on your face or hear the sound of your own breath. npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra Pretty cool. I dig it the concept. npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra Support your local Dev npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra 💯 npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra Lol npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra Botdoxxing (n.) — the use of AI chat logs, prompts, and stored conversations as leverage for extortion. The threat, the exposure, or the sale of what you told a machine in confidence. Doxxing’s older cousin, with better data and worse intentions. npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra 🤣 haha npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra Contentment is a discipline not a reward. You build it now or you never build it. The guy waiting for the raise, the move, the win, is training himself to never be satisfied. The guy grateful at the workbench in the garage already has the thing everyone else is chasing npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra Joy is upstream of conditions, not downstream. The man who finds it in a hard season keeps it in an easy one. The man who waits for the easy season never arrives npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra Averages hide what is actually happening. Bezos walks into a bar and on average everyone is a billionaire. npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra When I ask how the country is doing, I am asking how those households are doing. npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra The S&P is at an all time high. Consumer sentiment is at an all time low. npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra I’ll be waiting for the missing piece! npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra Pain refines. npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra Ok. Let me clarify. Billionaires built on state capture are the only dangerous minority npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra 💯 npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra BILLIONAIRES ARE THE ONLY npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra 🎯 npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra You’re not trapped in a simulation. You’re subscribed to one. npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra Precisely npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra Adams said it straight: made only for a moral and religious people, wholly inadequate to the government of any other. npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra Waiting for iOS. Lol. npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra Meanwhile… ya, things are going well in clown world npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra In 2006 the National Association for Sport and Physical Education issued a position statement saying dodgeball “is not an appropriate activity for k-12 school physical education programs”, with the argument being that the slower, less athletic kids get picked off first, which is supposedly the opposite of who should be sitting out. npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra Nothing profound today. Just work and people I love. npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra Perfect. He’s where he needs to be then npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra https://image.nostr.build/2adb8839dfa4503dc321ec767e9c52136493ab095bf06eee1bd84dce4867e2d4.jpg npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra Thanks npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra For “The Record” npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra Easter egg remix if anyone is paying attention npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra Tag all the Nostr users in this song in the comment section and let them know we’re singing about em! We’re singing about Bitcoin! npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra I bet it runs into a bunker under that mountain behind it! npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra Soft friends, soft food, soft money. Soft man. Math. npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra 🤙🏼 npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra Lol. No. The real answer is that AI data centers are buying up all the NAND chips that SSDs are made from. Manufacturers make way more money selling to Google and Microsoft than to us, so consumer SSDs get the scraps and the price goes up. npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra Tough sleddin these days bro! Fkng govt tariffs npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra Gm cat formerly know as Karnage! Lol npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra Or do you prefer this version? npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra It’s your bday bro? npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra What do Satoshi, Julian Assange, Edward Snowden, Michael Saylor, Odell, Lyn Alden, and many, many others have in common with a country song? npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra I agree. 💯% npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra https://image.nostr.build/9e4e3895982021b397c3b00f1747d795af948103b0cff2148315c83c2b22a8c6.jpg npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra I want to tell you a story. It might help with where we are. npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra “Hantavirus” on a cruise ship gets wall to wall coverage. npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra Banks create money by typing two ledger entries. A loan asset and a deposit liability appear at the same instant. Nothing was transferred from a saver. The Bank of England admitted this in 2014. Roughly four fifths of dollars in circulation were spoken into existence this way. It spends like money. By the older test it is not money. Real money is a bearer asset with no counterparty. A deposit is a claim on a thing the bank has already lent out many times over. Mises called it fiduciary media. The plain word is fraud. npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra This is an example of how the minds of Nostr stay innovative and push us into the next realm of possibilities npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra Once you truly understand bitcoin, the lightbulb comes on! npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra We’ve stopped relating with one another and started transacting. Every conversation has become a negotiation. Every interaction a quiet quid pro quo. Talking to people can feel like swiping a card at an ATM. npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra Gm npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra The hardest part of any job is being nice to stupid people. npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra Interesting. I’ll take a look npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra This is the way npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra We’ve stopped reading carefully and we’ve stopped speaking plainly, and you can feel what that’s costing us. The good news is both are skills, and skills come back the moment you start using them again. npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra True. I’ve had this experience as well npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra When you find yourself in a confrontation and they become emotional or sarcastic, getting calmer actually strengthens your position. npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra Before anything else. You keep applying a standard of evidence and reason as if those tools are self evidently reliable. But on your own worldview they aren’t. Your brain is neurons shaped by survival pressure not truth. Your reason is a biological process not a truth tracker. You have no basis to set any evidentiary standard at all. Every objection you’ve raised presupposes logic, evidence, and intelligibility. You’ve given none of those a foundation. npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra The system is working exactly as designed. Sick people are the product. Wellness is the threat. npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra That’s a lot packed in there so let me focus on what matters. npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra You’re right that you didn’t say fragile. MOID did. I’ll own that mix up. npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra Fair. Let me be direct. npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra 🫡. It’s a beautiful thing npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra Those are not the same category of command and you know it if you read the context honestly. You can’t take a couple of verses out of context and say, see there’s a contradiction. I will describe it again if you need me to… npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra Good question. Named for God. Not commanded by God. Every example you just thought of has a clear biblical standard it violated. Thou shalt not murder is not ambiguous. npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra This is what an honest conversation looks like. @npub1ghc…ygat @npub1he5…g5d3 and I disagree fundamentally and that’s fine. This is exactly the kind of exchange we need more of. We have more in common than most want to admit. npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra That’s not the conclusion at all. The conclusion is that your own reasoning tools require a foundation your worldview can’t provide. That’s not nothing matters. That’s the opposite. It’s that things matter so fundamentally that you can’t stop acting like they do even when your worldview tells you they don’t. npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra Because I care about this topic. Not because I like to argue, but because we fail to do this well in society. npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra We put the obligation on each other? So obligation is just mutual agreement? Which means any group that agrees among themselves has valid obligations. The predator network that agrees among themselves has obligations too. You’ve just described every criminal organization in history as a legitimate moral framework. npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra Morality is made up by man? You’ve said it clearly now. So the abolitionists made it up. The civil rights movement made it up. Anyone who ever called anything unjust was just making it up. You don’t actually live that way and you know it. npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra So nothing obligates anyone. You just said it. That means the predator who hasn’t evolved your sensibilities isn’t wrong. He’s just behind the curve. And if a society evolves in the other direction, which history shows is possible, they aren’t wrong either. They just went a different way. npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra Being sanctified daily by the Lord. npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra Watch what people demand evidence for and what they accept on sight. That tells you who they trust, not what they know. npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu Contra That passage is Moses commanding the Israelites after the Midianites led Israel into idolatry and caused a plague that killed 24,000 Israelites. It’s a specific military judgment in a specific historical context. Not a universal command. Context isn’t a deflection. It’s basic hermeneutics. You wouldn’t read a modern rules of engagement document and conclude the author endorses killing civilians in grocery stores.
